Nov 15, 2013 at 1:52 comment added ICL1901 Love the app. Thanks for the hard work.. My requests.. 1. remove the log in - if logged in.. 2. Any way to get SE reputation numbers? an up vote makes my day :) pretty pathetic eh!
Jan 23, 2013 at 21:06 comment added Greg Hewgill Great, that sounds like it's working normally! When opening a page, the notifier hands the URL off to the OS, which then hands it off to your configured default browser (Firefox), which doesn't know anything about the fact that you're already logged in inside the notifier.
Jan 23, 2013 at 21:00 comment added user17153 @GregHewgill Seems to work now. It doesn't log me in though when it opens up firefox. It shows the webpage, but I have to log in through my browser still
Jan 23, 2013 at 20:46 comment added Greg Hewgill Just to be clear, can you log in normally to the site through Safari itself? I'm not sure why it's not working for you. The notifier really just hands off the job of authentication to the popup browser window, and returns when it's reported as successful. Do you have a different computer you can try it on?
Jan 23, 2013 at 20:37 comment added user17153 @GregHewgill Yeah, I set it to never block cookies (on Safari) and it still doesn't work...
Jan 23, 2013 at 20:31 comment added Greg Hewgill Ok cool. You say you're able to log in through your browser, but which browser? The notifier uses Safari because that's guaranteed to be available to OS X apps. Make sure that you haven't disabled cookies or something in the Safari settings. Google's login process is different from Stack Exchange so they're not really comparable.
Jan 23, 2013 at 20:29 comment added user17153 @GregHewgill Well, it avoids the -999 error, but OpenID still won't recognize my profile. It wouldn't have anything to do with my firewall would it? Gmail's notifier doesn't have any issues with it.
Jan 23, 2013 at 20:26 comment added Greg Hewgill No, the beta version I posted is exactly the same as the latest version with the addition of a single change that attempts to avoid the -999 error. Please let me know if the version I posted avoids the -999 error or not.

Jan 23, 2013 at 19:46 comment added user17153 @GregHewgill Isn't the beta going to have more bugs than the current version though? I checked out the link you posted, but I don't understand it too well as I don't have much of a background in building apps.
Jan 23, 2013 at 8:17 comment added Greg Hewgill I hadn't seen this error before, but stackoverflow.com/questions/1024748/… provided a clue. Try hewgill.com/senotifier/stack-exchange-notifier-beta.dmg and see if that helps. Let me know whether this works for you or not. Thanks!
