Q: iOS 7 reading list
-
Nov 27, 2013 5:08 PMby Mkgojets,I tried all those steps, and it still doesn't work. I still get a message saying it can't load the article because I'm not connected to the internet. The step where I go to a secure website to see if I have access to the two ports is confusing. The link leads me to the manage my Apple ID page and gives no indication what to do next.

Nov 27, 2013 5:32 PMby Mkgojets,I have no issues surfing the web. It's the Safari Reading List that's my problem. When I save an article on the reading list, and try to read it on a plane or the subway when I have no internet connection, the article won't load. The whole point of the reading list is to be able to read articles offline and I can't do that.

Nov 29, 2013 5:02 PMby Mkgojets,I don't know why you sent me instructions on how to use the reading list. I know how to use it, I need to know why it won't work on the iPhone. I feel like I've explained this problem clearly several times and I still can't get a clear answer. Is there a solution to this problem or not?

I have the same issue with my 4S/IOS 7.1, reading list would try to load pages from Internet rather than load them from cache, if I turn off Data Usage for Safari/Turn off Data Altogther - they would load just fine! Like you said, it defeats the pupose of Reading List...Any Resolution?
Thanks

You need two things:
Settings>Safari>Use Cellular data for reading list
Settings>iCloud>Safari - it will merge Safari data with iCloud.
Now there seems to be an issue with this switching off automatically. It did it as I watched once. Not sure why and I did have to go back and set it again so this may not he a complete fix but I think we are closer that the previous suggestions.
I don't like that my reading list is saved on the cloud, unnecessary and not private but there you go. That is Apple for you.

Nov 6, 2014 4:31 AMby Mira alexae,this happens to me too. but i learned of a new way to do it. i saved a page in my reading list and then open it again with the internet, then i closed the internet and the app(do not close the tabs), not just closed but also removed it from the background, and then i tried opening the app again and there it is!
