Now you've succeeded, so you can turn Growl back on. :-) Then we're back to your original problem of the Growl menu-bar item not entering the Login Items list. This is the first we've heard of any such problem, and it does not happen for me. To fix it, we need either a complete description of the nature of the bug (not just symptoms but a description of where and how the code goes wrong), or steps to reproduce that work for us. It's possible that this is a bug in Tiger itself, fixed in Leopard. If that's the case, there's probably nothing we can do about it and it's certainly not worth our time to work around a problem that's already been fixed in shipping Mac OS X for two years. Much easier on all involved, I think, would be for you to simply add GrowlMenu to the Login Items directly. Here's how you do that: 1. Find the Growl prefpane. Spotlight is the easiest way to do this. 2. Once you're looking at it in Finder, right-click on it and choose Show Package Contents. 3. Open Contents, then Resources. Among the items there is GrowlMenu.app. 4. Open System Preferences and open the Accounts pane. 5. Drag GrowlMenu into the Login Items list. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
