Title: Mac halp!!!!!!
Post by: rybett on September 25, 2012, 04:51:34 PM

Is there a simple way to upload photobucket stuff to a thread on a Mac?  Thus far I have been unable to figure it out and it's driving me sane!  I can do it easily from DD's PC, but for whatever reason hubby has yet to fix the router to quit kicking that 'puter off the net.  HALP!!!!!!!!!!   :dumbpc:

Erm, I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean the photobucket box to insert images when you go to reply to a thread or make a post? I am a mac user and see that just fine.  If you don't see it it's probably more to do with you browser than that type of computer you're using.

I can see it, when I try to use it, nothing happens to the post.  Using Safari.

Have you tried an alternate browser just in case its a little compatibility issue with your particular version of Safari or its current updates?

Nope, just got the thing.  Got a browser suggestion?

For Mac...try Opera or Chrome initially and see if either of those makes it easier - Safari can be a bit sticky sometimes subject to the machine and operating system. Browsers are such weirdly personal choices arent they!

Chrome I understand.  Opera Dad swears by, or at.  I disremember.  Will give this a shot.  Much thanks cat!

YAY!!!   :hearts: :green:

Dad is left handed, therefore in his right mind.  This seems to have worked.  Now to get Mr IT guy to figure out the router before Dr Charlotte gets frustrated with getting kicked off the net...
