Hi Mark,

Cliff ( the poster in the Apple forums ) and I have been trying to get  
this to work. Let me know if your test works out, it didnt for me  
unfortunately.
Are people not bothering with creating profiles for the iphone/touch  
or is everyone  frantic with the semester starting and not have time  
for this? :)

Because you know you need one for "testing" right ..

Regards
Peter
