In both Chrome and MS Edge I can select only one target at a time to upload. (Win10, Ctrl "a" does not work and neither does shift. select) Is anyone else having this problem. If so, how did you solve it?
Has similar issues a month ago. Someone on the forum posted that Active X and Flash had to be enabled for this to work. Chrome does not support it as a default, but you can download something to add it. Tried it and it did not work easily. I was impatient and just downloaded the latest IE browser and it all started working for me. Perhaps this will work for you.
I took Gary's advice and pulled up IE. Works fine. I note that Edge no longer supports Active X. I would have to do more research on Chrome, there are a bunch of ActiveX settings. But I am sure it would work as per Pablo's advice. Too much trouble, I'm lazy, IE will do.
I found the attached instructions worked to enable uploading multiple images from Chrome. Make this change on the upload web site - do not use the general aavso web site address. When I did it the upload web page was http://184.73.185.143/app/restricted/uploading/Upload2.aspx

Hi Ed
Simply put Active X has to be enabled for the offending browser to be able to select several targets at the same time, that’s it.
Google “Enabling Active X for (Whatever Brand) Browser” there are even videos on how to do it and that should fix it.
Clear skies!

Thanks for the tip Gary!
