Why can't I use Blogger
When I test my connection for my Blogger account, LifeCast rejects them saying "'Configuration Error' The blog settings could not be confirmed. Please double check the username and password and try again" , I make sure they are correct and it keeps rejecting them. This does not happen when I use the same settings for my Tumblr account, I test and it immediately excepts the settings. I do not use Tumblr, I just set up an account with the same username and password to see if I could use LifeCast. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to be able to use this app for Blogger.

Inappropriate?That's a hard one to answer. Can you remember when it was that you set up your Blogger account ? Is it very old ?
I am wondering if older blogger accounts are being handled slightly differently by Google, and therefore the authentication is giving spurious results that we are interpreting as a failure.
I'm sorry to hear that you're having problems with LifeCast and Blogger. We're working all the time on improving the integration with all the blogs we support - we have some major changes afoot for the next version that should help us pin down these kind of problems.

Inappropriate?The blogger account is two months old. I opened a new blogger account and tried a different email and password and that doesn't work either. I tried both a gmail email and a personal domain email and neither work on either blog.

Inappropriate?OK, so that's pretty strange. We definitely have it working with Blogger for most people. The only thing I can suggest is if you want to email me the account details for the second account you set up, I can investigate exactly what the problem is.

Inappropriate?I am not sure when, but blogger has changed from using the blogger id to using the google account. Could this be the impact everyone is feeling?
