1958 F.W.D. Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Yup, if you are running internet explorer, if it's latest updates are not installed and don't correspond with the forum's software, it causes hiccups- or so I am told, use to happen to me here all the time. I have since switched to chrome, and have zero issues. 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35233-cant-copy-and-paste/#findComment-239817 Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer52 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I just purchased a new computer with Windows 8.1 and Internet Explorer 11. There are issues but I am not switching to an earlier version or Chrome or ????? IE11 has issues in BMT with copy/paste and quotes. Who knows what other issues will surface.

other dog Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Yup, if you are running internet explorer, if it's latest updates are not installed and don't correspond with the forum's software, it causes hiccups- or so I am told, use to happen to me here all the time. I have since switched to chrome, and have zero issues. That's what I did. I switched from AOL to IE because AOL started to suck, then when I discovered google chrome I started using that and have ever since, everything seems to be bigger, stronger, faster...

farmer52 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 MACKS,WIN8.1 was introduced for "us" who prefer an earlier version like XP. BTW, Microsoft is quitting support for WIN XP on April 8, 2014.

57 bcr Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 The quote feature, Yardo!...........You know, in the lower right hand corner. It will not allow me to "quote" somebody's post,as in a reply. No biggie. I posted it a couple months back,and other guys were having the same trouble. Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!

Barry Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It's hard to say what issues may arise with IE...especially IE11! We have to block all IE11 updates at work because Mack's web applications as well as our in house inventory applications will not run on IE11! BMT is completely up to date and supported by Invision Power boards so we aren't running any old, out of date software or anything. I just think IE doesn't like to play well with others!

Freightrain Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Ya, I can't post pics, quotes, or hyperlink anything at home(with IE). I use chrome at work and it works okay. Guess I gotta change things at home. Thanks for clearing this up as it was driving me nuts. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
