Re: Downloading Dewey Decimal numbers

Hi, When I scan a new non-fiction book, the Dewey number never seems to load. Then I go to "Get Advanced Info" and choose the LOC site. I see that it's updating the entry, but most of the time it does not come back with a Dewey number. I really need the Dewey numbers for my project and do...

Re: Different sorting options in PocketPedia

Thank you for the feedback as well as the detailed description of how you would use this feature and why it would be helpful. We will try to get as many sort options as possible into the device. Something that we have been experimenting with is keeping the sort order that is set in the the Pedias b...

Different sorting options in PocketPedia

For my purposes, I would love to be able to sort my books in PocketPedia by Dewey Decimal number. My "dream" is to use PocketPedia at my bookshelves and make sure everything is ordered correctly. Looking at how the alpha sort is now, one thing that immediately presents a problem is the sid...

Re: pocketpedia sync to Dvdpedia.

With the ad-hoc network connecting my iPod Touch and iMac, the firewall logged the following denied request: 10.0.0.2 (iPod): port 49438 10.0.0.1 (iMac): port 59406 I opened port 59406 on my iMac and all is well. Given what Conor said, that the ports are chosen dynamically, I don't know that this w...

Re: Unable to Sync

Try this thread: http://www.bruji.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2454 This appears to be a common problem. I created a thread about my issues with BookP and PocketP, but then noticed that the same issue was covered in the aforementioned thread, so started posting there. I was able to get mine con...

Re: pocketpedia sync to Dvdpedia.

I stopped all firewall services on my iMac, connected the ad-hoc network, and things are working. I'm currently syncing the books and it is requesting images of my book covers from BookPedia. So it is definitely a firewall issue. Now I just need to know what ports to open up on my iMac so I don't ha...

Re: pocketpedia sync to Dvdpedia.

It seems to be a firewall issue for some, that is blocking the connection. A user reported fixing it by changing his firewall to allow server connections on the LAN. This was not on his Mac but his actual wireless router. I'll post more details as I get them. Thanks! Until I know exactly what to op...

Re: No "sync" button in PocketPedia

Update again: confirmed connectivity between iPod & iMac through ad-hoc AirPort network. Sync button appeared, pressed it, got the "Synchronizing" window for a while, and then nothing. Subsequent "Sync" requests made that window appear for less than a second and then go away.

Re: No "sync" button in PocketPedia

Update: connected my iMac to my household wireless (just to see if I could get a connection) - a Sync button popped up, but it didn't sync anything. Blank screen. The "requesting collections" window just comes & goes very quickly. I would like to be able to create a computer-to-compute...

No "sync" button in PocketPedia

I have installed PocketPedia on my iPod Touch. I waited all day for the software update just so I could use PocketPedia. Can't see any sync button, though. My first attempt was through my Purple (wireless) network on Smoothwall. I was going to set up a pinhole to allow the wireless (Purple) to talk ...

Re: BookPedia: Dewey Decimal not sorting correctly

I just updated to 4.3 (didn't check the thread for replies before BookPedia gave me an update notice) and it appears that the bug has been fixed! :D
