cloudmarks won't connect to pinboard

[j k]

hello!

i've just installed cloudmarks but it won't connect to pinboard when i put the username and password in.

i know the password is right and i even reset it to make sure.

safari connects normally to pinboard.

i've uninstalled cloudmarks and reinstalled it.

any ideas?

thank you!

Hmm, that's odd. I just uninstalled Cloudmarks and reinstalled it from scratch. I even deleted my Pinboard password from the keychain. It worked for me without a hitch; I was able to log in to Pinboard and get my bookmarks right away.

I really don't know why it's not working for you, unless perhaps you have a content blocker or http proxy that is preventing connections to api.pinboard.in (the address of the Pinboard API server that Cloudmarks connects to).

Here is something to try. Copy the URL below and paste it into Safari's address bar, or just click the link if Safari is your default browser.

https://api.pinboard.in/v1/posts/all

See what you get. If you are able to access the API server, you should see an XML document in Safari, full of your Pinboard bookmarks.

If you get some kind of error message instead, let me know what it says.

How interesting!

When i went to https://api.pinboard.in/v1/posts/all as you suggested Safari asked for my password and username in the same way as before and when i put it in it, connected without a problem and hey presto! Cloudmarks is now able to connect too.

Bizarre but it works.

Thank you....
