What is Mac Keeper and is it safe?
I had a Mac Keeper pop up after owning my Mac for about 6 months. Is it legitimate and safe?
Many users will see references to an application called MacKeeper on various web sites and via pop-ups on their browser. Not only is it expensive for what it purports to do (freeware applications that do the same or more are readily available), it can sometimes install itself without the user realising it, and it can be very tricky to get rid of.
MacKeeper can be regarded as highly invasive malware* that can de-stablize your operating system. It is unethically marketed by a company called Zeobit and a rip-off.
Further opinion on it and how to uninstall MacKeeper malware can be read here:
http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
Do NOT download or use the ‘MacKeeper uninstaller’ from the Zeobit site, as this will cause even more damage to your operating system.
This is also worth reading:

Equally phoney was iAntivirus:
http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=341
until it was purchased recently (May 2012) by Symantic (makers of Norton anti-virus which does not work well with Apple OS X). Even after having tinkered with it, iAntivirus still fails to do the job properly and cannot be recommended.
There are no viruses that can affect Apple OS X and there is therefore no reason to run anti-virus software on a Mac, but a Mac, like all computers, can transmit viruses and malware to other users particularly those running Windows. Note, however, that Trojans are another matter and can represent a genuine threat, an example of which was the recent 'Flashback Trojan' which you can read more about here:

I have installed mac keeper and it has initially found numerous issues? with my Mac. What can I do with the existing software to check that my mac is running at its optimum and get rid of these issues.
By uninstalling mackeeper. That software is garbage and will cause more problems then good. Get rid of it immediately.

Hi,
I want to rebuild my g/f's lost itunes as a surprise. What is the easiest and stealthiest way to buy tracks via my macbook for her itunes? To be clear I don't want to buy her vouchers I want to buy the songs myself. I don't have access to her itunes account and to ask would give the game away. I don't want to own or listen to the songs myself but I struggle to think of an approach that doesn't involve some sort of piracy.
She currently has zero tracks having lost them all so the only thing I can think of is starting an entirely new account in her name and filling it and then giving it to her on a hard drive. Is this the best way to go about it?
Many thanks,
AndrewThere is no really good way to do what you want. Any tracks you purchase via your own iTunes Store account are for your personal use, tied to your iTunes Store account, and can't be given to anyone else. If you don't want to gift the tracks to her and can't access her iTunes Store account, the only option other than creating her a completely new iTunes Store account (which will require a new email address for her) is to buy the CDs those tracks are on.

Mac keeper and tune up my mac keep popping up
i never installed mac keeper or tune up my mac and yet they keep appearing in my tabs, sometimes i'll be on a website and suddenly it will just change to the mac keeper site when I'm in the middle of something
You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select

You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

Unfortunately this discussion forum has changed and become confusing indeed. It wanted me to put my entire question in a Subject box which wasn't labeled as such, and I find this strange. Especially since now it tells me to repeat my question in this box, so here goes.
Has anyone here used a program called 'Cookie' that is supposed to protect our private information from sites which could retrieve it when we surf the Net. If so, do you consider the program worth buying?If you are referring to Cookie from SweetP Productions, I have tried it and not found it to work reliably, so I cannot recommend it. I've had the best results with the same company's free Safari Cookies, though it's not perfect (none of the cookie managers are, unfortunately):

FCE HD(Preferably 3.5), how do you like, and is it worth buying?
Hi Everyone. I am seriously thinking about buying a Macbook and Final Cut Express 3.5, but I need some insider's opinions before I seal the deal. How do you like FCE? Do you feel like your getting as much Bang for your Buck as possible? Or is it simply just a reasonably priced software package? How do you like the selection of transitions, filters, and LiveType Options? Do you feel that there are enough choices of transitions, filters, LT Options? Are there enough custimizable options to give your project a personal touch? Overall, how do you like FCE as a whole? Also, please feel free to elaborate or further explain yourself in any way, shape, or form. I would especially appreciate it if someone would give there personal opinion of the selection of Transitions, Filters, and LiveType options(as you can see the amount of transitions, filters, etc. are a major concern to me, as I feel that I can edit alot better with a large range of choices).
Please Reply, and every word you type will be carefully read over and consider by me. Once again, your Support is **GREATLY** Appreciated. Thank you so much!

