Most likely it's some applescript that needs to be updated. Do you have any widgets or anything of that nature?

so - I just upgraded my mac from 10.6.8 to 10.8.2 (don't ask why it took so long). After the upgrade, I ran the growl uninstaller script, bought growl 2.0 on the itunes store, and installed that. Now I'm getting a request from some app to find growlhelperapp. I can't figure out which app is doing that. To troubleshoot this, I've uninstalled the new growl and re-ran the uninstall script. I'm still getting requests to find growlhelperapp. Anyone know how to:

1) find out which app is doing that
2) get rid of that stupid request window for ever
3) make sure that growl will work after I reinstall it?

Thanks,

Juan

Sorry - I didn't notice the reply. I killed all of the widgets running on my box and that wasn't it. I haven't been been able to correlate an event to the notification coming up. Is there some way to see what's kicking it off?

thanks for the reply btw .

Not really. It'll be a process of elimination unfortunately.

Ya I've been trying to figure out if there is a way to do that, but there isn't as far as I know. If I come up with some random idea I'll let you know though.

Hi Chris and Juan,

I have had this problem and the best way to solve this I have found is to redirect the call to "GrowlHelper" to Growl :
To do that when you are called for GrowlHelper.app, find Growl.app, click on it (to select it) and click OK to accept.

I don't remember the exact for the same reason I have already explained (I am french, use OS X in french and Growl too !)

But I never returned to the dialog !

Cheers !

Just happened again. Trying your solution. Hopefully this will work. If I don't see the pop up in a few days, I'll let everyone know.

Thanks again,

JuanĀ
