OK, for the Zinio users out there, I swear, this is the only app where I haven't figured out the notification # on the icon. I can't figure out how to clear it. Right now it says 4 on the icon but there are only two undownloaded magazines on my iPad. This is clicking on "Read" and then my library comes up and I've selected all. Only two magazines I haven't downloaded.

Now on my iPhone its even weirder, because it also says 4 (at least they're consistent) but when I go my library there are 14 magazines with a little download arrow by it.

What gives?
 
You're not alone. Sometimes I can get all cleared with a reboot, but typically not. I've given up trying to figure it out.

BTW, I have no desire to hijack your thread, but since the subject is Zinio, please be aware.... A few minutes ago, I was looking at the latest issue of MacUser, as there appears to be an article re Lion server, as it relates to iOS devices. I saw the price for that issue, using the Zinio app, was $4.99. Then the Zinio app crashed, so I went to the website. Same zine, but $3.70.

Like I said, just a heads up.
 
I figured mine out. It goes by completely untouched overall for your account, not the device, so even though I have 14 unread on my iPhone I only have 4 unread in my overall account. But I said I only have 2 on my iPad. Turns out, the other two were in the 2010 folder in my library. So now I have no notification as I've downloaded all the content.
