i had but to read the last four reviews - one fellow's had it installed for *years* and it *still* doesn't work right! - to know i ain't even giving this thing a download. to the developer: get it together or get out. we don't need crap like this cluttering up versiontracker and wasting everybody's time.

iClock Pro ReviewStill flawed - Version: 1.0rc1, 9/26/2009 02:23AM PST

The developer still doesn't get it!

The utility is still in beta. Another way of saying we are the developer's free quality control department (FQCD). Yet they expect to be paid for the software, bugs, shortcomings and all. Until we pay, we do not have access to all of the features. So how the hell can we evaluate it, report bugs, request improvements and do all of the other things that the FQCD is asked/expected to do?

Until I can evaluate all of the features, I will never pay for it. Other software developers know how to sidestep this chicken-and-egg situation, why can't these guys wake up (and sniff the missing revenue stream)?

iClock Pro Troubleshooting ReportFloating Clock Issue Linked to Spotlight Use - Version: 1.0rc1, 9/5/2009 12:38PM PST

gillick
I am running Mac OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and still am encountering problems. The floating clocks appear as an overlay to the screen displays of different applications. It seems to be linked to the use of Spotlight. For example, if a page in MS Word is displayed on screen and I use Spotlight, a floating clock appears over the Word file display.
