What is Secondbar?
SecondBar is a Tool which allows you to have more than one menubar in Mac OS X. This is useful if you have multiple monitors connected to your mac. See this post for more information: http://blog.boastr.net/?p=3

November 18th, 2009 at 3:06 amYou’re a serious idiot. Macs have been the superior multi-screen OS for decades. Before Windows could even handle two screens poorly, Macs were doing up to nine screens. Windows still can’t match Mac’s capabilities.

November 20th, 2009 at 11:18 amHey Andreas,
I tryed SecondBar on Snow Leopard, it works fine ! Thank you, it’s very usefull for me.
But do you know if your software is compatible with Leopard because on my second Mac I tryed and the software didn’t launch at all.
I planned to migrate to Snow Leopard, but it could be a good help.Thank you and great job !

November 24th, 2009 at 10:55 pmHi Great tool that makes quite a difference. Here is a little feedback. I use ScreenRecycler on my laptop, so I end up with 3 screens (the laptops, 24″ Monitor and 19″ monitor hanging off the ScreenRecycler VNC screen) can SB handle 3 screens?
Thanks for the great tool.

November 25th, 2009 at 6:47 amI love your app.
Are you planning on adding “Window to previous monitor” and “Maximie window to previous monitor”? I have 4 displays and would love to have tip-tap-left and right cycle windows in both directions.

December 7th, 2009 at 7:57 pmGreat App! Love it!
If you’ve more boring weekends, I’d love to have help searches and Icons enabled. It would be great if your app would just be an enlargement of the existing menu, because I’ve too many icons they dont fit on one xD.

December 14th, 2009 at 7:49 pmThank you for this — it’s wonderful! What are the chances of getting a “ThirdBar” as well? My third monitor feels left out…

December 14th, 2009 at 10:03 pmI’m loving Secondbar; thanks so much for the app!
One suggestion: When repositioning windows (great feature btw), it would be nice if Secondbar could detect the top (or height) of the Dock and adjust the height of the resized window appropriately. (Maybe 10 pixels above the Dock?) Thanks again for a great app.
Also, you might want to take a look at an app called UltraMon (for Windows only). It might be helpful for some ideas of future features for Secondbar. I used it for years on the PC.

December 14th, 2009 at 10:18 pmHaim: simply drag the application from the Applications folder in a Finder window to the Trash.
If you still need help you can always go to google.com and do a search for, “uninstall mac application” or something similar.
