I have figured out the reason why FP does not work well on my environment.
Because I turned off all services at "Keyboard Shortcuts" of "Keyboard" preference pane.
We have to activate "Folder Actions Setup.." service if we want to use FP well.
Now I've activate "Folder Actions Setup.." service and FP works perfect.
Thank you.

Yes.
And I have tried to startup without all login item and other preference panes except FP. But it doesn't work well....
I will report when I find anything. Thank you.

There is no bold file name in the context menu with FP on my desktop.

Does FinderPop install correctly (ie without complaint)?
Is anything unusual printed out in Console.app when you open the FinderPop preference pane, or when you reboot?
Does clicking-in-the-unused menubar area work? (Assuming you have it enabled.)
Does clicking on the "Open FinderPop Items" button in the prefPane's "Items" tab open the FinderPop Items folder? Where is it?.
At first, I want to notice "it works very well for the users who have their home directory under /Users/".
My enviroment specific:
Machine - iMac 8.1
RAM - 2GB
OS - 10.6.2
My startup disk has 5 partition. 1st partition is startup disk. 2nd partition is my home directory. 3rd is for boot camp. 4th is for 3rd party apprications. 5th is empty.
"Open FinderPop Items" button works. "~/Library/FinderPop Items" is opened.
"clicking-in-the-unused menubar area" is OK.
"inline menu" is OK.
"desktop" & "process" submenu are OK.
contents submenu is NG.
bundle's submenu is NG.
can't open file through inline menu's appication. (Only application is started but the selected file is not opend.)
When I open a text file through FP's inline menu's text editor, console message is followed: ("mi" is a japanese text editor")

not only text editor, image file with Preview.app has same problem.

Thank you quick responce.
turly wrote:My home directory is on a separate disk and FP works for me.
What does echo ~ print when you type it into Terminal.app?
"echo ~" command returns "/Volumes/HOME". I have set my home directory to it through Acount preference pane's "Advances Option...".
turly wrote:I presume you've made a symlink to point at the new location:
- Code:
ln -s /Volumes/OtherDisk/TurlyHomeDir /Users/turly
Yes, I done it now and set my home directory to original position ("/Users/banjo") through Acount preference pane's "Advances Option...". Then restart the machine.
"echo ~" command returns "/Volumes/banjo" now.
..........but FP does not work still......
I will do clean install FP. Please let me know all files that FP creates.

thank you turly new beta
it works very well for the users who have their home directory under /Users/.
but it doesn't work well for the users who moved their home directory to other disk partition.

2.2.4b2 was working fine till my home directory was moved to other partition.
My issues are following:
• Selecting file icon on desktop through inline menu's application (such as text editor)
• Budle's content submenu on desktop
2.2.4b3 is same as 2.2.4b2.
Very sorry my poor japanglish.
