Was car running (ie engine on)? You definitely want to avoid connection interruptions during coding as they can result in corrupted ECU's (E-sys can fix, but not sure app has similar process to recover).

Some warning are false positives. They can clear on their own by power cycling, shutting down vehicle for 20-30 minutes, or with driving. Others do require clearing. That is great that their support is so responsive.
