I use a BT Broadband Hub on two boxes, Firefox, Google Chrome are used on both, as well as my AOL ISP. This site is working on all with very little problem.
This sounds like it's a browser-specific issue then. Have you tried closing not606 completely and going back in? Otherwise let me know your browser etc. details and I'll pass them on to admin.
Yep, I would agree with that. Try any other browser than the one currently used. I still use Firefox as it is the best all round [despite its odd issues with iPlayer] imo, so perhaps try that. It's fault-free on here, from what I can see. If you try Chrome you force me to install it, if I'm going to give comment to its performance, and I don't want to..! please log in to view this image
I use Firefox on my iPad.....seems alright with the new system. My laptop uses google no problems there either....
No mate its not chrome I tried chrome but had numerous problems. Its just a straight forward Google something or other.....As you can see I am not the most gifted when it comes to the workings of the computer. I am still coming to terms learning to drive my ipad and iphone. It is getting easier as those two are similar. Also it seems I am telling porkies......My ipad is Safari as is my iphone. Where the bloody hell did firefox come from...I am going round the twist....ok don't answer that ........ (Runs off blubbering)
OK. Yep the standard browser for the iPad/iPhone is Safari. That would be enough to make me run off blubbering. If you use an Android tablet then the chances are that you use the standard browser for Android. That isn't Chrome it is true, but it is Chrome/Firefox/Linux based. Actually, it's not a bad browser in itself and all the better in that it isn't that sophisticated. I once tried both Firefox and Chrome on my Galaxy S2 and only just removed them in time before I began frothing at the mouth..! please log in to view this image
A lot of people have stated the same thing although my trouble with chrome was on my laptop. Todate had no trouble on my ipad or Phone
Sorry folks this thread was accidentally locked by someone....probably me, but it is open again now!!
Have to say that I really, really don't like Chrome. I don't like the way you can't customise it, like you can Firefox on a Windows PC [not an Android tablet or phone], and I don't like the way it wants to tie me into Google+ and all the other 'social' formats. If I want to broadcast myself, I'll decide when and where to do it [as on here], thank you Google. I've used Safari on both a Windows PC and an iMac. On both it is initially excellent, but after a short period on the Windows PC it begins to slow down as it grabs more and more resources. One could configure it to stop doing that, but by this this time one realises that one has been screwing around with Safari, and it has been very pretty and slick, but not actually doing much. One gets exactly the same feeling on an iMac, but without the slowing down bit, because it is properly integrated into its native OS. Firefox just gets you there, protects you brilliantly from malware, can make you invisible to trackers and cookie handouts, can make the website think you're another browser, if that's useful, and is the most customisable browser out there. Its downside is that it can be slow to start, but once underway is as fast as any other browser. It's a no-brainer for people who like to do things their way and not be led by the pocket. Funnily enough, Mozilla is partially funded by Google. But only so that Google can have access to code. All those out there in search of speed might like to try browsers like Maxthon, and several other lesser known types. When I first installed Maxthon to try it, I absent mindedly let my index finger fall on the mouse and I blinked at the same time. That initial quite complex homepage changed as I blinked and was fully loaded and formed so that I couldn't be sure whether I was on the same page as before. It was lightning fast. My only indicator was that the back button showed up black and not grey. It had indeed changed. Try it. Very USA, so some people will love it. Others not so.
And you never will. An external browser has never been written for BBC Basic. And yes, I've responded to your joke post seriously. EDIT: What an awful smiley..! please log in to view this image That's better. Less manic.
I use BT Broadband and also have an AOL account for messages, it was left over from when I was using them as my ISP before I changed back to BT.
Do you pay for the AOL..? EDIT: Oh, hang on I get it. You have one broadband account - BT, and just have a leftover email account with AOL which you use and access through BT Broadband. BT is your ISP. AOL just happens to be your old email provider which you still use. For a moment there I thought you were paying through the nose for something you could have much cheaper. Do you get BT Sport free..?
Just to satisfy me [because a brother-in-law also has BT Broadband and doesn't have BT Sport], is it BT Infinity or straight BT Broadband..?
