Hello all. Does anyone here blog using a Mac computer? I am currently blogging on wordpress and I hate it since I have switched from Microsoft. I have picture problems all the time and now I can't even link anything. When support is contacted they are great, but another problem pops up the next time I try to post. It is most frustrating. If you blog with a Mac, who hosts your blog and do you have any problems with it?

Thanks and God bless.

We are a Mac family and I use Blogger. I have never had any problems other than "operator error" !

Hi Kristen,

I use a Mac and had all sorts of problems when using Safari (hence the constant blog moving). I've since downloaded Mozilla Firefox (which is very similar to Safari to use) and it's been making blogging SO much easier.

That being said, I'm currently using Blogger, but haven't had any problems with Wordpress once I switched to Firefox.

I recently switched to a Mac and Blogger works just as well as before. I also use Firefox not Safari.

Ditto about Firefox. I have been using Blogger for about five months. I didn't have problems posting with Safari. It was just that I didn't have access to all of the editing and linking features, which made it much more work. I just recently figured out the browser thing and installed Firefox. There are still a few things, like putting pictures in particular places, that I can't figure out, but otherwise, I love it. I don't know how to add my link to my signature, but it is herdingturtles101.blogspot.com . Come and check out what a complete novice can do!!

Thanks for the tip about Firefox! I just switched and now I can access all the same editing features on Typepad that I can on my PC.
