Until the past few days, a little box notifying me when I reached my daily target showed up on the screen on my mac.
Last few days it does not. I have not changed any setting I’m aware of and in face when I got to options on the project targets, it does still have a check beside show target notifications.
Can anyone tell me how to make it start showing those again please.
Thanks
Ok, well. . . today the notification did show up.
I realized that I had changed one thing, I’d checked the box that said allow writing on the day of deadline. I unchecked that yesterday and today it showed up the target met notification when I met my goal.
I don’t know if that change was what made it not show up before or if it was just a temporary glitch with my computer. But thought I’d mention that its working again and if anyone else has this issue, maybe give that a try.
Thanks!!
I’m having this same problem, but it doesn’t seem to matter whether or not allow writing on day of deadline is checked. In fact, doesn’t matter if there even is a deadline. Target notifications is checked and I’ve confirmed Growl is configured correctly, but for whatever reason, Scrivener will not show target notifications. It’s across the board in all projects, too.
Any ideas what the problem might be? Still having this problem and still awaiting a response.
Do any other types of notification work? For example can you try setting a document goal (the target icon in the footer bar) of ten words, with the notification checkbox on, and see if it triggers there? I’d have the Console log output open while you’re trying this as well.
No notifications are working. Here’s what the Console tells me:

The first time I tried this, I saw Growl was involved, so I turned off Growl notifications for Scrivener but Growl is still appearing in here.
Can you confirm if you’re using the Mac App Store version? Sandboxing may be getting in the way here. You can see there is a denied AppleEvent that triggers this console output, and that is just the sort of thing that will fail in a sandboxed program.
If you are using the MAS version, you can try using the non-sandboxed direct-download version. This will detect your receipt and unlock itself automatically. If you choose to stick with this version, you’ll probably want to migrate your support files out of the sandbox area.
On the Installing the Direct-Sale Version, it says the following:
Does this mean that to avoid this problem I’ve had with target notifications that I need to rename the direct-sale version of Scrivener something else?
In your case, if the direct-sale version avoids the problem entirely, in your shoes I would rather just replace the MAS version entirely and keep the direct-sale version named “Scrivener”. That line is meant for those that intend to run one version primarily, but occasionally want to use the other (like a beta build, or to get around a very specific bug that isn’t generally encountered). If you need to get out of the sandbox permanently, then it would make more sense to permanently switch to the direct-sale version.
Okay, I’ve switched to the direct-sale version, but still not receiving any notifications. Console doesn’t show anything about notifications whatsoever now.
EDIT: Scratch that last comment, I just opened Scrivener again to do some writing and once I deleted the stuff I used to test notifications, I got a notifications saying I fell below the word count threshold. I typed a few words and got notifications that the project target had been hit. So now everything is back to working the way it’s supposed to.
I realize I’m late to this thread, but it didn’t seem to make sense to start a new one. I’ve been a direct download user of Scrivener since the 1.x days (so, long before there was a mac store), and bought 2.x before scrivener was an option in MAS. Is there no way to fix notifications in “composition” mode without buying scrivener all over again in MAS? Thanks!
