.....Ive been around here for quite a while and, up till recently, have always been able to visit by simply
tapping the Carpe icon on my desktop (iPad home page)......but over the last little while I am being told that I am not allowed access and am asked to open an account / sign in with a password.......
Whats changed on here ?.....or, alternatively, is it anything to do with updates to my ios?.....any other suggestions ?
......grateful, as ever, for any informed input........
Jiff.

Hi Jiff, no changes here in the past few years tbh. There might be a clicky box for remembering you that needs clicking when you sign in.

As studders has said noubt has changed ear so it's yer i-doodah.

I gave up on the "remember me" long time ago - works on some computers/browsers, not on others... never found out what's the key...

.......as per my previous post to âAdminâ
the Carpe (non)icon on my iPad homescreen has always given me direct accesses to the site, but over the last week or so, I am now refused entry, & told to sign in with a password.......irritatingly laborious (no, Iâm not really grumpy.....honest !)
(note; in the first image my username does not appear in the top right hand corner,
as it always had previously - does that imply that the âremember meâ button is not working ?.....even though it is illuminated.....I have unticked it, & re-ticked it, to no avail)
.........any ideas?

Do you have a non i-doodah you can try?
You normally have to attach images, don't think a copy/paste will work as they need a host.

You can't just copy and paste photos Jiff. you have to click 'More Reply Options' below text box, then 'Choose Files' to upload photos then attach files to post.

- hopefully someone who understands iPads, maybe.... cos thats my only way to do it

Okeedokee Jiff, here's the solution you posted up when you previously had the same problem.

......thanks Studley......you invariably manage to rescue me from the morass of incomprehension !
.....and though the info contained in that link is fairly uninformative, it helped me to the following solution
- which (for anyone else who finds themselves repeatedly âun-rememberedâ / denied access) deciphers as;
this is to do with privacy settings between your machine and the website....which involves the saving / not
of âcookiesâ which info allows / doesnât allow you to be recognised
go to the top right hand corner of the page on this (or most other) websites
you will see an icon like two overlapping squares... tap it
if you are having âbeing recognisedâ problems, you will then see âprivateâ in black type in a white rectangle....tap it
lt will âreverse outâ.....to âprivateâ in white type against darker background....should be problem solved!
phew!......if I havenât got it quite right, someone will doubtless dot the âiâs & + the âtâs.......Jiff.
