MacBook Pro ColorFix 0.5 is a very flexible and effective utility which fixes a bug which started in OS X 10.5 and persists with Snow Leopard 10.6.

Users are reporting that with multiple monitors attached to the MacBook Pro (an potentially other Macs) the local display profile changes from it's correct setting when woken from sleep, resulting in a washed-out blue-ish look on one or both monitors. Simply opening the 'displays' preferences panel results in the color profile automatically correcting itself back to the correct profiles. This can be a pain, so this AppleScript Application simply does the above automatically. Place it in your dock and click it whenever you encounter this situation. Hopefully this will be addressed by Apple before this application comes out of beta testing.

VUWER 1.2.4 brings a simple to use, yet sophisticated Applescript application to remotely track your MacBook or MacBook Pro (or any other Apple computer) in the event that it is lost or stolen. VUWER is not foolproof, but it is reasonably secure, easy to implement, and costs nothing but a little time and effort to set up.

Major Features:

1. VUWER is free of charge, open source, and relies on standard OS X commands and readily available freeware applications for installation and operation. Also, since VUWER is written in Applescript, it is relatively easy to modify or enhance in any way you choose.
2. You are in complete control of where the captured data from your stolen laptop is sent and how it is accessed; data can be transmitted either by email or by secure file copy to another computer account.
3. You can remotely capture screenshots, iSight images, and IP addresses from your laptop, and separately choose their respective repetition intervals.
4. No third-party intermediary is required to track your laptop. VUWER eliminates any possibility of an unscrupulous person at a theft-recovery company snooping on you.

Requirements:

• Mac OS X 10.5.7 or later
• MacBook Air.
