Notifications not working on Mac OSX

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Test SMS will not show notification
2. "Send Test Notification" does not show notification
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I installed Remote Notifier 0.2.8. on my Galaxy S phone running Android 2.1 a 
few days ago, and MacDroidNotifier on my OSX 10.6.6. system and it worked 
perfectly right out of the box.  Yesterday, notifications stopped working.  I 
checked all settings on Remote Notifier, MacDroid Notifier, and Growl; nothing 
has changed and it should still be working, but the notifications are not 
appearing on my Mac. Little Snitch and Advanced Task Killer have been 
configured not to interfere with Remote Notifier and MacDroidNotifier.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

MacDroidNotifier 0.2.9
OSX 10.6.6
Android 2.1
Remote Notifier 0.2.8
Growl 1.2.1

Please provide the log output if possible (from the alogcat app on android,
Show Log menu on the multiplatform client, or Console on native mac app):

I have this problem as well. I check checked the Android Notifier Desktop 
settings, and Grown Notification Transport Protocol is checked (and so is 
'system default'). Ping is set to enabled.

On my phone, I click 'send test notification'. I am using the Wifi broadcast 
method, with encryption enabled.

On my Mac, in the Console app, I see:

2/6/12 2:57:43.728 PM [0x0-0x145145].com.notifier.android-notifier-desktop: 
2012-02-06 14:57:43,727 INFO [NotificationManagerImpl] - Notification received: 
notificationId=1258068708464214, type=Ping

But I don't get a Growl notification.

I also noticed that in the Growl Settings, I don't see Android Notifier Desktop 
listed as an Application, so I am guessing the app didn't get registered with 
Growl for some reason.

I've since upgraded to OSX 10.6.8 and Android 4.0.2, and I still can't get this 
to work.

Hi Guys, I am experiencing this issue but resolved it. I had my system firewall 
running.
Although a TCPDUMP showed the notification packet being received by my mac it 
wasn't being passed to the application.

in /var/logs/appfirewall.log
May  8 11:27:59 essmark Firewall[58]: Deny MacDroidNotifier data in from 
10.0.0.91:35731 uid = 0 proto=17

Try checking your firewall settings.

little snitch was the culprit for me. I just allowed all local network 
connections and it seemed to do the trick. As well as 'allow incoming 
connections" in the OSX security firewall itself
