LOL! I wish I would have known that $4 ago. I bought growl and hardware growler because at the time, I was even more of a mac newbie than I am now, and what I was reading on this list and from the growl website itself is that the old version wouldn't work under lion. I wonder what the differences are, other than what I've described for you guys. I guess I'll keep using what I have since I paid for it, but if the old versions still work with lion, I almost wish I could get my money back. Thanks for letting me know the old versions are still useable, though. It's good to know.

I just can't figure out how to insure that all the extras run at startup, and so far, nobody is answering that; they're just asking me more questions. LOL! Basicly, I guess my question at this point is how the heck to add stuff to startup on the mac. I know people clame to run skype or their twitter client at startup, but how is it done. If someone can tell me that, then I think I'll be all set with getting all the various growl tools to work on a permanent basis. I don't know if there's a place I can find documentation to answer my questions. > Anyway, once you track down all the extras you want, you'll go to the > growl tool bar, again, this is in your apps folder and you just open growl to > find it.

I really want them all to work at all times, but I know the hardware > growler in particular won't do anything unless I open it manually. Still trying to figure out about the others. Is there a startup folder I can add them to like in windows to be sure they'll run? > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jessica > Sent: Friday, December 16, 2011 12:30 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: More Growl questions > > Oh cool, will look into that; how do you go about configuring them, or > is it as simple as setting them up?
