Hugo, you are on this side of the world. There is only one line that divides the world into 2 halves - the equator.

Looks like everything is working fine here. Look forward to the learning.

Gerald, I'm here. Thanks!

Testing real name / user name.

Marc, do you want me to change your user name to real name?

All seem fine / like the new format.

Gerald,

Yes, please!

Dumb Question
 

How do I change New Mexico Wood Worker (user name) to Greg J (real name)?:confused:

Greg, I couldn't wait to change that one! :)

Things are getting back to 'normal' quickly.
 

Great work Gerald. I like the new forum.

Greetings Gerald and all, back today from a hectic two weeks visiting trade shows in Germany (Heck its expensive there...) New forum looks good, congrats.

Gerald,

Thanks for changing that. Enjoying the new forum. Hope I don't get to tied up with the "new" look and get back to building.

Thanks for all your hard work.
Greg

Gerald, I would like for my user name (mrgadget) to be changed to my real name (Jay W) if it's not too much trouble. Thanks....

Hey Gerald, Just getting back to the forum after a whirlwind week. Thanks for changing that for me!

Gerald, profiles updated.

Hi, just me. Test, Test, Test

I am hvaing troubles login in and down loading files

David,
Your post just came thru....try again. If you can post, then you should be able to download. Sean

New kid in town.
 

Just got on and like what I'M seeing. Hope I can help so were down the road but I'm new at this. Dan

Welcome Dan! I'm also in Ohio but quite a ways away. I'm in Cleveland. You will find that this is THE most interesting site on the Internet.

An update on my downloading problems.

Upon entering the forum I am automatically logged in, my user name and details appear and everything is fine.
However
When I try to download a file I am a sked to log in, which I do and then I get the "Welcome DavidP you are logged in" I am then re directed to the log in page, from there I navigate back to the downloads page and it all starts over again. Please log in etc etc.

Deja veu again, and again.

David

David told me this morning he uses a Mac.

Will check with vBulletin tonight if they have a cure for the Mac users........other than switching to a PC. :)

Gerald,
As a good citizen - I sent David the files and profiles from my wifes Mac today so he could get started with the files. I didn't want a little thing like his mac slowing down getting started on his MM upgrade for his Shopbot. :)
Sean

Gerald/David...
I also have a Mac and have never had a problem downloading from this site.

I just now downloaded ProfilesBends09Nov07.zip without any hitches.

David... you can email me and we can go over the problem you are having if you so desire, but I do not believe Gerald's site is at fault...

Bill

Firstly let me thank all of you for your assistance. It has great.

An update, I have been able to download files from different threads on the forum. In fact nearly everytime I have encountered a download I have tried it and it has worked. The only problem I have is downloading from the downloads thread.

Sean emailed the first two files to me yesterday and they were fine.

Last night I dragged my work computer, a Dell PC, home and hooked it up to the network and downloaded the files. It worked fine, so as Gerald has already stated it is not my account.

I believe that the problem is with the "cookies" and how V Bulletin and my browser are reading sending them.

Bill can I ask what browser are you using and what OS. I have had a cursory glance at the V Bulletin website but nothing jumps out at me. I will also serach the Apple developers site as well to see if anyone is able to shed some light on this problem

I will keep searching.

Once again thank you for all of your help.

Regards,

David

David, the only difference with the downloads page is that it is closed to public posting. See if you can download a big file from the archived "downloads" (also closed for posting) over here:
http://www.mechmate.com/forums/showthread.php?t=375
If that doesn't work, I'll open that thread and then you can try it again.

David,
I run Firefox on my PC and my Imac without any problems with the site. Safari does have a cookie conflict with some posting forum sites. CNCZone always gives me a fit in safari...firefox - no problemo.
Sean

David...
I'm on an intel iMac running Safari and OS X10.4.10, but my other machine iMac G5 worked just as well (OS X 10.3)

Bill McGuire

Gerald, Sean and Bill,

Eureka!!!!

I now works. I am using an Intel Mac with 10.4.10 and safari.

I deleted all of the Mechmate cookies and logged in again and everything is fine. It seems there must have been some corruption with the cookies.

So thank you all for your assistance and help.

David.
