Google Notifier not updating as frequently as you like? Me neither! Until now!!
Do you need email as if it was sugar to a diabetic? I sure do. That’s why I’ve got my crackberry for when I’m on the go or just away from my mac. When I am at my mac, I’ve been relying on Google Notifier to tell me when I have new mail. It would check every 3-8 minutes which drove me crazy until today. I’ve got it checking now every minute by using a SUPER simple fix I found via a Google Groups discussion.
I’ll give you the steps to make it easy for you.
- Click on you Google Notifier
- Press Option + Command together
- Click on preferences, if a new window appreared with two fields in it, you did it correct.
- In the “Key” field, type “AutocheckInterval”
- In the “Value” field, type a number 1…60, I would like it updated every minute so I put in “1″
- Click “Set”
- Quit Google Notifier by pressing Command + Q
- Open Google Notifier
There you go. All the steps you need to have Google Notifier update every minute or as frequently as you’d like.
