Re: Macintosh problems with the new Forum?

I had the same problem with my iPad. I tried the link offered in the thread near the top of this forum under ‘Weird login issues - Firefox’. That worked for me. No idea why.

Had the same problem with my iPad. I ended up using the link from a response to the thread near the top of this forum under ‘Weird login issues- Firefox’. That worked for my iPad.
