Is it me or this site?

Thanks Allan. I am on an Apple Mac as well. But that does not help cause I dont know how to download that Fire fox. I will play with it a bit more and see how I go. I am not really a wiz on these computers and this new Mac has really baffled me. There is so many thinks this doesn't do that my windows PC did. I will have another go. But thanks for your help.

Karen, Aha, Apple Mac .... I was right (for once!)

In Google, type "firefox download", in the Results open www.mozilla.com/firefox/ (should be the first Result) then click on "Firefox 3 Free Download" and follow the instructions.

After firefox downloads, drag it into your Dock, then open it and go to ExploreOz.
In the shop you should see the Checkout button.

Don't worry, you will get familiar with your Mac and you will come to love it.

WWWWWoooooooooHHHHHHoooooooooo IT WORKED. I restarted the computer Allan after I downlaoded that fire fox and it was there. Thanks heaps for your help. Now you all have to put up with me on here..........ha ha. Thanks again.

That's great Karen,

I still use Safari for general use as I prefer all things "Apple", but will switch to the Firefox browser as needed.

And we look forward to "putting up with you"!

Thanks Doug, but I guess my computer does not want us to join Exploroz. I still cannot find the checkout button and I have been at this for over 2 hours now. I think I will just leave it and not become a member. But thanks anyway, I will go and put my credit card back now............lol.

So Doug can you change your members name or not. I dont want it to be Geoff and Karen?

Wow, I worked that out to Doug...lol
Thanks

Easy Karen,
Click on the little House logo at the top of the page, in your "My Home" page click on "Edit Profile", in the "Screen Name" box type your desired name then click on "Update" lower down. .... all done!

After you click the BUY button the checkout button will appear on the panel on right side

Doug, You really need to read posts more carefully. Are you deaf? lol

Karen and I were both clearly saying that the CHECKOUT button simply does not appear after selecting and BUYING items.

The problem is with the Apple Safari browser but can be overcome by using the Firefox browser as I and Karen have found and posted.

But thank you for your efforts even if confusing!

Allan
Damn....i must be deaf because I'm buggered if I heard anything except your loud...."get up 'im" besides it's not a post about Garmin so I should have kept quiet ...SORRY everyone for buttin' in.

,.

itsorright Doug, no harm done. Got a few losses meself! lol.

Actually, I've been following your Garmin comments with interest as I'm damned if I want to lug a laptop around.

Pesty Pesty Pesty. Let me become a member before you start hanging crap on me about being dumb. lol. Been a while since we were members. Thought we had better do the right thing. Karen.

So Pesty, does that mean you just brought me a membership? I knew I liked you for a reason. Thanks.

David,

Been waiting for Karen to respond but getting itchy to add my "two bob's worth."

In Safari, when you click on "ADD TO CART" there is a "reaction" in the Shopping Cart Panel and the page refreshes but nothing is added to the Cart and the "CHECKOUT" button does not appear.

In Firefox, when you click on "ADD TO CART" the page refreshes, the selected item is added to the cart, and the "CLEAR CART", "UPDATE CART", and "CHECKOUT" buttons appear. The rest of the transaction process then proceeds OK.

I made sure the Cookies were enabled in Safari and in fact saw the ExplorOz cookie in Safari's cookie list. It seems to be a problem between Apple Safari and ExplorOz.

Regards,

Allan,

Does your auto logon function work in your version of Safari? It writes the cookie in th esame way as the shop does so wondering if it is the cookie or whether your system just does not get the the URL - Also please try this test URL - It should add something to th ecart and take you to the shop home page - this will tell me if you are getting to the add to cart page or not -

Shop Test (with Debug turned on)

When you run this you will go back to the shop with page debugging turned on so the returned page will look strange - can you copy and paste the text at the top of the screen into an email and send it to me david@exploroz.com and also see if the cart which may be showing in a weird spot (due to debugging) has the item in it?

Thanks
David

David, sorry, I had a "Watch" on the Post and responded to the email.
I'll copy the response here:


Yes, Auto log-on works fine and always has.

No "weird spot" in the cart and no item showing.

Hi David. With the help of Allan, we are now a member. I think it is Mac that had the problem. I downloaded Fire Fox as Allan said to do and then my checkout button was there. I tried for over 2 hours and finally got on the forum, and Allan give me instructions to fix it. But thanks for replying anyway, it was me after all.
Karen.

Karen,

It is not you - it is a Safari problem on MACs (not all Safari either just some).

Allan,
Thanks for the information can you do me another favor - Can you clear your cookies and try the test again? If you do not want to clear all cookies please clear everything in the cookies folder that has exploroz in it there should be several. I have added some more information to the debugger also so please copy and paste again.
David
