ME Digital Access

Thank you for the new Pocketmags access to ME - this is what many on here have been requesting for some time, so well done!

May we assume a similar service for MEW to follow?

Rgds,

John

Previously have been able to access digital copies of MEW. Recent efforts have resulted in an Error Message"cannot process bad referrer". Help!! Also am I able to access ME digital also?

Trust all well your end.

John, Pocketmags has been the preferred method for both magazines for almost 6 years.

XD, Pocket mags is separate to MTM so needs you to registed and enter your subs number so you get access to your subscribed issues.

Tas, We have been dealing with a couple of other similar cases and it seems to be that those using Firefox and with a high level of security set stop the software referring to whether you have a subscription. Those affected were able to gain access by altering their settings. Using Pocket mags is the other way around it but you won't get the archive.

... and yet John's post is over 7 years old

It used to be so easy. Why change?. I have been a digital subscriber for many years but rarely use the service. Recently tried and failed to even see the magazine so printing articles is out. Ok for computer buffs but for an old metal basher it is useless. Thinking of stopping my subscription anyway when we get to number 300, my shelves are full since no 1.

Sorry just seen this Seamus.

The 'bad referrer' error means your browser's security settings are stripping your data when the link takes you from our website to the archive host.

As it then doesn't know your identity, it can't confirm you have a valid subscription, hence 'bad referrer'.

Answers are try another browser or experiment with your security settings.

We have only changed the digital access once, about 6 years ago.

It was essential to cope with the fact so many people use phones these days.

Why don't you go print only? Seems a shame to spoil such a collection?

Sorry Neil, one of my "senior " moments. Don't do CNC or 3D at all , time and cost is against me. Always get a kick out of the magazine.. For instance, the latest edition referred to a book by J A Radford, did not know that one was written. Now bought a copy and it brings back many happy memories of the days when I followed the series in the Model Engineer. I still have the spherical turning tool and the boring and facing attachment. Other parts and casting patterns had to be put on hold when the needs of a family and work took priority.

When I hear the mag drop through the letterbox it is time for my treat, a cup of coffee and a quite read

Hi, I can't access archive issues of MEW now that ' flash player ' is not now available, does anyone know how to access them.Many thanks in advance.Best regards Tony.

Hi Tony,

Most recently discussed in this thread, where Neil said 3 days ago: Good news, everyone... there is work in hand with converting the archives, although it will take a little while.

Hi Dave, Many Thanks for the prompt reply, looking foward to accessing them again.Best regards Tony.
