It says March 1st and today is March 2nd.

12:58 am

flosey

12:58 am

flosey

I have it as March 2nd

12:58 am

aebmusica

Just did that and it stills says March 1st.

12:59 am

flosey

strange! have never had that happen

12:59 am

flosey

did you go right out of Babble?

1:00 am

aebmusica

Yes I did.

1:01 am

Lizlin

Sometimes you have to clear out the cookies. If you're on a mac I can help.

1:01 am

flosey

very strange!

1:01 am

rururocks

<---i'll help with cookies

1:02 am

aebmusica

how does one do that on an Apple/

1:02 am

Lizlin

choc chip suit you, Ru?

1:02 am

Lizlin

Just checking

1:02 am

aebmusica

I like choc chip!

1:04 am

Lizlin

Go to Safari. Click preferences. Privacy. Remove all website data. Try that. You might have to reenter passwords though.

1:05 am

Lizlin

That's all on the top green bar

1:06 am

aebmusica

Then do I have to rejoin all my 96 websites?

1:06 am

Lizlin

Not sure!

1:06 am

ARB

Shut your computer and start up again before you get rid of all the cookies.

1:06 am

Lizlin

Hubby just checking.

1:07 am

Lizlin

Sounds like good advice.

1:07 am

Kamanjah

Where does it say March 1? It's still March 1 where I am, but I don't have any green bar, so that's probably your browser

1:08 am

Lizlin

Hi Kam. Are you using a Mac?

1:08 am

Lizlin

Lickety say 2 March - it's 2 March in the afternoon here in Aus.

1:08 am

ARB

Are you playing Babble through a browser or from Lickety's program which sits on the desktop?

1:08 am

Kamanjah

No, a pc. If ARB is on a Mac, I missed that one, was just looking over my screen to see if I saw anything odd

1:08 am

Kamanjah

I'm using Firefox

1:09 am

Lizlin

OK - go back to safari - preference - privacy. Find where it says detail. Click on details. It shows the cookies. Remove all then it doesn't affect the rest of the website data.

1:10 am

Lizlin

I'm on a Mac and if Aeb is on a Mac, this should work.

1:10 am

ARB

I am on a PC. I am a retired computer professional and I am telling aeb to shut down her computer and reboot it before doing anything else.

1:10 am

Lizlin

Hope it works - got to go. BBL

1:10 am

rururocks

1:10 am

Lizlin

I said that was good advice, ARB.
