Is anyone else still having this issue? Last time it was fixed within a few hours. Also when it finally does sync, will it catch up everything?

    Disconnect from Fitbit in MFP and then reconnect again.

    A check of MFP Help/FAQ indicates it is a known intermittent issue since Sunday 29 April.

    Yes, I have this problem too. Yesterday I added my walking calories as exercise within MFP and that seems to have forced a sync after a short while, after which I deleted the manually added exercise and it adjusted. I will try this again today and see if it helps or if that was a fluke.

    Thanks for the update. This is getting annoying. I love both programs and having them sync works great for me..

    Yesterday, it synced about every 6 hours (I have it set to continuous, which normally is about once every hour). The final sync was 11:59 local time both Sunday and Monday. I did not have to do anything but wait.

    Oh so it was a coincidence. Well, I still want my calories so I will keep the manual exercise added until it syncs.
