Question
A5. When I log on I get a message about an error in
the authentication module. How can I fix this?
Answer. This error comes from blocking cookies on
your computer. Some folks do not permit Internet Explorer to
set cookies and Blackboard cannot function without cookies.
In order to use Blackboard you will need to enable
cookies on your computer. To do that, start Internet
Explorer and click on Tools -> Internet Options -> Privacy
and move the slider to "Medium" (or lower). After you do
that, you should be able to log onto our Blackboard system.
If you are concerned about privacy and do not want
cookies enabled on your computer, you can reset that slider
to a higher level when you have finished with your
Blackboard session. However, you'll have to remember to set
it to "Medium" every time you want to work with your online
class. |
