Mag dailies problem

Options
Hi,

Today I have found it impossible to do the mag dailies, the pages wont load and it keeps saying my shockwave is crashed. Quick google and it looks like shockwave is being phased out in 'Feb 2017'.

I wonder if anyone else is having issues? im on chrome

thanks

    From a couple of months ago (I'm on 56.0.2924.87)
    However, note that Google is ending support for Flash in Chrome. It began this chore back in September 2016 with Chrome 53, and by February 2017 when Chrome 56 rolls out by default Flash will be disabled for all users. You'll need to manually enable Flash if you wish to use it.
    For those who do wish to use Flash the need to enable it every time will be a nuisance, but that is Google's plan as it encourages the use of HTML5 over Flash. Not only is Flash notorious for its security vulnerabilities, but it is today used primarily behind the scenes for things like analytics that serve only to slow down users.

    I am not sure if it's the same problem but I found when using Chrome yesterday that the videos still played even though I had Flash disabled. I switched to Microsoft Edge and they all went through fine without playing so I will probably stick to that until the next problem crops up!

    I use the Mobile user agent extension in chrome. I just click on the icon at the top right of my screen (to turn it on) before starting the mags, and the videos never even show. Then once I have finshed the mags, I click back on the icon to turn back it off. Here is a link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mobile-user-agent/lmpnjgaclbllogbofbompgpegbbekbcc?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog

    Since adding the extension I have sailed through the mags without any problems at all!
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    That used to work for me, for a good few months. Then one day it just stopped working, and the videos started playing again. So I looked for other tips and found the one about disabling Flash, which has worked like a charm till yesterday on Chrome but now doesn't! I don't know whether Flash is enabled or not in Edge but the videos skipped anyway so it'll do for me.
