Problem uploading photos after IOS update ?
 

Anyone having problems uploading photos to pelican after the last IOS update? I've never had an issue, but now I get a file extension error for the photo I'm trying to upload from my IPAD. I've tried several including pics I've previously uploaded.

Thanks.

Yep, me too, pad and phone, same problem

Anyone besides me and Geronimo having this issue? I still can't post pics from my iPad...

I just tried to upload a photo from my iPad Air and got the same photo extension error. I'm using Safari to access Pelican and running iOS 9.1b5.

Has anyone figured out the issue? I can't post from iPad Air 2 or iPhone 6. Worked fine up until last update...

Send Wayne a note asking him to make sure the boards MIME types allow both jpg and jpeg.

iOS9 changed the naming convention from jpg to jpeg.

jpeg is the correct and original file extension but due to the 3 character extension limitation in Windows back in the day it was shortened to jpg.

File extensions are associated with file formats, MIME types, it lets a computer know what file it's dealing with.

The board has a list of MIME types that it will recognize along with basic guidelines on how to handle / what to do with them.

I have this issue and SM gave me the same advice in October. I sent Wayne a note, but haven't heard back and the problem still exists.

I'm still having this problem. Anyone figure a workaround on iPad?

Just got a PM from Wayne.

Problem fixed.
