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 or reload the browser (IE, Firefox, others)
8. Try a different computer, or see if you can duplicate the problem or avoid it in a post in another blog (make a test blog, whether in the same account or a second account, that's not public so nobody will see you screwing around!)

---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.

Clear Cache

Refresh/ Clear Cache/ Restart/ Delete Temporary Files/

You may need to clear your cache (delete temporary files and cookies), or Refresh, or restart your computer. Try the Refresh button (F5 or the double-arrow icon up above) or Ctrl-F5 first, then consider the cache. Sometimes our computer will hold an old memory of our blog and won't spit it out! See if you can shake it loose.

The preceding may work wonders (sometimes) for links or icons that have disappeared from your screen.

Of course, your trouble may just be a Blogger Quirk due to your server being disrupted or worked on. You have my pity, but that's not worth much.

For those of you unaquainted with the cache or the "Temporary Internet Files", go to the Tools tab up above and click it. At the bottom of that revealed menu will be "Internet Options". On that menu you will find where to click to Delete Cookies or Delete Temporary Internet files (which is the cache). I know, it's double lingo for the same stuff!

It never hurts to restart your browser or even to change your browser (temporarily) just to see if it is easier with the particular problem that you have.


For more information on how and why to clear your cache, see:

Windows IE Clear Cache

and

CLEAR CACHE IN FIREFOX AND OTHER BROWSERS.
