My Troubleshooting
- "Waiting" or "Linking" status at the bottom of the mobile app, while the armband is paired properly in the Bluetooth menu of cell phone : yesterday I was referring to the BodyMedia Fit mobile app as I'll probably do many times a day with my new gadget and I noticed that it would not say "Linked" the way it should when it is communicating data. Without my user manuals handy, I reached over and pressed the grey button from outside my sleeve. I heard it make a noise, but the status didn't change. I went back into the Bluetooth menu of the phone, unpaired the device and then paired it again (requiring that I press the grey button to put it into the mode where it will pair with my phone). Once I did that, everything was fine and all the data was there and communicating properly.
- Installed the BodyMedia Fit Sync application on my laptop and wouldn't sync (accessed the file I had downloaded the other day over my home network and ran the installation on my laptop since I couldn't find it by logging on the BMF website)--tried to sync the armband on my laptop and nothing happened : in this case, I am going to try again tomorrow and see if the same thing happens. I took the armband back over to my home computer and sync'd there without a problem.
- Logged my food for the day in MyFitnessPal and it wasn't updating immediately in BMF's Activity Manager: in this case, I just needed to be patient. When I clicked the arrow next to the Calories Consumed item in the Summary screen, at some point it populated with the calories that I had logged with MyFitnessPal, however it was not yet updating the total calories shown on the Summary. When I clicked the arrow to collapse that menu, the calories updated. Patience.
