My Home not working for me?

[Quebecguy]

I've been enjoying TractorbyNet for a few years now, reading the messages and posting the occasional reply, but I am not able to access the page to change my settings. When I press the "My Home" button nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

My only thought - for whatever reason, you might not be totally/correctly logged in. As you scroll across the top of the page from Homepage to My Profile - do all the icons darken. Does My Home darken when you put your cursor on it. JMHO

Yes, all the icons darken except the "My Profile" one.

What happens when you 'click' on your own name on this thread? (the one in blue with the green dot beside it)

That should take you to "view profile" => "your activity" => "about me" where you can edit anything that has a 'pencil' icon beside it.

Thank you for taking the time to respond. When I click on my name, then click "View Profile", then click "About Me" I can edit everything that has the pencil icon. So that seems to work properly but still nothing when I click "My Home". I'll try accessing the site from a different browser and see what happens.

I should have tried another browser before bothering you guys because "My Home" and everything else works as it should when I use Chrome instead of Internet Explorer 11. What made me think of trying another browser was the fact that for years I couldn't get the Canadian Tire web site to work properly so I phoned up their technical support a few months ago and they suggested trying another browser. Again, everything worked well using Chrome. I don't understand what is going on as both my laptop and my desk top have the same problems and they have different versions of Windows 7 installed. Oh well, another one of life's mysteries. Thank you Oosik and Wagtail for replying.

Yes, Quebecguy - another one of the great mysteries of life. I have three browsers here on my Apple. Safari, Opera & FireFox. It's just exactly to counteract what you have experienced. Some browsers work better on certain sites - some simply don't work at all on some sites. AND - I will occasionally drop one browser, for a while, and add another.

I've found that having multiple browsers is a great benefit. I can be doing something on one - need added info - open a second browser - find the info and use it to complete whatever on the first browser/site.

Glad you were able to get everything back working. Don't fret the small things - there are plenty of fish(browsers) out there to choose from.
