However, if you're logged in on Gmail, links like "https://mail.google.com/mail/#inbox/12467129a9398d63" work just fine. Why not use that?

I'm already logged in on Gmail, but I still have the problem.

GMAIL.COM takes me directly to the Inbox. It doesn't ask me to enter the password.

p.s. I'm using Win 7, IE 8 is my default browser.

Hi,

How can I uninstall Gmail Notifier Plus. I could not find the program in Program and Features

Thanks in advance

There is no uninstall option, since the application is a single exe file.....just delete it and you are good to go.

When using small icon for my task bar, no mail count displayed.

Indeed, this is a simple feature missing since the first versions.

Hello guys,

after trying to run it, it shows this:

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm running: Windows Vista 64bit Home, 4GB Ram, Avira Antivirus and stuff.

Um... read the title of the thread.

This is a Windows 7 application.

And by the way, any chance for an update fixing the bug not allowing auto-login?

I've noticed that any time I click on a Google Apps mail link, it always takes me to a login screen with this URL:

https://www.google.com/a/DOMAIN.COM/LoginAction2?continue=http://mail.google.com/a/DOMAIN.COM/%23inbox/MAIL_ID&service=mail&Email=USERNAME&Password=PASSWORD&null=Sign+in

The program actually passes the username and password to the browser via the URL, however, the program shouldn't try to log in via this method as google does not permit it, hence the log in page. Instead it should rely on pre-existing cookies and sessions.

The correct URL it should be using is:

https://mail.google.com/a/DOMAIN.COM/#inbox/MAIL_ID

On a separate note, if the developer has gone AWOL, can we get hold of the source to implement this and other changes?

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates, still very busy.

I see a lot of people complaining about the auto login issue and yes, it seems that Google removed the possibility to do that a few weeks ago :( I think that the only solution right now would be to just open the inbox url so that at least it is working if you tick the "Remember Me" box.

It appears that this has also affected the Google Apps support so I will try to fix it as well. If anyone could lend me an account to test, that would be nice :)

I have also a lot of translations pending. I'll do my best to include them all in the next version.

As discussed before in this thread, this is a known limitation of the windows taskbar and I still haven't found any acceptable workaround.

Anyway, thanks for your patience :D

When the application starts, it won't show message panel, even if my mouse is over the taskbar icon.

I have to manually press "check for new mail" button to show the message panel.

I'm using Gmail Notifier Plus 2.1 & Win 7 32 bit Build 7600.

Yay! He's back!

I PM:ed him ;)

And thanks for replying daty2k1 - though what do you mean with "open the inbox url"?

Do you mean opening it manually each time you see you get a reply?

What would solve the problem for me would be if the application would simply open the following url:

http://mail.google.com/mail/?hl=sv&shva=1#inbox

(well, I am using swedish gmail but you get the idea)

Or was that what you meant? And how to do that?

Thanks,

Randor244 :)

Yes, that's what I meant :) I'll try to have a new version for that this week.

As for the auto-login issue, I've been using the Google Talk application for a while now and this app seems to have no problems at all regarding automatically logging in! The link Talk uses, is something like this:

Maybe you could implement something like this?

Could you add an option to NOT preview the email (when you hover over)? Just the who it's from and the subject?

Also, If you are already logged into your inbox with the page open, and then right click the app, and hit "go to your inbox", it makes you log in again. Why is that?

How do you guys get the blue circle on the e-mail count? I just get the white numbers with the red envelope.

Thanks

I just installed it and I have the same issue. :blink:

If you read the changelog on the 1st page, it will tell you this:

Change log for 2.1:

[New] Added new translations: Hebrew (with right-to-left UI), Turkish, Arabic (with right-to-left UI), Estonian, Romanian, Slovenian, Serbian & Bulgarian.

[Fixed] Updated mail counter overlay to be more readable (finally!)

Login issue is because of a change Google recently made to their email service.

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
