Mac Specialist has a list that separates applications that are free and those that require purchasing. 2.Top 100 Mac Appsis a compiled list of Mac applications by a blogger. Great to see what you’ve missed. 3. Open Source Mac offers opensource Mac applications, of course. Tremendously useful for small businesses running on Macs. Think free and legal.

i digg it !!!

Chris, sorry but I have to say this is a profoundly unhelpful post. In most cases the name and icon don’t even give me a clue what kind of app it is. So to learn about your whole list, I have to click 100 links. Some of those clicks take me to landing pages which in turn don’t offer me a clue. (e.g. ACP Suite. What does that landing page teach about what the software does? Or even that it’s software–I’m taking *your* word for that.)

This is one of those cases which demonstrate that the random-access web is a little over-sold, where taxonomies and organizing principles really help. The top-100 lists I’ve gotten a lot of benefit from have all been those that group their objects in some way. That way I can learn about a cool new backup utility by knowing I’m about to look at a backup utility, not by clicking 100 links which to me are random, in hopes I’ll find something of interest.

Still, my hat’s off to you, knowing how much work these lists are to compile.

Best,
Max

yeah

Thanks, a nice list.

Is any of those a file manager like Midnight Commander for Linux or FAR Manager for Windows? Wikipedia Mac apps list misses this category altogether but I find it one of the most essential tools.

Tried a cross-platform muCommander, but seems like in this category a native application is preferable. It did freeze as soon as I tried to do file transfer via SCP. Not good.

Chris,

Wow! Nice list!
I should probably take another look at Butler; I’ve been using LaunchBar for years and grew used to it – I do think it’s excellent. I am a huge fan of Peter Maurer, and rely heavily on Witch and Desktop Curtain. Yesterday I moved from Cyberduck to FileZilla, which is more complex but gives you a broader navigation experience. BTW, Onyx – which is great – is not yet certified for Leopard. iStat menus looks awesome. I use iStat Pro. Looks like they’ve developed a lot of cool new apps.

Great job. Looks like a lot of new items to check out!

David

Thanks, this is definitely going to help me for when I get my MacBook :D.

haha kewl you use MacSaber too! The most useless application ever but yet so cool!

You should replace 7zX with BetterZip which also supposed 7-zip compression as well as many others.

This was a really great list of apps… Though some of these were PPC only, I found SEVERAL applications I didn’t know about and have been searching for as a solution to various annoyances. Thanks :D

I know that all lists like this are subjective, but I’ll offer my take in on a couple of apps. You include both Butler and Quicksilver, but omit LaunchBar. I know the first two are free, but after extensively time with all three, LaunchBar was clearly better for MY needs, and well worth the modest registration fee.

I am surprised at the omission of TextMate, one of the reasons I switch to the Mac from Linux.

ffmpegX has got to be one the most frustrating apps I’ve ever used. It works fine for awhile, then suddenly stops working. I uninstall all the pieces, re-install, and again it works for awhile, always with the same error message. Many other users report the same error, but no solution ever offered by the authors.

There are many apps on the list that are totally unfamiliar and I am looking forward to checking them out. Thanks for putting this list together!

Chris: Which apps did I miss – especially for Windows switchers? ;)

You missed Fugu, a free FTP client. I haven’t done that much with it, but it looks very well-designed and other people I know really like it.

You missed Intego VirusBarrier, which I think is the best antivirus software for OS X.

You missed Seashore, a simpler and more Mac-native version of the Gimp. It’s the best free graphics software available for OS X that I’ve seen. This is important for switchers because it seems to be really hard to find any free graphics-editing software for Macs—the OS doesn’t even ship with something like MacPaint or MSPaint.

You missed OmniGraffle, which I’ve only used once (at school) because it costs money, but which is a very nice mindmapping program (like Microsoft Visio). Freemind (cross-platform) is a free alternative, but it has the worst user interface of any program I’ve ever used, so it’s not much of an alternative.

Also, I won’t say you missed Vienna (RSS reader), because it probably doesn’t deserve to be on this list, but I like it. So there.

Instead of using Teleport, I prefer Synergy because it works with Windows as well. So I from my Macbook, I can control my Mac Mini and my PC with only one keyboard and one mouse.
That’s probably one of the most amazing softwares I’ve ever found.

Without any explanation it’s hard to find this list useful. A one-liner detailing what the program does would transform it to useful.

I really think DOT.TUNES should be added to this list.

It’s FREE and very handy for streaming your iTunes tracks to any other computer – even your iPhone or iPod Touch

http://www.dottunes.net

Love
Lou

excellent list.

the one app I felt missing was notebook:
http://www.circusponies.com/
very useful for project based work.

great list…can you set aside another list of freeware/shareware for mac? i know, another project for another time, but a worthy one, at least for me.

