The board keeps crashing my iPad. Yesterday and today. Other websites no problem. And no prob on the desktop. Any ideas?

Worse when I go to post and I lose my post. Copy and pasting notes now.

Sorry to hear the iPad is having issues with the site. FYI - the forum hasn't changed recently - in fact it hasn't changed in years.

I use my Android phone to read and sometimes post on this forum and haven't experienced any crashes. I use the "Opera Mini" browser.

Perhaps you could install an alternative browser on your iPads?

Opera mobile for Symbian here. Works perfectly well even if the PC denies to load the pages tongue.gif

Tis ok Dan. Will try one of those browsers though. Not fond of Safari. Forum still works great on the iPhone.

Dan, I posted here last night from the ipad (first time since having issues) and it worked fine. Did you fix something?

Nope, I haven't made any changes to the forum. Glad to hear it's working again thumbsup.gif
Maybe a software update on your iPad resolved the issue?

I used to have that problem but I haven't for a while. It was worse on the iPad one. I researched the cause of crashes on the iPad and there are a number of ways to reduce the drag on the System which eliminates the crashing problem. Make sure to close out unnecessary open applications and eliminate most of the stuff in the spotlight search because that drags the system in the background.
