Thanks, Dean. Actually, I can't even sync mobileorg. When I try (Pressing the sync button in the upper right corner), I get: *Error downloading checksums* An error was encountered while downloading checksums.dat from the server. The file isn't required, but the error received was unusual. The error was: Unexpected error I don't know what that's about, but I can't get past it.
