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.

Backup Your Blog

The HTTRACK program seems to work, though I'm not sure if it's a full backup. I was told that's what it does and I'll believe it until I have reason to doubt their veracity!

How to Backup Your Blog

The advent of Beta has raised some question about the efficacy (or at least the speed and size) of the HTTRACK backups. See The Real Blogger Status--Beta for details.

I tried it once (on the Beta) and it did seem to glitch and at first I thought it did not complete all the posts, but later I saw I was wrong. So it is problematic at present, but it seemed to work. (01/06/07).

[Warning! It did take about 3 hrs. to backup my 1000 posts!]
