Technical Support
What if my username and password do not log me in?
Please exit your browser (Internet Explorer), re-open your browser, browse to the log in page, and COPY and PASTE your username and password from the account info email you received.
What if, when clicking on the presentation, the window pops up, but the video does not start?
Please close the presentation window, hit refresh on the catalog page, and click on the appropriate presentation link (note: refreshing the catalog could show new presentations created because of technical issues arising on site).
What if the video comes across distorted or “green” colored?
This is likely due to an issue with Windows Media Player (PC) or Microsoft Silverlight (MAC). The likely solution is upgrading your software, closing all browsers, and re-open your browser and try again.
When attempting to view a video on a Windows Vista machine, I am able to launch the Player, but the video window is missing and in its place is the broken image (red x) graphic OR an error pops up that says: The media file for this presentation could not be found.
To work around this, do the following in Internet Explorer:
1. Go to Tools —> Internet Options.
2. Click on the Security tab.
3. At the bottom, uncheck the box labeled Enable Protected Mode.
4. Restart IE.
There are several quirks with Windows, Windows Media Player, and Internet Explorer that can cause the playback of sessions to fail. Here are some things to look into when playback doesn’t work.

2. Go to the Tools —> Options —> Player menu. Check the “Connect to the Internet” option.

4. Under “Streaming Proxy Settings” click Configure and verify the settings, if applicable.
5. Go to the Tools —> Options —> Network menu. Verify that the RTSP/UDP, RTSP/TCP and HTTP check boxes are checked. If this step doesn’t work then try the following settings, playing back the presentation after each step:
