As some of you might have guessed, I have been on yet another of my numerous cruises. The latest one was to the Adriatic, and I will be writing a blog entry about it sometime over the next few days.
I did manage to upload some blog entries whilst I was away … but in the process I discovered a couple of minor problems. Firstly my iPad will not allow me to correct any errors … it just deletes the entire blog entry instead! Secondly I have been able to read readers’ comments, but have been unable to respond to them. I type my replies, press ‘Publish your comment’ … and nothing happens.
I suspect that these problems may be due to an incompatibility between the iPad’s software and Blogger’s software … but so far I cannot find any solutions. It may also be due to the very poor connection that I was using. (Aboard the cruise ship I was on the Internet connection is via a satellite link that can be interrupted if the ship is moving anything but very gently.).
I am sure that I am not alone in having the software problems, but if I find a way to solve them or get around them, I will let my regular blog readers know how I did it.
PS. I love cruising … but it is good to be back!

ReplyDeleteThis comment via iPad
I had the same 'spontaneous deleting' issue with iPad a few months ago. No problem with comments though. I was even able to leave comments using my iPhone from abroad recently.
ReplyDeleteSgt Steiner,
ReplyDeleteInteresting! I have now tried adding comments via my iPad at home ... and it works ... so that problem may well be due to the Internet connection I was using aboard ship.
I have not tried uploading photographs as yet. If I manage it, I will let you know!
All the best,
Bob
Tim Gow,
ReplyDeleteI remember you mentioning this problem before. As we are both suffering from it, it may well be due to some sort of interface problem between the two programs. If I find a solution, I will let you know.
All the best,
Bob
Good to have you back Bob, regardless!

Jim Duncan,
ReplyDeleteIt is great to be back, even though both my wife and I each seem to have come down with a ferocious Summer cold!
All the best,
Bob
Sounds like you now need a Caribean cruise to compensate!!

ReplyDeleteFunny you should say that but ...
All the best,
