My quote from January. I can get screenshots if you want but I think this does well enough.

Anything I can use to nudge these guys is appreciated. Screen shot before, screen shot of locking.

When in OBD Link, you go to Reports and hit Share. The Mobile Manager choice is available.

Click on Mobile Manager. You get a window saying Loading. It will stay there with the 2 buttons dimmed forever.

You can, however, hit Save (even though it is dimmed) and a message says that the link was added, but it doesn't add a link.

Ric,
Can you try sending the link via the email choice on the tablet instead of putting it on our invoice?
If you can, we need the link to understand what's going on.

Thanks

I tried with 2 different email programs and they both worked fine. I sent one to you also.
