Thanks Eric and beachkitten, but for the life of me, I can not figure this out as much as I want too! I know that y’all have spent many trieless hours on this, but it has me stumped! (We have gone to the testing site, and also read all the treads related to posting pics) Now with that being said, we have been long time apple folks. We went away from the windows platform many, many years ago due to the fact of the simplicity of Apple. I have gone into this site numerous times and have determined it is STILL based on a Microsoft program. Now not complaining, REALLY, we LOVE the new site! But with Apple software that has been available for MANY years for FREE, like grab and drop, move and side, which has been OLD SCHOOL for some time now. I guess with the new up grade we thought these tools would be available at this point. Apple does not have a RIGHT click on an iPad. We use our iPad to control all headless computers (Mac mini’s) in the house and office, for years, seamlessly! Also as beachkitten has mentioned before, Apple embeds the info in the picture, unlike Microsoft, which applies a JPG to every picture. Back to my statement, Apple has simplicity built into the programming. SO PLEASE! ERIC OR BEACHKITTEN! PLEASE HELP!! Now I know we’re (me and my wife) are not in the same boat by our selfs. And to everyone else, PLEASE don’t beat us up for the run on sentences. Just my bad grammar coming out in my frustration trying to figure this out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The drag and drop a photo from the upload menu is part of the software, so you should be able to do that. Maybe I am not understanding what you mean? Here are 4 easy ways to do the right click from you Mac product: How to Right Click on a MacI think you misunderstand what we are talking about with regard to the iPhone and some other phones. It is about the extra coding that the phone puts into the photo (they are still jpeg), that extra coding is really for the phone to display the photo on the phone regardless of what way you have it turned (even upside down). Great for the phone, but not so great when it uploads the photo, depending on the way you held the phone when taking the photo -- then at times if flips the photo sideways when it is uploaded.

BTW, this is not an apple vs windows thing at all. The code is generic for all operating systems. Each has their own "things" good and bad. Makes no difference to the software at all. It does not know if you are on windows or mac one way or the other. Yes, many of our hints are for windows..... just because that is the way it is... neither good or bad. The software does not know the difference one way or the other. The software is written in PHP, a generic web software.... It is hosted with linux and apache, again generic, and does not care what system you are using.... There is no difference on our end what ever you use. The difference is your browser and operating system, that is all. We tested with both apple and microsoft products, and all worked as expected with the exception of the iphone. So there should not be any issues whatsoever between mac or windows systems, just the way to do it between the two.. Not making excuses, just say what it is, is all. So, regardless of the operating system, if you have problems.................. we are here to help! Have a question.. ask, I think between all of the members here we can come up with a fix one way or the other! We/all of us here to help each other, there is no question about that.. ask the question and we will try to come up with the answer.

Sorry Eric, I didn’t mean this subject to come across like that, and for that I apologize. I know y’all have spent a lot of time on this new site. So, I guess my question is this. When I go to the site for photo testing, I use attachment manager, I see the photos loaded up at the bottom, I hit done next, then preview and at this point I don’t see my photos. Now keep in mind all this being done on an iPad using safari. Maybe that’s my problem? So if you could help, that would be very much appreciated sir! Maybe I should be using Firefox as my web browser, just a thought. Once again, I dint mean for it to sound like us against them, just really looking for some help on photos. Thanks again
