Jeff -- No, you shouldn't have to set the browser to "offline mode". I asked because if this error you are seeing is happening while you have an internet connection, then something is definitely wrong. Syncing your account should not block you from using the apps while online.
It would help if you could try some other Gears demos/applications and let me know if they work. I'd like to narrow the problem down to either your installation of Gears, or some sort of a glitch with GAFYD/Reader -- that way we can investigate it further. Here are some demos to try: http://code.google.com/apis/gears/sample.html Thanks, Ben On Mon, Sep 22, 2008 at 8:28 AM, Jeff Clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey Ben- > > Exactly right.
