Thank you, Eugene.

Because we've already ripped out the part of BookMacster that installs the Chrome Extension, and are now testing the new version which uses the new installation method required by Google Chrome version 21 and later, I'm not going to pursue this any further.  I'll make sure that the new version gets tested installing the Chrome extension on a non-admin account, and we'll let you know here when this next BookMacster update is available.

After uninstalling and installing it initially it says "101 (OK) 81 (OK)". When I click "Test" is says "No response from Chrome".

Are you sure that you're running Chrome 19?

No, my user account doesn't have admin privileges. I have a separate administrator account.

  • Are you sure that you're running Chrome 19?  Our Chrome extension will not install into Chrome 21, currently on the beta track, because the Chrome team is changing the game.  We're plan to fix that in the next update.  Also, Chrome 20, I think, is introducing user profiles.  There could be a profile mixup.

Hello, Eugene.

I can't quite make any sense out of that behavior and error message.

Make sure you've got the latest BookMacster version, 1.11.4.  Then, please activate BookMacster and click in the menu: BookMacster ▸ Manage Browser Add-Ons.  There are buttons to Install, Uninstall and Test the Chrome extension.  Does the Chrome extension test OK, and if not can you get it going with Uninstall - Install?

Thanks,

Jerry

Bookmacster keeps reinstalling Chrome extension

I downloaded BookMacster to evaluate it for a possible Xmarks replacement. Initially, I decided to test it locally between Chrome (19.0.1084.56) and Safari. Unfortunately there seems to be something wrong with the Chrome extension.

Every time I do import or export from BookMacster, if Chrome is running, it requests to quit Chrome and install the extension, even though it is already installed.

When I tried setting up sync agents, I got the following error in the Console log:
[code]
6/17/12 5:33:11.953 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.502: (com.sheepsystems.BookMacster.B39A11D8-7DFE-44E6-BE44-6C68EF6418D2.000.000) Bug: launchd_core_logic.c:5193 (25693):2

The Application Support/BookMacster directory does not contain "Changes" folder.
I have Xmarks extension in Chrome, but the problem persists even if I disable it.
Any ideas?
