+ Skype has new window!
Even with Growl *NOT* running, VO *STILL* tells me that Skype has new window every time a contact changes status. AIM doesn't do this, either in Messages or in the AIM client. That's my biggest chunk of cow, and apparently it's not a Growl issue? • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: + Skype has new window!
I get the same thing. I didn't realize it was when a contact changed, but it definitely happens. No idea why.

Re: + Skype has new window!
Well, the fix is easy. Just go in to your skype prefs/Notifications/general tab and from there, select Growl for the screen notifications. HTH. For some reason, it goes back to the default with every update. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Re: + Skype has new window!
I just stopped Growl, and before that I removed Skype from its table of applications for which it has set preferences, trying to get this to stop, and that was before I updated Skype. The behavior hasn't changed from before the update. I'll reboot with Growl up and the Skype references changed to see if that fixes it. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: + Skype has new window!
Gee, you made much too much work for yourself for nothing. All you really needed to do was go in to your Sype prefs window via command/comma, and, from there, go to the tool bar and choose the notifications tab. From there, choose the overview tab. Inside here, just VO=right until you see the type of notification style. If it keeps saying Skype has new window, it's set for default notifications. You want to set this for Growl. then, you're set.

Re: + Skype has new window!
*nods* I see that, but now, I have the problem where I removed Skype from Growl's applications table, and can't add it back. *grin* B Before stopping Growl altogether, I tried removing Skype, thinking some of my other apps might want to use Growl. When I continued to hear Skype has new window all the time, I went ahead and stopped Grow. That didn't fix it either, and now we're up to today. *laugh* I guess I'm stuck with it. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: + Skype has new window!
If your directions are correct, I am curious why just turning off visual notifications entirely does not get rid of the Skype has new window announcements. I don't have Growl, so that choice is dimmed in my case. But I unchecked Display visual notifications, and I still get numerous new window announcements. I want them to go away.

Re: + Skype has new window!
Is there a way to use the system voice with Skype to announce who comes online? Perhaps that would get around Skype saying it has a new window when someone comes online or sends a chat, so it could be put to good use.

Re: + Skype has new window!
Yes, in fact, that's precisely what I have it doing now--using the system voice to announce status changes. After every time this is announced, or if message from Rachel, or whomever, is spoken, VO speaks up about the new window. It's not a Growl issue at all, apparently. nor a visual notifications issue. Quite odd. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

*bow* Honor is to serve. (only a slight smirk). In Skype, go to Preferences, Notifications, and select the details, tab. There you'll find a pop-up button for the event you want to set, and options below that.
