Zingg!


One of the utilities I miss most, having made the move to OS X, is FinderPop, specifically the ability to Control-click on a file and choose the opening app from a contextual menu. This is where Zingg! comes in, restoring that exact same functionality.

With Mac OS X, file-application binding has changed. If you have older files generated in previous versions of the Mac OS, or files downloaded from the Internet, you’ll often find that double-clicking on a file doesn’t open the right application for your needs.

Zingg! comes to the rescue. A simple Finder Contextual Menu, it shows you all applications that claim to open a particular file.

Highly recommended.
