@cutedaffodil - I worked through the issue - but it's been a few weeks and I don't remember the details. I remember it had to do with confusion in the install instruction ... I will post any update if I can recreate the issue. |

My workaround is to download by album and then just move the albums into my my backup directory, which is quick on osx

I got a different SSL error on Windows with Firefox: "SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG". Chrome had a different message from both Firefox and the opening post above, but also failed. However the solution was the same as noted on Apr 4 above: manually change the httpS://localhost... url to plain http://localhost.... Flicker downloadr beta 3.3.1.1 |
I'm getting this message from flickr when I try to login/authorize:
"An external application has requested your login credentials and permission to perform certain actions on your behalf, but has failed to include all the required data.
You don't really need to know what this means, except that you can't use the application until this problem is fixed. (It's a third-party problem, not a Flickr problem.)"
(I don't see this error already posted..) Is there maybe a recent Oauth change? Any ideas for a workaround?
