Useful cloud
Online file services that sync with your Mac have been around for some time, and provide you with valuable storage, collaboration and more. I recommend Dropbox and Box.
Network Utility shows information about each of your network connections, including the hardware address of the interface, the IP addresses assigned to it, its speed and status, a count of data packets sent and received, and a count of transmission errors and collisions. Network Administration Tools for Mac OS X Users, Joe Rivera, Mac Fallout Shelter, 2007.06.25. Thanks to Mac OS X, today's Macs are great network citizens and excellent tools for doing network administration.
Notes on the go
Evernoteis an essential companion to anyone researching online. Use it to file clippings, notes and loads of other information in your online scrapbook, which you can access anywhere.
Contacts
Apple’s Contacts application is pretty good and integrates well with the rest of the OS, but for a contacts manager with more to offer check out CoBook, which adds powerful social media integration.
Data recovery
When things go wrong and you accidentally delete data or your hard drive fails then you’ll need Disk Drill, Data Rescue orDiskWarrior ($119). DiskWarrior is an insanely powerful recovery solution, but for basic file recovery all three work, including recovery of data from external drives.
Memory hogs
Noticed how some applications consume so much RAM your Mac moves like a geriatric possum? One way to fix this is to relaunch the memory-consuming app, the other is to use Memory Clean or Dr. Cleaner. Both will optimize your RAM to maximize available memory, while Dr. Cleaner will also clean the disk and check for large files.
Sleep well
We stare at our computers at work and at home, we use iPhones and iPads and then find we can’t get to sleep at night. There’s a science at work here concerned with the blue light used for displays and its harmful effect on the brain’s sleep centers. To help yourself use f.lux, which matches the color of your display to the time of day, filtering out that blue light at night.
Virus checker
Mac users aren’t terribly impacted by viruses, but we can still pass them on. If you work and share files with Windows users you should ensure your Mac doesn’t infect the lesser platform. That’s why I use Sophos Anti-Virus.
Liberate disk space
With over a million users, Disk Doctor($2) is one of the very best disk cleaning utilities with numerous useful features – recommended.
File reduction
Monolingual removes the international language support files installed by default on OS X, reclaiming several hundred megabytes of space.
Backup (please backup, please, please)
Losing your images, music and other precious digital things is how almost every Mac user learns why they should back up. Use Apple’s Time Machine for one back up, but don’t stop there – create a second backup using either Carbon Copy Cloner($40) or Super Duper!($27.95) (both of which are excellent), and take a look at Crashplan as additional protection.
Faxing
You will be glad you got iFax each time you need to send or receive a fax.
Privacy
If you already use the rapidly improving DuckDuckGofor search (and you should) then you should also look at Little Snitch and Ghostery. Ghostery lets you control all the zillions of cookies ads firms install on your Mac, while Little Snitch lets you monitor incoming and outgoing network traffic so you can control your privacy.
VPN
NordVPN provides a fast, utterly private, encrypted virtual private network for completely secure Internet access on Macs and iOS devices. If privacy matters to you, you need this.
Is anyone using Credant (full disk encryption) on their Mac laptops? Posted: by donmontalvo Credant mentions Casper (and ARD, LANDesk, LANrev, etc.) on their site, since the. Online Decryption After Initial Processing: Ensure your FTK machine can communicate with the Credant server In FTK, click Tools > Credant Decryption to open the Credant Decryption dialog. Aes decryption tool. Dec 14, 2012 Credant has added support for managing FileVault 2-encrypted Macs to Credant Enterprise Edition for Mac 7.5.x. Based on my working with it over the past couple of weeks, it looks like a solid solution for managing FileVault 2 encryption on both 10.7.x and 10.8.x.
Maintenance
Onyx has been an essential utility on every Mac I’ve owned for over a decade. It handles all your Mac maintenance routines and provides numerous useful features to maximize performance.
Delete applications
When you install them many applications also put necessary Library and other files in place that consume lots of space on your Mac. When you delete the application those support files aren’t always deleted too. That’s why you use AppCleaner, which will delete all those stray support files along with the unwanted app.

Wireless networks
When you want optimize your own home or office network, find new open networks or even survey a larger building to identify any network ‘black’ spots, NetSpot is the essential tool for you.
Duplicates detection
To find large and duplicate files use OmniDiskSweeper, the industry standard tool for the job.
Keyboard extender
LaunchBar($24) is the go-to application if you’re looking for powerful keyboard shortcuts – you’ll be amazed what it can do.
