Frustrated trying to set up my fitbit. Several hours can't get it done with a tablet. Emailed to co they said 2 days for a reply. Finally found a phone number will try that tomorrow. Dang thing comes with no instructions and the web site is nearly useless. Finally figured out how to charge it, no further. Might try on my phone if the app ever finishes loading. Old fashioned, I like instruction manuals or one that I can at least print!

Didn't get to the gym, with the cold blast hitting us this week I needed to finish up a few things outside before temps hit the teens, was almost dark when I came in.

It's easiest if you set it up on your computer. I'm actually not sure if you can set it up only on a phone or tablet.

You have to plug what they call I think the "dongle" into a usb drive. There should have been a small booklet (only a few pages) that provide you with a website to go to. Once you follow those steps it should be a piece of cake!

Great job on the walking. You'll have that fit bit working in no time, thanks to all these great Fat Secret buddies.

Plugged that in finally. The website is telling my to tap on 3 dots that do not exist. And to change my settings go to a little gear cog icon that doesn't exist either. I finally liked it to my I phone but that's such a pain to enter things in and info small. I really want to link it to the tablet too. Right now I have nothing else.

Booklet was useless. Had some care instructions nothing else but the frustrating web site.

Hmm, I have the Fitbit One, I'm think you might have a different one because I never got those instructions. Sorry I couldn't help more.

It finally synced to my tablet after I set it upon the iPhone. Odd as one îs os and this is windows. Is there a way to change anything like the 2000 calories?

There is but I think you have to do it on the computer. I just looked at the different settings on my iPad but didn't see anywhere you can change your calorie goals. If there is a way, I have no idea how. Sorry

Found a manual on my phone. Will have to see if I can print it @ work. We are supposed to be able to access it from work. Can't find much using the tablet app.

I hate not having my laptop working. The tablet is so limited. Tax return time will get a new one.
