Many Thanks Mel.

Hi Mel,
I guess you are using Safari?
You could try resetting to clear out the history but be careful you could lose any passwords you have allowed Safari to remember.
As an interim, load up Firefox and try that. If it works then Safari is your problem and a reset should fix it.
Cheers,
Malcolm, the longest distance help you’ll get!

Hi there... i am really quite confused, my IP address has been blocked when trying to access CMBA Facebook page,,
I have already posted an enquiry as to why and have sought Admin Advice and help to no avail i know i did not renew my membership this year due some rather unpleasant treatment,however i do enjoy seeing whats going on in the group i guess the next move will be to remove this post and stop my access here to ! as this has already happened to some of my posts.

This is the explanation regarding being blocked, viewtopic.php?f=11&t=14847
It's nothing personal it's because the software doesn't like same user accessing the site using different devices. I have the same problem, I'm blocked on my I phone but ok on the laptop and tablet. "Calm down dear"

I am your problem Mel, but I can assure you you none of the admins (inc. me) have done anything to restrict your or anyone else's FB access.No reason to.
