QuickTime 7 Pro
Installing QuickTime 7 on Snow Leopard Mac OS X 10.6 from stan.k on Vimeo.
QuickTime 7 Pro is an unlocked version of QuickTime Player 7, which I use a LOT in making my time-lapse animations. Unfortunately, QuickTime Player 7 no longer comes with Mac OS X in Snow Leopard (10.6) except as an optional software add-on. This video shows you how to install QuickTime Player 7 following these online instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3678
You will need the original Snow Leopard System Install DVD.
Note: QuickTime 7 Pro is an enhanced version of QuickTime Player 7 with features that are unlocked when you pay the registration fee ($29.99 US).
I've seen access keys for QT pro on Youtube:

Snow leopard does come with a version of QuickTime called QuickTime X, but this version does not have the fabulous features I need and use.
Ambrosia Snapz Pro X
This is another bit of software that I find absolutely invaluable. I love it and think it's worth every penny of the $69.00 US I paid for it. You can download a 15-day trial here:
Automator
Automator comes packed with MAS OS and is an application that can automate many chores, such as batch file renaming. It is VERY fast. It comes with your mac - look for it in the applications folder.
Quickie
quickiephotoosx.sit - This shareware application called Quickie is something I use to resize images. A licence for it is no longer available but the demo period for trying it still works.
BBedit
BBedit_Lite_6.1_for_OS_X.zip - This freeware application called BBEdit is something I use to edit text for html. It is a freeware lite version and is no longer available but it still works.
File Deamon
file_deamon.zip - This freeware application called File Deamon is something I use to rename files. It is particularly useful for nenaming files in reverse sequential order. It is old and doesn't like the newer OS X very much, but it still works.
