Growl Safari - Duplicate Notifications - some stick

Posted: Mon Jul 18, 2005 4:28 pm

I've mentioned this before in another thread, but haven't gotten any specfic suggestions. With GrowlSafari, I often get duplicate Growl notices from RSS feeds. (No, I don't have duplicate RSS bookmarks BTW). This wouldn't be so bad, but the problem is that at some point many of these notifications don't disappear until I click on them (No, stickies are not enabled). Furthermore, when I click on them they open up another freakin' Safari window - so I get like 10 windows open.

What's up with this?

I'm using the beta of Growl and the latest GrowlSafari.

Do you have two growlhelperapp processes running?

Helper App?

I'm not sure, but I posted my activity log in another thread previously to address this question:

Umm.. just do this:

ps -auxww | grep -i growl

GrowlSafari stuff not in folders stated by help file

I also noted just now that Growl Safari is not where it is supposed to be located according your your help page: http://growl.info/documentation/growlsafari.php

I was looking to remove GrowlSafari, but there is no SIMBL plugins folder in my library and the GrowlSafari folder is in the "Library/InputManagers" folder. What's up with that?

The documentation applies to .7, not .7.1beta

In the terminal? OK I get this:

But I have growl disabled right now.

Ok, so that was pointless. Try doing it when you get the dual notifications.

OK - now...

Yeah, OK - sorry. See above... I started Growl, then safari, then you see the terminal feed...

Ok, so you're fine there. Are you getting dual notifs now?

Yup, but not for all my RSS feeds. If I leave Growl on, I'll continue to get new notifications, and they'll start sticking. I keep my RSS book marks in the BookmarksBar in Safari. Any issue there?

Do you have the old GrowlSafari and the new inputmanager version of GrowlSafari installed?

Hmmm... I'm not quite sure how to figure that out. The Safari Loader is 1.0 - I don't find other GrowlSafari files except for the ticket.

I thought I installed all from the beta. LMK how to uninstall the GrowlSafari parts I have now... then I'll reinstall from the beta image.

Uninstalled and physically removed all

OK - no more fooling around. I uninstalled Growl, then used spotlight to find anything with Growl in the name. I trashed them all. Now I'll reinstall all from the beta. I hope this works...

Still happening

Has anyone found a resolve for this? I am also getting duplicate Growl notifications. This is only happening with GrowlSafari for RSS feeds. Nowhere else do I get duplicate notifications. This is happening on more than one computer, one of which I had to reinstall the OS and Apps.