Wow beautiful collection..

I am new to this Mac thing, bought a MacBook couple of months ago and still don’t know most of the things in it.
This list will help me doing some good stuff and work!

Thanks

G’day. Connect360 is worth mentioning too… it allows your mac to share files with an Xbox 360 on the network.. that being everything in your iTunes (podcasts, music, purchased tunes (except DRM tracks..) iPhoto and Movie folder. Very neat software… worked well until I upgraded to Leopard. I’m waiting for an update now :-P

TextMate is a definite requirement for this list. As far as web-developers go, I don’t think there is any one single app other than TextMate that has caused users to switch from Windows. (http://blog.macromates.com/2007/buy-a-mac-get-textmate/)

Two apps that were not mentioned:

1) Xslimmer
2) Yojimbo

Nice, but– where’s the picture viewer?

Serious Mac users shell out for Graphic Converter.

For free is Toy Viewer.

Not sure how you missed PopCopy2 (indispensable tool for me) and Cha-Ching for financial management ;) Others in my dock that you don’t have include Transmit, Cocoalicious, ecto, and NetNewsWire.

Flip4Mac (flip4mac.com) – translates .wmv files so that they will play in QuickTime.

Great list, but no Uno :(((((((

Missed one that’s awesome. Specifically FOR people switching from windows!

http://www.itsabouttimeproducts.com/switch_to_mac/

Pacifist (opens Mac OS X .pkg package files)
Transmit (cool ftp client)
Hex Fiend (hex editor)
Media Rage (MP3 manager/tag editor/etc.)
TextMate (ultimate text editor for OS X)
NetNewsWire (best RSS editor on platform)
HoudahGeo (add geo-information to EXIF data in JPEGs)
Mellel (wp program with some interesting capabilities)

Hi. Check out xtorrent torrent client. I miss this one in your great list.

What about a simple paint program?

I’m yet to find something comparable to MS paint.

That’s a very nice list of apps, there are some of them I haven’t heard about before, I’ll have to take a look at them. Thnx, nice work !

What about Pixel? It’s the most cheapest alternative to Photoshp on Mac, Linux and Windows. http://www.kanzelsberger.com

Nice helpful post. I’ll be investigating ones of interest.

For me one glaring omission typeit4me saves keystrokes and time humunguously.

Peter

You might want to add Flip4Mac, for converting wmv movies to Quicktime.

Hi,

Great list. But you missed my two faves…
Himmelbar – for accessing the full applications directory in list form
Desktopple – for hiding all the wretched desktop icons

What about Disco?

Thanks Chris! this is awesome!
Digg it!

Two of my faves aren’t here:

– WiFind, from Tasty Apps. Puts more info about Wi-Fi access points in the AirPort menu. Currently doesn’t work with Leopard, though. http://www.tastyapps.com/

– Menu Meters from Raging Menace put system status in the menubar. Macs don’t have disk access lights, so I use it for that. http://www.ragingmenace.com/software/menumeters/

Ooops, Menu Meters IS on your list, sorry. Just WiFind then….

Is this supposed to be a list of the best cheap or free apps? I’m a little put off by any “top” Mac application list that omits everything from Omni (for at least OmniOutliner and OmniGraffle) or Panic (Coda, Transmit). Maybe if you “did [your] best to avoid overly popular titles” it’d be better titled as a “top 100 lesser known” mac apps list?

It would be helpful if you tagged or color coded the apps that were freeware.

Top 10 useful apps for Mac newbies…

Turbo.264 only works together with the USB dongle that you buy from Elgato. I don’t think it’s fair to include a programme that requires external hardware to simply work.

Burn is missing!!

My preferred comic book viewer is ComicBook Lover: http://www.bitcartel.com/comicbooklover/

could you classify your top ten apps by some kind of categories, like:

- Desktop apps (mac management)
- System Preferences
- Productivity (working offline, photoshop, etc)
- Connection – Internet
- games
- small apps (Dashboard, widgets, etc)
- etc

And also, evaluate or rate each app?

Versiontracker do the same

Great list – great description, I don’t know why people don’t get it! Thanks

Sorry, Transmit is far superior to Cyberduck. It’s much more stable (in terms of stability, Cyberduck is a joke). It also has tabbed FTP/SFTP browsing.

We do big web development work and rely on Transmit every day. (And pay for it, too.)

Applejack saved my ass more than once and should be on the list!

Great list. What is even cooler is the talk it provokes. You always learn about new programs from the list, but about others who comment on it. Everyone has their own preferences in habit.

