I just installed Lifeograph, out of curiosity mostly.  It installed and 
runs, but does not have a modifiable window, is that what you mean by 
"not working"?

I maximized the window and there was then enough territory to actually 
see and read the stock "diaries".  Perhaps this is enough to help you? 
I have not yet tried to create my own diary, so there may be other 
issues I haven't hit yet.

If not, a clearer description of "if it worked at all" would be helpful.
