Memory Cleaner 2.2 - Utility That Improves the Performance of Any Mac

Summary:

Alice Dev Team today announces Memory Cleaner 2.2, an update to their best-selling computer memory utility for Mac OS X. Memory Cleaner improves the speed and responsiveness of a Mac computer by freeing wasted memory. Strongly recommended for power users who deal with many or very large files, Memory Cleaner is a one-touch solution to recoup as much RAM as possible for use. Version 2.2 sports a new menu bar icon, as well as now shows free memory in the menu bar.

Body:

Novosibirsk, Russian Federation – Alice Dev Team today is pleased to announce an updated version of their Memory Cleaner utility app for Mac OS X. Every time a file is opened, it continues to occupy some memory, even after it’s closed. Our utility cleans out residue from these old files, freeing memory. The more memory is available, the faster apps will run.

Awarded 9 out of 10 stars by MacTech. According to statistics, it practically never froze or malfunctioned since initial launch nearly a year ago.

Starting June 1st, new more severe rules come into effect for Mac App Store developers. Apple created a sandbox system meant to increase user security. All new Mac apps must run inside this sandbox, and will have practically no possibility to affect the computer’s behaviour. This means that app quality requirements will increase considerably. Memory Cleaner is the first app to pass Apple’s moderation using the new rules. We predict that the number of apps will decrease by 30% after June 1st, since not all developers are capable of obeying the new rules.

Strongly recommended for power users who deal with many or very large files, Memory Cleaner is a one-touch solution to recoup as much RAM as possible for use. Memory Cleaner users typically recover 200 – 500 MB of Random Access Memory. This prevents slow-downs and crashes. Users only need to click on “Clean My Memory” – that’s it!

A computer can sometimes freeze or stall for several seconds when using an app. The most common cause of this is the operating system searching for and freeing memory that’s being wasted. Memory Cleaner is a fast and simple solution to avoid having to re-start your computer or buy more memory. More memory for apps results in a noticeably faster computer.

“There is no simple way to force OS X to let go of the memory that is inactive, and thus unavailable for use,” stated CEO Stanislav Kuptsov. “Rather than allowing available RAM to drop to dangerously low levels, power users can easily run Memory Cleaner and keep their machines running smoothly.”

System Requirements:
Memory Cleaner v.2.2 requires an Intel based Macintosh, Mac OS X 10.6 or greater and 0.5MB of hard disk space.

Pricing and Availability:
Memory Cleaner v.2.2 is $5.99 (USD) and available worldwide through the Mac App Store in the Utilities category. Review copies are available upon request.

Get Plain Text provides a simple solution for users who want to copy formatted text – the app allows users to convert text to plain text.

“If you use the copy/paste functions in Mac OS, then you know how big of a pain it can be to manually convert formatted text,” says Stanislav Kuptsov, CEO of ZipZapMac. “We developed Get Plain Text to provide a solution to this everyday frustration, and think anyone who needs to convert text to plain text will appreciate how valuable Get Plain Text is. This app will lower your stress level and save you tons of time.”

Get Plain Text is a practical utility program offered as a solution to the frustrations faced in converting formatted text on Mac OS. The program converts copied text into plain text without any hassle. It instantly removes all unneeded formatting, including: colors, typeface size, style (boldface, italics, etc.), hyperlinks, images, and anything else that is not plain text.

"Get Plain Text will convert any bit of text into plain text, no matter where you copied it from (a website, PDF document or elsewhere). You can activate the feature manually, or check “Automatically remove formatting” to make the app take care of it every time you copy something, allowing it to convert text to plain text."
