Techie1 + 2,024 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Since upgrading to iOS6 (iPad2) if I click the blue dot to open at the latest post, it ends up scrolling down to the post reply box. This doesn't seem to happen on other forum sites. Is this a known problem? Is anyone else getting this? It's a bit annoying especially for the very popular topics.

Scoop 330 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I'm getting it too! Just thought it was me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penbwlch 810 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 This sounds like an issue related to the ipad and is not one I have heard of before.. Is that what you are using, Scoop? Once I have your answer, Scoop, I will have a word with our techies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop 330 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Yep I'm using an iPad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penbwlch 810 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Thanks for the confirmation. I will now contact our techies. Just had a thought, does the "i" in iPad stand for incontinence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikerider 5 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 This may just save someone some money for computer repairs (Sorry Pen) I use a windows system and have never used any other, however I received a 'pop-up' on my screen announcing that I had new 'Apple' updates available for my computer, just click to download. I clicked to delete! I went into an Apple Computer centre in Newcastle on Monday and asked them about it (Like walking into a lions den) and asked them about it. Apple do not send out such things as this and it was possibly a virus or someone trying to gain access to my computers memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penbwlch 810 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Don't worry, BR, it that won't cost me any business. What you had was not likely to be a virus or a hacker; just Apple trying to pretend that viruses only happen on Windows machines. That is totally untrue and sounds like an attempt to defraud you of your money by an Apple vendor. What you actually had, most likely, was an attack by someone trying to sell you something. This would have been instigated by spyware or just cold calling, using one of a number of lists of ip addresses that circulate amongst unscrupulous sellers.

Penbwlch 810 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I have reported it and am still waiting for a reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penbwlch 810 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I have now had the following reply:- Thanks, I will look into this. Seems like a very odd issue to be ipad specific. I will let you know as and when I find anything out. I agree that it is odd to be just iPad specific. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone have a full blown Apple computer? Does this problem happen on that? Any other computer types (other than Windows, that is), do you have this problem on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problems. Also on Windows, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Avant, IE, Safari. Have the mac types tried more than one browser. Apples Safari offering is not the dogs danglers.

Penbwlch 810 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Ok, I have passed voiceofreason's comments to our techies. Does anyone have an Apple desktop that they can try it with, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penbwlch 810 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I have now tried Safari in Windows and it worked correctly, so it is not Safari per se. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
