Over the weekend, I realized that my Nike+ runs were not syncing with the nikeplus.com website.
Usually I would hit “Send Run to Nike+”, and after I submitted my username and password on the Nike+ mobile site, I would lock my phone and move on to the next part of my workout.

But this past Saturday, I decided to wait until the site loaded…and it never did.
Instead, it sent me in a continuous login loop that never resulted in my seeing any of my previous runs. And this concerned me…greatly.

The Investigation

When I got home, I attempted to investigate by logging in again, but this time using WIFI.
However, my login attempts were still looping me back to the Nike+ Mobile login screen instead of showing me information on my last run, my goals, and my friends’ runs. It became clear that for the past few months, I wasn’t actually logging in when I thought I was.

As most adults with ADHD know, things that don’t make sense or are out of the norm will drive you up a wall until they do make sense, or they do become the norm.
And after I’d finally resigned from hitting “Login” an abundant number of times, I decided to try something different.

In web development, you learn that if a login error isn’t code or user related, it’s usually browser related. And because my password was correct, and I could login on the Nikeplus.com site just fine using Chrome Browser for iPhone, I decided to look over my Safari settings.
And sure enough, my “Privacy” was set to “Never” Accept Cookies.

Yeah, that’s not going to work.

The Quick Fix is Obvious

1. Open your “Settings”.
2. Change your “Privacy” setting to either “From visited” or “Always”.

If that doesn’t work, I don’t know what to tell ya.

Oh wait. I do.
Call Nike+ Support. Ha!
