[reposted with clarifying edits] FIXED!!
After having Growl 1.3.3 on one of my Macs working just fine and another giving me the weird behavior of requiring 2 menu selections to get the Settings window to open with no tabs and trying every nuanced workaround/fix suggested in the relevant threads here with no change, I took the meataxe approach. I quit Growl and HardwareGrowler, dragged them from the Applications folder to the trash and emptied it, found every file and directory in ~/Library and /Library related to Growl and not part of some other app end gave them al the hearty rm -rf they so richly deserved. Also ran 'defaults delete com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp' and 'defaults delete com.growl.hardwaregrowler' to be sure. Running 'ps auxwww|grep -i growl' gave me nothing now, and 'find /Library ~/Library -name "*[gG]rowl*" ' only gave me things in other apps' directories so Growl itself was well and truly dead and gone as it deserved to be. I then fired up the AppStore, went to Purchases, and as AppStore is supposed to do, it offered me me Growl and HardwareGrowler with active Install buttons. CLICK! CLICK! wait…. wait… All downloaded and installed. Ran the apps, and Growl now works just fine. Yes, I have a few settings to set following the Growlocaust I inflicted on my system. But at least now I CAN. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
