Magic Magazine

[Randy DiMarco]

I noticed last night that at least some of the Magic Magazine issues are now showing up in the IPad app. Don't see them on the web page yet.

[Richard Kaufman]

For some reason the company doing this for us is having problems getting MAGIC to show up.
Yes, some are in the app, but I did not want to make the official announcement until all 25 years are up.

Hi Richard,

What is the status of the Magic Magazine digital archives?

[Richard Kaufman]

The status is that I keep complaining about it and trying to find what the problem is! Argh!

As far as I can tell, not a single issue is showing up in the android app. Perhaps they're only showing up on apple devices?

[Evan Shuster]

I can access all issues, effortlessly, on my iPhone. I can also access all issues on my Kindle, but it is quite a bit more cumbersome switching between issues, and switching between Genii and Magic. Nonetheless, I do have access to all.

[Richard Kaufman]

More issues of MAGIC are now showing up on my Apple devices, but it's still missing many issues.

[Ted M]

I have neither iPhone nor Kindle, and see no sign of MAGIC in my desktop browser.

Been looking forward to it since its announcement last year...

[Richard Kaufman]

No, it doesn't appear in the desktop browser and I have no idea why. Can't get a straight answer out of the company, either. Argh.

[Ted M]

We feel bad complaining to you.

Can we complain directly to the company?

[Richard Kaufman]

No. Only I have access to the company, and I do complain regularly, and more recently quite vocally.

[Ted M]

That's the spirit!

[Mowee]

Any further word of Magic Magazine for the web?

Any further word of Magic Magazine for the web?

Yes. They were up, but some problems still have to be worked out See this thread:

[Richard Kaufman]

It was on for a while, but was too buggy and I had it turned off.
The company has been working steadily in improving the speed and I've seen a test site where things look to be well on the way to success. I hope that access to MAGIC will be back up in a week or two.

Nothing on my Commodore 64. Ditto my Timex Sinclair 1000. Who should I call about this!?

[Richard Kaufman]

HAL.

[Philippe Billot]

HAL Bundy?

[Bob Farmer]

As Martin Gardner pointed out, if you move the letters in HAL one space to the right you get IBM. I'll call them and that will give me a chance to complain about my IBM PCjr: the touch screen has never worked.
