Hi @fredgsanford712 ,

I have a Store and use the Business listing tool which ANY Seller can use.  If you are using the phone app it has had off and on issues from day 1.  If you have access to a computer or lap top this might help, this has been shared with a number of Sellers having issues with their current tool:

"We recommend that Sellers change to the Business tool when a strange occurrence happens.  It is comprehensive and used by eBay Store owners and many of us here are familiar with it.  Below is a link to switch, ignore the warnings not to switch.  Once you switch you will have to create new listings opposed to being able to revise existing ones with the Business tool. "

They just put their finger in and fixed and the label print screen issue so this is likely where the leak has transferred to.

I am have the same problem.  I can connect to multiple listing but not single listing.  When going from my dashboard I cannot connect at all

Sign out and sign back in on top left hand corner. It worked for me.

Not only could I not connect when I went to upload the listing that took me forever, but even though I saved it as a Template so it wouldn't get lost...guess what...it vanished. All of it was gone. That is bad enough under normal circumstances, but it was a nightmare to get the copy that I put into the listing to stay in the format, the font, the color, the spacing, all of it becomes a jumbled mess. Am I the only one experiencing this. I had no issues with Turbo Lister...well minor things I could always figure out or work around. But this is a nightmare! Today, it is taking my paragraphs, and in every sentence it combines any two words as one (asone - ⬅️like that!) Then while it was doing that, today it turned a section of my paragraph description red from black. And it almost always turns the "terms & conditions" completely black where that actually had headings in red. It will not let me single space. It will not let me have a list as I have always had one. It is literally taking me 10 times as long to list anything as it once did and I am only settling for the awful presentation.

Is it that ebay wants the mobile & computer apps to function the same. They used to encourage a well presented "advertisement" of our items. Now their software is screwing it up. Even having to go back in and correct all the words it threw together is an enormous time waster. I do not trust the Create Listing Link as I cannot now afford the time to put into a listing only to have it fail, Does anyone know if it is working?

How is it possible that a company of this magnitude have software developers that offer no tool to list that is not possessed?
