Why can't it remember me??

Lately every time I try to reply on anything it pops me to
a place where I have to re-enter and x the box that says REMEMBER ME.
The next thing I try to do anything the same thing happens again.
This is not all the time but most of the time.
What's up with this???

Do you have your 'cookies' set to delete information?

This is usually a setting if you don't want say google to track what you are looking up or to automatically save passwords and credit card info.

Which browser do you use? Mozilla, google chrome etc?

Yes Ed, I concur with Andrew. If you're like me and TRY to encompass some privacy, then I add "Exceptions" for every website that I trust. It then remembers that setting - and... Me!

I have never checked any of those things, wouldn't know where to look for them.
I understand mechanics, but not electronics! :(

March 13, I tried about 10 times to answer a post, every time
it told me I had to log in first, I did, same thing every time.
What can I do to have it REMEMBER ME, I always check that box???

What browser do you use, Ed? FireFox, Chrome, Pale Moon, or Microsoft Edge?

Whichever it is, I think you need to answer YES to the box that says REMEMBER ME.


Cheers,

Ian

Hi Ed, you could try downloading google chrome or mozilla and use it only for this forum. It might save you a lot of hassle. At least if you try it with another browser you will know if it is the browser that is causing it or not?

I am not good on computers, I understand mechanical things but electronics
is too new. May grandkids understand it but they live 1800 and 3500 miles away.
I actually get the website on Google Chrome, didn't understand the previous
question I guess. Me e-mail is aol.

Ok..I have just updated the forum software.
Lets see if this fixes your issue ED.....If not there is something over there that needs a tick mark added or removed.

:D

Something with your machine Ed.

Which browser do you use?
There may be some wonky options set.
Here are some things to check based on browser...

Internet Explorer
Click Tools or the gear icon at the top of the browser window.
Select Internet Options.
Click the Privacy tab and then the Advanced button on that tab.
Ensure that "Override automatic cookie handling" is checked.
Set the First and Third party cookies to "Accept."
Check "Always allow session cookies."
Click OK.
Exit Internet Explorer and restart your browser

Chrome
Steps are the same for both PC and MAC.
Click on the Chrome menu button on the browser bar.
Click "Settings."
Scroll down and click "Advanced."
In the Privacy and security section, click Content Settings.
Click Cookies.
Click the slider to "Allow sites to save and read cookie data (recommended)."

Mozilla Firefox
Click the menu button Menu icon.
Click Content Blocking.
Click Privacy & Security.
In the "Content Blocking" section, select Standard.

Maybe one of these will help and make a difference.
Good luck.

I'm glad you understand electronics as well as mechanics!

I was born 2 generations too early for computers :(

This is why computers can Never compete with human beings. Can any one of us imagine "Not remembering Ed Parsil.?" Personally he's my adoptive grandfather to me, as well as great friend, mentor. Ed it's not all bad as computers dont have feelings and didn't realize that " Not remembering you" was just SubaRude!

It still happens at least twice a week but after I repeat the
log in process multiple times I can usually get back on again. :roll:
