I cannot get text fields either to post or answer PMs. And I cannot post without adding an image. Again, not getting text field. Systemwide? Or did I accidentally change a setting? Any guidance? 1 1

I had this happen to me yesterday. I thought it was because my browser updated, but then it stopped happening for no apparent reason.

It's good to know we can make thread titles that long.

I had no idea! I've been keeping the titles brief, but now I can really go to town!

Well you get the award for the longest Godamm thread title I've ever seen.

This will come in handy.

step one--- make sure you don't have something simple like a stuck key on your keyboard--- the control or shift key can really mess you up.

press all the keys to loosen a stuck key. sounds dumb but it happens

also-- have you tried rebooting your machine?

Do you also work for Dell support?

If you are using a mouse, you probably need a new battery.

no -- just that simplest explanation is usually the best place to start.

Also -- if you ever watch that British show The IT Crowd you would get the second part about rebooting the machine http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0487831/?ref_=nv_sr_7

Yes, Dell support was around way before the TV show, ha.

I'd just try clearing your cache and cookies and logging back in.

For now! It's early yet.

Update!

Thanks all -- I could not reply, obviously -- I am now trying my laptop since I got it back from the kids, and  no problem. All my issues were (might still be? -- I will check again) with my iPad. I have tried the basic stuff on there; clearing, rebooting, log out and in again, but none of that helped.

And anybody who did not know about potential headline length -- you're welcome, but you have obviously never shopped the sales  boards if that was news to you!

Arch,

I am now replying from the iPad as well. I had previously cleared the browser from the Safari program to no avail; I then cleared from Settings and this worked for the iPad. Thx!

I did capture screenshots of what the problem looked like; will post as FYI in case others encounter when also using iCrap.

PM attempt and thread reply attempt, respectively:
