Post title: Deadlines :(

Hi all! I also missed today's events due to deadlines. I was trying to watch the sessions by clicking on the above link but got an error message: "The page you requested could not be found. Please check the URL for possible errors. If you have encountered a bad link on ProZ.com that is in need of correction, please notify site staff. Thanks in advance." Did anyone else experience that issue?
Thanks, Elizabeth

I was shut out of the event held this morning between 8:30 Am and 9:30 AM CDT. My entire computer crashed and I've spend over half an hour and more trying to restore it's systems.

The message that I receive when I attempt to regain access is that I am not "certified"? What the ....?

This is the first (of two!) post-editing and MT presentations today, out of 6 (so one-third is not exactly "focusing", there are 2 thirds on other topics :)

I was looking forward to attending the sessions today, but deadlines came in the way.

Now I finally have time to enter, but the "sessions" tab is not working, just getting to a "dead end".

Post title: Catherine - the sound issue is on your end

Hi Catherine.

The sessions are pre-recorded and broadcast. We actively monitor the broadcast for any issues. I can confirm that the audio was streamed flawlessly for Jeff's session. The issue you describe, is an indication that the internet connection/speed on your end is insufficient to stream the session.

You can try to close all other applications and programs, like Skype, Outlook etc and refresh the page to see if the connection on your end improves. All sessions also include a "low bandwidth"option lower on the session page. There is some text right below the video play that describes this.

Simply scroll down on the page, and play the "low bandwidth" option. This low bandwidth option can be paused, giving the video time to buffer for proper playback.

Hope this helps.

Drew

Post title: No sound problems with Jeff's presentation ?

Dear Colleagues,

Please tell me if I am alone in this situation : I can't hear Jeff Allen's presentation (on ISO). I only can hear approx one syllabe out of 4 or 5 :-(
However, I had no problem with the first presentation (about being our own CEO).

Thanks
Catherine
