GrowlTunes does not have any display #184

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Run GrowlTunes.app (always reproducible)
2.
3.

What is the expected output?
I should see the MenuBar icon. It should also display songs played in iTunes 
(when iTunes is not the foreground app).

What do you see instead?
Nothing. GrowlTunes is running, but I only know that because of Activity 
Monitor.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v1.2.1 on 10.6.6 with iTunes 10.1.2

Please provide any additional information below.
Attaching process sample file.
It used to work before iTunes 10, but I'm not sure if it stopped working before 
that because I don't always use iTunes.

I suppose we'll need to investigate this for 1.4

This was solved as user error. I had long ago set a preference for not showing 
that icon and then also forgotten that GrowlTunes does nothing while iTunes is 
in the foreground (the most common place for it to be when testing). So, it was 
my fault.

Solution:
See if you have the menubar icon turned off.
Then, to test, switch to another app and cycle through some songs with the 
keyboard controls.

Ah that makes more sense. :)

Can you indicate what preference so that if someone else finds this via google 
search they can fix it themselves?
