I can now see the turntable using Safari on my iPad.
The years have been good to me, it was the weekends that did the damage.

Can some of you having problems please confirm if you can see the pics now?

Permissions on that particular album (Ivebridge) were set to Guests only - have changed it to all users ;)

Thanks Sprintex. Don't think I set any permissions initially but will watch out when posting new ones.

A question for the mods, why does the system default to guests, not members?

That is one question you will have to direct to the boss  ;)

Do not worry, I am sure he will spot it, he has eyes everywhere  :D

I've gone back through all my albums and checked they've got read permission for members. It looks like it's albums I created after 2012 that were guest only, so maybe it was a default that kicked in last year or something?

If you've got a media album on the site, it's worth going through to check they've got read permission set for registered users.

The default permissions that seem to have been applied to the folders originally were for guests to be able to view the album but not for registered members. So in theory you'd be able to view it when not logged in.

The permissions have been changed so registered members can view the albums now too, so it's odd that you still can't see them. That *might* be a cache issue though.

I never clear my cache on FF because I have so many tabs open and passwords set up. From experience I have found that several refreshes is normally enough to clear the cache for a particular site. I shall see how it is tomorrow.

If you don't wish to clear your cache then try a Forced Refresh (Ctrl + F5).  That should update the pictures.
