ForkLift - File Manager and FTP/SFTP/WebDAV/Amazon S3 client App Reviews

This application not running on Yosemite

Good file manager: fast, simple and powerful. I cannot say does it cost it’s money, I bought it with the great deal. Like it.

S3 storage supports setting HTTP headers for each file, did not find this feature in ForkLift.

I install Yosemite 10.10 and ForkLift no longer runs.

Crashes immediately after start. 10 days since new OS release and not fixed still...

Periodically hangs in Yosemite. Hey, developers! Please wake up and fix this annoying issue.

The title is self-explanatory. I have one problem with keyboard shortcuts: when you make another shortcut for "Close Tab" it reverses to original. Step to reproduce: 1) open Preferences, make "Close Tab" shortcut “Ctrl+W” ("Close Window" is empty now because it was "Ctrl+W" before) 2) use “Ctrl+W” to close tabs, it works… well, sometimes 3) from time to time "Ctrl+W” closes window, not the tab 4) open Preferences and see that “Ctrl+W” is reserved for… “Close Window”, but still sometimes it closes tabs, sometimes windows Definitely some bug here. I will change rating to 5 stars if it’s fixed. Update: Fixed in 2.6.4. Thanks. I changed rating to 5 stars as promised.

The great app! It works for all tasks! Thans)

I like the app, but lately it hangs on each startup saying “Opening workspace…”. After I reinstall the app, it works fine once, and then starts hanging again.

SSH connection broken after update to El Capitan.

There are many annoying bugs travelling year after year. For example, you can’t rename the file or folder while app is ‘thinking’ trying to refresh a folders content. Sometime you can’t do this even refresh is complete for unknown reason. Another sore thing is a file’s or folder’s creation on a remote server. You are trying to do this but all of the app functions are suddenly turning unavailable as well as all of the menus turning gray and all that you can do is to restart ForkLift. And finally — the stone-age feauture! There are no settings in the cloud, e.g. you’re must to reproduce the app settings on each Mac you are working. For example, if you setup a new connection on the Mac at work, you’ll have to repeat it at home to get access. Seriously thinking to move to another app.

Doesnt work on MacOs Sierra for a long time. Update pls.

Ive purchsed Forklift because Ive needed to move several files between two different sources and combine it together. Forlift represents itseld as THE FILE MANAGER for OsX but it cannt merge two directories together and it asks, as the standard Finder, if you want to overwrite the destination directory with the new content. Honestly, for me, are 24€ wasted. For the File Transfer capabilities Ive nothing to say, I didnt tested them. There are plenty of Free products able to perform equally, CyberDuck just to make a name. I do not know if this is a limitation imposed to put the program in the Mac AppStore but, for my need, is totally useless.

Great App! The only thing is that I tried version 2.08 and file transfer with big folders was faster before. There was a percentage indicator and now we have a more detailed info about the transfer, but very very slower…please correct this and Ill give 5 stars immediately

I file .htaccess presenti nellftp non vengono visualizzati e non vengono copiati facendo la copia dei file dallftp allhd o verso un altro ftp. Ho perso un sacco di tempo per capire perchè il mio sito non funzionava e il problema era che non questapp non aveva copiato il file .htaccess! The .htaccess are not visible in the ftp space, are not considered and they are not copied when i copy files from ftp to hd or ftp to another ftp.

Simple and Rock solid app. 5 stars!!!

Please add iCloud sync required for Bookmarks!

Ottimo e ottima assistenza.

This is, in my opinion, the best ftp/sftp client. Invaluable support from developers. Thank You Secondo me questo è il miglior client ftp presente nell’App Store. Il supporto degli sviluppatori è inestimabile. Grazie
