CloudyTabs (v1.4) won't "update" the list, nor show the tabs from other devices or the menu

Hi!

Been using CloudyTabs for a while, but recently I've noticed that I don't get the "menu" at the bottom, and the tab list doesn't seem to be updated.

This is my current "Cloudy Tabs" menu:
cloudytabs - tab list shown not complete - 2014-11-13_12-37-33

But as you can see in the "Cloud" tabs in Safari, I have more tabs open on my iPhone, and on my iPad:

cloudytabs - tab list in safari shows many more tabs - 2014-11-13_12-38-45

I haven't found any way to "reset" the user preferences; I've tried deleting the CloudyTabs dir within $HOME/Library/Application Support/, the file com.joshparnham.CloudyTabs.plist witihin $HOME/Library/Preferences and the $HOME/Library/Caches/com.joshparnham.CloudyTabs to see if that way I got it to "reset" itself but no luck!

Looking at $HOME, the only references I see to CloudyTabs are some crash reports:

./Downloads/CloudyTabs - Open iCloud Browser Tabs in other browsers - v1.3- CloudyTabs.zip
./Downloads/CloudyTabs - Open iCloud Browser Tabs in other browsers - v1.4- CloudyTabs.zip
./Library/Application Support/CrashReporter/CloudyTabs_B79AF85A-BA3F-5818-B7AF-B94A22A2F469.plist
./Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/.CloudyTabs_2014-11-02-160712_Mac-JJJ.crash.plist
./Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/.CloudyTabs_2014-11-05-145621_Mac-JJJ.crash.plist
./Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/CloudyTabs_2014-11-02-160712_Mac-JJJ.crash
./Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/CloudyTabs_2014-11-05-145621_Mac-JJJ.crash

But it's quite a pain that CloudyTabs won't work; I'm used to having whatever I've been "reading" in my commute available when I get to my Mac.

OSX 8.1; Mavericks

I had the same problem, and here's what I did to fix it:

  1. Close all my tabs on all platforms.
  2. Make sure all documents that use iCloud are saved to iCloud.
  3. On my Mac, open the Settings app and uncheck Safari then re-check it. You will need to be sure that you're OK with merging info like bookmarks and your reading list.
  4. Sign out of iCloud. This will require you to delete from your Mac any documents that will still be available in iCloud. This will not delete the documents from iCloud. This step might require your Mac's system password, and might take a few seconds to do.
  5. Sign back into iCloud (if you get an error at this point you might have to exit the Preferences app and reload it; don't you just love computers?), and make sure the Safari checkbox is checked.
  6. I signed out of iCloud on my iPhone and signed back in for good measure.

So that leads me to believe there's something in the way that CloudyTabs handles certain URLs. I don't know what the pattern might be (having closed the tabs that were causing the problem long ago).

Thanks for reporting this guys – I've just published version 1.5 which should fix this (I believe it was due to the app's improper handling of multi-byte URLs). Could you please update to that and let me know if the issue persists.

commented

I haven't had any problems like this since upgrading to 1.5. Go ahead and close this.

I should've closed this a while ago - it's working for me for quite a hit of time now.

So yes please close the issue (I haven't seen a way to close it myself!)
