Hello everyone! Hope you are all having a great day. I've been having the worst time getting on and or manuvering around CakeCentral. Is anyone else having a problem? It's been going on for some time but seems a bit worse here lately. I click on CakeCentral and it seems to take forever and then I get the page that says "The page cannot be displayed" It did this 9 times before I could get onto CC this time. I have high speed internet and I don't have any problem at all with any other site. Hmmm, wonder why I'm having such a problem???

Yes, I think they are having some technical problems. I couldn't log on for about 1/2 an hour.

I had problems the first time I tired to access CC today. I assume it's just that it's a very popular site today and with the graphics and pics on the site, it's very slow.

Hang in there, it will get better. icon_smile.gif

Yes I have the same problem at times. The only thing I can think of is maybe the website is so large now and this makes it slower.

I am very persistent and just keep clicking on refresh icon_biggrin.gif

I'm having the same problem. I've been kicked out numerous times. Must be overloaded with members being on at the same time. Sort of like all circuits are busy!!!

I'm with ya, too! I get kicked off every once in a while with a server error. I usually take this as a hint that I have to get other things done! (hee hee)

I occasionally get that, but not a whole lot. I've just assumed there were a lotta folks logging on.

OK, now at least I know it's not just me. This is like my favorite place in the whole wide world so I just keep refreshing too until I finally get it. icon_biggrin.gif I wondered if maybe it was due to a high rate of traffic slowing it down but I feared that it was my computer. Geez, I've got too many cake decorating items that I want to buy, to have to worry about the expense of a computer repair. icon_lol.gif OK, thanks everyone!!

Yes the problem is that our servers are overloaded with people accessing the site.

We have a major hardware upgrade coming this weekend, but until then there will be times of the day where CC gets slow or gives page cannot be displayed errors.

I'm ''SO HAPPY'' to know an upgrade is coming.
A few months back, I upgraded from DSL to Fiber Optics which is usually faster.
Off and on at different times I was at the point of pulling my hair out because it took forever to get on this site and when I finally did, it took forever to get to the different pages to view the cakes or to read questions and answers. It was so frustrating that I would just go poke elsewhere in 'cyberspace'. That did not make me too happy!!
I LOVE CAKE CENTRAL & ALL THE FRIENDLY MEMBERS!!!!

I, too, have been having lots of problems, but it has been ongoing. Besides being kicked off and slow, my major problem is that every few days it tells me my ID and password are incorrect - then I have to send for a new password, go through all that confirmation code stuff, and try to re-establish my identity. icon_mad.gif And, it's random - I can open the site for days and remain logged in, and other times, I have to go through the password rigamarole. Anyone else had that same problem??? You're right - I'm addicted too - and I really needed the pictures I had saved...finallly tot them, but it took 2 days in all. Thanks to Heath and to everyone else for your constant help and encouragement. PAT

Yea, I've also had the problem where suddenly when I'm on the site, it says that I'm not logged on when in fact I stay logged on. So, I have to enter my password, etc again. This happens about twice a week.

I have a cable modem, and I have always had that trouble getting on and trying to navigate. We own a website also, so I wasn't about to complain about it (I LOVE this place!!) I would just keep trying until eventually I would be able to get around. With the amount of pics on here, it has to take an unbelievable amount of bandwidth. Just know we appreciate the site, and thank you for trying to make it even better for all of us addicts. thumbs_up.gif
