On OS X app, what is the technique to show a NSPopover when the mouse is over a NSMenuItem (like in spotlight for example).

I know it's been a while, but if you still haven't found a solution:

Register your class as a NSMenuDelegate to the menu that contains the NSMenuItem, and implement

- (void)menu:(NSMenu *)menu willHighlightItem:(NSMenuItem *)item;

then show the popover when this method is called.
