Yes, there seems to be current issue with the choice.community website as it takes a long time to load on different browsers on different operating systems/platform.
It is currently taking about 60+ seconds to load, but once loaded browsing around the community forum seems to be at normal speed.
Hopefully Choice IT gurus will investigate and resolve.
Thank you @phb.
I read your email from my old iPad, but couldn’t even “Visit Site” from iPhone. After a minute the message read: “Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding.”
Thank you Brendan.
I was thinking of a technical problem with my iPhone, because although old and dodgy my iPad has no problems getting through to Community and I think that there would be problems with both iPhone and iPad if the issue was at your end. But I’m not very IT knowledgeable…
If you have a problem with a specific site it can be good to clear out all cached data and cookies.
Theoretically you might limit that to one specific site (Choice) but I don’t think iOS lets you do that so just go to Settings / Safari / “Clear History and Website Data”.
While it is good to do as standard practice, didn’t make any difference in this case for Android or Win 10 OS. I thoughtnit may have been a corrupted cookie…but appears it may be from Choices end.
Another option is to increase the timeout settings in the browser.
In my case (PC w/Firefox) if I click on the Choice.Community it will be s.l.o.w but if I click, and then click again in a second it immediately loads. Same with the first topic I peruse, and then it seems to operate normally.
thank you @PhilT.
Wish it was just s.l.o.w… but after a minute or so the message comes on that Safari can’t open the page because the server stopped responding…
( And this Only happens with Choice Community).
It’s interesting that last night Siri got me on the website without any problem and I was able to log on again and again for about an hour. Then it was back to zero.
Thank you @grahroll.
Like a few other Apps on my phone, Safari has not got a little cross on it… How do I shut it down?
Some of the Websites I visited yesterday give instructions on how to shut down Safari, but my IPhone has not got the functions they indicate.
Also, I don’t wish to do a Reset and not be sure what is going to be erased.
Do the Keychain refresh on your Apple Mac if you have one, to do this you will need to turn Keychain off on any other Apple device you have first eg you iPhone.
To turn off and reset your iPhone Keychain (I don’t have an iPad so directions may be different)
Click “Settings”
Click your Apple ID (user name at the top)
Click “iCloud” from the list
Click “Keychain” from the list
Turn Keychain off with the slider
Do the repair of Keychain on your Mac
Turn your iPhone Keychain setting on with the slider
Try Safari after this.
As I don’t have an iPad it may allow you to do the same task as what I suggest on your Mac. This helps reset the certificates your machines trust if they have become corrupted.
Turning on the Keychain setting seemed to work for a couple of times. The site came on from Safari and from the App. Now it’s back to zero.
In any case I appreciate very much your kind help, thank you @grahroll!
It may be a corrupted Keychain still as it may be getting a corrupted entry from another Apple device you have as they share their Keychains as this is intended to sync your devices. This is why you may be getting access for a short while until the Keychain syncs again.
While trying to turn on Keychain on my IPad, Safari locked me out of all internet access.
Have a commitment now, will keep searching for a solution later.
