Thanks all,
Genes just told me to remove and re-download Acrobat Reader - that didn't work!
I checked your suggestion jax and the solution is to go to the bottom right hand corner of the blank page and click on the first symbol on the left and the original image appears. Apparently it's because the 1901 on GR is in pdf format - all the others are in jpg as they are on FMP and Ancestry

I have this problem too. I haven't found a way to fix it yet. Luckily on the transcript you can view others in the house hold.

All the other census work okay for me but on the other hand, my computer frequently crashes when I'm looking at 1911.

Just another of life's little tricks played upon me

Hi all,
I am not able to view the original page for 1901 census. I can see the transcript for the person I do a search for though. All other censuses work fine. Anyone else have this problem? I thought it might be because I use Google Chrome, but probably not as the other censuses are OK.
How do I report this to GR?
