There have been various issues with members contacting me especially after an update, and with the help of support they suggested following this.

Settings -> Safari -> Clear History and Website Data.

So far it has resolved many of the issues for those who have contacted me.

Let me know if there are any other issues.

Sometimes the above method isn't available. I find there are several ways of posting pics depending on what options are available when you right click. Here is another option.

Right click on the picture. If one of the options are:

View page Source

Hit Control F

A window will pop up - above top right corner there will be a little box

Type jpg  Hit enter

It will automatically go to the first jpg url on the page

That is usually the pic you want

Highlight starting at http: without the " to jpg without the "

In your reply box, click "insert image" paste in the box, click insert

Preview - Post

Thanks!!

Here is one way to post a screen capture from an iPad (or iPhone). If someone knows an easier way, please post.

If you don't know how to do a screen capture on an iPad, please checkout this video. Once you've made the capture, you may want to crop it in the edit mode of your photo library.

Can you tell me where the list of abbreviations is located?

I have notifications set up to go to my email every time someone posts a new post in Josh's thread. Since a new page was started for them I'm noticing that I'm not getting email notifications. , I clicked on "watch this topic" on the new page. Does anyone know why I wouldn't be getting email confirmation?
Also,
Is there a way to flag or mark a post that you like and want to refer back to ? after I read the posts or watch a video that someone posted, a few days go by and when I go look for it , it either takes forever or I can't find it. Anyway to notate certain posts? TIA
