In this particular case a developer who, because of techinical difficulties, thinks he can and should decide how Usenet should be used by his clients. Beachballs, this is getting totally useless .. it also supports multi servers at the same time just try the demo it will convince you. If you’re not blown away with the improvement to your music, just email support@unison.audio within 60 days and we’ll give you 100% of your money back. EASE OF USE Building, installing, and testing Unison in Linux is relatively straightforward. The selection you make at the bottom of the screen is global, and you have to remember to switch back and forth depending on whether it's a file or message group. So — PLEASE stop posting insults! Prepare for a rave review and a full retraction of my extremely critical post of 16 Feb 2011. I paid for the upgrade but It's back to 1.8.1 for me and hopefully back to the drawing board for Panic. 1. it isn't a very cheap upgrade, it costs $18 This seems like a reasonable request and core functionality of the program... Has anyone noticed that Unsion 2 does not include all of the .par files when using .nzb files to start your downloads? I think it's great. The inability to mark and hide files 'as read' without deleting them permanently is the one thing that drives me back to Unison v1 again and again. Unison 1.8.1 gave you more feedback on what was going on, while this upgrade leaves you pretty much in the dark...Why?? Turns out that (for me, at least) 2.0 is a paid downgrade in so many areas that I'll be going back to 1.x. Unison is a user-level program, so there is no need to modify the kernel or to have superuser privileges on either host. I have immediately updated from 1.8 to 2.04 because I reckoned that automatic par/rar processing would actually work. first i thought it was the news provider but then i changed provider a few times but nope this was the unison that messed everything up. It trashes all EyeTV recordings running concurrently with any Unison activity (massive video/sound drop-outs as Unison ungraciously grabs all CPU/HDD calls). At least reading is good. Some continued research led me to find Windows and macOS builds of a newer version of Unison, version 2.51. Discover New Mac Apps. Unison pauses mid download. I Emailed you twice concerning the bug I have. Here is a suggestion that would keep people a bit happier in the future. Just click on a nzb file and the program is downloaded, checked, PAR checked and unrared. I'm using SABnzbd now and I'm very happy with it, does this do anything better/worse? - NZBVortex can be a CPU hog, particularly when unpacking. In those 6 days I did nothing but download headers, then got the 15 min time out when I tried to actually use it to download something I wanted. Nothing would make it run without crashing. This will prevent them from loading again, and also helps keep the cache databases manageable, making Unison run even faster. I also find that it keeps downloading the headers all again with every new version. It's post processing is horrible though - Always messes up my PARs etc., so I have that turned off and MacPar Deluxe/MacHacha take care of that instead. Unison is a file-synchronization tool for OSX, Unix, and Windows. Really don't know what Steve Jobs saw in Panic years ago. Make it easier to download PAR files. FYI, there is a UI glitch if you drag-resize the window using a Wacom stylus (at least an Intuos4). It includes the 1st .par file (which is small), but the rest are automatically purged from the .nzb for some reason. A return of the available header count next to the group name wouldn't hurt much either. Also, downloads seem to fail more often than not, so I've started just exporting NZBs and using NZBVortex to download. - Message filter can't be selected -> not working I've thrown the kitchen sink at Unison 2.1.6 since it came out and everything works, and I"m loving it like never before. 3. 2. Dandrac42 and NationOfLaws like this. I've been using Unison for 6 years now and I've experienced a few minor issues that were corrected by Panic when I emailed them. I always use. I've been noticing that my downloads randomly pause. Now the program (2.1.1) sometimes suddenly freezes in the dock or while uploading/downloading or just doing nothing (??) But Unison is still leaps behind PCs Newsbin. Apparently Unison 2 cleanses some par files from the set. Still not possible to mark a whole group as marked. Unison 2.2. works like a charm for me, just like all the previous releases from the last 5 or so years. ;-)) Unison runs a little cooler, in my experience. Fix the stalling #1. * Favorites aren't imported. It works 90% of the time, however, and I think that is a really cool feature that is worth keeping even if it's a little buggy. But this seems to be a blessing in disguise, as I don't seem to be having any of the issues people are reporting with versions 2 and above. I like some of the changes made to how items are downloaded, and of course it's now free, but it's buggy as hell. I just wish the developers would sit down and sort the stability out. This network-related software article is a stub. Unison have to automatically stop downloading when disk space runs out. Generally, I prefer NZBVortex if my main purpose is to have a bunch of NZBs downloading in the background. I takes the application over FIVE MINUTES to become responsive