  • Anyone else having problems accessing the site from an iPad?

    iPhone or pc, no problem. Keep getting a server error from my iPad. I've tried different browsers and no luck. Cleared cookies and still no luck. Any ideas?

    Send me your iPad and I'll let you know what I find.

    I was just on here last night with the iPad. No problems using Mobile Safari.

      I had no problems yesterday either. And I'm using mobile Safari on my phone to post. Just can't get it to work today on the iPad.

        OK. You made me get off my butt and find my iPad. It works for me (this was posted using the iPad using safari).

        You must have a defective iPad. Send it to me and I'll take a look at it for ya.

          Now it isn't loading on my pc either. Must be something with the router.

              Maybe you should get your own internet connection instead of using your neighbor's.

                Centurylink has been having intermitant DNS issues today. Switch to Google DNS and you will be fine.

                    So not really a problem with "access" as much as usage.

                    using iPad mini to view the site via browser. When I am reading a thread and respond to a post, the text box pops up as well as my keyboard. As soon as i type the first letter, the keyboard disappears. I have to click back into the text box to get it to reappear. There are two ways I have found to eliminate the problem:

                    choose "reply with quote" and the keyboard won't minimize, OR
                    choose "reply" and once the keyboard appears, I minimize it myself with the keyboard key (bottom right corner), the click back into the text box. Once I do that, I can type normally without the keyboard minimizing,

                    has this happened to anyone else?
                    Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

                      I encounter this once or twice a week. Happens on mini, but it happened on my old iPad too. I think it is a Safari bug.

                      There is another simple fix. Click on the back and then the forward buttons on your browser. Takes you right back to where you were editing (with your text still there) but it stops the problem.

                        That has been driving me crazy. Happens on the air also. Very annoying. Thanks for the fix.
