+luckycharmer Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 It sometimes does the same for me but I'm still on dial-up and it's when the page hasn't completely loaded. Quote Link to comment

Thankyou If you're using Internet Explorer as your browser, make sure you're not using Compatibility Mode. That setting will cause this and other symptoms (including not showing cache logs) on the Geocaching Web site. --Larry Quote Link to comment

Go to the HELP menu in your browser and change the compatibility. Quote Link to comment
+myross Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 Thankyou so much for your help, I have switched off my compatability and got my decrypt and maps back !!!!!! Kind regards to all x :D Quote Link to comment
+Drunkin Monkeys Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I think this might also be tieing in with the Phasing out older browsers issue that some people are having.....when I was receiving that message I couldn't decrypt or see any logs.....I e-mailed Groundspeak and when they replied telling me to turn off compatability mode the message went away and I could decrypt and see logs.....I was not in compatability mode....so I'm thinking there is a glitch somewhere......

+kunarion Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) Can you tell me how you turned compatability mode off? One simple way is to click the "torn page" icon. Blue means it's on Compatibility Mode. Keep your mouse cursor over that, because around here you need Compatibility Mode off for other features.

7rxc Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I ran into this today about 11 am local (MDT). I don't know how much earlier I would have encountered it though. Went and checked several unrelated caches of different ages and all that had encrypted hints did not work. However a short while after that 1130 it started working fine again. I do know it was working yesterday. As I said I don't know when it stopped. I did see a pop up box that said "ReferenceError: convertROTStringWithBrackets is not defined" each time it occured. I'm using Chrome on Vista Basic on a Dell 1525 (which is enough to cause problems sometimes by itself). Like I said, it cleared up spontaneously, and had no indication of any compatability status, but then I wasn't looking at that. Doug 7rxc Quote Link to comment
+GoMRT Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I actually put mine into compatibility mode and it helped me edit my trackable page. Quote Link to comment
