Posted a new Quick Clips video tutorial last night. This one deals with how to sync your configuration data file between the buzztouch.com server, or your own self-hosted server, and your local BT_Config.txt file. For those who want to get right to it, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp2vL1XCPC0 This topic comes up often in the forums. There are at least two good reasons why you might want to sync this information: * You are about to submit your app to iTunes, and you want to make sure your local configuration file is the same as what's on the server. That ensures the reviewer won't get a prompt for an app update. * You've made a whole bunch of changes to your app and things aren't appearing as you expect them in the simulator. Sync the config file, clean your project, and test again. Hope this video helps! Let me know if you have any constructive comments! Mark Title Comments Hello!

I had an app reject one time for this so I learned the hard way how important this is. Comments Thanks, Mark! Good info.

That's the best one, though. A good user experience for a reviewer is a must! Mark Comments Lots of good reasons why people might need to sync this data! That's the best one, though.
