Jing for Mac - Version 1.2.5
This release brings lots of fixes and improvements. Most of these were a result of feedback we received from users. Keep it coming!
- You can now move the sun to a location without needing to hold down the Shift key. Just click in its center and drag it wherever you want, on the edge or corner of your display (except the Dock or Menubar). The Shift key method still works, and makes it easier to grab.
- The microphone used during video recording can now be selected in the Sound panel in System Preferences. This fixes problems some users had when they wanted to use a microphone other than the one Jing picked to use.
- Jing now better adjusts to adding/removing displays while running.
- Command-A can Select All text in the Name field in the Image or Video windows.
- The default name for captures no longer contains slashes or colons, and now uses the ISO date format.
- When you Save a capture, Jing remembers the folder, and defaults to that folder the next time you save.
- Also fixed bugs with Launch on Startup, placement of the More window, controls at the end of a video recording, and miscellaneous bugs with sharing.

Hello there...my jing floating icon has disappeared from my mac desktop...
I have looked everywhere along the sides and I can't seem to find it anymore...I alsoe tried re-installing jing but still no luck...and when I try to remove jing it says it is "open"...
Any ideas on what i can do???....it was working OK when I originally installed it
thanks
frank
PS...I have it working ok on my Windows PC
I also am on a mac and have to also manually switch while the video is running.
Hope they fix that one!
Hi,
I'm trying to capture something in Illustrator, and the menu bar is not showing. I thought if I moved Jing around the screen it would make a difference, but it doesn't. Any suggestions?
Hi
I've been experimenting with the video and find it's great, except the menu bar of the software I'm trying to demo gets cut off. Even though I set Jing to record the whole screen. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
I, too, installed Jing, only to have it disappear, running but invisible to the Dock, Command-Tab application switcher, and Force Quit.
To find and kill Jing, start the Activity Monitor utility. Jing will show up with its icon. It may be easier to find if you choose to view only active processes with the drop-down menu at the top. You can also type "Jing" into the filter bar. Once you have selected Jing, click the red Quit Process button at the top of Activity Monitor. Now you can Quit or Force Quit Jing.
Please put the "Save" button back, now the program has become less useful for me. As soon as I capture a flash video or grab something off the web, name it, then...???? No where to save it? Frustration for me, this is going in the wrong direction. I don't know what the program is doing once I name it and press "file" which just seems un-natural as well.
Put the SAVE option back please.

I've installed it on 2 Mac's 10.4.11, and it will not open. I click the sun icon from the applications folder, the beach ball spins for a few seconds, then nothing happens. I can then drag it to the garbage to delete the program with no problem. Sounds similar to what some other users are reporting. Is there any way to run it on Macs 10.4.11? Thanks.
