 * I have two blogs, one running wordpress 2.5.1 and one with wordpress 2.6. I was
   able to access Blog 1 (2.5.1) but not Blog 2 (2.6). For Blog 2, I keep getting
   a communications error.
 * Communication Error
    Operation could not be completed NSXMLParserErrorDomain 
   error 9
 * I do have the mobile applications part checked on the Settings -> Write page.
   Because it works on the 2.5.1 blog and not the 2.6, I can’t help but think it
   has to do with the 2.6 blog setup. Last night, I redownloaded the wordpress install
   files and deleted the originals and uploaded the new files.
 * Still no success.

 * I have the same problem but I’m running 2.5.1. When trying to set up the app 
   I get this error:
 * Communications Error
    Operation could not be completed (NSXMLParserErrorDomain
   error 64)

 * Similar error here (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 5) on a new WordPress install(
   Version 2.6) with the iphone app. No multi-byte characters in the names, no add
   plugins. Still looking for solution. I’m sure one is out there =)

 * I’m getting the “error 5” variant on blog.joshlewis.org, which is running 2.6.
   I wish I knew how to fix or work around this!

 * Okay, I figured it out!! (my issue at least)
    Taking a cue from buraglio’s “no
   add plugins” I turned off all my plugins and I was able to add my blog settings
   into the app and was able to post. For me the offending plugin was the AMM – 
   Amazon Media Management Extension (ver1.5).
 * So you might want to try and disable some plugins and see if that is the offending
   issue.

 * I’m struggling with this… I only have one blog that I’m working on: [http://winesandmakers.com/blog/](http://winesandmakers.com/blog/)
   and it absolutely WILL NOT load into the WP iphone app. The blog is in WP 2.5.1.
   No plugins are activated, but it is a skinned template for the new Wines and 
   Makers website. Not sure if that matters. I’m not very technically savvy with
   this stuff.
 * The error message I receive when I try to ADD BLOG to the iphone app is:
 * Communication Error
    Can’t find host
 * I actually do blogs for work, so having this functionality will really free me
   up when I’m on the road!
 * Help…

 * It happens to me too in my [blog](http://www.productesdeneteja.com/blog/).
 * NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 5
 * I tried to disable plugins. Didn’t work out.

 * guys this seems to work:

 * Turns out a guy in Spain has a fix which is a matter of adding a few lines to
   the ‘.htaccess’ file in your WP install.
 * > <Files xmlrpc.php>
   >  SecFilterInheritance Off </Files>

 * When I do this, the whole site goes down. I had no .htaccess I made one, with
   this entry and nothing works.
 * Any suggestions?

 * I get the same, whole site goes down. The phone does pick up straight away that
   there is a problem with the XML-RPC service, but I’m guessing that it is fairly
   important to keep the site running as well!

 * My blog “hung” on the iPhone App until I updated to 2.7.1… Hope that helps…

 * [This site](http://bocabit.com/tutorial/error-xmlrpc-de-wordpress-for-iphone.php)
   has the fix that worked for me.
 * Basically it’s adding this line to your .htaccess file:
    <Files xmlrpc.php> SecFilterInheritance
   Off </Files>
 * A word of warning though, be careful when editing your .htaccess file, you could
   screw everything else up.

 * mod_security bites people once again!
 * There’s nothing inherently wrong with mod_security. However, too many webhosts
   set it up and then don’t maintain it or even use sane security rulesets for it.
   So mod_security tends to break a lot of things.
 * This is why I recommend disabling it if you find out that your web host is using
   it. It’s amazing how often that fixes things.
 * However, on the other hand, mod_security does actually do what it claims to do
   and can stop a lot of attacks dead in their tracks. So the better solution is
   to find a web host that actually maintains it properly and knows what they are
   doing. Of course, that’s easier said than done. 😉
