BETA flock Photo Uploader failure to proceed?

just one photo but have tried different types jpg gif png at a time. Running Vista on PC.

ok, thanks.

I will let you know what I find out as soon as I can...

In the meantime, if you are feeling adventurous you can install a newer beta which has a slight chance of fixing your issue. If you grab this build, please let me know if your uploader experience is any different...

Clayton: I spent the weekend really exploring google tools and google mozilla add-ons then am using thes very successfully in my BETA Flock. before I install jack daw's version answer me :

How do I first backup and save the browser information including my current bookmarks, favorites, add-ons, et al

I would test drive another beta and must say even without the uploaded this new version is cruising like a sports car on the autobahn. SO I want to be able to return to this configuiration if disliking other versions.

Will my install of jack daw's BETA automatically import all those features I like and have now: or will I need to install againg?

Hi Wesley,

Everything is in your Flock profile folder. As of this new generation of Flock (2.0), the browser has 'profile migration' capability, meaning you can go back and forth between newer and older versions and use the same profile without doing anything special. But to be safe, make a copy of your Flock profile to a separate name and location first, just in case.

The profile folder should be here (unless there is something different in 64-bit Vista, which I am unable to check atm):

C:\Users\[your login profile name]\AppData\Roaming\Flock\Browser\Profile

Everything should just stay the same when you install jackdaw over ibis. If you have any issues let me know.

BTW - this update is a good idea as a bunch of fixes are in it compared to the beta1, including a known crasher on Vista. That said, the folks I have spoken to don't expect that the uploader will perform any differently for you. 64-bit windows is not fully or officially supported by mozilla or flock yet, so there are bound to be some problems that you have that the rest of the world doesn't see. I still would love to know if the uploader starts working for you on jackdaw. Stranger things have happened.

Here's some info on where mozilla is at on the subject of supporting 64-bit Windows: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtop... . Flock can't ever really be 64-bit compliant until Firefox is.

I hope this is helpful. Please let me know how it goes. I am glad to hear you are digging the browser and the google tools. "...cruising like a sports car on the autobahn..." is so great to hear. I find this new version crazy fast on my machine as well.

Hey FLock guys

ATTN TO FLOCK BETA Jack DAWS [I think is the name]. I installed this version of flock.

jackdaw-testing/2008062909/flock/flock_flock-2.0b2pre.en-US.win32

First flaw is having again to delete and throw out off my computer xpculen.**

Now got the photo uploader to work in this version.

Was online about 20 minutes and got this error message.

and make sure DAWS sees this. IT may be very important or minor but I will let you know if this continues to know throw me off the 'autobahn'

PS: flickr lets your make these flash-based [i think it's flash] annotated notes now that hover invisibly on top of photos until you mouse over and see a yellow post-it note. THESE objects worked better in the FLOCK website beta for download and are really hassling the mouse and cursor with this version.
