MUMenu is a menubar item application that will check periodically for daily Mac OS X software updates at MacUpdate. You'll be able to browse small descriptions of the updated products, go to More Info pages, and download them. Highlighted updates (Hot Picks) are highlighted in red, and applications that are already installed on your Mac will display its appropriate icon. When a new update is posted, MUMenu icon in the menu bar will change color.
Problems? If MUMenu does not perform properly in any way, quit it and trash its preferences file (do a Find for "com.macupdate.mumenu.plist"), then relaunch MUMenu.
Note: Requests for additional features will not be followed through unless many people request the same feature. We don't want to bloat the software. We take the 37signals.com approach to software. Lean and mean.
Version 2.1.2:
- Now a Universal binary application, compatible with Intel Macs, and only compatible with Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
Mac OS X 10.4 or later, internet connection.

TOMDOHERTY Having experienced what life is like without this app I've decided it deserves 5 stars now that it's back in action. Well done to the 'fixer' person(s).

PINK PANTHER It was only when MuMenu went dead for a couple of days that I have realized how much I am used to this tiny elegant application. This is then easily transformed into 5 stars on the Pink Panther scale.

MACUPDATE ADMIN Yesterday I called this to the attention of the persons in charge of such matters. I use MUMenu too, and have been _very_ disappointed that it is not working. I am told that it is currently being worked on. A fix should be along any time now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

SAJDAK70 Yes! I thinked it was problem only on my computer, but I know that is on many comps. What's happened? When the problem will be fixed? I used to use MUMenu for its stable run and low memory usage. I see everything what I need at one sight.

SARASWATI I love MUMenu and use it everyday. Thanks! However, I have a little problem: I just upgraded to version 2.1.2 from the previous version and now the icon is in a different place in the menu bar. One is supposed to hold down the Command key and drag icons in the menu bar to rearrange them, but that does not work with MUMenu. Is there another way to move the icon in a different place on the menu bar?

MACUPDATE ADMIN Sorry to get back to you so late. MUMenu is not a true menubar item such as Apple makes, so it can't be moved in the same way as an Apple menubar item. But you can try quitting MUMenu, then delete the MUMenu .plist (preferences) file, it is named: com.macupdate.mumenu.plist Then relaunch MUMenu... Maybe that will make it appear in a different/preferable location.

SARASWATI Thanks very much for the info. I deleted the .plist file and restarted and now the icon is in its proper place in the menu bar. Thanks!

PAGANSOUL I love Yep. I have tons of ebooks and manual on my MacPro, thousands, and setting up Yep I found stuff I long forgot about. Great having one place where I can distingish between Classic novel, romance, sci-fi, how-to manuals, short stories and my journal all in one place. Have not even gotten into checking out the other stuff.

MACUPDATE ADMIN Great, me too, love Yep. But this is the MUMenu page for MUMenu reviews. Not for Yep reviews.

MUDFLAPPER Love MUMenu. Never had a single problem with it in all the years I've been using it. Add the ability to filter results and my Features rating of 4 will jump to a 5.

PMCARRION There's a hidden shortcut in MUmenu. Whenever I have it running and press F7 at any time, it opens a browser window that links to a download page at MacUpdate. Yesterday was RealCADD and it was automatically downloaded, and today is Desktop Manager but it only shows the information page. How can I disable this? This should be documented, I thought there was a virus or spyware in my Mac.
