Xmarks for Safari Locks Up Mac During Sync
I experience a huge delay and an unresponsive mac whenever Xmarks syncs. Basically everything slows to a halt, and I am better off getting a coffee and letting my mac run. Once the sync is complete, my mac is back to normal.

I am very happy with the result of syncing Xmarks Safari on my macbook. I am very frustrated that my macbook locks up and can't do any other tasks while Xmarks is actively syncing. What causes this? Is there a way to remove or minimize this behavior? Is it a known issue that is being addressed for many users?

I'm unable to get iTunes to fetch an update to Tweetie 2. I am on a 3G, running 3.0.1 (I want to stay here as long as I can - I've got tethering). I bought Tweetie, so I should be upgrading to Tweetie 2 for free - correct? Is there something funky going on? How can I obtain the update to Tweetie 2?

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled
iTunes not updating from Tweetie to Tweetie 2..

Entering New Companies and Products
I used to be able to start a page for companies and products not yet on Get Satisfaction. I don't see that option anymore. If it's not in the search results, is there any way to enter a new product?

I uninstalled with your uninstaller. Reinstalled. Error on 1st sync.

I'd really appreciate an official response!

Xmarks for Safari crashes on every sync attempt
Xmarks for Safari crashes on every sync attempt. Just started happening. How can I troubleshoot? Do I need uninstall/reinstall?

I am pasting what I think is a log of an error.

Is an official app still on its way? Will it be free?

Hi Heather, the link you provided to a new version does appear to resolve the issue :)

Note that updating via the extensions/add-ons window does *not* return an update available. So FF was telling there was no update available via the regular means of updating the extension.

This error has returned with a vengeance on my FF. I have reset Ubiquity 4 times -- this is not resolving the issue. When I go to look fo an offending verb, it looks like the majority of the verbs installed are incompatible! What's going on?

I found just one command with a strikethrough. It was "rotate page" from https://ubiquity.mozilla.com/standard.... I unsubscribed, and the error appears to be resolved. Thank you.

If https://ubiquity.mozilla.com/standard... is a native feed for Ubiquity, is it a bug that it has a command that is not supported?

Some verbs were not loaded as they are not compatible with Parser 2.
Ever since I upgraded to Ubiquity 0.5, I get a growl alert every time I open a Firefox window that says
Some verbs were not loaded as they are not compatible with Parser 2.
How can I fix this so I am not alerted, and ideally so that the error is nit occurring? I thought I could identify some offending subscription, but I have not been able to do that.

I'm on a macbook: OS 10.5.7, Firefox 3.5
