Hi,

I registered on Pocketmags for my digital subscripttion so that I can print pages. However I don't seem to have any Archive on Pocketmags. Its just a blank below the Archive Icon. How do I get the archive?

The archive is on this website, sign in and click 'magazines' on the green bar above.

You may need to install a flash player to access older issues.

Thank you ,, yes, I can get the archive here. I was under the impression the archive was on Pocketmags as well.

Hi Neil

Are there any plans to migrate the archive to another format before Flash support ends or will we lose access to the older issues at the end of the year?

I would like to know that as well because not only is Flash support ending the latest versions of software don't even allow its use. Many people don't think Flash should end because 1] It is Free.2] It has features the replacements don't have.

Just because support for Flash will end doesn't mean it will stop working.

You should still be able to use Adobe Flash or third party flash players.

What won't happen are more security updates so you should only enable Flash for trusted sites in the future.

....all based on its 5-year old reputation of security issues. Those issues have been addressed to the point where it is today no worse (or better) than most other software (including the various OS).

But the damage is done, Adobe seem to have had enough and HTML5 is a less than satisfactory replacement in some instances.
