Problems with posting Replies to the Community comments

It has been know to happen from time to time.

Even the Most Senior Contributors have experienced this issue including myself.

Try Clearing All History and Cookies in Safari

The try again and hopefully it will stop this annoyance

Could not explain it better than the Previous Contributor.

As for direct contact outside of these Forums.

Certain Personal Information is Off Limits from appearing on these Forums

As for communicating with Apple on this Specific Issue.

Perhaps using this link may help

This happens sometimes if you are using a VPN or proxy service. You need to turn it off or use Chrome browser instead.

I am gonna reply and see what happens. The problem maybe would be, you can´t even respond yourself if the issue persists.

I am not sure about contacting community members but you could mail me instead ***@icloud.com

Victoria,

If the hosts are re/moving or editing a post that you are attempting a response, this can happen. There can also be a momentary network lapse somewhere between you and the Apple discussions server that can trigger this annoyance. And so can not posting a response in the allowed timeout window. Sometimes, you can click Cancel, and attempt another reply and it will offer to use the contents of your last failed attempt at posting.

And then, there is just an inexplicable trip into the Apple twilight zone where there is no explanation, and this has happened to all of us on multiple occasions.

It's just a bug. Apple was updating the site yesterday. That may be what was logging you out. Then you hit yet another bug related to restoring your session. Don't try to click on that "Please log in again to restore your reply" link that you are offered. It won't work.

If this happens to me, I just clone or duplicate the tab....Click the "Reply" button to log back into the communities which many times will include a link to continue my previous reply from where I left off which most times will work. I always re-read the reply to make sure my most recent changes are still applied. An extra step, but tends to work unless the logout was due to a website issue.

I think it's related to number of posts that have been selected as helpful. There seems to be a threshold when met allows unlimited posts, i.e. related to "reputation" score.

And it's not just me that feels that way, it's my grandson and a couple of his buddies.

Although this thread is old, and the solution to this issue may have started to collect dust in your brains long ago, I just wanted to pop in and say that refreshing the page usually fixes this issue.

As etresoft said, the "Please log in again to restore your reply" button is useless, (as of about a week ago, that is.)

Enjoy your week!
