1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!, July 27, 2008

I gave this product 1 star, and thats misleading since I can't give it negative 50 stars. This product states that it will improve your systems performance, and it will after you reinstall Mac OS X and finish restoring all your files. I tried this product and experienced what other people have complained about in that most of my applications were deleted, and my mac restarted in what appeared to be a Unix terminal ( black screen, white letters, type the commands yourself ) . Nothing I tried saved my hard drive, and I lost all my important data. Thankfully I had backed up my hard drive on an external hard drive, and recovering my data was not impossible. The instructions stated it was a good idea to backup important data, and I guess they knew what they were talking about. If I had a choice between paying 30 dollars for this program again, or paying someone 30 dollars to beat my truck with a sledge hammer, My truck would need alot of repair work. Do your self a favor and save your money.

this product its terrible..
the packaging and the way is designed its simple and make you think it's easy to use.. right?

I ran it on my computer, supposedly was going to clean the system of caches and junk occupying memory.. it made my compuer crash.. when I restarted my computer, guess what.. ALL OF MY APPLICATIONS AND UTILITIES were gone... yes.. all of them.. even the ones included in the OSX system.

in the instructions says.. do not force quit while running.. I didn't it just crashed...


I paid 30 dollar and I ended up losing 20 times that... now I am trying to figure out what to do.

Oye... don't do it! don't you dare click on that button. Do not buy this, do not download it, not even if it was free I would use this evil software ever. I have an iMac that has been giving me odd problems so I figured this would help me find out what is going on... yeah, I wish I had the odd problems instead of the wipe out I got thanks to this, they should change the name from MacTuneUp to i-Fkd-UPmyMac...
