Did it ask you to update your libraries?
You need to use the latest one, which is 1.0.3.
You can check it at Tools->Reef Angel Libraries.

It's a daily check.
Which OS are you running?
Did you just install?

Mac 10.7.5, yes just installed and cancelled on the update because it looked like it hung up at 30%, thought I would be able to do a manual update.

To force update, you need to modify the Arduino preferences fine.
http://arduino.cc/en/Hacking/Preferences
use this:

Code: Select all

update.last=1266427969865
This will trick Arduino into thinking that it's been more than a day that you checked for updates.
Or, you can just wait 24hrs.
