Anyone else upgraded to 8.1.2?
I'm still getting weird issues. Today, in the smilie choice box, I'm getting pictures of posters.
As Ed said, there is no consistency in the issues.

I Just switched to Chrome and the problem is solved. Is it a better browser than Safari? I am on my ipad with IOS 8.2 and I was getting icons and yesterday all the top options were screwy. I thought that the site had been changed or rearranged and I would have to figure it all out again. Wish I knew more about Chrome. I think I read somewhere that it tracks you as you search sites and I don't like that much. Maybe I should start another thread on that.

ME Mason knows everything about iPad and Chrome. Hopefully he will respond.
I changed to Chrome before I upgraded to 8.2.
I assume I need to change again to get rid of the weird icons, thanks for the reminder.

We are diligently working on a 'work around' to the Apple update. Hopefully by the end of this week we can have an update.

As we speak we are testing some solutions 'behind the scenes' so if all goes well we can implement shortly.

Thank you! TOTV was horrible on Safari this afternoon but seems better tonight. Atleast, on my iPad.

I have missed you! And, also others from the "unclub". Since I'm in Michigan its one of the few ways I can keep track of what is going on in TV! I told my property manager last week that my tenants can rent my home for another year so its going to be awhile before I make it down! 😥

It makes a good case for not rushing into every OS upgrade that comes down the pike. I haven't upgraded my iPad yet and won't till things like this get cleared up. It seems like it should be Apple's responsibility to fix the problem and not TOTV's.

I'm still having issues after upgrading to 8.1.2

Always different. Same icon for all posts. Large spaces between posts.

Thanks admin. For working on this.

When I opened TOTV last week (I believe) Admin had posted a note suggesting that I upgrade my OS.

Me too on all points!

This morning I couldn't read anything on the entire home page. I decided to open up a post (even though I couldn't see what it was about) and the post was perfectly clear. I just closed out TOTV at that point.

I opened up TOTV a few minutes ago and everything is good! I assume admin was working on the site earlier this morning.

I, too, appreciate all the TOTV team is doing to fix the problem.

Icons all over the place! Never saw so many! Can't understand why it is only TOTV I have a problem with.

Perhaps it is Apple's responsibility, however TOTV is the only website where I encounter wonky problems.
Sometimes it's normal. Sometimes a picture of a cat or a motorcycle will be on every post instead of an avatar.
Sometimes the tabs at the top will be smiley faces and stars or blue bubbles.
Occasionally everything will be blocked out by maple leaves.
I'll almost miss the diversity when Admin fixes the problems.
