IDP Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 I would say there are two different problems here and the one Wim highlighted isn't the same as the one I originally mentioned. On the iPad (and possibly elsewhere), there's clearly an issue with dynamic indexing - changing from search to search and differing by browser. The example Wim gave is down to the fact that Alamy have somehow managed to duplicate their reference numbers! For instance, do a search for "CMMJDD" and you'll see 2 shots - of totally different subjects by different contributors. Looking at a couple of samples, it would appear that the duplicates are one RF image and one RM. Whatever it is, there's clearly something wrong and Alamy do appear to be burying their heads in the sand about it. Ian D Ian, You're probably right, but what if there is an underlying problem? Not sure about the sand. More likely a tech department buried in problems and unwanted side effects. wim I'm sure there is an underlying problem, Wim - I was simply saying the the two issues aren't directly related. My comment regarding Alamy burying their heads in the sand refers to the responses I've had from MS, who say they've investigated the issue and it's down to browser compatibility - which it clearly isn't.

IDP Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 I've changed the title of this post, as it seems to have wider implications than just for iPad users. Ian D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Hi All, I am using Mavericks latest and searched my two pseudos for my images. One came up with 19 images which have nothing to do with me and I have more than that in the pseudo. The other pseudo came up with "Sorry no images." HUH! Then I remembered when searching for my pseudos I should be using "Advanced search" DOHH! When I did, sure enough, everything was fine.

Jill Morgan Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 All the wrong pics seem to be of a celebrity shoot of the Premiere of "Brave". Nope, just found one that wasn't, but most seem to be. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I've had that screwy behavior ever since getting my iPad Air 4 months ago. I figured the behavior was unique to the iPad. There is someone else's thumbnail showing a wooden sign that says "sage" when you click on my images under my name, here. Yet if I click on that image, I get one of my St. Croix images.
