Son-of-a-Weizen Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 If I use the laptop, can stay signed in here for long spells. When I use this iPad......seems like I have to sign back in over and over again throughout the day. Why is this? Bad Kharma? Other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjzee Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Don't use the iPad app; instead, use Safari to sign in here, just like on your home computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted May 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 That's actually what I've been doing. Don't even have the app. Hmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dolan Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) Son-of, one thing I've noticed about the iPad is that it tends to have that time honored Wind'ohs disease of getting a little bonkers on you after it hasn't been properly nurtured for a period of time. My suggestion: back it up, then restore it from your backup. Kind of a pain in the ass, but I've found it does the trick far more often than not. I haven't experienced the problem you've described, but have experienced many things similar to it.

mjzee Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Or some similar advice: try rebooting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dolan Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) YES!!!! My bad. Definitely try that first. Thanks, mjzee! I guess I had made the assumption that he had already tried that...

Peter Friedman Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I use my iPad here far more than my desktop computer. Your signing in issue is not something I face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dolan Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) Same here. I use my iPad and iPhone to post here around 80% of the time. I had problem with remaining signed in when I was using Chrome, but I was just having a boatload of problems with Chrome in general. The wife kept goading me into giving Safari a second chance, and I've been incredibly pleased with it.

tranemonk Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 I use Chrome on my IPad and generally don't have any problems with this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dolan Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Chrome worked fine up until the last update. Then I started getting the "red warning screen of death", forgotten passwords on multiple sites, and constant and consistent crashes. I'm still a huge fan of the full version of Chrome, mostly because I prefer the faster stripped down browsers (had been using Opera for years before Chrome came out). But, Safari is both faster and more stable on iOS. At least that's been my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjb Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I usually use Atomic Web on my iPad. It has quite effective Adblocker and remember password functions. Pretty quick too. I also use OpenDNS server list at: 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve(thelil) Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 I use Chrome on my IPad and generally don't have any problems with this site. I didn't even realize there is Chrome for iPad. Thanks for the tip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