I, for instance, love Butler because it is free and allows me to emulate the Menu where my mouse is idea from MAYA. That is me. But I see things in QuickSilver and Launchbar that are nice to. In the end it helps everyone keep an eye on what our options are. That is the best.

Thanks for the time you put into it Chris,

Great list Chris. I am always impressed with what you find. I kinda did the same thing on my site. Although, It is a mix of software for a variety of platforms.. Mostly FOSS. I am not linking it in this post though, this is your show and I am not a spammer :) I did leave the link in the URL box above if you want to check it out.

Please look at Zooom ( http://coderage-software.com/zooom/)

Zooom allows you to set up keyboard shortcuts for moving and resizing any window from any place in the window.

There is no need to go to the title bar with the cursor to move the window or to the bottom right corner of the window to resize the window. Both can be done from any where in the window.

The lack of Graphic Converter demonstrates Chris’ lack of Mac history. I’ve been using it since version 1 in OS 8 something. Great image editor that gets better with every release.

Top Mac OS X Leopard Apps…

I guess we all have our own list of Mac Apps, here’s mine:
Firefox – The only browser that matters. ‘Nuff said.
Adium – Multiple IM support. Wish it supported video
iCal – The funnest calendar app and its free from Apple
NetNewsWire – …

1passwd Mac OS X Password Manager with AutoFill that leverages the OS X Keychain and provides built-in support for most browsers.

That’s really cool. I wish that some of those apps were free :(. Oh well. Must’v taken a long time to put this whole thing together.

i learned about this program from a friend for Mac.
http://www.pixelmator.com/

it’s kinda like Photoshop but cheaper (yeah, you have to pay)

XShelf make the Drop Stack function of Cocoatech Pathfinder! So you could stay in mac Finder (that is better for me). :)

PEEL – the greatest Mac MP3 blog reader and player – worth every penny, I don’t understand how this isn’t at the head of every list since it lets you get and capture a daily dose of new music. Try it, you’ll love it guaranteed. Bill

Hello,

I would like to see Mozilla Firefox and perhaps OpenOffice.org which is a free open-source office suite.

Thanks!

Thanks for the list Chris!

I use about 1/2 of all the apps here thanks to you!

Nice and interesting list indeed, as are (most of) the comments.

A couple of omissions if you ask me though :)
1) BBEdit: the best editor there is IMO (offers an educational discount too)
2) Script debugger: Sublime applescripting tool (but pricy)
3) Omniweb: Featurerich web browser.
4) Thoth: my preferred usenet reader (not being developed anymore though)
5) Path finder: like Finder but better.
6) Devonthink: information management system.
7) JournalX: like above but cheaper (doesn’t have applescripting support though)
8) MS Office 2008 :)

I’m amazed to not see Kismac here. The development has fallen behind a little since the German government made any and all security research illegal, but it is still an excellent tool and definitely the most powerful wireless scanning/security tool out there.

I wrote up a similar list, but I wanted to focus only on FREE apps, that were mac-only.

http://www.macnuggets.ca/2008111389/The-Top-10-FREE-mac-only-apps.html

Check it out for detailed descriptions of each app, along with screenshots of them running.

Your page takes too long to scroll through. Keep in mind some of us are running Vista on slow dual core computers with only 2 GB of RAM.

Have some pity on us.

thanks chris really helpful

What about iCompta (http://angeman7.free.fr/?language=en) ? It’s a free personal finance application. There is also an iPhone / iPod Touch version which can be synchronized very esaily with the desktop version.

awesome!!..love the list..im a new mac user..found this really useful…i wanna know if u cud help me..i need to boot camp and install windows..no clue how though..

Great list and a other apps I would add are FileZilla a great free FTP app, utorrent, CorD, Firefox, and facebook exporter for iphoto.

wow. amazing applications

Switch convert audio files from many different file formats to mp3, wav or wma. (http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html). I also use flip4mac.

Wey here is muy list, check it out.

The description is in Spanish but you can translate it with Google. Anyway you can see the app names with their logo.

And what about … focus booster – a pomodoro timer from http://www.focusboosterapp.com – a very simple yet effective timer to help you implement the pomodoro technique.

You forgot think

I cant seem to find out if my idea for an iphone app is out there. i put a search on apple site, but nothing came up. Is there a way to find a list? do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Rich

Would be really handy mate if you could design a website, this one …each time you choose an app to look at and try to return to the page it brings me back to your ugly mug at the top of the page, really not very helpful

Awesome list Chris! Thank you for preparing and sharing. Being fairly new to Mac (and loving it) this list is a great help to get some good apps quick.
