what's up guys john here with another video for you this time i'm going to list my must-have free mac programs these are some programs that i use all the time and can't live without and some of them you may know about some of them you might not they've been helpful to me hopefully they'll be helped fer to you you can find the name of these programs and a link of where to download them up there in the notes section so the first program that you've got to have with a mac and these are things you should download you know right after you open your computer is a program called flip for mac and what that does is it lets you play WMV files which are a window give me a windows media based file on your mac and it works just in your quick time so opens up no problem just like any other video file it is an absolute must-have a lot of files out there are in WMV a lot of the streaming video too that you see on cnn.com also need this player to to work just to get wood on any windows so flip for flip for mac must have another cool program is a program called app delete and in one of the nice things about max do the deleted program you just drag the icon to the trash but unfortunately that can leave some remnants of the program in the registry and what app delete does it opens up an icon and essentially you just drag the program to that icon and it deletes everything associated with that program really quick really easy and it's a piece of cake so app delete is one you guys gotta have another one that i'm sure you guys are all familiar with and mostly you are probably using is Firefox Firefox is a Mozilla based browser based on their gecko engine I believe I use Firefox have a Firefox think it's a great browser it doesn't crash not a knockout Safari I never really even use Safari I was used to Firefox from from Windows so that's what I use highly recommended if you're looking for another browser the next program excuse me for those you guys that use Gmail like I do is a program called Google notifier and what it does it puts a little envelope up on your the top bar of your computer and when you get new emails it lets you know and lets you know how many new emails you have it's really handy especially for me I get a lot of emails from from you guys you know new comments and questions and stuff so it's nice to know when they're there so I can I'm try I now try it to get back to you guys as soon as I can so that's a Google notifier another cool program when I don't necessarily use all the time but I do you sometimes and I know one that you guys like is something called I alert IDO and it's actually what that is is a an alarm for your Mac it takes advantage of some of the motion sensors in a MacBook MacBook Pros I'm blue there new MacBooks have them as well so what it does is you set this I alert program it sounds like you're setting a car alarm beeps at you and if somebody moves your laptop or opens your laptop a car alarm actually goes off and you can set it to take a picture with your built-in iSight camera so you can see who's taking your computer and they'll automatically email it to you it's a pretty cool program so it's just an alarm and again guys all the names and all the links and download these programs are gonna be right up there another program that you've got to have if you have an iPod and iPhone or Apple TV or anything like that is a program called I squint your like I and quit like you're trying to see and what that does that converts a really a cornucopia of video files to be played on the Apple products and it's very very easy to drag it in you click whether you want to play on an Apple TV or an iPod and how great you want the quality to be it also determines the size and get start and that's it it's really really really a piece of cake the next program that you gotta have is a program called handbrake like handbrake on a car and what that does is it lets you rip DVDs so it'll pull off the video off a DVD so you can watch it on your iPod or iPhone Apple TV or your computer must have next program that you got to have one that I use all the time is neo office and I've talked about neo office before in my MacBook Pro review so check that out for some videos and it's a full office for you like Microsoft's like Microsoft Office it's got a spreadsheet of a word processing program a presentation program and it lets you open up Word Excel PowerPoint documents you can save them in Word PowerPoint Excel documents and really save them in any format you want it's really helpful and the last program that I use all the time on my Mac is Skype I'm sure a lot of you guys use Skype too I use it for video conferencing it's free video conferencing for people that unfortunately don't have max so if you know someone that has a PC and you want a video conference with them just have them download skype and hook up their webcam and you guys are set escape is also great for colouring computer to computer you can also use it to call internationally and call regular phone lines but that part you have to pay for but the computer-to-computer calling and videoconferencing is totally free so Skype another must-have program anyway guys I'm sure there are a ton more programs that you guys use and you think other people might want so post a video response to this or post a comment on this video let people know what it is not just the name of the program but more specifically what it does and where they can get it from so hopefully we can all get something new or cool I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys have so again the links for these are up there hope you guys enjoyed watching have a nice day or afternoon wherever you are talk to you guys soon bye
