OS 10.2 kills WeatherPop!

Since I upgraded my OS X to OS X.2 my version of WeatherPop no longer works.

The icon no longer appears automatically on my menubar upon start up-- it has to be manually started each time. But once you start it, there is no more weather data for any location (only question marks). AND . . . the self-clearing process set forth in Glucose (www.glu.com) website's WeatherPop FAQ for this supposed "normal" glitch doesn't work-- ever --even though the referring weather site comes up every time in the browser. And I connect at over 1,000 kbps.

Bottom line: I paid them $8.00 for a tiny app that only worked for about a week. images/icons/mad.gif

I'm having the same problem, but I'm still using 10.1.5. It sounds like a WeatherPop problem, rather than an OS problem.

It isn't WeatherPop problem. It is the source. If you go to their web site you will see a message there about it...

WeatherPop worked for me in 10.2 until about a week ago.

I put the app in the login items list, and it starts every time. But, it stopped getting data a few days ago.

A new version of WeatherPop was posted today on VersionTracker. images/icons/smile.gif

...which doesn't seem to work either, and adding locations crashes it. Hrm. Oh well. Anyone have any luck?

Same here. It works with existing location but not new ones.
