How to do an iPhone to Mac sync of Life Balance in your favorite coffee house

So you're in the local coffeehouse, trying to sync Life Balance on your iPhone to your laptop. You've checked that both are on the coffeehouse WiFi network. You've gone through the little song-and-dance in your web browser to accept the coffeehouse WiFi terms and conditions so you can surf the internet. Your web browser works, email works, but Life Balance won't sync. It works at home, so why isn't it working in the coffeehouse?

Llamagraphics support center catching up on misplaced email

This afternoon we discovered a configuration problem with our support center software which prevented us from seeing many of your follow-ups to your helpdesk tickets. We could see new tickets and emails sent directly to support@llamagraphics.com, but your replies to our requests for more information were going into a testing mailbox that was hidden.

I apologize to those of you who have been waiting for help. None of your emails were lost, and there is no need to resend them. The problem is fixed now, and we're working through the backlog to respond to everyone who needs a reply.

Thank you very much to Jeff K, who spotted the issue, and alerted us to what was happening. And thank you also to everyone in our community for being patient with us while we get to your follow up questions.

Life Balance 5.0.5 for Mac OS X

Today we released Life Balance 5.0.5 for Mac OS X, which fixes several problems with the iPhone Sync Settings window. We had a couple of reports from customers who were having trouble changing the port number, and traced this to some window activation, keyboard focus and editing commit problems. The new release fixes those problems.

People who are running 5.0.4 should get the update automatically through Sparkle. If you're not running 5.0.4 or have automatic updates turned off, you can get 5.0.5 from the usual download page.

Enjoy!
