EMERGENCY STEPS

Kick-starting The Blog
1. Refresh (F5) or Ctrl-F5
2. Clear cache (delete temporary Internet files) and cookies in Tools-Internet Options.
3. Add a question mark to the end of your blog's internet address in the address box and see if it will show the latest update. (Can also be done with other people's url's in the address window.)
4. Republish (if in classic Blogger)
5. Reboot
6. Log out and log back in again (may change to an untroubled server)
7. Change browser (IE, Firefox, others)

---Not necessary to do all of these at once!---

Blogger may make problems for some computers about accepting cookies, especially when you are using the new versions of Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers. Difficulties with accepting scripts may be caused by security systems, antivirus programs, firewalls, and some add-ons. Check all your settings.

You may need to change your browser settings, or to list www.blogger.com and blogger.com as "trusted sites" in your Internet Options-Security so that scripting can occur.

Compose Mode Or Edit Html Mode?

Does your Blogger editing screen look "odd" or wrong?

Is it possible that your screen mode toggled from one to another, either Edit Html or Compose modes? That sometimes happens and people who have never selected the OTHER mode can't recognize what they're seeing. If so, the Blogger edit box has the two choices beside each other in the upper right corner (see screen shot below).

In Compose you can see the photos. You can relocate the image by dragging and dropping it.

In Edit Html you will see the code for the photos and will have to use Preview (or switch to the Compose mode) to see images. You can move it by using Cut and Paste on the code.




Is your "Compose Mode" turned on?
1. First go to Dashboard
2. Go to Manage: Settings.
3. Scroll down the page
4. look for "Show Compose Mode for all your blogs?"
5. Activate it by answering Yes.

Be sure to click on the big orange Save Settings a little bit further toward the bottom of the page.

  5. We all start out as idiots, really. Look at babies and yet how smart they are at 3 or so (able to pick any lock, open any door!).
