New AVSIM site format not working with Apple computers?

Featured Replies

I don't mind the new format (always willing to try something new), and it looks good on my PC. But I do most of my web stuff on several Apple / Mac products, and have noted that the site is almost devoid of anything on those devices (I see the forum link, etc. but no news or even advertising, and some of the links to reviews etc. don't seem to work). Do I need to do anything with the Apple devices to get this working?Thanks, Bruce.

Bruce, I am glad to have that input, but am unsure of what we can do about it. The site works in all the major browsers that we have tested.

Bruce,Are you using Safari on the Mac? Don't forget that the Ipad does not display Flash, might be some display problem here...

There must be something else going on. I am using a Mac and everything is displayed perfectly.

Hi Katy,Thanks, yes I am using Safari on both my iPad and MacBookPro. Maybe I should try another browser on the MBP. I note that both launch a new web page when going to the forums, although I seem to recall that my PC didn't ( could be wrong). Thanks for the tip, what browser do you recommend for the MBP?Thanks Katy, Bruce.

Hi Bruce,I am using Safari version 5 on my mac. I also tested the new site on my iPad running iOS 4 along with Safari and it is loading fine over there as well.Robert

Bruce,I just checked the site on my Ipad and it looks fine, so not sure what is going on with yours. On the Mac I used Firefox, you could check what happens with it though...

Ok, I found it. On my two Apple devices, if I go to the address www.avsim.NET, it works fine ( the key was that my Apple devices open a new site when going to the forums, like my PC used to do but now doesn't). But, www.avsim.COM gives me a stripped down site where links don't work.However, www.avsim.COM on my pc gets redirected to the correct place.I don't understand it all, but thought I would share this.Thanks, Bruce.
