[E-trademarks] Signature problem

[mary harris]

Last week and then on Monday, I had problems with filing renewals and maintenance forms.  When I tried to save the form, the system erased all of the information I'd input, and did NOT save the form.  Had to start over again.  Then after hitting submit on the signature request screen, I got the equivalent of the black screen of death - the weird message we've all gotten (can't remember the wording) and I couldn't get around it.  At least the form was saved at that point so that I could open another browser (Firefox) and send the form to my inbox for forwarding to the client.  It's really a mess.

It is quite a disappointment to me that this failure in Trademark Center is not acknowledged in the System status and availability<https://www.uspto.gov/system-status> web page.

Yes exactly.  I had this happen earlier today and I failed to draw the connection that you had reported this problem two days ago.  Thankfully alert colleague Mary Harris pointed out that you had already reported this problem.  Thank you to Mary Harris.

Dear Group,

I am having a trouble with three of my drafted applications.  When I (or the client) click on the link to review and sign the application, the link goes to the correct page and then immediately redirects to my trademark center docket page.  It is happening on different computers with different browsers and redrafting the applications did not solve the problem.  Has anyone else encountered this problem?
