A message to all C4OA members regarding the use of Google's browser ( Chrome ) when up/down loading photos to Photo Bucket.
Recently, I changed my email platform from Outlook to GMAIL (Google's free email system). I have since discovered many problems with GMAIL such as downloading, viewing, and printing of attachments....especially photos.
Last week I tried to post some photos on the C4OA web site using Photo Bucket. A simple procedure right? But the images simply would not transfer from my computer to Photo Bucket.
I emailed Photo Bucket customer service and learned that
Photo Bucket does not support the GMAIL browser which is called "Chrome". . The problem, then, was that by changing my email system to GMAIL, my computer defaulted to GMAIL's browser, Chrome. Mystery solved!
Photo Bucket support suggests using Explorer, Safari and a few others...but not Google's browser, "Chrome". I have copied their message below.