after I first double-click its icon. I had to use AppZapper to remove everything except the app file itself and then delete ~/Library/Application Support/com.panic.Unison2. It's as if something jams after the first upload of files People who used unison upgraded without trying the trial because they trusted the program, just like I did ! Also, it runs the pars, but doesn't seem to fix the files and re-run the extract. Youcan d/l earlier versions at: http://download.panic.com/unison/. Simply run unison with -repeat watch as argument or repeat=watch in config file. One thing to know about Unison before I continue is that you need compatible versions of Unison on both systems in order for it to work. Downgrade to 1.8 is guaranteed. The resume all button is greyed out. Thanks especially to DAVE for doing this project solo! It can even accept RAR files with par2 before automatically decompress archives. Tha patience is gone now. I quit using an app I wanted to love because it was so lame and slow I couldn't stand it any more. File Synchronizer Downloads: Downloads Available here! But then it deletes the par files! It is actually a little worse in Unison 2 because the groups freeze and can't be closed and reopened independently when frozen to get them loading headers again. No database for downloaded stuff. Downloads randomly pause after upgrading to Mountain Lion. Anyone know how to get the 2.1.10 version? I hope this information is helpful to others who may need to get Unison working across multiple systems. "Fixed an issue that could cause preferences to be reset" Very nice polished "Ferrari" GUI with a 1960 "Beetle" engine inside. UNISON membership costs less than you might think – costs start at just £1.30 a month. It worked until 1.8.1 why not anymore??? Sharing stories & updates about our work serving 1.3 million public service workers. History already prove that programmers should only program and stay away from design and usability questions, and Unison is no exception. I didn't like it at all. There are still apparent bugs that spoil an otherwise great design. Should I give Unison another whirl? That is normal, the connection is flaky, it should just try again and I don't want to know about it. I finally removed it completely. * ALL caches wiped without question, no attempt to migrate. Incredible: Particularly the uploadbug has not been repaired at all !! 4. server connection lost If you're a Usenet addict with a premium account, you'll probably want both NZBVortex and Unison to get the most out of it. From this page hosting Windows binaries for Unison, I downloaded a Unison 2.48.4 binary for Windows. I fully retract my post of 16 Feb 2011. - Doesn't have a own category for images anymore. Reverted to v 2.1.10 and everything is back to normal, no crashes, speed as it used to be. Sometimes it helps to pause the download and manually resume, sometimes it does not help. Unison is now faster than Hogwasher and seems to have no problem handling lots of rules and large newsgroups with a bazillion posts. (Wish I could get my money back !) * If you have many headers, like me, it's dog slooooow. While you can't mark binary content as "read," you can now "delete" files you don't want to see anymore. Oh - and of note - I uninstalled the new version of unison and now use VMWare Fusion to run windows 7 and a different reader (that I won't mention here). Very bad update - brings nothing new really, crashes during downloads, download speed at ½ of previous version. - Freezes, crashes, and even more crashes. Unison 2.48.4 was installed and running on the Ubuntu system, and I installed Unison 2.48.15 on the new MacBook Air. ask the user to manually choose on the action to make. How is it possible that so many people are complaining about your new version of Unison? My verdict: Stick with 1.8x. Only messages can be marked as read - but if you are in the "All" section this is absolutely pointless. If you’re running macOS 10.15, be sure to use Unison 2.51. Garbage. • Post-processing of files (unrar, unzip, concat) after successful dl (including recovery) The tool is known to work on Linux and it might work on other platforms such as macOS and Windows as all software dependencies claim to be portable across these. This is now probably the most elegant, well designed and useful app on my Mac. It's served me very well for a good number of years. Loses all headers, renames files it downloads to random names, downloads them to random folders, far files are then broken, no attempt to post process the far files. When it's working, your lucky, when it's buggy ( which it probably will be ), deinstall and look for other alternatives. It is designed for downloading binaries and reading Usenet newsgroups. I miss it. This is something Thoth and other newsreaders have been doing for YEARS. I tried to report this to tech support before posting here, but their site appears to be down. I look at the performance monitor and my duo-core mac book pro was at 100% CPU utilization. Someone tell me, has this thing speed up to be usable? The agonizing slowness in loading headers must have been caused by Unison applying rules and is now in the past. The "Lastest downloads" separator is no solution to that. Bought this and the horror started Panic's developers seems to simply not be very good at data transfer. The last major update was version 1.7 (everything since then has been bug fixes), and that came out in April of 2005. The latest version of Unison is 2.2 on Mac Informer. A waste of money. Fix the bugs That said, we're still considering the issue!" - You can browse groups directly from your Usenet server, rather than going through a third party NZB site. Let me illustrated. I was able to run Unison to synchronize files between the Surface Pro, the Ubuntu system, and the MacBook air running macOS 10.15. Definitely not. Same reason as why I won't buy an automatic car. Please fix it. I am used to marking threads READ in newsgroup readers. Crashing OS X is quite an achievement. Yes, it can take several minutes to fetch and group a large bunch of headers, but once they're loaded, it's a very convenient way to browse and search an entire newsgroup. I wanted this to be my Mac alternative to NewsLeecher. It's been a long time between drinks and like others, hope it's here to stay. Unison is a shareware Mac OS X client for Usenet, developed by Panic Software. But it also goes much, much further than any other Usenet client on earth, starting with a unique four-view interface that lets you view and work with Usenet group content in four distinct styles: messages, files, images, or music. And why can't I enter the "Header Load Count" for each group separately? No comments on the new bells & whitles because I'm not using them anyway. wrong with this release... It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. Unison is a solid Usenet newsreader available for Mac OS X 10.5 and later. Grouping ...... 3 minutes I hope Unison is around for a long time. Should be all set, right? I've been using Unison to upload and download since V2 with very few problems, and certainly not the sluggish behavior I see in the reviews. I can't do this with any NZB downloader that I know of. - Doesn't show the number of new headers in the favorite group list anymore. Will revert back to 2.0.4 whilst this oh-so-basic bug gets addressed. The interface is still OK, but it is nowhere near as usable as the guys at Panic seem to think it is. The absolutely abhorent performance leaves me still searching for a better reader. I frequent both tech groups as well as some binary groups. With Unison as your strategic partner, the burden of securely managing an IT infrastructure is eliminated, resulting in more time to focus on your mission. I'm wondering, is Unison's database management still so slow that my MacPro with four 3 GHz Xeon processors with 10 GBs of RAM will still take 10-12 hours to update my newsgroups databases as it always did? After waiting for some updates I'm still very disappointed in this software and it's support. I suggest anyone not to buy this software but test it for a long period before you spent any money on it. - the importer still does not work properly. • Streamlined dl/ul GUI: est. I haven't found it to be buggy. After that it's impossible to upload Files again. My main gripes are: 1. It's guaranteed to happen if I let Unison sit there idle for a while. Headbangingly, beach-balling slow. Yeah this is a tad unstable on all my Macs I agree it likes to beach ball me very often. I … For some reason nothing happens when selecting the "Preferences" and "Edit Servers" menu items. NZBVortex's UI may be a bit of a mongrel here and there, but a) it actually does what it promises, and b) beneath the pretty surface Unison's always had (and still does have) some truly ugly corners as well. I was beginning to think it was just me having these persistent hangs, so it's nice to discover this forum. Fortunately, cloning the GitHub repository and building from source was pretty straightforward. Posted on 21 December 2020. I hope there will be a update which fixes all these annoying stuff very soon! 5 speeds dramatically reduced There is a 6 day trial after which it will only run for 15 min. It offers all the expected newsreader functionality: easy-to-navigate threaded discussions, the ability to ignore annoying posters, multiple signature management, and easy, Mail … I've now spent the best part of an afternoon trying version 2.0 out. Started using NZB Vortex and loving it. Setup: Unison 2.51.2 for macOS installed locally, unison-2.51.2 compiled on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Sync between Mac and Ubuntu works fine for small directories (~ 1000 files). dubharmonic, Jul 27, 2020 #161. "How come I can't mark files as "read" anymore? Think they would suffer from that, since their version 2 is " crappy" from the beginning of the release ! Unison is a carefully-crafted, genuinely revolutionary Mac OS X Usenet newsreader. * You can't mark files as read, only messages. I made this request back in version 2.0 ... they are no into 2.03 and still no way to make text bigger.. It is absolutely staggering. Have to say, in despite of my previous comment, the program now fits the profile of a program that's worth to sell. Version 2.1x was ok but can't be registered anymore on a new system as they shut down(?) But then, if the developers make this version usable for me by changing the above I might give them a try. Main bug, namely " uploadfreeze" , has been solved now ! Let´s see where this goes as there are not many alternatives on the Mac. Unison — our excellent OS X app for accessing Usenet Newsgroups and the many wonders and mysteries contained within — has reached the end of its road after years of faithful service. All this takes place on a 3GHz quad-core machine w/8GB of RAM, running off a 10k rpm WD Raptor. If iTunes is playing, it carries on playing, but everything else seems to stop dead. I drive it so I decide when it changes gear and not the other way around. Sadly 'm forced to use other programs who will do the trick, unison 2.0 doesn't anymore !! The size of the latest installer available is 9.6 MB. I understand the point of caching files, but really? Which is the Best, Most Private and Most Secure Browser for Mac? Nice one. Cache problems like stated in the FAQ aren't really a users concern, are they? Lost my money, what a shame ! I also noticed that loading new headers is also not working properly. In the end I forced quit, restarted about 10 times, and then decided to diable the network, let it time out, then go into preferences and reset the max headers to "baby chunk" size. After all, one has to already know what one is searching for or browse the group listings at sites like Binsearch.info. Behavior with 2.04 is as described above. WOW! Now, the problem is that via brew install unison it installs unison 2.51.2, and via apt-get on the EV3DEV (debian-linux) it installs unison 2.40, which is incompatible. That's how familiar I am with this app. I hope you change your mind....... Forgot to mention — you can still send email to developers to report details of reproducible bugs & crashes in Unison 2.2: support@panic.com Include "Unison" in the subject line. But if you know Panic,… - When you're browsing a group in Unison, the binaries you've already downloaded are marked with a tick (though, annoyingly, this feature doesn't seem to work after you move a download out of the download folder). All the time. Panic have some nice apps they are a very slick outfit...but they need to stabilise this one up a tad. This is a common problem in many software created in the USA, and that could explain why I am able to read in some groups (like rec.music.classical.recordings) only postings from today and from the 18th of January of 2006, and nothing in between. A lot other issues as well ! All of this on a Mac Pro 1,1 with all Snow Leopard updates installed. Because the developer is friendly and responsive I paid for the upgrade, but I'll hold back on using Unison 2 until at least I can mark files Read/Unread and I can customize font size etc in the file listings window. NZBVortex only offers NZBIndex and NZBClub search, with limited customization - though you can, of course, search in a separate browser and have NZBVortex open the NZBs you create. It bothers me greatly to dl multiple Gb of data junk. Usually it comes back to me… except tonight, it didn't and I ended up having to press the power button after waiting five mins or so. And the "delete" button also not. I've started using NZBVortex recently for NZB files, and using Unison if I want to browse groups; between the two of them I've got all bases covered but I find myself searching and using NZBV more often these days. I see only problems on top of other problems. Less criticism and good reviews will be your share !! Maybe it has more problems when downloading files, but so far it's working well for me. Sorry but the last update of Unison also gives more trouble than relief. I would like to receive 10% off my first purchase, easy access to free products, special offers, and more by signing up to the Unison newsletter. "...End of development, last update for Unison..." Unfortunately I am running into the issue where large downloads will all decide to suspend at seemingly random points in time. But at least it looks nice. Unison 2.x is a good upgrade. And it looks like new Users are unable to even locate Unison on the AppStore. NationOfLaws Friend Friend. I hope Panic plan something new! However, Unison does have some useful advantages over NZBVortex, even if you're only using it for binary groups: Xnntp is a good choice but it doesn't to pictures too well but it is great for text and it is free!IT WORKS ON MAVERICKS!!!! Given that the present program works fine, I think this will be one of those "upgrade when I get my tax refund" type upgrades. There were no packaged versions of Unison 2.51 for Ubuntu. It is absolutely annoying that I can not mark files as read anymore. Some parts say paused next to them but the transfer queue in the lower left is not paused. It is not serious but you know you pay your cash you expect stability. Please fix it. Programmers shouldn't release crappy beta programs and let people pay good money for it. That's absurd. Usenet newsreader handles messages, files, & media. And waited. I have to admit I'm a little leery since this is the first update in what seems like YEARS. It is simple (a little too simple) and clean. OS X has woefully few Usenet readers and Unison is a very poor example of one. This current 2.1 version of Unison (as of 8/11/2010) is really buggy as all hell. You have to manually delete them using the "delete" button. Still no word from Panic concerning bugs and crashes....... RE: UNISON 2.0 The app is developed by Panic Inc. (Recall that I mentioned earlier that compatible versions of Unison were needed on both systems.). Unison's end is bittersweet. ), I get one list of what's available in all seven groups filtered by my rules with no cross posts, and I can choose the interval for when all seven groups are updated with the latest filtered headers. Program let's you upload some files fine the first time after installing the app. Nice interface, it seems as if the feature set had evolved to a point where it may have been. Dont know if i'm the only one, anyone else with same problem ???? This has been broken since Unison 2.0 launched, and is still broken months later. This Classic Mac OS and/or macOS software–related article is a stub. If you have a large library of headers, they will be wiped. I could not see how this was fixed at all. It's a completely waste of good money and my advise to everyone is, wait until the program is more stable or use something else !!! - Usability: instead of improving the search for groups (e.g., w/addtl. Post by Stefan Moser ***@alumni.ethz.ch [unison-users] silly question: I'm trying to keep several Unison versions installed on my machine (macOS 10.14.1): my main Unison version 2.51.2, and also one version 2.48.15 which I have renamed "Unison-2.48" in the /Application folder. See https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/install#mac-os-file-descriptor-limits. I'm using OS 10.14.3 Mojave and have found that if you add it to System Preferences/Security & Privacy/Accessibility, it works great. 3. ssl errors I’d used Unison 2.48.15 on macOS for quite a while, so I didn’t test the installation right away, instead moving on to the Surface Pro. Blog: Our members are … I hate cloud/server based DRM and understand even more why some people tend to copy/steal all the software. Really, goes from worse to worser. I've not selected "load newsgroup on startup" - but as soon as the newsgroup or even the whole favorites folder I made was selected on last quit, they are loaded at next start no matter if this option is selected or not. I know Panic has said 2.2 was EoD, but maybe they could at least release a bug fix to make 2.2 useable. Unison will need a way to listen to changes to files and while it has this functionality built-in on Windows and Unix, on macOS it needs an external file system monitor, unox is an option: I've been using Unison for 4 years. Will Panic update the AppStore version to 2.2? The app is developed by Panic Inc and its user rating is 4 out of 5. Unison 2.2 for Mac is available as a free download on our application library. I quit using it because updating the databases of the dozen or so newsgroups I subscribed to would take hours! Unison has finally met it's promise and is at long last a fantastic newsreader IMO. this is very strange. each time it's started. Using 2.2 with the exact same server settings doesn't do anything! ), but I still prefer to browse header listings, because I find things I miss searching NZBs. Transmit isn't the fastest FTP client, either, but it is at least reliable and has a decent interface, so many of us use it. As far as the rest of 2.0 upgrade, it's FANTASTIC. Very disappointed with 2.0.4. Please keep up the good work Panic, despite my perhaps sometimes harsh comments. I would give you a 5 if you can stop it beach balling me so often! I agree with most of the comments posted about the new version 2.0. But I mainly use it for text so not a big deal for me. As it is, I can use it for a short amount of time before it crashes, usually at the end of a download. You cannot just work with unread stuff here. Also the program suddenly stops downloading once in a while, can't connect to your newsserver anymore and asking you if your connection is OK. Unfortunately, I ran into a couple problems: Once past those two issues I managed to successfully get Unison to synchronize files between the Surface Pro and the Ubuntu system. I my case every new version had some new problems. - I also wanted to modify, hide or delete the directory, but I could not see any way to do this. Having now paid for the update, I have few complaints... the main one being that many of the features do not have keystroke options, which would enable me to program my mouse buttons to perform. - don't try to add read/unread option ; do it ! As far as I know, Unison is the best/easiest newsreader for mac. I don't know about the latest version, because I gave up 6 months ago, and I was one of the original beta testers of version 1.0. Nice software if it's working but if some crusial functions don't work properly it isn't even worth one dollar !!! Is this really necessary when going from version 1 to version 2? I also get needless error messages from time to time that it has failed to establish an SSL connection. is a huge understatement in my experience. Great, powerful, essential! Review: Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Trackpad 2 on Fedora, The Windows binary didn’t like paths with spaces in the name; no style of quoting seemed to help. Would it be possible to have an option to stick to the old interface or change the background to a lighter shade of grey so it will still be evident that one is reading and expanded tree? I have reported the problem to Panic numerous times, but they do not seem able to fix it. Are you sure that Unison works OK if the date and time are set in the computer in a format different to the standard USA format (month, Day, Year)? There were some minor bugs with the initial 2.0 release (like trial timeouts) but I've never had issues with downloading or decoding large archives from Giganews.
