TROUBLE SHOOTING!

We have had some report that there could be problems with Internet Explorer 7.0 Web Browser especially when using the Windows Vista Operating System.  Here are 2 options you can try if you are not able to log into the members only area and you are using Internet Explorer 7.0 Web Browser.

First check to make sure you are using Internet Explorer 7.0 We Browser by following these steps:

  • Click on "Help" in the Toolbar at the top of the screen.
  • Click on "About Internet Explorer".
  • It should display a window that shows which version of Internet Explorer you are using.
  • Click "Ok" to close the window.

Option 1:

  • Open IE 7.0 Web Bowser
  • Click on "Tools" in the Toolbar at the top of the screen.
  • Click on "Internet Options" (a new window will appear)
  • Click on the "Security" tab
  • Click on the green "Trusted Sites" checkmark
  • Click on the "Sites" Button
  • In the box that says "Add this website to the zone" enter the following: *.ahs.org
  • Remove the check mark in the box that says: "Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone."
  • Click the "Close" button
  • Click the "Ok" button - the window will disappear.
  • Try to log in.
  • Remember the login is case sensitive and everything is lowercase letters.
  • If this does not solve the problem, try option 2.

Option 2:

  • Open IE 7.0 Web Bowser
  • Click on Tools in the Toolbar
  • Click on Internet Options (a new window will appear)
  • In the Browsing History section Click on "Delete"
  • In the Cookies section click on "Delete Cookies"
    You will be asked if you wish to delete all cookies in the temporary Internet files folder. Select "Yes".  This remove things the browser may remember such as old passwords and clears its memory.  It will not hurt your computer.  At worst you may have to reenter a username and password in some sites for which you have usernames and passwords
  • Close the "Delete browsing History Window"
  • Close Internet Options window and try to log in.
  • Remember the login is case sensitive and everything is lowercase letters.
  • If this does not solve the problem please click here and tell us what is happening.
