[Introduction to Members Show] Now that iOS5 has a great notification service, isn't it a pity that OSX doesn't! All is not lost, however, as you can add a system wide notification service into OSX, with the installation of Growl.
Even better, application events captured by Growl can now be forwarded to your iOS device using Prowl.
Well you can do all this and more with the installation of two third party applications - Growl and Prowl
**Growl** - Growl has been around for a while as a free open-source Mac service. The original version has been supported by lots of the leading Mac applications and acts as a framework to collect, collate and display alerts from installed applications on your Mac. The latest version has recently been released in the Mac App Store, for the first time as a "paid" application. The new version is Lion enabled and contains many new and improved features such as support for sandboxed applications, some new networking support and a rather nifty "roll up" display. As it is a brand new version, some applications previously supporting the older version of Growl will not work with the new version, and will need updating.
In the screencast, I demonstrate the install process and how to configure alerts and notifications on an application by application basis. I also demonstrate some typical scenarios using Twitter and iVi video encoder.
**Prowl** - Prowl is an inexpensive iOS universal application for your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. In conjunction with a free plugin for Growl and a free web service, Growl is able to send alerts from your Mac directly to you iOS device, and have the alerts appear as notifications - very cool!
The screencast demonstrates the installation of Prowl and it's plugin, along with the configuration of some simple alerts. I also take you through some of the other features of Prowl such as send alerts from any service using your own Prowl email address.
In addition to the main topics of the tutorial, I've also included a small section on how to search the ScreenCastsOnline website to track down previous tutorials.
