Web pages cache (store) copies of websites to make browsing faster. Instead of having to load a page from the internet, it will just load the page it has stored locally on your system. The browser SHOULD update if there are changes, however some browsers are slower (or dumber) than others.
- Microsoft Internet Explorer is the worst offender at this.
- Apple's Safari isn't far behind.
- Google Chrome rarely if ever has this issue.
- Mozilla FireFox rarely if ever has this issue.
So the easiest way to find out if your browser is showing you an old copy of the my.presonus.com account page, is to open a private browsing page. The private browsing page does not cache or store any web content locally. When you close your private browsing page, the locally cached pages viewed during that session go away.
To open a private browser window we have four examples and links for you to follow for each major browser. If you don't see your browser on here, such as Opera, Netscape, etc. go back to the site where you got your browser to find out how to open a private web session.
