Unable to view PDF scores from IMSLP on iPad...
on: October 05, 2017, 06:42:06 AM
Hey guys...

Just curious. Is anyone else able to view and download scores onto their iPads from IMSLP? It used to be that they had you wait 15 seconds before you could access it unless you were a member, HOWEVER - I've just gone onto my iPad to download a score and it doesn't even come up with the 15-second timer. It just gives me all the Membership options and no way to access it.

The ODD thing is however, I go straight onto my computer and view the exact same file, and it lets me access it after 15 seconds.

Anyone else having this error on their tablets???

It works on my iPad, just tried it. After the fifteen seconds is up, a line in small blue print, "Click here to continue download" appears. Could you have missed that ? It would be easy to.

Try refreshing your ipad. Sometimes Safari gets all bugged up when your cache and ram fills up and refreshing it usually does the job.


Either that or your ipad's trying to tell you something

I think it had something to do with iOS 10... I just upgraded to iOS 11 and all of it sudden, it works.
