Thanks for the update!

Thanks for updating the Jewish Calendar program to be “Universal” so that it will run on Intel Macs and on Apple Silicon Macs without using Rosetta.

Intel?

Used for years, always helpful. Release 4.0 looks better, cleaner look, etc. But it still comes up as “Intel” based. Last year, I finally ‘graduated’ and Apple-M4 chip. The app still works, but it ‘reminds’ me about all my Intel based apps pretty frequently.. Presumably, it won’t work in the future?

Does just what is says very well

Nicely written and easy to use. Only concern I have is that I got a notice that it’s “not optimized for my Mac.” I assuem this means there’s some code that could run more efficiently if it was written differently. Let’s hope the developer continues to maintain the app as Apple continues to update the macOS.

Works with Mavericks / OS X 10.9.5

It said it was an upgrade to be compatible to OS Lion. So, I knew it’d run on a 64 bit OS. I saw that others said it also works with Mountain Lion. So, I was hopeful that it would run on Mavericks.

I downloaded & installed it with no difficulties. I have opened it, and looked up my DOB, and my daughter’s DOB. Both DOBs translated quickly, to the correct Jewish calendar dates. Yippee!

The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that it hasn’t been installed & running for any length of time.

Simple and frankly, useless

Anyone needing a Jewish calendar understands that the simplicity of this one has no use. How in the world is it useful enough for reviewers to say "I use it all the time?" For what, exactly? It's free, so enjoy.

Long time user

I've been using this for about 15 years now. Glad to see that it's been updated for Lion. I've stayed with Snow Leopard because it breaks some of my apps. It's nice that this is no longer in that category. Shalom

Works with Mountain Lion!!

Kudos! Great app, and so glad that it still works with Mountain Lion. 5 stars!

good to have it

Thanks for retrieving historic Jewish calendar and bringing it to the Macs.

Avi Drissman Is A Genius

"Jewish Calendar": The. Best. Ever. (Halevai, there should be a version for iPhone!)

Awesome

It would be great if the graphics were updated with themes to choose from, but it's free, so five stars.

New Version for Lion

I just downloaded the new version (2.1.3) since I recently migrated to Lion on my Mac - I have LOVED using this Jewish calendar - the old version - for the past ___ years (lots) and am looking forward to trying this one. However, why does the icon on my dock say 5771 when it is 5772??

Great, basic, free - thanks!

This is a great, basic, free Jewish calendar. More streamlined than the alternatives - not gorgeous but eminently functional. Thanks for updating this for Lion!

Great App!

This is by far the best Jewish Calendar app out there. I have been using it since Cocoa came out, and so glad it's available for Lion. Worth waiting for. I can't believe I spent money on an app that has typos in it.

One less reason to delay upgrading to Lion.

Thanks for the update, Avi! Intel support *and* incorporates the new calculations for Yom HaZikaron and Yom HaAtzmaut.

What more could we ask? (Well, Israel Daylight Savings Time, I suppose.)

great app!

Will use it all the time. Thanks for bringing it forward from the dark ages of the Toolbox!

Fantastic App!

Thanks for remaking this for Lion! I absolutely love this app and use it all the time!
