Tidy Up! has become a must-have utility for Mac owners seeking to reclaim disk space being taken up by duplicate files and packages. Employing a fast search algorithm that quickly scans any mounted drive volumes (hard drives, optical discs and portable drives) without writing an index, Tidy Up! locates duplicate items using a wide range of criteria including: owner application, time created or modified, name, label, extension and content.

Tidy Up! also offers the capability to scan the databases of popular Apple applications such as iphoto, Aperture, iTunes and Mail. Tidy Up! makes use of "Smart Baskets" for quick and easy organization of found items, with the ability to trash, move or archive duplicates, as well as the option to export a list of found items as HTML or text files.

Version 2 of Tidy Up! introduces nearly 50 new features to this already comprehensive tool. Among the key improvements are:
* A new Basic Search mode with over 90 predefined search types
* EXIF information supported through new search criteria and Smart Basket criteria
* The ability to exclude any supported applications (iTunes, iphoto, Aperture and Mail) from the search, allowing for identification of items not included in their databases
* Smart Basket capability to identify items belonging to a particular album, playlist or mailbox
* Moved and trashed items may now be replaced with an alias or symbolic link
* A new and improved interface, including additional information displayed when selecting a found item
* New user manual

From version 2.2.0:
* Added full compatibility with Aperture 3
* Fixed a bug that sometimes crashed the application during a search for MP3 files
* Made some cosmetic improvements
* Fixed other minor bugs

Pricing and Availability:
Version 2.2 of Tidy Up! requires OSX 10.5 or greater, Snow Leopard full compatible; for machines running earlier versions of Tiger and Leopard, Tidy Up! versions 1.2.11 and 1.4.10 are still available.

Playback is engineered for extreme performance, while at the same time delivering a streamlined design with unparalleled reliability and stability. By default, it will share almost any content on the users system. And Playback automatically integrates with iTunes, iPhoto, Aperture, Adobe Lightroom 2, Photobooth, and EyeTV too, making it a perfect complement to Apple’s iLife Suite. Users can share all content from these applications transparently or choose specific playlists and albums.

Those who like to tinker will appreciate Playback’s built-in Access Control List (ACL) and bandwidth throttling. The ACL allows users to control which devices have access to their media. Bandwidth throttling limits the transfer rate from the computer to their UPnP device. This allows others on the network to do other internet related activities, such as surf the web and check their email.

Playback was engineered for extreme speed, while offering complete control of shared content. Media is served via lighttpd, the same rock-solid technology that powers YouTube, Wikipedia, and many other popular sites. Playback sports many creature comforts as well, including Growl notifications, Spotlight based searching, on-screen thumbnails (powered by QuickLook), and much more. Playback even includes a handy Status menu which conveniently displays live stream info, at-a-glance.

Feature Highlights:
* Streamlined design
* Unparalleled performance and stability
* Share movies, music, and pictures
* Transparent integration with iTunes, iPhoto, Aperture, Photobooth, Adobe Lightroom 2 & 3, and EyeTV recordings
* Complete control of shared content
* Spotlight based searching
* Quicklook thumbnails for all media
* Bandwidth throttling
* ACL access
* Growl notifications
* Status menu with live stream info
* And much more

Photon Star searches the iphoto library for pictures that need star ratings. The user may choose an album containing unrated photos, and Photon Star presents the photos in an uncluttered rating interface that may even be made full screen.

The rating process is divided by Photon Star into four stages, one between each of iPhoto’s rating levels. During every rating stage the user needs only to decide whether a photo will be held at the current star level or promoted to a higher rating. By keeping the decision focused on the simple question, "Does this picture belong in a higher stage?", Photon Star helps the user concentrate on the photos themselves. The rating process flows smoothly without the distraction of making a complex, 5-way decision for every photo on its own.

Calf Trail aims to help users better enjoy and share their photographs by providing useful apps to help efficiently organize large amounts of photos. This product lineup started with Geotagalog, a straightforward geotagging utility that lets a GPS logger do the hard work of organizing photos based on where they were taken. Now Photon Star adds another important piece by helping a user quickly filter or prioritize their iphoto library. After rating their library using Photon Star, a user can spend more time with their favorite photos out of all they have taken.

Click on Events in the Source List, then select the Event you want to move. Note you can select and move several Events at a time if you wish, simply Command-click one or more.

I’ve selected three Events here and after clicking on them and dragging, the other Events move out of their way. You can drag them anywhere in the viewing area. Once positioned, let go of the mouse and that’s all there is to it.
