Howdy,

Sorry for the trouble. I've got some questions to help us narrow this down:

Do websites like youtube.com load for you? (I'm wondering if flash is installed)

Do you have a pop up blocker preventing cpaptalk from opening a new window or tab? (if so, that would explain the lack of login screen)

What operating system (windows 98, windows xp, windows vista, mac leopard, ubuntu, etc) do you have?

What web browser (firefox, internet explorer 6, internet explorer 7, safari) are you using?

Thanks,
Johnny

I'm on vista wiht firefox and everything worked this morning except for those annoying bleeps in chat. Everything thing else works, just no log in box. It shows that it is loading settings, loading main chat window, and starting chat system. Then no little box pops up. I do allow popups. Youtube works fine. Just checked and no login window on IE either.

I am on another forum with the old version of chat installed - was in that chat right after this one was installed - no problems - all of the chat problems have been since version 5 flash chat was put on -

we did a survey in chat last night - FF vs IE - no conclusion - XP vs Vista - no conclusion either


ah - TD - well you know gumby - maybe he was there - maybe he wasn't - but if we said he was, he probably was, but also beware I was in there last night as gumby and he was in there last night as 101010110 or close to that --- think that was before you came in

I came in last night first at b jules h and didn't see gumby - I came in as KDS using another browser and also did not see gumby - but I have gumby on yahoo so he was there --------

Jules - you and Gumby need to get a life. You two and your chronies make chat suck. You really need to find a hobby or something and quit controlling chat. From reading your old posts it is obvious you are a nut case and Gumby is just an asshole. You two dummies should get married. I wish all those who agree would post but I know they don't want to be found out and attacked just like I don't. Get a life bitch.

When I had my pointer hovering over the chat link...it didn't show Gumby in chat...and I didn't see Gumby when I went in there...

Speaking of "MouseOver" to see who is in chat. I am surprised no one has complained about that yet. It's kinda like trying to text while you are driving. Plus when there are more than 10 (I think) people in chat the over 10 are truncated and you can't see anyway.

I think the old way of just scrolling the names was much better.

Using the same computer as always (never failed before)... I'm getting the login screen after few seconds (longer than usual) and the message "Socket Server Connection Failed"...
maybe the announced maintenance is in place at this moment?.....

Weird.... no changes here... and clicked couple times again and Voila... connected again.... gremlins are having fun

Oh sure, mess with the CPAP user that hasn't slept with his CPAP in a week....

TD,

We just did a few permutations of chat names last night while testing things out - miko used one briefly last night I had used.

I think by the time you were in there last night, we were all back to normal names.

And for anyone wanting info, I am XP media edition, FF 3 normally in chat, but IE 6 for KDS and didn't see the real gumby with that name either.

Unable to get in chat all day. Mac OS X 10.3.9. I keep getting "socket server connection failed."

[birdshell]

I keep getting "socket server connection failed."

Ditto for Windows XP.
I clicked on the chat link and the sign in box came up after about 30 seconds with "socket server connection failed" at the top of it.

I tried to log in to the chat (it accepted my user name and allowed me to enter it) and the sign in box came up after about 30 seconds with "socket server connection failed" at the top of it. Trying multiple times merely put me into a loop of getting the sign in box with "socket server connection failed".

I CAN get videos from YouTube without any problem playing them.

I DID as mikosiko suggested and deleted my flash cookies.

I DO have Active X Control, which I turned off to check. It did not make a difference, although I didn't have cpaptalk.com disallowed anyway. That could be a mute point.

I DID delete cpaptalk.com cookies.

I have done all I could think to do. I saw Trinh Vu's name in chat (sometimes in different versions) throughout the day, so he must have been doing something. At one point, I did try to log in, and successfully did so...even "birdshell" was listed as "birdshell"!

So, I am rather certain that a bit of patience will have us back in business.

Thank you for all the time spent fixing this for us.

Karen,
