I don’t really know what this belongs to. Either Village Pump or General Chat. Anyways, my computer can’t let me patroll changes or create articles anymore. How sad:frowning:So, I thought it would be better if I go on wikiHow with an iPad. It is better:slight_smile:I can create articles and do normal things on wikiHow again:smiley:At first, I thought that doing things on an iPad will be wrong because maybe other wikiHow users wouldn’t be able to see my contributions. But, I was wrong. It worked out great. So I’m just dropping by to say that I am an iPad user now! Is there any problems about using the iPad that will affect wikiHow? Let me know!

I use an iPad and find that it’s been fine.

Yup, wH should work on everything!:slight_smile:BTW, General Chat was the right choice.

Oh, I knew it!

You should be a bit careful when doing RC patrol cause you could tap the wrong button and accidentally revert a good edit/patrol a bad edit. I use wikiHow on my iPod touch and since the screen is much smaller than an iPad, I don’t do much RC patrol.

Thanks for the tips @Illneedasaviour I am more cautious when it comes to RC Patroll and Ipad!

Well, on my computer, I can still post forum messages.:smiley:

Why won’t your computer let you patrol or write articles?

@KernelPone how to make your computer let you patrol or write articles? write it !

Good idea. I need to figure out what is wrong with their computer first…

@KernelPone I am not able to patroll recent changes and create articles because, Patrolling: Whenever I see an edit and I press Mark as Patrolled, it doesn’t move on to the next edit. I press on it again just to see if I pressed the first time to lightly and it didn’t work. I was pretty bummed out… Creating a wikiHow article: After I finish the step by step article about a certain task and I hit publish, it is the same with the Mark as Patrolled option. It wouldn’t move on to the next page where it showed the article of how it looked like publicly. I don’t know if it is just for me. Maybe my computer just asks like that… Shame on you Computer! Well, you could have heard my other Forum where I couldn’t upload pictures but with the Advanced Editing I could. But, it isn’t just for wikiHow. This “button” problem is on other sites as well. Does that answer your question @KernelPone ? Great Idea @Genius_knight ! I wish I knew how to deal with it.

^ I don’t know anything about mobile devices, but can you use a different browser?

Well, what type of Browser should I use?

The problem is with your extensions and browser cache overloading.If you are using chrome or any browser just uninstall it and install it again but make sure you clean up your system by defragmentation or softwares like cclean or tuneup. And whenever your system gets too much heated up it starts to act weird .Also make sure that you are not browsing any other powerful graphic game sites as they will suck up the network bandwidth and also ram.Also do not run too many programs on your computer at the same time.Always run 2 or 3 programs at a time. I hope your computer starts working again.

@Sappires I’m guessing that your browser is out of date. The one thing I could think of for RC Patrol, is that your browser doesn’t support AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript And XML). It is how it grabs the next article for patrolling. What browser and OS are you using on your computer? @Genius_knight The cache doesn’t have much to do with it here, and the extensions shouldn’t either. I would suggest to clean up though (It’s always a good idea).

Well thanks for the help… I kind of forgot what browser meant and I am to lazy to look it up. But, I’m pretty sure you ment Dell, Vaio, et.c. I have Vaio. @Genius_knight I don’t know if you play Minecraft… But, if you do, does that have powerful graphics?

@Sappires That’s not what I meant, but you’ve indirectly told me that you (most likely) have Windows. Minecraft isn’t too heavy on the graphics.The browser is the most important part here…

Oh… But anyways. I almost gave up before I checked out my Control Panel. I added another Account for my Computer and it’s working like a pro! I never became more happy:smiley:

That’s good.

^ Agreed. I’m able to do the things that I couldn’t do for about 2 months on wikiHow!
