Logos 4 icon in my menu bar -- the new normal?

Just got alpha 8, thank you! In earlier alphas, the Logos 4 icon would appear up on the right side of my menu while the s/w was downloading updates and indexing. Then after a few hours (*cough* or a few days *cough*) it would go away, presumably once indexing was finished. But starting with alpha 7, this icon never went away. Is this icon now a permanent resident of my menu bar?

It shouldn't be.

I'd be interested to see your log files (instructions on gathering and posting log files in the FAQ linked in my signature).

I will let you know. At this moment, the menu bar icon says it is downloading updates. Regrettably it's been stuck at 95% for a while. I'll try and be patient.

Sigh. It's stuck here. Even after a reboot of my MacBook. Ideas on how to jumpstart the downloading process? TIA

Ok, started following your instructions. I canceled indexing and downloading, and the icon disappeared. When I restarted L4, it started up again and apparently figured out how to finish downloading on its own. After a few minutes the menu bar icon disappeared. Apparently this is not the new normal after all.

Thanks.

James, this may have worked itself out for you, but had you posted the logs as requested the developers might have been able to find and fix a bug to prevent this error for others in the future. Remember, Alpha testing is not just about fixing "our" bugs, it is about making it work for everyone else who comes after us. If you can do this in the future with bugs, it would be a great help. The more bugs we find and logs we post, the faster we get this from Alpha to full release. :-)
