All the sudden sweeps pop will only pop up 1 sweep at a time and all BHG captcha pop ups stopped coming up. I use chrome.. snyone know what is going on and what I need to do to fix it?
Thanks,
Terri
 
I'm glad to know it's not my computer! My BHG capcha pop-ups aren't working either. I noticed it at around 2AM when I tried to enter a Parent's magazine contest. I've reset my browser, cleared history, checked my plug ins etc. I'm using Safari, so it's not your browser. It must be yet another site wide problem with Meredith Network.
 
Sweeps Pop only opening one sweep at a time ---could be due to Google Chrome. People ended up going back to Firefox or using IE.

Some Sweeps Plus members posted about this recently and here is Admin Ken's reply which worked for them:



"Something must have changed in Chrome. Try this it worked for me. In Chrome go to settings.

chrome://chrome/settings/

click Advanced Settings

click Content Settings

Go to the Pop ups section and click Manage Exceptions

Add www.sweepstakesplus.com and www.sweepsadvantage.com to the exceptions list and click OK. May have to restart. "




About BHG captchas - sometimes that happens but I don't recall anyone posting a solution. Maybe try again hours later?
 
Here's another thread on the same topic, and same solution:

Is anyone else having problems with sweepspop since the google update last night? Now, when I try to open a page of sweeps (20 at a time), the first 2 open as tabs at the top of the page, then the rest open almost like popups with a smaller screen and no toolbar at the top of the page. I can enter them like this, but it is time consuming. I haven't been able to find a setting to correct this. Any ideas?

More on those captchas---

You are not alone! Here's another current thread. Seems like it may be fixed by now. I quoted the first and last posts, but you may want to visit the thread to read more. (Haven't entered sweeps for several days, so I can't commiserate or confirm that it's working now, but I know how annoying it is!)

Captchas on the publishers sweeps are not downloading all the way. I have not been able to enter any magazine sweeps with captchas today. Anyone else having this problem or is it *my* problem? Would appreciate even if someone can tell me they had no problems with them today.

It could have been the server they were going through - whenever I run into problems like that, I clear/reboot/reconnect, and it's *usually* resolved then :wave:
