The best alternative is Ubuntu, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like macOS are elementary OS (Free, Open Source), Linux Mint (Free, Open Source), Debian (Free, Open Source) and Manjaro Linux (Free, Open Source).

But it's not just a monopoly play; there are legitimate reasons for Mac users to choose Safari: Mac users favor Safari for its rendering speed, clean interface and fast launch. The current Mac operating system is macOS, originally named 'Mac OS X' until 2012 and then 'OS X' until 2016. Developed between 1997 and 2001 after Apple's purchase of NeXT, Mac OS X brought an entirely new architecture based on NeXTSTEP, a Unix system, that eliminated many of the technical challenges that the classic Mac OS faced. Best choice for non-native speakers Nisus Thesaurus has several features that make it the best choice for non-native speakers. The old-fashioned style of thesaurus is not very helpful for English learners because they typically don't know the meaning of the suggested synonyms and so end up choosing a word that doesn't make sense for their particular context.

I started using this method, then found another that uses smaller files.
I open the avi in Quicktime (Pro natch), then export as a Quicktime media link file. iTunes doesn't seem to recognize the resulting file until I change the extension on the resulting file from qtl to mov. I can then drag it it into the Library and use it exactly the same as a reference file. My files so far are only about 4kb (or less). There may be a hidden 'gotcha' though that I've not come across.

Yes! I was resigned to coding all my AVI clips into h264 or something, but I tried the second method here and it works! Also supports playcounts, which is the most important thing for me. Lovely. I'm working on an Automator/Applescript solution and I'll post it here if I can get it to work.

Related but tangential question:
I've been downloading .avi files for some time now, but QT7 won't play them; I get a dialog saying something about missing components. I go to the QT website, but there's nothing obvious there to download to make .avi files playable. Any help here as what I need to install to get them to play?
I've been happily using VLC, but it seems like it might be nice if QT wasn't thrown off by these files. Plus, then I could use this hint to it's fullest!
Many TIA,

You need to install the DivX codec (divx.com--I'd get the beta of v6 if you're using QT 7, as v5 has some cosmetic issues with QT7), and probably the 3ivX codec as well--the latter isn't required, but with those two you can play just about anything.

Hey, thanks for the reply, but the Divx site is less than helpful. I finally found the OS X free version, 5.2.1, but the 6 beta that you mention is nowhere to be found (at least by me). Can you help me out one more time with this?

get it from http://download.divx.com/labs/DivXFusionBeta3.dmg

Just for the sake of completeness, besides, as suggested, the DivX codec from divx.com, note that some avi movies contain audio in Dolby Digital 5.1 (codenamed AC3 or AC52), which Mac OS X does not come with an appropriate codec either.
In order to be able to hear the track of those movies you will also need the AC3 QuickTime component from http://www.insaneness.com/

Thanks! My efforts were coming to nothing. This works great for me.

I'm prompted to find 'GrowlHelperApp.app' when I run this droplet. Do you know what this is, why I need it or where to get it?

Thanks, Andree. How hard would it be to write an Automator version?

I can't get this to work for me, with or without growl. Trying to bring in a couple of .wmv files, which were actually created on a pc (not mine!). Then again, I can't drag _any_ movies into the iTunes window, not even .mov files. Ideas?

--Are you using the latest version of QT and iTunes?--
Yes, both. QT 7.0.3 and iTunes 6.

I have the same lack of success with WMV files and wondered if you found a way to add them to iTunes. After solving the mystery of the avi movies, wmv is my only remaining non-iTunes entertainment folder.

I tried both versions w or w/o growl, but when I drag a movie over the droplet, nothing happens, as if the droplet wasn't recognizing that there was something over it. What am I doing wrong? Running Tiger, Itunes 6, Qt 7 pro.
and btw, when I first starte movie2itunes, it never asked me where I wanted to put the links..
cheers, this looks awesome

Using the latest version with latest Leopard and latest ITunes gives a funny error if I choose a Media folder on a different drive than the Leopard drive. Strange, as in either case, it seems it creates the stub video files and places them in the Media folder correctly, but then doesn't add them to ITunes (though the applet reports that it did).
Seems like a cool applet. Any chance for update to this?

What do you do when iPhoto has been volunteering to communicate with your digi-cam and it now possesses all of your .avi files? It doesn't seem to want to give them up easily.
I can't really believe that I have to open the entrails of iPhoto to root out all the .avi files and then drop the interesting ones to an AppleScript just to then watch them on my new iPod Movie via alia.
This part all seems very un-Applesque.

Sure enough. I was able to drag an AVI from iPhoto to the desktop space, but it still seems a bit incomplete for Apple to not provide some built-in communication between these applications (a la iPhoto to iMovie). It's not very iLife-ish.
I am a big, huge fanatic of the iPhoto library holding all sorts of non-JPG stuff from GIF to TIFF, MOV to AVI, even PSD. It's all there.. I like it!

