I am - and I haven't been able to log on to Photobucket for months now. :( As you all know, Imagestation had closed down, so there aren't that many options for people on a Mac I guess.

In october, I changed my ISP, but as far as I remember, the problems started before that.

When I disable Java Script, I can get on the site, but still not upload or view other people's images or video's.

I wonder if it could have anything to do with Proxies? I don't really know much about this, so if anyone have suggestions, I'd be glad to hear them. :)

I am using Safari, and am on a Mac, just joined Photobucket to test it for you, and it works fine ....

I am using Safari, as well.
I messed around on Photobucket this morning and had no problems with logging in.

Firefox by Mozilla is more secure, faster, and smaller than Safari. I use it on all my computers, and i love it. You can add extentions to it, and best of all its free :) (Computer geek talking lol). Check it out at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

I've been using Mozilla's Firefox for about 2 years. I used Safari prior to that, but I like the options and the speed on Firefox better. I also use Mozilla's Adium program to access all my messenger programs as well.

Yea i love firefox cause it loads soo fast. And its secure, but you dont really have to worry about security in linux aside from hackers.

You might want to get a portrait of what is going on inside your computer. If it a PC, go to www.everest.com

For a really DETAILED pic of the cyber-innards, try www.belarc.com

If you have a Mac - I think you could try those programs - but otherwise, go to Applications in the Utilities folder.

(Thanks to all PTrs who gave me the above info...see? I was listening! ;) )

I'm a Mac lover/user, with both Safari and Firefox. Never have had any problems with Photobucket and Safari.

Hopefully you can get it straightened out without too much trouble.

In the office the kids all prefer Firefox on Mac to Safari- don't know why- but they do it ;)

I use Safari and Photobucket, and the only time I've had an issue was with trying to put a slideshow on my blog. It wouldn't let me give it a title in Safari, so I had to redo the whole thing in Firefox. Other than that, I haven't had any issues.

Thanks for our inputs. :) I'm begining to think it's something other than Safari - or perhaps I need to update it. I have version 1.3.2 on my Mac and I know there's a newer version out there.

Karen, do you have Plug-inns, Java and Java Script enabled?

Funny thing is, I could not view Africam last year - now I can!


- but otherwise, go to Applications in the Utilities folder.
LOL! I'm sure you meant the other way around. ;) Well, I run Disk Utility now and again, and recently I ran Disk Warrior.

It could perhaps have something to do with my new ISP, but then, I changed in October. Hmm!

I have Safari 2.0.4 on mine. I know there is a newer version than the one I have - but my OS is 10.4.9, and I don't plan to go higher until the bugs are worked out of Leopard.
