Okay, it's not a biggie...andnyes....I have it set on Plain Text and never change it....
I'll be on a page...scroll down.....I'll get ready to type something ....or read a post and itllw scroll right back up to the top!
WAIT! There's more! OR.....say I'm on the forums page...I scroll down to tap onto a thread...does the same thing, scrolls up and down a time or two and then settles down so I can finally tap into a thread....THEN...it might go to that post, but then bounces back to the forum lage.
Just wondering if anynother tablet people have the same issue, perhaps???
Again, it's not a biggie...just ANNOYING.....kinda' likenyou may find somenof these tablet issues to be...ANNOYING!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR ADMIN GUY!!!!!

Hey Sally, it sounds like your connection or a memory issue. How many apps are open?. I know when our connection is slow, or I have too many apps open, that can happen.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Sometimes the only other app I have open at the same time is gmail. Right now Inhave no apps running and it's still doing it
HOWEVER, If connection could be causing the problem...that's it then....I still have huge issues getting a good sgnal out here. It's just too darn cold to keep walking around outside searching for a signal!!
Yeah CHRIS! You can be away for a year and count in some things to never change!!! LOL!!!
LOVE!!!!

Nope, Sally. It definitely isn't your connection, because mine does exactly the same thing. Any other forums/sites I go on do not have these problems. It gets beyond frustrating to try to read a post and have the screen bounce back up to the top, freeze up, and then just stay on the top post. If and when it finally settles after that, I can scroll down to the post I was trying to read in the first place. Sometimes when I hit the "unread posts" number in the right hand column, it will just sit there like, "you want me to do WHAT?" Or it will shift itself over to some other part of the forums that I absolutely know I have not tapped, because it us something that doesn't even show there.
Grouse, grouse, grouse!
A lot of the time I just give up on reading until I can get on the laptop, where it does just what I tell it to do. I feel for you that you don't have that option.

Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!

Just one more thought...the problem started right about the time that the funny little symbol for sharing (at least that is what I think it is) showed up on the screen. I never go to those, but I'm sure many people do. Maybe the tablet type of computer doesn't like that.
Now I will be quiet and watch the game.

Hey that is really great information to know, thank you Sally & Kathi. I will pass this along to Admin. Having a family get-together today but will have him work on that this weekend. Anyone else who can provide feedback to pinpoint this issue would be great. Thanks!

Haha too funny, Admin and I work together all day every day but someimes I never know what he's doing! Just told him about this discussion and he said he is aware of it and working with the developer to figure something out. When I told him that it seems to have started when the "share" icon started appearing, he says it's been up a whole year almost, so he doesn't think that's the issue but is conidering removing it to see if that helps. Funny thing is that this issue doesn't happen on our tablet. Weird. Gotta love all the devices and operating systems we need to be compatible with now. Thanks for your patience while we figure it out.

That grey circle with the sideways V and funny dot-like ends just showed up on my ipad quite recently.

Hee hee. I know we are weird that way.
He is looking at the issue now and said something about removing that button to see if it helps. Stay tuned.

The quick links at very top and black navigation bar under the header are both visible on the iPad. Clearing your cache may help. We are working on the other tablet issues which may address this one for you too. Thank you for your patience!
