You may need to clear your browser cache after the upgrade. In some browsers you can do this quickly by doing a "hard refresh" by pressing Ctrl+Shift+R. If that doesn't work try one of these options:

• In chrome you do this by pressing Ctrl-Shift-Delete, make sure the "empty the cache" checkbox is checked, and click "Clear Browsing Data".
• On IE, press Ctrl-Shift-Delete and make sure 'Temporary Internet Files and website files" is selected. On the iPhone you do this in the Settings->Safari window.
• On other browsers look in the menu mentioning clearing browser data or cache.
