Cyberduck's impressive feature list is a little too long to dive into, but if you thought you needed to pay money for a solid FTP client on your Mac, take a look at Cyberduck first. (Though if you're a big user of iChat's admittedly great screen sharing and video chat tools, it's unfortunately not up to snuff on those points.) Ĭyberduck: This excellent open source client can connect to and upload/download files via FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, Amazon S3, and even Google Docs. It's completely customizable, works with almost any chat network you'd want, and still outdoes iChat on most fronts. Īdium: Adium is hands-down the best multi-protocol instant messaging client we've used on any platform.
LIFEHACKER PACK 2015 FOR MAC FOR MAC
Google just dropped the beta tag from Chrome for Mac and released their first stable build meanwhile, Firefox still has a few features we'd sorely miss if we switched over to Chrome. įirefox/ Chrome: These two are fighting for default browser status on many a Mac, and frankly, they're neck and neck in our hearts at this point. A good share of Mac fans pony up for premium apps like TextMate, but if you don't feel like shelling out $50 to get your coding on, TextWrangler's a great option.
TextWrangler: If you do heavier text editing than Notational Velocity offers-like, say, coding-free text editor TextWrangler is a great tool for the job. If you're an obsessive plain text note-taker or to-do list creator, you won't regret giving it a test run. Notational Velocity: This brilliant little note-taking application creates, searches, tags, and syncs plain text notes between desktops, the web, and even your iPhone (syncing takes place either through Dropbox or the excellent web-based Simplenote). It's not a replacement for Word, but if you don't need everything that word offers (and you don't want a bloated replacement like ), Bean's a great option. Bean is an extremely fast, lightweight document editor (and written in Cocoa) that handles Word documents like a gem. īean: You're on a Mac, and chances are pretty good you're not eager to shell out cash for Microsoft Office to open and edit the occasional Word document. It can be a bit difficult to wrap your head around, so rather than go into too much detail here, check out our beginner guide, settings tweaks, and video demonstrations. Quicksilver: Quicksilver is an application launcher and then some, capable of browsing your file system, firing off quick emails, flipping through your iTunes library, and much, much more.
