Webpost to Flickr fails with error message about checking "directory" setting

I added a flickr account to my webposting settings. However, when I attempt to send a screen shot to flickr, it fails with this error message.

There was a problem when Skitch tried to upload the file to the server.
Please check your "directory" setting

As far as I can tell, I have no "directory" setting. I can webpost to .Mac and Skitch.com just fine. Thanks for any help.

Similarly, it would be nice to toggle ALL past posts at once. Someone playing with the site might think the better of previous posts later and will either have to delete items manually or remove the whole account.

7 months ago this seemed like a great idea. It's been my leading annoyance with the site. How come there's been no change?

Any luck reproducing the issue? Thanks.

saadiq marked one of Daniel Spronk's replies in Soocial as useful. Daniel Spronk replied to the problem "sync problems: overwriting of fields not in soocial repository". saadiq and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

sync problems: overwriting of fields not in soocial repository

I emailed this to support but I think this might be a better forum for sorting out the issue.

Not all data repositories store the same information. For instance, OS X Address Book has a field for birthdays but Soocial doesn't. Not a problem in general. Birthday I like to have but it doesn't need to be in all repositories. However, it seems as if after a recent sync, Soocial has attempted to overwrite all of the birthday fields in my OS X Address Book. Not a good thing.

The sync doesn't recognize the difference between non-existent data and data consisting of an empty field. That's a little concerning so I've turned off Soocial syncing on my laptop until I can get clarification on the issue.

Thanks.

Mac collector locks up machine after full-screen movie viewing

After watching a movie I rented on iTunes in full screen, the Mac RescueTime collector locked up my machine. I was able to reproduce this and as a result, I've uninstalled the collector and am discontinuing use of the app.

1) Play movie in full screen.
2) Exit full screen.
3) Mouse over dock.

That's very odd. Do any other Adobe AIR apps work on your real install of Win XP SP2 or is it just the Pownce client giving trouble?

Maybe a networking issue. I am able to login just fine right now.

Adding new people to a bill on facebook is broken

On facebook if you create a new bill and try to add someone who doesn't currently have the BillMonk facebook app, it fails. The search doesn't return any users. If you click on the "Invite Friends" link from the facebook app it just takes you back to the home page for the app.

The only way I was able to get around this was able to add people was to go to the actuall BillMonk website and click on the "Invite/Add Friends" link ( https://www.billmonk.com/friends/add ) and from there click on "Invite Facebook Friends".

Very annoying but it works.

Seems to have been resolved. Thanks.

I signed out of the website and signed back in successfully. Looks like it's just the client.

I keep getting a "Whoops! Try again, please." message. I'm quite certain I haven't forgotten my login information.
