Well it seems the folks over at TidBITS are having some trouble with their FTP server and as a result, XBit is downloading empty files from them. XBit then chooses not to display the issues in the interface when it sees them as having no content. The problem is that there is no feedback telling you what happened. This is currently a problem for issues #750 and #751.

There is an easy workaround for this. As mentioned in the Read Me, just manually copy the issues into the the following folder within your home folder…

“~/Library/Application Support/XBit/TidBITS”

The issues can be saved out of your email program or grabbed from the links above. Option click those links to have them download to your computer.
