As a fully paid up member of MEW and ME for both print and digital, I can no longer acces back issue. When I log on and click on the tool bar for 'Magazine' all the covers of back issues are shown. When I click on these a message appear 'ERROR sorry we cannot process you request bod refferer' Can any body help. I am looking fo an article Nov 2018. Pocket mags dont go back this far.

Help Peter Hodkinson

Bad referrer comes up as a problem every so often and seems to be related to the users specific machine/operating system/ browser etc. If you use the search on the home page there are several threads with possible fixes. It is a mag that has been updated so you should be able to read without the flash problem.

Try this thread for starters

Thanks Moderator -got a fix. Had to install Google Chrome instead of my favourite DuckDuck Go browser.

All is well I needed access to MEW Nov18 to follow the 3D mod of Alibre.

Many Thanks I have been trying for weeks phoning the publishers who seem to think Pocket mags is the answer. They only go back 6 month(ish)

Pocket mags tends to only go back as far as when your subscription started.

If you have not found it yet there is a long thread which ran while the series was being published.

Hi Peter

I've just sent you a private message

The conversion process still seems to be happening far too slowly. I raised this subject back in August when I couldn't view back issues beyond No 220; it is now No180. If a facility has been paid for by readers, then some urgency should be put into making it available. Not that it should even be happening retrospectively. Neil responded at the time that he would look into it but nothing forthcoming since.

My subscription is up for renewal soon. Do I really want to pay for something I can't access?

Alan, you must have missed this, see Neil's post bottom of this thread from about a month ago

Bought access to Digital MEW around a week ago, set up the account and waited for the confirmation email with the link to finalise the account, closed the browser after an hours wait.

Tried again today with the same result, there seems to be some gremlin in the emailing system, yes I did check in the Junk mail.

From earlier posts seems I'm not alone.

At the rate of conversion since August, someone needs to wave a magic wand to 'get it done' (Sorry Boris.) by the end of the year.

I can only pass on what I've been told.

If it isn't completed by early in the new year I will nag again. They are processing several titles and MEW may not be first in the queue.
