I use MySQL Administrator. However, I still use CocoaMySQL as well - I find it gets in the way less, but also allows me to edit the data - not just the schema - which Admin doesn’t. Admin is most useful for changing permissions etc. ---

Check out web-based TurboDbAdmin ([http://www.turboajax.com/turbodbadmin.html](http://www.turboajax.com/turbodbadmin.html)) - not only is it quick and clean, but it’ll inspire you to write some pretty cool Ajax code with those Dojo widgets of theirs.

Im still 2 months new to OSX, but v0.5 of CocoaMysql was having some strange display problems where I had to resize the window for things to all of the sudden show themselves. I found something called CocoaMysql-SBG, which is basically someone else’s update to the last one released by the original author. Ive been using it and it seems to be working perfectly. Found it here: [Discontinued Apps | MacUpdate](http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/20492) but i think its main page is: [http://www.theonline.org/cocoamysql/](http://www.theonline.org/cocoamysql/) – All I can say for sure is so far its been good.
