repeated Account Sign In requests whilst I am listing. Why?

catpangur — Wed, 14 Nov 2012 02:20:36 GMT

I am increasingly getting the Sign-In to you account page whilst I am listing. Sometimes two or three times - usually when I am attempting to upload photos or finalise the List Your Item pages. And sometimes I get totally thrown out. anyone else get this? Is this an eBay issue due to heavy traffic at times, or could it be just a problem with my ISP?

Clear cache and cookies, firefox seems to be the most popular browser for eBay in so far that it seems more compatible. If all else fails, shut down, have a coffee, and restart. You would be surprised how much a complete shutdown can help 😄

Thanks guys. Re-boot the system? I have been thinking about booting it straight out the door....

Im a buyer and not a seller.

You would think signing in as a member

should last -all day.

Sick of changing from a guest back to member

dozens of times a day................Richo.

I use Firefox, and repeatedly get asked to sign in if revising listings or doing new listings. Have to clear cookies etc and restart browser - very frustrating.

For some weird reason this is more prone to happen in the evening than during the day....

Happens if I try to revise a listing using IE but hardly ever using FF or Chrome.

I don't have sign in problems creating or uploading listings as I use Turbo Lister.

Just found out maintenance is apparatnly being done 2 or 3 times this week, that may be part of the problem

Yep, damn maintenance glitches! I listed an item half an hour ago. It's visible when I click on the link from the email confirmation that is telling me my item is listed. It is not visible in my store, in the store category where it is supposedly listed or anywhere else for that matter :_|
