MacGourmet for iPad? Yes!
I've had a lot of requests for information on an iPad version of MacGourmet, so I thought I'd do a quick post on it.
Will there be an iPad version of MacGourmet? Yes, I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that there is. The fact that an iPhone version of MacGourmet already exists helps a lot, but my plan isn't to just make a warmed over version of the iPhone version. No, my goal is to make a version of MacGourmet specifically for the iPad, the same way that Apple is making iPad versions of the iWork apps available for it. The iPad provides a lot more functionality than the iPhone, and I want to take advantage of that.
To do all this though, I really want to get one into my hot little hands first, so that I can design everything for it just right. There is also the matter of building a better way to get information to and from the mobile versions (web-based instead of the current Bonjour-based system) so that you can edit your data anywhere, which is something I've already been working on for both the iPad and iPhone.
So, long story short, yes indeed, I'm planning an iPad version of MacGourmet. Stay tuned to this space for updates.

Future update news! For the near future, updates to the Mac and iPhone versions of MacGourmet are going to be infrequent and done only on an as-needed basis, because I'm hard at work on MacGourmet 3 and planning for MacGourmet touch 2. Keep your eyes peeled to this space or future updates as work on both progresses.
MacGourmet touch Version 1.1 submitted to App Store
I've submitted 1.1 to Apple for approval. Typical turnaround, if there are no issues, is around 2 weeks right now. The new release includes the following:
- - A fix for a timeout issue some people have that prevents them from transferring data from their Mac to their iPhone/iPod touch because the transfer won't start.
- - A new way of transferring data to your iPhone/iPod using files exported from MacGourmet. This allows people still using 10.4 to transfer their data, and it provides an alternative method of transfer to the networking based one.
You should get notified of the update when it's available.
UPDATE: Version 1.1 is now available. When you update your app, make sure that the version in Settings is listed as 1.1.0. I've had reports of iTunes updates failing, and leaving people with "corrupted" versions that don't work correctly. When this happens, the solution is to first delete the app from your iPhone/iPod. Then connect your iPhone to iTunes and let the sync finish. After it does, you can then check MacGourmet in your list of apps, and reinstall it by pressing the button to update your iPhone. Once you do that, you should be able to transfer your data from the desktop version of MacGourmet to your iPhone using the network or new file transfer methods.
Optional Web Site Importers Updated

web site importer page.
