Hi all, thanks for all your comments they are much appreciated
Since I use C Cleaner on my PC and since one of you guys mentioned a version
for the Mac, is there anyone on this list who uses this programme and does
it look different from the PC version, but most importantly is it accessible
with VoiceOver?
Thanks
Daniel

You have to interact with the toolbar and navigate to the, Pilot,
button. Activate that with VO space, stop interacting with the toolbar
and select the, tasks, tab. The scheduler is disabled in the beta of
Cocktail 5. However, the tasks will allow you to run basic Mac
maintenance. I pretty much leave everything checked and run it.

By and large, the vast majority of maintenance needed for the Windows
operating system is not necessary for the Mac. Disk operations and
general OS activities do not require as much TLC as the various forms of
Windows.
With that said, there is a version of C Cleaner for Mac. You also
have Cocktail, Mac Janitor and a few others. I think Onyx is another
one, but I'm not sure. This really comes down to the individual user as
to how much they really think they need a maintenance program. If you
are really that concerned as to the need for one, you can always read
the various Mac forums for the different takes of other users.
Personally, I run disk permissions checks and Cocktail once in a
while, but that's about it.

Hi all, since I don't own a Mac I'd just like to know for those who use
a Mac what do you recommend that is free for some TLC LOL meaning
Cleaning once in a while. You see I use Disk Cleanup that is built in
Windows and a Free programme called C Cleaner to do my clean up once in
a while.
I am mainly looking for a programme that cleans up the Run Dialog box
(if the Mac has one) also to clean out the History in Safari, Temporary
files stuff like that all in one programme but most importantly it
being Voiceover Compatible and Free.
I look forward to hearing from you all. I just want to know so when the
time comes when I get a Mac, I'll know what to download and start using
and overall be more prepared for when I get one.
Thanks
Daniel
