Question

I can't login on safari/mac. sign in keeps saying:
The Windows Live Network is unavailable from this site for one of the following reasons: This site may be experiencing a problem The site may not be a member of the Windows Live Network You can: You can sign in or sign up at other sites on the Windows Live Network, or try again later at this site
FF3.6.28/Mac (as previosuly reported) can post, can't reply. Even when posting though, the cursor stays frozen at the beginning of the text being typed in until there is a delay of about 2.5 seconds. THis does not affect typing, but it looks really strange.

It a desktop. OS X 10.7.3
If i choose "Reset Safari..." from the Safari menu i can login again, for one thread. Then it does the login loop again.
When i was trying the "Keep me signed in" checkbox, it prevented me from log gin in.
When i tried posting before, i got a strange error. "http://social.msdn.microsoft.com" with an [OK] button. I'd post a screenshot, but that doesn' t seem to load either. It seems to be quite moody.- Edited by Brian Tkatch Friday, April 20, 2012 12:20 PM

Need to see if this is forums specifically or just the log in. Can you try signing in and out of these: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/ and http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/profile/ ? Are you at all able to reproduce the problem for these urls?
I'd like to narrow it down a bit, this would help us.

Was able to sign in this morning. This is a test reply. I will browse away, then back for a possible second reply.

Let's build this out better, Brian. We need to be very specific for the test team to repro this.
What's the issue?
FF 3.6.28 on OSX - What are the issues? Please be very specific. You seem to be replying with it now.
Safari/Mac on OSX - You can't log in?

I believe the FF issue has been resolved on both Windows and the Mac.
The Safari/Mac issue is a logout issue.
1. Open Safari.
2. Safari->Reset Safari…
3. [Reset] (everything checked).
4. Go to forums.microsoft.com
5. Click Sign in link in upper-right corner.
6. Username/password, click [OK]
7. Click [Send] on security warning.
8. Click MSDN Forums from forum list
9. Click a forum from list: MSDN Sandox
10. Click [Ask a Question]
11. Type in title [test] and subject [testtest]. click [Submit]
12. Click My Forums
13 Click a forum from list: MSDN Sandox
14. Click [Ask a Question]
15. I got the login error here.
This seems to be a timing issue, as if i wait in between steps. the error happens earlier.- Edited by Brian Tkatch Tuesday, May 29, 2012 3:54 AM
