Site problems thread

Anyway, to cut a long story short, your information has done the trick. It was Latin to me but Sonny, my oldest grandson, got the iPad back to normal in two minutes.

So thanks again, Lyndon. I was like someone in a room all talking but no-one saw me or listened to me the last few weeks so I missed ToffeeWeb and not being able to put my points of view across really frustrated me.

I was using Safari for a while but that got very slow, so I switched to Google Chrome. Then that ended up being slow and clunky!

As Lyndon says, it's best to clear history regularly. PC / Mobile device hygiene.

When using Safari, threads like Premier League game week # just wouldn't open at all. Anyone any opinions as to why this happened?

I've been having trouble posting, but the information Lyndon has given might as well be written in Greek as I haven't got a clue what any of it means, I'll have to get one of my daughters to sort it it for me.

I'd sooner use pen and paper than send emails. The only time I look online is to browse ToffeeWeb and anything Sport related, I don't do Social Media at all.

Yes, I'm in the same boat as yourself, it's all a foreign country to me.

I used to love reading the papers, especially the Echo, but stopped that a few years ago. the only useful part now is the death column so you can pay your respects to departed friends.

I can beat you on knowing about cookies — you can buy them in Subway, very nice with a cup of tea!

Why does a PC, mobile phone or iPad etc, need cookies? 🤔🤔🤔

The last iPad I bought approximately 10 years ago is now getting ready to be retired. It's too slow now.

Hopefully some very positive news on an everton take over soon. In a couple of days, the ill-fated and doomed 777 deal expires...

Good news in some quarters but this raises big questions about the capex and opex needed to keep Everton FC and the Everton Stadium alive.

Pros

Online shopping experience: Almost all eCommerce websites allow you to put items in a cart, leave the page, and return to resume shopping with your cart intact.

Form submissions: Cookies can remember submitted information such as names and other fields on a form. It can save you valuable time when entering a live chat with your hosting support.

Personalization: Cookies can also help store language preferences and currency preferences as well.

Suggested content: You can see this occur on shopping sites with a “Related Searches” feature. It relies on cookies to collect data, cross reference it with other users who have a similar profile, then make its recommendations.

Security authentication: When entering a session, this allows web servers to know whether a user is logged in. If you don't allow cookies, websites will never remember that you're logged in.

Cons

Privacy: Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. As a result, cookies are stored “invisibly” on your local machine every time you browse the internet. As a result, your browsing history and IP address become public knowledge.

Local storage: These “little” website cookies are actual files stored on your hard drive. The more you visit, the more that is stored. As it builds over time, it can take up quite a bit of storage space on your computer or mobile device.

Unauthorized data collection: Websites may sell the information collected from cookies to third parties or use it to hack into social networks or other online accounts.

Just clean up every now and then and keep your operating system up to date.

Only joking, clear your cookies and your cache and you should be alright. Get the kids to do it.

A bad day for football.

I see Liverpool representatives placed a wreath by the plaque at Anfield.

The media love that club as they employ lots of them. The last time I read anything about Heysel, they didn't mention the club that caused it in the article.

That's because it wasn't Liverpool fans that caused the tragedy, according to them — even though plenty of them were found guilty at the time!
