Yojimbo empowers Mac users to manage, effortlessly and securely, the onslaught of information encountered every day at work and at home, even across multiple computers. Yojimbo stores different data types: text notes, passwords, Web bookmarks, product serial numbers, PDFs, and Web archives.
Data input into Yojimbo follows familiar Mac user interface gestures such as copy-and-paste, drag-and-drop, a Quick Input Panel, or PDF Services from the Print menu. Searching and retrieval are instantaneous, using either Yojimbo's built-in search, or the Spotlight search system in OS X.
Note: Yojimbo 4.0 is a free upgrade for those that purchased Yojimbo 3.x after June 14, 2013.
Version 4.0:
- Yojimbo's internals have been rewritten to use a new sync mechanism, in the wake of MobileMe's shutdown. It is not based on iCloud; see here for details on why.
- Yojimbo uses the Wasabi Sync sync service. For complete details on how to set up and use synchronization, choose "Syncing" from the Help menu.
- Full screen support has been added for the main Yojimbo window and for discrete item windows. Some other windows have been designated as "auxiliary" windows, so that when in full screen mode, they can be opened without causing a Spaces switch.
- Yojimbo now requires OS X 10.8.2 or later.
- In support of the sync system change, there has been a database format change. Your existing Yojimbo data will be converted, and this process is irreversible. (Yojimbo will make a backup of your current stored data before converting to the new format.)
- Once you upgrade to 4.0, you cannot go back to a previous version of Yojimbo without restoring your old data from a backup. Note also that if you do have to go back to your backed up data, you will lose any additions or changes you have made since backing up. This cannot be avoided.
- When starting the application from somewhere other than /Applications/ (or ~/Applications/), you're now offered the opportunity to relocate it to /Applications. This provides a better first-run experience.
- Fixed crash which was reported when the Microsoft Exchange plug-in poked data into the Address Book's database and somehow we got notified.
- Fixed internal exception and crash which would occur when using the "Add Hyperlink" command to add a link at the insertion point of a note (rather than annotating selected text).
- The built-in software update mechanism now uses https to connect to the update server for fetching update information, and verifies the downloaded update before installation to guard against tampering or corruption. This fixes CVE-2013-3667; thanks to Chris Hickstein for the report.
- Fixed bug in which the scrollbar calibration in the Tag Explorer didn't work correctly, nor did the scrollbar auto-hide when it should have.
- Corrected the VoiceOver descriptions for the Add Collection button and the Actions button in the collection list.
- Fixed a bug which which interfered when trying to reconcile multiple encryption passwords.
- OS X 10.8.2 or later
