Title: New iOS Update vs OU.com JPG files
Post by: web000x on April 26, 2017, 01:47:39 AM
Ever since I updated my iphone and my iPad last week, I haven't been able to view the jpg files that you guys post on the forum.  I can see png files but the jpg files give me a network connection error when I try to view them.  I contacted apple support and it turns out that they also can't see the jpg files at overunity.com.  Is there anyone else experiencing this with iOS?  It seems to work fine on my PC...

Can you see .jpg files on other sites?   If not it sounds like another bonehead Apple screwup.  I did notice that some browsers on a PC won't show all the pictures here.   You might try a browser other than Safari.

Yes, I can see jpg files at other sites but not here at OU.  I'm surprised more people aren't reporting this as an issue because the apple support tech used his personal iPhone (software updated) to try and access the jpg files at overunity.com and found that they too were blank on his device.

The first picture is what I see when I scroll thru the feed and the second is when I try and click on the jpg link.


I did try a couple of browsers other than Safari but they did the same thing..

while I have mostly Androids I have one iphone with ios 9.3.2 on it (to maintain the JB) and looked at the same exact page and post as you showed from Magluvin using Chrome.   It shows all the pictures with no problem.   I'll try Safari.   Apple has f'd something up in their latest OS and I'm sure that's why the Apple tech couldn't see it either.   Or it may be a new 'feature' incompatible with something here.

Same thing with Safari - all pictures show up fine.   Personally I'd never own an Apple product as my primary computer, phone or tablet.  It's all too locked down.   Doubt you can go back to a previous iOS.   Decided I didn't want Apple products when I met Steve Jobs in person 36 years ago.   8)

Well, this still really sucks...  Nobody else with an iOS operating system of 10.3.1 or later experiencing this problem?  I've been told by apple that OU.com has a web development problem.  Please, if you have an iPhone or iPad, check your version of iOS and try logging into OU.com and view the JPG files that are posted in the messages.  Post your results, please.


Thanks,


Dave

Hey Dave, I'm also on an iphone ver. 10.3.1 and can't see any images. Neither in safari nor Firefox. There's a new software update but I haven't downloaded it yet to see if it fixed the issue.

Side note, it is iOS because images can be saved and viewed from the gallery, just not in a browser. I'm not a part of any other forum that uses SMF, but I wonder if it's just overunity.com that has this bug??

I eagerly installed the new update, 10.3.2, hoping that it would fix the problem.  It did not.


How are you saving images to the gallery and viewing them?  All of my attempts at using 'backdoor' solutions proved fruitless...


Thanks,


Dave

If I were you I'd try several different browsers - not Safari.   Safari probably got changed in the update also and it might be more about a browser problem than the actual OS.   There are a lot of other good and probably better browsers for iOS - like Firefox, Opera etc.

I've tried Chome and another 3rd party browser, all show the same issue.  I think it is an actual update within iOS.

I can see the image in the link you provided, webby.

To my surprise, I can also see an image in this thread- http://overunity.com/8796/magnetic-amplification-and-neutralization-motor-by-art-porter/msg507054/#new

Clicking on the visible image link takes me to the page to view it, where it is visible. However, clicking the next image link (of image not visible) takes me to the "network connection lost" page.

Bump  :(


None of my iOS devices can see image files at Overunity.com.  All images give me a blank screen when I try to view.


***Overunity.com has an INCOMPATABILITY with the iOS operating system***


Does anyone know how to contact admin?


Thanks

Well of course apple is going to say it's not their problem and point at someone else.   They have a big attitude.  OU.com doesn't have a web development problem - IOS has an incompatability with older standards - this forum software is simply a free open source software that unlike VBulletin and some other paid software that has a lot of paid employees working to keep up with every new change in Internet languages SMF forums relies on standards that have worked for years.   Apple chose to ignore an older standard and now you have a device which is locked to Apples strict proprietary standards that only works for newer Internet protocols and languages.  Take a look at http://www.underservice.org/ (http://www.underservice.org/)  another SMF energy forum and see if you can see images there.  The third post on this page has an image:  http://underservice.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=b3b7dc569653bd22503c7193e0bc0670&topic=255.0 (http://underservice.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=b3b7dc569653bd22503c7193e0bc0670&topic=255.0)
If you can see that than I will back track and say this forum needs to change something but I'm guessing most probably you won't see the image there either.
Also check this page as it has a different method of posting images in SMF and let me know if you can see the 3 images in the second post:
http://underservice.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=b3b7dc569653bd22503c7193e0bc0670&topic=3.0 (http://underservice.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=b3b7dc569653bd22503c7193e0bc0670&topic=3.0)

The Underservice site displays images in IOS browser
Something about how the images are pulled into the html
Needs to be updated for .mobile http services
Should be an instructional from the developers of the forum software


Stephan - if you are reading this, you have quite a few mobile platform users
               That cannot see images. Unless they log on with a pc.

I CAN see the images at the site you’ve linked.  Overunity.com has issues.

If you see pics on the above forum,, it is my play forum, then SMF is not the problem,, it is a site admin problem for OU,, they both use SMF but with my play site I do not push ads and stuff and have most things set as default,, including the auto sizing to thumbs of pics.


I can also see the images from the site you’ve posted.

So there we have it:


Check resizing settings
And make sure there is a compatible resize
For mobile platform


Also, those same settings may fix the other image problems
Like Too Big, etc

I just checked on overunity.com with my android phone.  I can see all images in any message thread with no problems.   So it is not related to the mobile format but again it is something IOS is doing that is not compatible with a format here that works for both PC and Android.  I will assume it may be fixable by Stefan but he has a lot of addons in this site so it is possible it may not be fixable here.   I am sure Apple could fix it if they wanted to.   But they seem to always want to force their methods and changes on others.  They seem to always want to eliminate things - especially hardware - first the floppy drive (can't say that was a bad thing) then CD drives, less buttons on everything, no headphone jack on their phones - always eliminating things that worked fine and usually with profit in mind.  It would seem to me that if you could see images on an older IOS version then it is Apple that needs to fix this.   But you can certainly ask Stefan if there is anything he can do.

I sent Stefan (admin) a message to see if he can do anything to fix this.

Stefan (admin) said he would try to see what he can do about this but probably not before January.   I'd still suggest getting a cheap Android phone or tablet.   In this age of computers there is no reason to be limited by one companies imposing limits on your viewing ability when computers and phones are so cheap now.   I've been seeing 4Gb dual core Windows 10 laptops on Tigerdirect for around $150.   You can buy Android tablets all day long fro around $50.   Android phones are now often as cheap as $10 which you can use on Wifi and don't even need to get a phone contract with a carrier if you shop around.   You can even make phone calls on Wifi using Hangouts, Textnow or other apps freely available.   Just some alternatives for you ...

Thank you for conveying that to Stefan.
