Same problem, {"The operation has timed out"} exception thrown during the logon.

The API stoped working yesterday. "The operation has timed out." is thrown during the logon. They released an upgrade to SkyDrive.com yesterday (29Nov. 2011). Any idea on how to fix the API?

Ditto, can't do anything. In fact, the background URI used by this project (http://docs.live.net/SkyDocsService.svc) is no longer responding. There is a cached version available from Bing but it is the generic report when a service doesn't support MEX. Hope we get this fixed soon, my Windows Phone app just died because of it. :(

see attached. sounds like the API that's been used has been deprecated for quite some time, and perhaps yesterday they just finally axed it. the Live SDK is what they're pushing now, and I don't think it has all the same functionality :(

Based on what I can read(1), the new service requires OAuth2.0 authentication.
But even if that is fixed, the official API seems to only support "Photo and Video"(2) objects, which is of no use for me.

hm. I have switched my codebase over to using the Live Connect SDK which it appears is going to be the "official" skydrive API. So far I'm able to do everything I need to do: list files, download files, upload files.

@bc3tech, I had the same concern as kkenneth about the live sdk api, which is said to only support limited types of file. Can you confirm it?

bc3tech wrote Dec 2, 2011 at 3:04 PM

Not quite sure what you're asking me to confirm. I can tell you I can list files, videos, and photos as well as upload and download to/from a specific folder w/in my Skydrive. All through the new Live Connect SDK.

The documentation (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh243648.aspx) alludes to being able to list files, not just photos & videos, so I have to assume it's possible. In my usage, however, I am particularly focused on Videos at this time. When I finish up this implementation I'm more than willing to attempt non-photo/video work to see what, if anything, can be done.
