Hi there! I have no idea if these will help you or not, but I did a couple of very informal growl demos. For other list users, these also demonstrate the lion startup issues I'm having, so if anyone has time to listen, maybe they can tell me how to make Lion behave itself just a bit better. Anyway, I'm thinking that maybe if you hear them, it will help you understand how to use Growl a libble better. The quality isn't professional by any means, but just in case you're interested, here are links for downloading them. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1770137/Growl%20demo.mp3 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1770137/Troubleshooting%20Growl.mp3
Good luck, and I hope you find these useful.

What do I do to get it to notify me about syrinx and Skype? I can't get those preferences to start running till Growl gets running in their preference pain according to syrinx. Any help would be appreciated in advance. Thanks a million. Jenny and my goofy guide Brooks P,S.
