Re: istallation problems
What version of the OS were you running? What version of FinderPop were you upgrading from/to? Did the OS version change too?

Re: istallation problems
After installing FP243 FinderPop no longer works. If I remove it and reinstall the earlier version FP241 that version doesn't work any longer, either. Logging Out/In or restarting doesn't help. I am running OS 10.7.4, and FP241 used to work fine (until today).

24 hours later: After uninstalling and reinstalling FP241 and/or FP243 several times (with and without restarting), FP243 is working again -- for reasons unknown.

Re: istallation problems
Exactly how did you install FinderPop? (Should be installed by double-clicking the FP icon.)

When installed, is it "On" in the FP panel?

Re: istallation problems
Was there anything interesting printed on the console during your failed installation attempts?

The installation problem was caused by an application called 'BetterZip': if one unpacks FP243.zip using BetterZip, a window opens displaying the contents of the package including the FinderPop.prefPane. Double-clicking on the FinderPop.prefPane in this window appears to install FP, but it doesn't work afterwards. Dragging the FinderPop.prefPane from the BetterZip window to the desktop and double-clicking it there works fine.
