Title: Green Circles
Post by: fuji on June 07, 2012, 07:31:58 AM
Help!! I have all the circles and lines and arrows on the main page of my ipad and can't read the forum properly. Turned it off, logged off, I have done everything. Does the administrator know? BigJules?
It is on this forum only.

Have you tried a different browser? Ours does weird things like that now and then.

Tried Tapatalk?

If no joy, give it a full reset.  Hold the button on the screen down whilst pressing the power button, holding them both down until the screen changes back to the Apple logo. release the buttons and wait.

Thought so, it must be the ipad, but all the other sites have been into are okay but not mysawg. It happened once before. If I can take a photo of it I will post it online. Thanks GG

Okay Donuts, we all thought that police were doing work on their computers in their cars.  Now, is it work, or does MySwag accidentally appear on the screen......Only kidding mate.  Hope the problem is solved.

I wish we had it on the screen, for those quiet days of course.

Hey Donuts,

Our ipad does that too at times - this forum seems to confuse Safari, and it overlays all the images in really weird ways. Annoying as all hell.

If you want to take a piccie of it, press the start button and the power button together. Don't hold them down - just press them both at the same time. Takes a bit of trying to get the hang of it. That makes IOS take a screenshot of whatever's on the screen, and save the image to your camera roll. Handy for things like this, or when you need to email someone a list of photos on how to do something.

I'd suggest tapatalk, but I think I'm the only person who doesn't like it. I paid the money for it, and find it just all really bad. A really bad program (crashes constantly) and a really bad experience for browsing a forum (IMHO). Everyone else loves it, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I really dislike it.

Anyway, I can't offer you any solutions I'm afraid, other than to comiserate and tell you that it's probably going to keep reoccuring...

Cheers!
Matto :)

Google "clearing iPad cache" and that will fix it.

Hi BigJules,

That cache clearing option isn't in version 5.0.1 (at least not that I can see). Maybe it's time I upgraded.

Donuts, it might be an idea to install some other web browsers just in case. We have six installed on ours. Some have functions others don't.  There is one called 'Splitscreen' that obviously has two browser windows beside each other so you can compare two items side by side to see their differences.

I had this issue with my ipad but installing tapatalk fixed that and I haven't had any issues with it since