Final Cut Express HD 3.5(Universal) Mac OS X (10.4.8)I've used the gamut - iMovie HD, FCE 3.5, and now FCP 5.2.
I originally just used iMovie HD. Say what you want about it, for quick edits and even professional looking basic videos (even in HD), it does a pretty good job. It's an amazingly powerful little editor for the price.
But there isn't too much tweaking you can do to the built in effects, and there's nothing like LiveType with it... so I then moved to FCE 3.5.
FCE 3.5 is almost identical to FCP 5 - the difference are small but to some, substantial. Paraphrased from GeniusDV.com: "FCE only supports the HDV format. HDV is a compressed format which uses mpg2 for its video compression scheme. HDV is starting with a 25Mbit signal with 4:2:0 color space. Final Cut Pro on the other hand can be configured to support ALL major formats of HD, including DVCPro HD. DVCPro HD is 100Mbit at 4:2:2. Unless you are a broadcast technician, don't let the numbers scare you. HDV still looks VERY good."
They're right about HDV, and I shoot in it exclusively. A critical feature to add is that FCE does not do "native HDV"; all the HDV footage must be recompressed into the Apple Intermediate Codec for editing. (iMovie HD does this too). This results in one more compress-recompress cycle and also causes footage to take up at least 3X the storage on your hard drive. It works though. Native HDV support in FCP was one of the main reasons I switched.
"FCE has many of the standard effects found in Final Cut Pro, with the following exceptions. There is no three-way color corrector, which means the ability to control the blacks, whites and greys of an image independently.... FCE does not support time-remapping. You may also have heard the term time-warp. This basically refers to the ability to speed up and slow down video over a fixed amount of time. And finally, no After Effects plug-in architecture is supported for FCE."
"Other feature differences
No customizable mapping of the keyboard, No support for third party capture cards. No ability to batch record No 24P support."
FCE does come with Soundtrack (a less-featured version of Soundtrack Pro), 4GB of nice Apple Loops, 4GB of LiveType fonts and effects, and a training DVD. LiveType is, to me, like "Motion Lite" and some cool title work can be done with it.
The addition of Soundtrack Pro isn't that significant over Garageband's integration with iMovie HD, but the addition of the loops and LiveType is. You can create significantly nicer titles in LiveType that go beyond Apple's iMovie templates. If you want to stick with the templates though (which afford a small amount of customization options), iMovie still works ok for basic edits.
Final Cut Studio also offers very good integration with Motion, Shake, DVD Studio Pro, and Soundtrack Pro that are not present at all/difficult to integrate in FCE. And of course, you get all those programs as well (except shake) with tens of GB of effects and templates, as well as pounds of books and training materials.
That's what prompted me to upgrade to FCS, once it went Universal so I can use it fast on my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro.
Bottom line - if it wasn't for my need of native HDV and the want to play with Motion, I would have stayed with FCE. It's a very, very full-featured editor for the price.
And iMovie HD? I still use it today to produce quick edits when I have very limited time or need to tweak.
It's all about what you need to do. -
Can somone help me with this problem
Restore it back to how it was when bought.
Backup (THAT is the #1 step to clean and good running) your data and personal stuff, and keep your system updated.
Don't install without research and reading. Don't install or use torrents etc.
Use good judgement. I'd say common sense but that is sometimes uncommon.
Probably when people get their disk down to less than 20% free is when the disk drive has trouble, and even new faster SSDs also or even more so need 20% free space to function.
Take it in - my Mac is 7 yrs old, these things take 20 seconds to "turn on" and be back where it was. Waking from sleep even faster.
Something is not normal or right if hitting power to boot or wake should be very fast.
Unplug everything you don't need to and make sure that the System Preferences: Startup Disk is set to your disk drive and not say a network interface. Printers and other devices unplug and remove for now.
Learn to use Recovery Mode. Disk Utility from there, to repair your disk drive.
Add some web sites to your reading list that deal with the Mac OS - I started decade ago with
http://www.macsurfer.com which was a master list of sites and headlines and then found a few that provided the best in ideas, news and troubleshooting advice and for what was happening in Apple world. -
i get asked to download mackeeper 911 alot. Is it safe to do this? and what is it for?
Do not install MacKeeper (and how to uninstall it if you have):
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6221
(Please note that references to the original developers, Zeobit, also now refer to Kromtech Alliance Corp, who acquired MacKeeper and PCKeeper from ZeoBit LLC in early 2013.)
This recent court case is illuminating:
http://www.courthousenews.com/2014/01/21/64695.htm Quoted below
"CHICAGO (CN) - A class action claims ZeoBIT defrauds customers by saying its MacKeeper software can spot performance problems on Mac computers, but labels every computer as "at risk" and in need of repair.
Lead plaintiff Gregory Ward sued ZeoBIT, a California LLC, in Cook County Chancery Court.
"ZeoBIT develops software that it claims will increase the speed, performance, and stability of a consumer's Macintosh personal computer by removing harmful errors, and eliminating privacy and security threats," the complaint states.
"Unfortunately, as described more fully herein, ZeoBIT uses a common deceptive scheme to trick consumers into purchasing its MacKeeper software, which ultimately fails to deliver the utility ZeoBIT promises." -
What is Roxio Toast 8 and what will it do to make it worth buying?
I often read rave reviews of the Roxio disc burning software Toast, and also Popcorn. What exactly would either of these give me that the existing disc utility on the OS can't already do? For instance, could it burn an iMovie project with out having to use iDVD? It is not that expensive so I was considering buying it but am not exactly sure what I would be getting.
like literally just wanted to put the movie onto a disc quickly to show, would Toast do this.
Yes, Toast can do this. So will iDVD6 for that matter. You can have it play once the disc is inserted or you can create a kiosk mode DVD from one step from a QT File or Folder.
The following is a direct quote from Karsten Schlüter:
for editing Toast has nothing to offer.
for creating videoDVDs, iDVD offer MUCH more, concerning 'design'
but...:
Toast offers a manual burn speed-selection - which could increase compatibility.. .
Toast allows a workaround for converting DVD content into iM-editable..
Toast allows more than 2h per SL dvd-r
Toast allows creation of (S)VCD.. (whoever needs that antique format.. )
.. but, as said: Toast is much, much more then just a 'DVD maker' ... it is a multi-purpose tool, e.g. doing backups, doing copies, PLUS a huge 'audio' section... plus many kind of 'data disk' things, ...
for the average user, iLife is enough..
for additional tasks, invest 80$ ..
