Have you ticked 'Remember me on this computer'?
Bobbisox1 I'm not having problems here which ever browser I use.
Also, have you closed Firefox in between first using AB and then coming back again? If so, is Firefox configured to remember cookies?

Hi Chris, I’m using my iPad mostly, must admit I don’t have the problem on my desk top
I have to sign in every time I look at another website on my iPad but I’m using Safari.
On the main screen of your ipad, does the word 'Private' appear bottom left? You may have enabled private browsing. Just tap on the word.

Yes it does Scorpio
Is the bar at the top greyed out? Just tap on the word 'private' to disable it, and you should be ok.
Question Author
Can’t see any bar ,only the www.answerbank one
Sorry, that's what I meant. If its greyed out, you'll have to sign in to every website.
....you need your password for.

What? Me iPad? Not likely haha , it’s not old TC :0/
On Mac - Chrome - It keeps making me "accept" the privacy banner every time i refresh the page, when I try to play with the privacy acceptance and then "Save and exit" it deletes all the cookies and logges me out. I think the issue is that the privacy banner isn't saving my preferences... So that makes me think the issue is with cache or something? I dunno

I was wondering what to do about it and how
Question Author
Snap Spath, it’s a pain
Just re-downloaded Chrome, did nothing.. Still having to accept privacy banner every refresh
Just switched to Safari, all is fine now.
