Hi @aactech ,
You’re not the only one.
I find it’s easier to open a new window and leave the ifixit window open and then switch between the two that way no info is lost.
If you want to access a link on the same page as your answer e.g. an Ifixit repair guide via the device icon in the top right corner, just right click on it and select ''open link in new tab'' (or similar option depending on browser)
My bugbear is forgetting to copy my answer before posting and still getting caught by an Ifixit ''unexpected downtime'' error message and therefore losing my answer. I reported [post|15985|this]back in January and it is still happening occasionally but it seems to no one else. ;-(
-This has been happening for a while and I think may be being caused by the servers in the U.S. being backed up or maybe they’re working on something idk, as it seems to happen after hours (for them) between 2000 - 0200hrs USA MT time (or maybe PST time don’t know where the servers are) and I am 15 (or 16) hours in front so for me that is during the day.
