Problems accessing the issue? Follow these troubleshooting steps ...

Important Note:
All modern HTML5 compliant browsers automatically save the PDF to your device when you click the link. However, in the case of Internet Explorer (PC) or older versions of Safari (Mac), you need to do the following to get the PDF to download instead of display in the browser.

INTERNET EXPLORER USERS (PC): Please right click and select "Save target as"  to save the PDF directly to your device instead of opening it in your browser. 
SAFARI USERS (Mac): Please hold down the OPTION key when clicking to force Safari to download the PDF instead of display it in the browser. However, as of Safari 10.1 (released Mar 26, 2017), Safari DOES support the download attribute via a direct click.

Downloading current issue

What browser do you recommend to download the issues of the magazine? I have been trying Windows Edge and Explorer 11 but your server just sits there wqaiting and waiting. Sometimes it takes over 15 minutes before the server finally responds. I am running a Win 10, 64 bit machine with FiberOptic internet commercial connection.

If nothing we suggest you try works, then go ahead and report the problem, but make sure you provide the following details:

  1. What kind of device (PC, Mac, tablet model, phone model)
  2. What system and version (Windows 7, Mac OS 10.7, Android 4.1.1, IOS 7.1, etc.)
  3. What browser and version (Internet Explorer 10, Firefox 25, Chrome 31, Safari 6.04, etc.)
  4. Describe the problem with more detail than "it doesn't work" or "it's slow". For example, say, "I click the start reading button and I just get a blank screen." or "I try to download the issue and it just spins, the issue never comes up."
  5. Tell us what version of the magazine you are trying to access - standard edition, embedded edition, portrait, landscape - we could have a problem that's isolated to just one version.
  6. Also tell us where you're located. Things may be slower in South Africa than in Denver Colorado, for example.
