Right, well that explains why it has never worked. Now it is working. To be honest, you login to Spaces via Windows Live, the LIfeCast help pop-up and the grey'ed text indicates it's your login name, i.e your Windows Live username password, not hte secret word and the spaces placeholder name.

This could be better explained for the user, kind of a mixture of wording in LifeCast and Microsoft's choice for authentication.

Nope, still the same. Details are not correct message.

Yet they are correct....curious...tried login and e-mail+secret

A comment on the question "1.2 doesn't authenticate on Windows Live Spaces" in Sleepydog:

Hmm, well I've setup e-mail posting and the secret word, but the lifecast help instructions indicate it is the Windows Live login you need to use, though I have tried both with no success. I have recently moved to an iPhone from an iPod Touch so the application has been reinstalled as a result. Very odd...let me try the uninstall/reinstall one more time and I'll post back. – jarmstrong, on February 02, 2009 15:35

Did the windows live spaces login issue get identified/resolved? I am still unable to authenticate, despite everything being correct and I am starting to look elsewhere to enable me to use the Live Spaces, which is a shame, as LifeCast is working fine for another blog I am using with it, be nice to have it all in one app.

Hey no worries, the crimbo spirit must be paid. I am in no way inconvinienced or bothered, just figured it was worth mentioning.

Have a good christmas to you and your developers ;-)

1.2 doesn't authenticate on Windows Live Spaces

New version announces live spaces functionality but when I try to authenticate it fails. Details are correct, but no joy.
