Styles drop out using child theme on IE9

The theme displays well on IE9 but when I switch to the out of the box child theme provided in the download, many of the styles are dropping out (mobile menu is always open, all inline lists are vertical and bulleted, icon font is missing).

Hi,
I tested this again on my end but could not find any issues with he child theme on any version of IE (9 and above): http://screencast.com/t/svu3HxvWcP
Please make sure you do not have any custom code in the child theme and please only use the version of the child theme that comes with your theme version. It is included in the main package.
Thank you!

I’m using a brand new install with the out of the box parent and child theme so no custom code. If I use an IE9 emulator like the Developer Tools provided with IE, the child theme displays fine. (Using just the parent theme, everything also looks good in IE9.) However, using the child theme on an actual IE9 browser on a Windows 7 machine is where I see the problems. Others users in my organization are seeing this, too, so I don’t think it’s due to anything funky with my browser/OS setup. If I copy over the styles from the parent to the child theme style.css, then that seems to fix the display problems in IE9.

Modal login always appears at top, icon fonts drop out, horizontal list styles lost: http://www.screencast.com/t/IgsGl9detJec

Thanks you!

Hello,
We will investigate this further and fix it in the next version of the theme. If adding the style.css file in the child theme works, please use this method until we are able to fix the issues.
Thank you
