10.6.7

[panchovilla99]

Hi: I just installed 10.6.7 and Growl doesn't work. What should you
do? Thanks.

Aaaargh! This is true. Upgrading to OS X 10.6.7 also contains an
update to Apple Mail which breaks growl. The upgrade was not worth it,
and Apple doesn't mention an update to Apple Mail in the standard
release propaganda.

I always expect it. I guess I'm just used to it now...

What version number does Growl show in the About tab of its preference pane in System Preferences?

What applications are you trying to use with Growl?

Updating Mail won't break Growl, since they have nothing to do with each other. The only thing a Mail update can break is GrowlMail.

I have installed Growl in the version 1.2.1 and the Growmail was the
version 1.2.3 and on having updated the operating system to 10.6.7,
Growmail has stopped working because apparently E-mail has been
updated to the version 4.5.

I'm running 10.6.7 (Build 10J3250) and I'm getting notifications. The only thing that didn't work out of the box was GrowlMail.

I didn't want to wait for an update to Growl for Mac OS X 10.6.7 (all
due respect of course to the Growl team) and if I break it, it is my
fault.

Having said that, I ran this:

defaults read /Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Info
PluginCompatibilityUUID
defaults read /System/Library/Frameworks/Message.framework/Resources/
Info PluginCompatibilityUUID

to get the UUIDs I need:

9049EF7D-5873-4F54-A447-51D722009310
1C58722D-AFBD-464E-81BB-0E05C108BE06

and then (with Mail closed) I copied GrowlMail.mailbundle from ~/
Library/Mail/Bundles (Disabled...) (the latest one) into ~/Library/
Mail/Bundles

Then I edited ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/GrowlMail.mailbundle/Contents/
Info.plist

and in the area under <key>SupportedPluginCompatibilityUUIDs</key>

I added:

<string>9049EF7D-5873-4F54-A447-51D722009310</string>
<string>1C58722D-AFBD-464E-81BB-0E05C108BE06</string>

saved the file and now Growl is once again working...

Hi

thanks I can confirm this works.

the added strings are in the your user name library

whilst the first 2 are in the mail folder and system library.

my codes were identical.

thanks
