68. "what they are able to do on it is limited"

Mon Jan 30, 2012, 01:21 PM

Jan 2012

What is the problem they are having? Maybe somebody in the DU Macintosh group can help.

Or better yet

Have they called or written Apple Tech Support? Apple Tech Support is consistently one of the highest rated in the industry. Did they talk to anybody at their local Apple Store? Again they are quite good and helpful and can get any issues they are having sorted out.

What are their "serious compatibility with course software". Some of the poorer course software development programs do not test for browser compatibility. On our local campus, Google Chrome is the issue. So, is it a browser issue? Have them try Firefox. Have they spoken with their professor?
