Why does my iPhone 4 now only show DU in the Mobile mode, and I cannot log on? FIXED!!!

Been working fine for years and this morning while canvassing, (perusing DU is a great way to while away the time after you ring the bell), I opened the page and it went mobile mode and is asking me for password, etc.

Of course it gives a cookies error message when I try to log on.

Does anyone know what happened?

My DU settings for mobile devices is still Classic.



***UPDATE***

Went to settings: Safari: Enable cookies.

Still don't know why it independently decided not to have me logged on, tho....

Can you read DU in regular mode on an iPhone???? Stinky The Clown Aug 2012 #2
Yes, I've got very good vision for detail, distance sucks. NYC_SKP Aug 2012 #3
I prefer the classic mode too. When my star went away last week, so did that. onehandle Aug 2012 #4
I am SO relieved that Skinner allows flex donations like before. NYC_SKP Aug 2012 #5
Yeah. Hopefully, they will set up a way to 'gift' stars. nt onehandle Aug 2012 #6

You have better eyes than I do!

It's OK on my iPads, but it seems the iPhone would be too small . . . . or force lots of scrolling, no?

I hate the sites that default to mobile view. It seems like "Idiot view" for me.

I do indeed have to pan and scroll a lot but I'm just so used to the format of the standard view that I stay with that.

I think I'm just old and stuck in my ways!

Interesting thing to tie to a star membership.

After Skinner's announcement the other day, I re-upped.

Classic mode is back on my iPhone 4.
