Growl 1.3 - no alerts
Growl has been upgraded to a full-fledged application sold ($1.99 and well worth it, in my opinion) in the Mac's App Store. The old pref pane is now gone - removal is required as part of the installation process - and the new application has several more features.
Sadly, though, the new version does not appear to be compatible with the latest version of SD. It would be very much appreciated if the good folks at Shirt Pocket could make the appropriate changes to SD so that Growl 1.3 would function with it. SD, it should be said, is my #1 indispensable application - no matter how much convenience is offered by others the security of knowing that I've got a complete, accurate, usable backup available at any time makes it the only aftermarket application that I truly wouldn't live without. Thanks, as always, for the great work. |

It's unfortunate that Growl has broken compatibility in the latest update. I recommend not using the new version until we get a chance to investigate what might be wrong. I can't promise any timeframe for a fix.

Unfortunately sticking with the earlier/pref pane version isn't an option for me as so many other alerts broke in Lion (starting to regret leaving Snow Leopard for lots of reasons including this one). Thankfully SD is so reliable that I can trust it to run and will simply change the final result from "Quit SuperDuper!" to nothing so that I can see the application showing "OK" when I get to my desk in the morning after it runs at 4:00 AM. |

Fix for me
I had the same problems with SuperDuper notifications. Deleting the two Growl .plists in Library, Preferences solved the problem on my machine.
com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp.plist com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp.plist.lockfile |
I fixed mine by replacing the Growl Framework in SuperDuper with the Growl SDK 1.2.2 framework. I now get alerts as I did before.

Joel...
How exactly does one do that? While I'd still like to here's what you did, Joel, and why, I'd also like to mention that I tried Airbusky's approach and that fixed the problem for me. |

Note that scheduled copies use apple events, which you'd think would be compatible in the new version, but may not be...

At some level, the question is why did they break it?
