Use ‘airdrop’ or just send them to yourself via an email or message. You can send hundreds of images in one click. Or, just plug your phone into your computer and ‘Import from phone’. Select all, click ‘go’, grab a coffee and you’re done.

The only way I can think of besides using ICloud is transferring them all to my computer and then storing them in a portable hard disk…manually. I don’t trust cloud storages. Data leak and stuff.
Basically just procrastination. It’d take a hell of a long time. Should’ve learned something after my iPhone crash though.
Is mass-Airdropping images from iPad to Mac possible? Gotten too used to the Microsoft PC, maybe it’s easier to transfer data between Apple devices?

While I agree with the above, I do think the failure to work on a relatively recent browser should be investigated.

@Background Pony #D8F3
Don’t you have anywhere to back up all that data?
Having 120 gigabytes of irreplaceable data on a single slab of plastic and metal isn’t very safe. You need at least one backup that you keep up-to-date.

Ok, I’ll try that. Thanks a lot :D
Last time I tried six years ago, if the current system is too old, I’ll have to connect it to computer iTunes to update. It crashed last time, my iPad mini fell into a coma and I had to take it to a maintenance store. Luckily it lived and no data was lost. Still a little weary. Hope updates nowadays can be more failsafe cuz I don’t wanna risk my 120GB of a album. Facehoof

Springboard is what the iOS desktop (the screen with app icons) is called. I said it this way as it’d be familiar to you if you jailbroke your device, which you didn’t, so you have no idea what it is.
Try updating your iPadOS, it’ll be fine, I have hundreds of iPads at work which are far less powerful than yours and they don’t lag on new iPadOS.

Extensions? No. Plugins? I dunno how to use browser plugins. I can see the image, it seems to me that I just can’t actively do anything to the site. Forum browsing is also fine. Can’t use Chrome on iPad cuz iPad OS too old. Never updated my iPad OS since I first bought it. Never tried to because I remember someone complaining about new iPad OS lags. I don’t think it’s jailbroken either, I don’t dare try that. It’s just… a little bit old (bought it four yrs ago).
Also uhh, what’s Springboard? Not exactly familiar with all these functions and I hope I understood them correctly.
The issue began about a month ago, worked perfectly well before this.
:(
Oh regarding the update… Damn last time I tried that with my iPad mini it didn’t end well shiver Never tried anything with system updates after that :(
Maybe I’m just too retarded XD

Any extensions you’re using? Browser plugins? Does it also happen in private browsing mode? When opening an image page, can you see the image or does it not show up? Does it also happen if you try to open it in a different browser e.g. chrome (i know it’s the same browser engine under the hood)? Did you try rebooting your iPad? iPadOS 14.3 is an odd choice of iPadOS, since the latest 14.x is 14.8.1, is it jailbroken? If so, have you tried restarting Springboard without any tweaks enabled?
If possible, can you update your iPad to the latest iPadOS available for it (17.x)?

Derpibooru seems to be allergic to my iPad Safari. I can’t upload , upvote or fave images, edit my post descriptions or update my personal info. Everytime I try to do that it tells me “You can’t access that page”.
I have my cookies enabled. My iPhone Safari works perfectly fine for the site, and Google Chrome on my PC works fine too.
:’(
Shit I can’t even post in forums. Did I accidentally violate a site rule? If that’s the case I’m sorry :(
btw Is this the right place to ask this

When artists have a large number of edits made of their work, and it’s known they’re generally OK with edits, a separate tag is used to keep their primary tag clean (ie. only their original, unedited work).
It would be ideal if people didn’t immediately assume the absolute worst, going for malice or incompetence and public outcry, and instead just asked.

As for the supposed ban, if they don’t have an account then most likely they’re using a VPN, phone network, or shared IP previous used by a malicious actor. It happens all the time and the message clearly states how to get in contact with staff if it’s believed to be an error.

This isn’t DeviantArt - I don’t even use that site more than once or twice a year. Give me a link to whatever you are talking about please so I can see for myself.

Sooo what’s the punishment for falsing reporting someone EVEN IF THEY ARENT A MEMBER OF THE SITE
… help me out here. How could someone who is not on this site be reported? What would they even be reported FOR?
I mean, let’s assume someone reported someone on DeviantArt for something they did on DeviantArt - that is not as rare as it should be. I’m dealing with someone right now who is absolutely incensed that I won’t ban someone from DeviantArt. Because apparently mods here are mods of every other site on the planet in some people’s heads.
reported for good reasons about bad edits made of their art
If someone is making bad edits of an artist’s works, that sounds like a perfectly legitimate Rule #1 report. No one would be banned for that.
And now all of their art is suddenly gone after they were trying to report badly made edits of their work they did not want on the site
There are one thousand, eight hundred and fourty images on artist:aleximusprime.
What do you mean “all of their art is suddenly gone”? This makes me suspect I still have no idea who you are talking about.
I need to know why and how this occured
Well, that’s a problem because you aren’t the person banned, and whomever was banned was banned for reasons that are purely their confidential and private business.
The only thing that I could find that was even CLOSE to what you’re saying is this temporary informational ban that began; “This is an informational ban, as we have no other way to contact you - you have done nothing wrong” and then told them how to get in contact with us so we could talk.
Is that what you are freaking out about?
