Once again I am trying to add a recipe manually. It won't save, nor will it save and log. In fact, if I try to save and log it, the pop-up box where you determine which meal, number of servings etc., already has the error message, as soon as it appears, asking me to try again later! I really don't want to lose what I've already input...it takes time to correct the matches that MFP come up with!!

    I JUST added one about 15 minutes ago...manually, I'm using an iPhone 5s. It saved it and logged it. I'm sorry you're having trouble!

    Well done, @joans1976 :# I'm on an Apple Macbook but I've found a work-around....I spotted the 'old recipe calculator' and that worked, saved and logged! Whew!

    Good, glad it worked out! So frustrating! I would've freaked out, it's my meal prep day!

    Well - I just tried to use it, and no go. It allowed me to create and edit it and I could see the calorie information finished at 369 per serving, but when I hit "save" - nothing happened at all. When I hit "save and log" - it came up with an entry of 55 calories on the pre-screen, then an error message. When I checked my food diary, nothing there... checked the recipes, not there. So, I just did a quick add for 369 calories (too lazy to enter the ingredients one at a time manually due to the incredible slowness of the desktop site, did not want to be here til midnight)
