I am logged in for the first time right now but for some reason I cannot view the pages.  It is probably me having a senior moment but what am I doing wrong?..... or not doing?  I am attempting to view an article in the Leeds Mercury but I seem to be in a loop - when I press view article or page, or browse issue it just takes me back to the results page ie. no facimile.  Apols for being thick !!

Hi

I don't know.  I usually just click on a section - eg 19C British newspapers, fill in a term, press search and click on the facsimile of an article - I haven't triedmevery section though.

Good luck.

I think the initial problem was that I wasn't logged in properly as I have now just received an email with login and password details.  However when I try to use these I am told they are incorrect!  The url they have given in their email for 'questions about this trial' leads no-where and is inactive.

I am getting frustrated  :(

Hi

I've had mine working ages, but I'm having the same problem as both of you using the link from their emails, tonight.

However, I've been going in from the link on the first message in this thread and using the details they gave me - I just checked again now.

That's been okay, though I got the odd strange mesage on the way.  It might work if either of you got as far as bookmarking it/putting it in favourites, but my isp's favourites hardly ever work.

You could try going to that first message abd doing the same.

Not what they said, but if it works for free like that while they sort out their prototype I'll not complain.

Good luck!
