Application Wizard for Mac

Publisher's Description

From MaBaSoft:

Application Wizard provides easy access to your applications, documents, folders, and disks. It lets you quickly open, quit, and make applications active, turn single application mode on, and quit background-only applications and the Finder.

With Application Wizard you can also disable window restoration for specific applications, browse volumes and favorite folders to quickly open enclosed items, eject and mount disks, check memory usage, and easily access recent documents, Address Book contacts, and your iPhoto or Aperture library. Application Wizard previews images, music, and movies and displays file properties and metadata.

What's new in this version:

  • Application Wizard lets you now run AppleScripts from the Open and Special menus. To run AppleScripts from the Open menu, add them to your groups or add AppleScript folders to the Open menu. To run AppleScripts from the Special menu, select them in the menu and choose Run Script.
  • Running applications can now be listed from the most recent one to the oldest one in the Quit and Switch menus. To list running applications chronologically, click the Customize Menus button in the Menu... See all new features

    "Cannot add preference panes to group"

    August 9, 2008  |   By screenmates1

    Version: Application Wizard 2.3.2

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    Ok, I tried to reduce the startup time by creating a startup group and adding apps that were getting loaded during login. I am unable to add preference panes, daemons, etc to the group so I can lazy load them as I don't really need them the very second I login. But when I navigate to Library/PreferencePanes, all the items under it are grayed out whereas I need to navigate well deeper into say: LazyMouse Preference pane > Content > Resources > LazyMouse but I can't even get past Library/PreferencePanes because they are grayed out. Drag-n-drop items is not enabled either. So, although I was able to add a few items to my startup group, I am really confused if it is reducing the startup time and saving me any time or is it really worth it. What's the reason adding preferences panes, daemons, etc is disabled? Without this option, I don't think this application is replete with features... Are the developers going to add these features to it?

    I bought this software shortly after buying my new Mac over a year ago because I need a faster method to manage OS X. I don't know how anyone can navigate OS X efficiently without Application Wizard.

    "These reviews need updating"

    January 19, 2007  |   By drtimothyjames

    Version: Application Wizard 2.1

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    Wow, the last review I see here is for version 1.4. This thing is up to version 2.1. I've been using this product for a long time, and it's been steady as a rock. It has numerous features worth investigating. I particularly like the ability to quit apps via a pop-up menu. I use AW in conjunction with Butler. I set a hotkey for the quit menu, configure the hotkey for my upper left screen corner, and now I can quit any running application at any time without even having to first switch to that application. That's only one of many nice features of this program.

    "Unusable...Prefs Pane crashes!"

    February 24, 2005  |   By slc1967

    Version: Application Wizard 1.4

    Summary

    System Prefs crashes every time I tried to select this pane... I think it's named wizard because it simply makes your prefs pane disappear from the desktop...

    "FANTASTIC MARVELOUS UTILITY!"

    November 19, 2003  |   By kevinC.

    Version: Application Wizard 1.3

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    This is a wonderful one of a kind utility. The two things I like:

    1) You can instantly quit all applications at once.

    2) With new update, you can hide all apps at once, and yet select to not hide certain apps -- this is brand new feature that the Apple's finder cannot do.

    There are many more features, highly recommended.

    Great support too.
