Accessories: Editorial Review: Product Description: This is the eagerly anticipated Universal Binary version of TechTool Pro that will run on both Intel and PowerPC-based Macs. It fully supports the hardware changes introduced to the Macintosh platform with the introduction of the new MacIntel chipsets. All of the features of the program that were previously available for PowerPC based Macs are available for Intel-based Macs as well. This includes the innovative eDrive (emergency startup partition) feature of the program, found nowhere else. In addition to Universal Binary support, the new release will also include some significant program enhancements, including improved Disk Controller test routines. Unlike most application software, more than a simple re-compile of the program was required to support the new Intel-based Macs. Because TechTool Pro works with the computer hardware at the lowest levels, it was necessary for Micromat to completely re-engineer the software from the ground up. In order to support the new models, Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) is required to run the program. TechTool Pro ships on DVD for both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs. The DVD will automatically boot the correct system version. No product comes close to TechTool Pro for ensuring that all of your hardware and software is operating at peak performance. No other software gives you the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your valuable data is protected by the latest technology. With a single mouse click, TechTool Pro can automatically run a series of sophisticated tests that will troubleshoot almost any problem you are having with your Macintosh. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I Think It's GoodSome software's are so complicated - but this doesn't appear to be. It seems to be rather quite simple... That is, if I'm taking advantages of all it can do. I bought it because of the reviews on this site and CNET. I guess it "dose" good for the "system" becsue it seems to run better afterwords (CERTAINLY not worse) - however if my computing functions are all that complicated in the first place to need such "refining" remains to be seen. So I recommend it "just because" it's good to have something ... Read More Rating:  - TechTool Pro v4.6.1 will not work with Mac OS X 10.5I've had Tech Tool Pro from the start. I thought it to be essential. Not so as it will not work for me with Mac 6S X 10.5. I have a G-Drive 500 GB exterior hard drive. It is the item 4.6.1 cannot deal with. I have just run a complete defrag of the G-Drive in this, my 20th or so attempt to get 4.6.1 to run. Running the medium program, as recommended for periodic maintence, it runs to Volumes, Volume Structures (for the G-Drive) to the point of Catalog File (B-Tree) number 1394362 of ...

Micromat will be happy either way. As a current Micromat customer, I am the proud owner of an expensive utility that worked for all of two months. Leopard broke it completely. When Micromat updated their utility to be compatible with Apple's current OS, they wanted all of us to pay them again. They simply renamed the "update" from "Techtool Pro 4" r4.5.3 to "Techtool ...

Rating: - Unsafe program sold by sleazy jerksI purchased this product and it worked for a while, then leopard came out and I needed up purchase a upgrade disk for 25 bucks plus shipping, no download offered. Then after "optimizing" my harddrive I had to reinstall leopard because my permission were broken beyond the repair of disk utility. When I tried to contact their technical support they made me register the product, which is fine, then enter a registration number which I didn't seem to have, so no help for me. Now they're advertising techtool ... Read More |
