Problems with AFF on PC

[juddles]

.... four out of five crew are under initial suspicion for alcohol abuse....

RooFlyer, that was gold! Thank you for that - needed a laugh!

Mind you, I am suspicious of the fifth member that was "clean" - clearly not a team player.

Since the unfix things are getting even better.I can once again post videos.
So this is one I wanted to post 3 weeks ago on the 35th anniversary of the Moscow Olympics.Channel 7s theme.Couldn't stop singing it for at least 12 months afterwards.

Everything works fine for me on Chrome.

Can't insert any pictures on the full site (cannot select either the basic uploader or the default picture attachment screen) all browsing selection options greyed out. Noticed this on my bog standard Windows PC Win 8.1 Internet Explorer 11.0.

Anyone else not able to attach pictures on AFF full web site on PC?

No problems here but I did have to change my way of posting pictures not so long ago.

I have a new problem though-At times I cant like a post-a message comes up saying an error has occurred.Happens mainly on JohnM's TRs.And I cant work that out.

I have had some problems in posting pictures - in selecting the images icon, the screen gets lightly greyed over (as usual) but no image selection box comes up. Effectively frozen in that situation. Have to abandon the post, close the window and start again. Seems to co-incide to when I think the site might be busiest - say 8:30am to 10:00am PC laptop, Windows 7, IE 11.

Only happens occasionally, but regularly. Now I make sure I try to insert images before I type much text!

That's exactly what I am seeing as well. Refuses to progress to the 'Insert Image' dialogue box.

Sometimes when replying to quoted text, typing a word sometimes goes up a level.

Me too. The way around it for me is "Go Advanced" then I don't have any letters skip to the line above.
I remember someone bringing this issue up a while back but can't remember the resolution.

The other way around it is to leave only one blank line after the quoted bit. Prevents the problem for me.

I have the same problem on a PC, using firefox, but it is only intermittent haven't figured out the sequence completely, seems to happen with reply's more than

It seems to have settled down for me on AFF but writing emails on yahoo can get pretty frustrating-misplaced letters,missing words etc.

You may have to migrate soon, all the press reports suggest the imminent demise of Yahoo!

 

[drron]

It certainly feels like it when using yahoo.I do have a gmail and Hotmail accounts still active.Hotmail is used for all those things I might read once in a while so only visited once a month to clear the decks.

Not sure if anyone can help,
I use chrome browser... if i click a direct link to an AFF thread say from an email or off another website it always comes up access denied. For me to then access the link i have to then goto the main AFF page, then copy and paste the link again and then it works. Also similar happens if i open a few tabs, if i leave them open for a while and come back and refresh, same access denied error.

I use Mozilla Firefox and have no trouble. Gave up IE years ago, but I will try to see if I get a problem. Nope - no problems either with IE. You have exhausted my font of tech wisdom, so good luck

Was having similar problems replying to quotes and line problems as some had mentioned earlier in this thread.. was becoming frustrating but I'll try the tips mentioned.
