Troubleshooting issues

bodybugg® web application: My printed reports are cut off on 8.5" x 11" paper.; I click on "Update my calories burned" button and am prompted to install new software upgrades but can't get past this screen.; When I try to upload data from my armband, I get an error message.; The web application does not prompt me to manually report my calories burned even though I had my armband off for more than 30 minutes.; I click on a button like "Update my calories burned" or a link like "Print program" and nothing happens

bodybugg® armband: My armband is not responding. It seems to be off and I cannot get it to come back on.; My armband is not automatically turning on when I slide it on.; My armband is beeping and vibrating while it is on my arm.; My armband data seems to have been erased.
