You have pull. I haven't been so lucky. I've been logged out even with reloadevery -- reload failed. I'm now reloading my profile.

IF I have pull, I sure would like to use it on other stuff. No pull just a regimen that works 100% of the time


Try this, works 100% of the time, IF you follow this EXACT WorkFlow... (the numbered list assume receiving an email notice)


  1. Go to your forum of choice Main Page (this will become your 'Base Camp' page)
  2. click Login, which takes you to the Login page
  3. Browser Bookmark that Login Page
  4. click [Sign In]
    1. you are now logged in and have started a 'timer' in a set cookie
    2. you will be logged off without notice after ±30 minutes of inactivity
    3. clicking a Link that is NOT a JavaScript link resets the timer in the cookie
    4. I use a browser add-on that reloads the Base Camp page every 20 minutes = NEVER logged off by the timer
      - DO NOT close the TAB, the AutoReloader is tied to the TAB not the page itself
      1. Safari - SafariTabReloader
      2. Firefox - ReloadEvery: "Reload web pages automatically"
  5. Switch to your email client or WebMail page**
  6. Click the link to Reply
  7. AutoSwitches to browser, thread page & post to which you are replying = Login State = TRUE
  8. If you use an AutoReloader, all you need do the rest of your browser session is repeat #5 & #6


Vary from this WorkFlow by clicking reply in the email FIRST and all bets are off... you will experience login failed on that page but logged in on another... 100% of the time with that particular email notice - I have not found the workaround or cause

** OR CMD+click a link on BaseCamp page to open in a new TAB



https://discussions.apple.com/profile/rccharles?view=discussions = VERY empty below the TAB bar and above the footer

https://discussions.apple.com/profile/rccharles = normal Bio page

https://discussions.apple.com/profile/ChitlinsCC?view=discussions = VERY empty below the TAB bar and above the footer


where did you come up with the " ?view=discussions " in the URL? I have never seen this advised... certainly not the plain ol' " /content " addition nor is it tt2's Magic Twangers. Are you trying to force something to happen that never will? It is a wonder you don't get a 404.Not Found error!!

OK about the link

RE: the rest... we're beating a dead horse - I agree in principle, if not in details. Fact remains that however it got this way, the efforts by one or the other or both in collaboration is causing more problems as they go forward with fixing existing ones. If they would go by Apple dogma, they would re-install a Clean OS (SiteWare - unaltered by human hands) from original disks. = not gonna happen. Too much time, effort and pride involved in the bodywork and paint job to worry about the fact that the car still won't start much less drive to the supermarket.

What is this all about = view=discussions


Looks like a very outdated filtering parameter. This would be the correct URL for that view:

https://discussions.apple.com/profile/rccharles/content?filterID=following~object type~objecttype%5Bthread%5D


Filtering parameters that cannot be parsed can either be ignored or used to raise an error. In this case it would seem they are ignored.
