Read the full changelog

Capture One is a comprehensive and user-oriented macOS application that provides the required tools to capture, organize, adjust and display your photos.

Professional photo editing app

What is more, Capture One comes with a powerful RAW image converter capable to render precise colors and display even the smallest details. Consequently, you can deliver high quality images with great color and fine detail from various DSRL’s RAW files.

The raw processing engine is accompanied by tailor-made camera profiles designed to bring out the best in your camera. You can even take pictures at higher ISO values and reduce the noise in post production.

Photo cataloger

Capture One enables you to manage and organize your pictures using custom catalogs, with advanced asset management and intuitive virtual organization. You can open multiple catalogs at the same time and share them with your clients.

Thanks to the instant tether capture feature, you can take pictures directly from within Capture One. The Live View allows you to quickly apply styles, compose your image and change the shooting settings.

Customizable user interface

What is more, Capture One helps you personalize your workspace and improve your workflow by using different workspaces according to the tasks you need to complete. You can use the Library tools to gain access to images stored in your Albums, Smart Albums and Favorites.

Additionally, you can manually sort images according to the desired criteria, create smart albums and catalog your work. You can use the search and filtering tools to further refine your search and find the desired images.

File naming and metadata editing

By using the Metadata tools you can read, updated and edit the information and even narrow your image search using metadata criteria. The built-in renaming tools helps you create custom, token-based naming systems. You just have to define your own text and tokens naming pattern and apply it to multiple photos.

On top of the above mentioned tools and features, Capture One helps you adjust and enhance your images, change their exposure and clarity. When you are happy with your changes you can create slideshows, web galleries or output your pictures in professional-looking print layouts.

Time trials hacking

This article aims to give an overall description of various strategies on time trials of software. Its findings are mostly applicable for Mac OS X (Snow Leopard), but some findings are general for other Unices and unix-like systems (Linux). A basic knowledge of Mac (or some other unix or unix-like) system is required.

It is not intended to encourage somebody to repeatedly reset the trial period in purpose to use the commercial software without payment, hence no hints for concrete software are included.

Time trials in general

Time trials allow developers to offer their software to potential customers for a short period of time (generally 2-4 weeks) so the user can explore this software in his preferred settings (own computer, calm place etc.) and decide to buy it. The trial software is sometimes combined with reduced functionality (e.g. if the output is an image, it contains a watermark with the name of the application). After the trial period expires, the application stops work (e.g. Slidepad) or the functionality is significantly reduced (e.g. you cannot save anything — applications from iWork).

Men is generally a curious creature, so he/she wonders how the applications knows, when the trial time started, wether the time trial is over and wether it is possible do some trick (I mean simple trick, not reverse engineering) and reset the trial period.

Common ways how to implement trial time

When you download and install the software with trial time, the application (software) must get know, when the trial period started and wether the trial period is finished. So let’s think how to tell the application the start date of the trial period:

The application “phones” home. If it does, anything is possible, so I won’t to analyse this case.
The applications look onto “creation” date of its binary (or other) files, for example. This method is a bit pointless, because there is nothing such a “creation date” of a file. There are several timestamps on a file, but each of them can be changed by the system (if you copy files, the new files may have the same timestamps as the original file). Moreover technically speaking such a trial is measured from installation date, which may differ from the first usage date (preinstalled computers). I haven’t met any software which uses this type of starting of the trial period.
The application is informed from outside – the most common is probably registration process when you enter your email address on the developer’s page and an email is sent to you with some code you enter into the application. The code contains information about start or end date of the trial and has some redundancy (checksum), so it is not easy to fake the date. The application doesn’t work without the code. Example of such an application: Araxis Merge.
Another method which is more comfortable for user is that the application stores silently the information about start of the trial period somewhere in the computer. When the application is run for the first time, a dialog appears with the information that the application is not registered and you have some time to try and explore it. In later runs it usually displays how many days still you can use it. This case looks very appealing for a curious man who wonders: “How is it done”? So we will later explain some basic methods. Example: Apple iWork.

Time trials overview

I leave aside the question, how the application computes the end of trial period. I assume that it simply takes current date and subtracts the start date. So one can think that it if he/she changes the current date in the computer, the application will think that the trial is not over. Yes, it may work, but please do not try it on unix (unix-like) system, this may lead to unexpected consequences. Moreover Macs use by default NTP (Network Time Protocol) daemon which synchronises the clock (it is convenient for normal user — it always displays the precise time).
