Motorsport Widget for Dashboard?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a Dashboard Widget to check latest Motorsport results, qualifying times etc.
I know there are some for F1 but I want Motor GP, World and British Superbikes...... Motorbikes really! I don't mind if it does F1 and rallying etc tho.
I'd also like it to have a brief story with each headline so I don't have to click each story and have safari fire up to see if I want to read it or not.
Am I asking too much?
Thanks in advance guys and gals.
TC

Hi Pete, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I wonder if an RSS Reader Widget wouldn't work for you...

Or make your own...

How do I download a widget for Dashboard?

Trying to download a widget for Dashboard, every time I click on the download button associated with the widget it takes me back to the MAC App Store? Have tried on several widgets, how can I get it to download??

Hi:
There is some sort of "glitch." Many of have experienced the same problem. The problem has been reported and, hopefully, will be fixed soon.
It is not you!

Download Widgets for Dashboard right from AppStore

I think that it could be great that you can download widgets for dashboard right from the App Store on Mac OS X.
With this great feature Apple will boost the popularity of widgets because right now if you want to install a widget you need to download it, unzip it and then install it another time, then you will see the keep it advice or remove.
I love widgets and Apple need to do more about them, also by having a new section in the App Store only for Widgets there will be developers who will build better widgets and also you could pay for great widgets.
I will send this suggestion to the suggestion email from Apple.

rbtwrld,
Sounds like a good idea!
Instead of sending an email, try using Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback.

IPhone Stats Widget for Dashboard

Looking for a widget for the dashboard that tells stats of your connected iPhone. I couldn't find it. Quick info like battery percentage, signal strength, charge cycles, time use, etc.
BTW I couldn't find a section in the forums for Dashboard...really?

iStat Pro or ministat2 - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

His there a widget for dashboard which i can use to turn the infrared functionality for my apple remote on and off quickly?

As many of you i suppose, i have a universal dock and a macbook pro.
Now because this dock and my MBP are often in the same room and both react to the remote, it would be handy if there was a widget which i could use to temporarily turn of my infrared port of the macbook, when i want to use my remote for the dock only.
If i only want to use the remote for my macbook it's simple, i just unplug my iphone, but if i want to do the opposite, use it only for my dock while working on the computer i have to complete several steps in the system preferences before i can get what i want.
So is there an easy way (i was thinking a widget in the dashboard) to get around this?
thx in advance for your thoughts!

Unfortunetally, No and no. Apple TV is a closed API so developers are right now unable to create an app that is very compatible to connect to Apple TV. There is also no remote app on the Mac App Store.
Let me know if this solves your questions or if you have any others,
Thanks,
Allen

TV Guide widget for dashboard?

Im trying to find a widget that will show full TV schedules. Anyone know one for the U.S.?

You can search for widgets at VersionTracker or MacUpdate and at Apple's Widget downloads site.

My Yahoo widget for dashboard

The "My Yahoo" widget on my dashboard has stopped working. In the purple bar that used to show "my latest headlines" it now just stays on "now loading". Also, my new mail is not indicated. The "search" to yahoo works. Any advise? I did some searching and discovered the Yahoo Widget Engine, but understand that this runs on Konfabulator and not on Dashboard. I removed the My Yahoo widget/preferemces and downloaded it again from:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/news/myyahoo.html
It still does no work. Any information would be appreciated.

Can you download the widget directly from the developer's website?

Widget for dashboard won't download

From the dashboard I try to download a widget. Whatever widget I choose, I end up in http://www.apple.com/downloads/. At the end of the page there is a link to dasboard widgets and I can choose a widget again. But again when I click download: I get back to http://www.apple.com/downloads/.
How to download a widget?

Can you download the widget directly from the developer's website?

Hi, I'm trying to download widgets for dashboard. Seems every widget I try either says it can't find the server or says it can't install because its from an unknown developer. It's on the apple site so I'm a little confused. I've tried like 15.

