OK so I am trying to figure out my Samsung tablet. The problem I am having is when someone posts a pic on the forums using photobucket all I can see is a blue square with a "?" in it. Anybody else experienced this? Pics show up on my desktop, laptop, and phone but not on the tablet. Is there as setting that I need to change?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Garth
 
First try clearing your internet history/cookies/data. I'm not too familiar with Samsung tablets but what Internet browser are you using on it? I've heard sometimes certain browsers won't load photobucket pics. I also just read that sometimes disconnecting from your wifi and reconnecting can fix it.
 
Not really good with this stuff but here's my .02 worth. Check what app your device has, photobucket seems to be having difficulty with Samsung devices. You may just need an updated app. I have an apple I phone and recently had to update mine.
 
go to the app store and get mozilla firefox and if that doesnt work try opera browser too
 
It is not your droid tablet if that helps any, although I would download something better like firefox. It seems to be a long standing issue with photobucket. There are tons and tons of internet threads that go back a few years from people using everything from chrome, IE, firefox and even tapatalk on everything from phones, tablets, desktops that have similar issues that suddenly resolve itself after a while. If you can see other images, it is not a setting but rather a problem isolated to pb.
 
use firefox and adblock plus, works good on android. I have no problems using photobucket on mine. The stock browser is useless.
 
also, you can download and install adobe flash, which doesn't come installed and is supposedly unsupported. works fine.
 
Good luck Garth :thumbup: I wish I could help :D I only use a Kindle Fire.
