2 Days Left for Latest MacHeist Bundle: 12+ Mac Apps for $39

Bundle Question

Right now Im on my powerbook and I have a mac pro coming thursday. I want to buy this bundle and I am just wondering how it all works. Do you download it after you buy it and then you get serials to put in? So I could buy and download it today and then just install it on my new mac pro when it comes? Am I correct with assuming this?

You could download it today or wait until Thursday when your Mac Pro arrives. You will get an email with the serial numbers, as well as being able to access them on the MacHeist site. So you can enter them later.

If you are planning to install only on the Mac Pro, I would just wait until it arrives.
 
There are some really great apps in here. Delicious Library 2 is cool, and Times and World of Goo are amazing. It's really a great deal.
 
how do I figure if I have gotten two referrals yet or not! Anyone knows?

or do the apps appear automatically on bundle receipt page once two of them are in?
 
They would appear on the look page, though it seems they've disabled live updating of referals to ease server load in the final countdown.
 
Cool, but cant get kinemac to register.

The link in the email opens a blank txt file.
The link from the receipt page gives a file...but when in the app folder the program still opens as demo???

What gives?

Other than that Im excited about wiretap and my kid and me are into world of goo as well. :D

Would be nice to play with kinemac (not in demo mode)

peace

Why are so many of you negative toward this bundle? The majority of us are happy, and we are getting a bargain for the applications we want. The developers are happy because they are getting some cash for apps they "MAY" never have had sold too. I already had some, but it was worth it to score BoinxTV (WHICH IS NOT A CUT DOWN VERSION). Because of that, I got to play with Times and I love it! I am also having fun with the Chef program. So, if so many of us that are buying it are enjoying it, what are the real reasons for some of you slagging off at it?

I personally always try to avoid people whose ethics I find to be dubious, but that's just me.

I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying your apps - I'm not replying here to get at you - but the issues with MH in the past are well documented and have been covered in the Mac news sites and some general IT news too, and some people don't want to have anything to do with them.

That's our choice you know, just as its yours to go ahead and purchase.
 
how long after buying this do I need to install/license the apps?


I already have the best one offered (delicious) but a few others looked cool

How long did it take everyone to receive your Delicious Library license? That's the one that I dove right into, but I could only add 25 items until they give me the code.

This bundle is well worth the $39, even if it is stuff that I may not have bought otherwise.

If I had not bought that app last year it would be my favorite in the bundle :p

Delicious is just so awesome, books, cds, and dvds, all of them scanned with art work!
 
I really don't understand the mentality of people voting negative on this at all. It's a great bundle, and so worth the money if you need one or two of the apps.

I'm loving Delicious Library and Wiretap Studio the most, but I'm sure I'll try out all the apps - that is half the fun to me, you get to try full versions of apps you might never have bothered with otherwise.

After giving it some thought, I've decided not to take the plunge...there's nothing really useful in there for me...and this whole thing about "twitters" and "referrals" sounds too fishy or spammy for a software bundle...so no, thanks.

Go to www.macheist.com, and click view my receipt in the top right corenter. Scroll down to Kinemac on your receipt, and click the Registration File.txt link. It should work there.

Thats what I had to do, because the link in my email didn't work either.

If you just want the bundle all you need to do is buy it, to get the offer known they offer a free app for one referal and a suite of apps for 2. Also for posting a link on your twitter you revice another 2 free apps, nothing too unreasonable about that...
 
All apps unlocked. Woo Hoo!

This really is a great deal. The inclusion of World of Goo, Multiwinia, and Delicious Library 2 together make this worth the price. And if the whole "twitter" thing sounds fishy to you, just do what I did; start an account with a false name, follow the instructions, then forget the account exists. For that you get Multiwinia and Delicious Library 2, both fantastic apps.

I also really like SousChef. I can't wait to play around with the rest of them.

EDIT: Got 2 referrals, so the link has been removed. Thanks guys. Now, if I could only figure out where to get my referral rewards. There is no "loot" section.

Thanks...I got it to work.

I got stuck at the demo license...didnt realize you had to click accept to get it to load the other license...thought it would load the other first, but anyway. :D

All is good, Im glad I bought this package...lots of cool stuff. :)

Peace

Awesome!

Some great applications in this bundle. I am not planning on using all of them, but definitely feel that I got my monies worth. A "thank you" goes out to the developers for participating in this event and to MacHeist for donating some of the proceeds. All around, this was a great purchase.

***Content Removed***

Thanks!

Thats what I did as well. Just created some thing useless that i dont care.

please o please, someone click here and buy. Thanks


Update: I have reached two referrals. So I have removed the link. I thank all the kind souls that clicked on my link. :)

For those confused where to look at after getting referrals, check the "Loot" page

I would love to buy it, but can't see anything useful in the bundle...does anyone care to tell me what is REALLY interesting in it for ordinary users?
Click to expand...

Since I do not know your interests or needs, I cannot tell you what would be REALLY interesting for you or any other user. Look at the apps, read the descriptions, and decide if it is worth $39 to you. If you really want to, since some are shareware, download them and try it out before you buy. Its really that simple.

I have passed on other MacHeist Bundles in the past because I either owned the apps that would cause me to purchase the bundle, or I just wasn't that interested in any of them to spend the $$. Sounds like you might be in the latter boat, and if so, just take a pass. You are not missing out on anything if there is nothing in the bundle you will actually use. Me, this is the first MacHeist bundle I have actually purchased because there are at least 3 of these apps I see using on a regular basis.
 
World of Goo doesn't require a serial number?

I clicked on the link that says, "get license" and it just leads me to the download link to download the exact file that I already downloaded using the download link.
 
Loot? Where do I claim my referrals?

So where exactly is this "loot" section people keep telling me to click to claim my referral rewards? There does not appear to be any such section on the website.

EDIT: Nevermind. I found it in the forums for some strange reason. It really should be linked on the main page.
 
Hmmm, I got a "PHP Error was encountered" for my Espresso serial number. Am I the only one? I hope they're going to fix this eventually.

Edit: OK they just fixed the PHP error.
 
Amadeus Pro vs WireTap Studio

I am interested in creating some podcasts this fall. I already own Amadeus Pro. If I am only considering purchasing the bundle for WireTap Studio and Boinx TV, would anyone recommend them for podcasting? Does anyone use them for podcasting?
 
just bought them

I just bought the apps and they all look pretty good to me. They are only 39 bucks, why is everyone complaining over 39 bucks for all these apps. I know they are not full 300.00 type of apps but they all look good to me.
