I was just able to replicate this. @JamesC, @DawnM, @ChristineT? It takes several seconds but typing a message will suddenly disappear and the resulting page has no email contact capability. Going back and trying again has the same result.

Do you know a direct contact email since their system has been changed or has issues

AFAIK, there's no direct email contact. You could try the chat or phone contacts.

Solar panels do NOT always charge cameras, or at times the software arlo put in the cameras that stops a person from using aftermarket charging components comes up even with ARLO solar panels saying connect an arlo charger, my solar panels get clear sun Numerous hours daily & should even charge with cloud cover like my home solar panels do.

This could be due to placement of the panel. The error message could be due to the cable not being secure.


Take a look here for troubleshooting and placement tips: My Arlo Solar Panel is not charging my Arlo Go or Arlo Pro camera battery; what do I do?

I see that now. Nothing we can do other than to use the existing options. @JamesC, any insight?

EcoDieselDave,

 

I've opened a support case on your behalf, an agent should reach out to you as soon as possible.

EcoDieselDave,

 

I've requested more information on this as well. I believe this is a display issue on the support page. I'll post an update once I know more.

Update:

 

In an effort to improve support efficiency and the overall customer experience we have altered the availability of our support options. Email support is still available when chat support is unavailable.

When I sync the new cameras (Arlo first generation) up to my - working great - Pro 2 base and Pro 2 camrea, the cameras are not showing up on Mode when I click the pencil next to "Armed." I'm trying to get them to detect motion and i can't even get to their Rules. I have re-synced, removed batteries, etc.

 

Please help

Try power cycling the base. Also try a browser which may work better.
