Hey All,
 
Is anyone having major issues with their laptops? It takes mine 2/3 tries to connect to CMSSITES. A lot of my students don't have access to their documents once they are logged in.  I was wondering if we are all having the same issues.
 
Also, my teacher laptop just died. I went to plug it in yesterday and it would not even turn on.  Just wanted to see how everyone else technology is making out.
 
Thanks!!

Yes I had the same trouble. I just logged into it with my username and password then logged off and had the student log back in.
 
For your computer try removing the battery and then put it back in.
 
Let me know if that works.

I experience issues sometimes with them.  If the numbers lock key is on, some students are not able to log in to the computers.  You may have to restart the computer. 
I am having trouble with the teacher laptop.  How do you get it to work when you take it off of the docking station?
Thanks,

I had the same problem with my teacher laptop and removing the battery for a few minutes corrected the problem. I also do the same thing with the student laptops. also make sure the network cables are in all the way.

I was having the same difficulty and figured they must be pushing software downloads or something. The students had to log on several times, but eventually got on. The one with the document problem, I just saved their work to a flash drive until next time when the documents upload. My teacher laptop had that problem after the Christmas break, but I just had to plug up for a few days, then it was fine.
