I noticed that many had trouble with Bonjour syncing but I didn't see if anyone else had this problem. My "primary" computer is a MacBook Pro that I take back and forth between work and home. I also have an iPhone 3G.
When I'm at home and connected to my home wireless network, the laptop and phone sync together over Bonjour just fine. But when I'm at work and connected to their wireless network, I get the "unable to find sync server" error message.
I tried playing with the MBP's firewall settings as described in the sticky posts for this forum, but it didn't change things. The only variable is the network, so there must be something about my work's network that's blocking the connection. Or could it be that the IP address changes when I switch networks?
Any clues on diagnosing and fixing this kind of issue?
