Hi Brian, I have just tested this theory by switching wireless networks on my Mac (there are 2 wireless networks at my house), restarting OF on the mac and trying to sync. The sync failed, error message on iPhone was "Unable to syunc database with server". I tried syncing 8 or 10 times with no joy. (I was attempting to sync by pushing the sync symbol on OF for iPhone rather than sending settings from the Mac or resetting the database).
When I switched back to the original wireless network (without quitting OF on Mac) the sync worked first time. I know software often has foibles/glitches, and while I don't claim to be an IT expert, I am very used to syncing phones, macs, networking etc and syncing between the iPhone and OF seems to be very unreliable. To date I have recorded more failed than successful sync attempts and I've been trying like hell to figure out what's going wrong. Thanks for all your help though. Patrick