So does anyone know or have the same issue. It seems a little odd.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
When you download a widget, you are getting a message telling you that it's not from an identified developer. This message is caused by Gatekeeper > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US You can fix this issue by two ways:
1. Right-click the widget and choose "Open".
2. Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, and tick "Anywhere" under "Allow applications downloaded from"

Digital Clock Widget for OS X

Hi, I've just bought a Mac Air (OS X 10.8). Does anyone know of any digital world clock widgets for dashboard? I'd like something similar to the digital clock available on my iphone where I can show the time and date of various countries around the world simultaneously.
I've searched for hours and cant find many digital clock widgets at all. Can anyone help?
Thanks

The links don't allow to download anymore, at least not from Firefox and I cannot spend all my times juggling between three web browsers because now web development is becoming browser-targeted. I am just getting a page describing the applications. Links either go to a widget browser or to Apple's page describing the Mac computer. Moreover, the Mac page somehow disables keyboard shortcut for Back in Firefox, which is an additional unnecessary annoyance. I needed a digital clock widget to work around the fact that the time displayed in the upper right corner of the screen is in a too small font for me to read comfortably, and there is no way to enlarge the font. Seems I have to take the plunge and write myself a small application, quite bad that something so basic is not out of the box and download links are always broken or outdated.

Is it possible for widgets in dashboard to float over other windows?

I'm trying to assess features in Mavericks in comparison to Snow Leopard (the OS I'm most familiar with). I usually read the Missing Manual for the new OSes, but haven't gotten to all areas yet - it's a big book!
Is it possible for widgets in dashboard to float over other windows?
I want to be able to see the calculator widget for example while I'm also working in a Bills template document in Word, or over my back account page while viewing in Safari. Or look at words in Thesaurus while viewing a document I'm writing in Word, or even an email in Mail. In OS 10.6 widgets on the dashboard float above the other windows, but I can see them both at the same time. It looks like Dashboard is all by itself in Mavericks. Is this the case and the only way to view widgets now, is by themselves in their own isolated environment? Any work around?
Thanks.

You can assign a "hot corner" with System preferences > Mission Control > Hot corners to bring up your dashboard anytime you want quickly by moving the mouse to the corner. Works really well.

No search feature for Dashboard widgets?

In Dashboard, when you click the Manage Widgets button at the bottom and then you click More Widgets in the Manage Widgets window, you are taken to Apples' official Dashboard Widgets web page at http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard.
At the bottom of the page, it says there are "3901 Dashboard Widgets" available. But oddly, there seems to be no search feature for the widgets.
There's a Widget Browser where you can drill down by category, but sometimes it's just easier to search for what you want.
There's a search field at the very top of the page in the navigation bar (just as there's one for this page, but that searches the whole Apple site, not just the widgets.
Is there a way to do a text search for Dashboard widgets?

I took a look and agree that there doesn't seem to be a way so you aren't just blind...unless we both are
The only thing I noticed is since all the widgits seem to reside in the same directory you could do a google search a la
"widget I want site:http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/"
I suppose apple thinks most people don't commonly associate widgets by there actual name so categories are easier but it seems trivial just to throw in a search function with a nice little preview of each widget.
Maybe we just didn't look deep enough.

Searching For Dashboard Widgets

Hi,
How do you search for Dashboard Widgets on Apple's website? Since they changed the site this year, I've found it very hard to find widgets which I know for a fact are listed on the site. For example, if I type into the Search bar in the top-right corner "tomatometer", I get no results. The only way I can see of finding the Tomatometer widget on Apple.com is to manually browse through the Widget Browser.
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

Easy enough to find. They are here.

Looking for Dashboard Widget -4- Yahoo Notepad

Hello all,
has anyone found a widget for Yahoo! notepad that is compatible w/ Dashboard? They have this widget available w/ Yahoo (Konfabulator) Widgets, but I'd prefer not having to install Konfabulator.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Why dont you use apple's standard calculator? Just put calc into the spotlight and it will appear. If its just the standard claculator, go into "view" and you will have the option to use it scientifically. Just keep it in your dock. Good Luck.