I've been using Image Capture to import AVI files (to the Movies folder, to organize later) and deleting them from the camera before importing the remaining images into iPhoto.
Hopefully iTunes and iPhoto can eventually share overlapping content since both now support video. Is there a good solution to the underlying issue of these apps having separate libraries? iPhoto can access audio tracks of some videos from the iTunes library (for slideshows) but not the video tracks. And iMovie can access both iTunes and iPhoto libraries. Might iTunes and iPhoto libraries eventually merge into a single 'media content' library that those and other apps can more easily share?

The way you say volunteering, i guess you don't want iPhoto to automatically communicate with your digital cam???
To stop iPhoto 'volunteering' you need to change the settings in Image Capture which you will find in the appications folder.

Saving a movie as self-contained also works (requires QT Pro), and means there's no extra file cluttering up the folder.

Here's a droplet do do the above (save as self contained movie):

I'm sure the bit to add the file to iTunes can be easily added if wanted. This one just saves in the same place as the original and appends '.mov' to the filename.

Seems neither a reference movie nor a QuickTime Movie Link file will 'share' with another iTunes library.
In other words, they will play fine on your local machine, but if you share playlists with another Mac on your network these files will not show up, unfortunately. I have tried mounting all the drives where the original movie files reside on my MacPro, still nothing shows up in the MacBook iTunes shared list from the MacPro. Full video files that are .mov or mp4 show up, just not any reference movies or qtml movie files.
This other hint claims that the qtml method -- provided the source file drives are mounted on the local machine -- will stream the videos. I have not found this to be true. I hope someone can prove me wrong as I would love for this to work.
Also, be forewarned that the qtml files will not reference the original files if you move the original movie files. However, the 'reference movie' option will.

My bad, the other hint was not referring to a qtl Media Link file, but rather re-saving the movie with a .mov container.

It's common knowledge that Mac users prefer Safari to Firefox. It is the browser bundled with the OS – and we know how that generally works out. But it's not just a monopoly play; there are legitimate reasons for Mac users to choose Safari:

Mac users favor [Safari] for its rendering speed, clean interface and fast launch times.

Safari is, of course, a completely competent browser that stands on its technical merits, very much unlike IE6. But if you ask Mac users why they chose Safari, and if you keep pressing them, you'll probably find the deciding factor was that Safari feels like a native Mac app.

The next version of Firefox will use some native UI elements in OS X. But it's still not a native Cocoa app. The lack of a completely native UI on OS X may seem like a minor implementation detail, but it's actually a showstopper for a lot of people, like this commenter:

As vain as it may sound, those ugly widgets are actually one of the major reasons I use Safari instead of FF on OSX.

When two applications with rough feature parity compete, the application with the native UI will win. Every time. If you truly want to win the hearts and minds of your users, you go to the metal and take full advantage of the native UI.

Java has struggled with this problem for years, producing results spanning the continuum between 'terrible' and 'awful', depending on who you ask. Most Java developers have given up completely on GUI applications:

Desktop Java never worked because Sun tried to build their own OS on top of the real OS, duplicating every API and feature. This led to terrible bloat, making every app as heavyweight to launch as Photoshop. Worse, the GUI portions of the Java platform are awful, because Sun is a server company with no core competency at GUIs. The APIs are too clumsy to code to, and compared to any decent Mac app, the results look like a Soviet tractor built on a Monday.

Ultimately, the best any Java app can do is pretend to be a native app. To fake it. Valk mac os. And more often than not, it can't even manage to do that:

This project should be a cautionary tale for people who think programmers should be interface designers. Apple and Microsoft at least recognize that these are different skill sets, and that looks and feels should be created by a team of programmers, graphic designers, and interaction designers. Sadly the Linux and Java communities haven't really figured this out yet, and are still trying to have programmers do it all, with predictable results. The bottom line is that we don't really need different look-and-feels in Java. The best Java can or should do is faithfully mimic the native user interface. Unless your name is Bruce Tognazzini or Kai Krause, you almost certainly won't do better than that; and you'll be very, very lucky if you don't do worse. Pluggable look-and-feels are necessary in Swing only because Swing apps have to run on multiple platforms. They should be changed only from operating system to operating system, not application to application. The goal of a Java application is to fit in with other native applications, not to stand out.

GAIM has a cross-platform UI based on GTK, which produces predictably bland, least-common-denominator results:

Most of all, I find myself empathizing with Mac Safari users because I haven't been able to switch away from IE7 on Vista. Firefox feels so dowdy in Vista. It just doesn't fit in. It scrolls very slowly, the keyboard stops working at random, and the overall GUI is jarringly out of place, including the legacy main menu. There's no doubt whatsoever that Firefox is a vastly superior browser for web development, with a vibrant developer community. Firefox absolutely should be a part of every developer's core toolkit.

But when it comes to day-to-day browsing, I'll always pick native speed and native look and feel over the ability to install a dozen user extensions, or the ability to run on umpteen different platforms. Every single time.

If that makes me shallow, then I'm in good company. Non-native UI sucks. Cursed gold mac os.
