Two most frequent questions

Well, aside from "Can I use this stapler?"

While in your eDisk account, be aware of where you are saving files. The default location is the local computer Microsoft Office folder. If you save to this folder, your files will ONLY exist at that one machine. Always save to Desktop. This is your eDisk desktop, which will follow you to any eDisk logon.

In order to use wireless, you will first need to find a good wireless zone (at least 3 bars on a Mac), then you will need to authenticate. VPN (virtual privacy network) is used to authenticate. The most recent VPN software can be found at http://software.fandm.edu. If you are unsure how to install and use VPN, there are a few helpful tutorials found here.

For further assistance, either see a Librarian at the Ask Me desk or visit Computing.
