Cannot post to forums from iPad Pro 2021 11"

Hiyo. Not a big deal, but I find that if I try to post a reply from the iPad pro 11" 2021 version, I just get a silly error about the session having timed out (I've just logged in) and no luck. Twice in the last week. What it is? Part of a larger issue with signing in on Safari on this iPad? I dunno.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

The stored session cookie on your iPad is interfering with your ability to post. This is not uncommon.


The easiest fix is to tap Cancel - then refresh the web-page, signing-in again if necessary. It may be necessary to repeat this more than once.


Alternatively, clearing your cache will remove all cookies. Ne aware that clearing your cache is a much bigger “hammer” than is necessary to “crack the nut” - and will have broader effect to your open browsing sessions:

Settings > Safari > Clear History & Website Data
