Known Bugs

  • Our synchronizer may not behave correctly if you have a firewall such as McAfee installed.
  • We don't work well if other sync applications (such as Windows Live Sync Center) are running.
  • You must have administrative permissions to install.
  • IE8/Windows XP (non-English) has not been thoroughly tested

Other Limitations

  • We don't support advanced IE features yet. For example, IE7 has a dedicated RSS sidebar. RSS feeds in that sidebar are not synchronized by our Favorites synchronizer.
  • We do not currently support many of the more advanced features available in our Firefox client, such as synchronizing with your own server.
