I open the course, but it doesn’t run or play.

This situation is typically related to the system and/or the browser you are using. Complete the following steps in the order shown.

1. If you are not using a Johns Hopkins (JH) computer, we strongly recommend using a JH computer. We are able to troubleshoot issues on Johns Hopkins computers only. Although the Annual Required Training courses are designed with the option of completing on a mobile device, the LTI team is not able to provide any form of technical support for mobile devices in accordance with Johns Hopkins policies. The Johns Hopkins IT team and LTI team do not provide IT/technical support for non-Johns Hopkins devices. Therefore, some users may need to use a Johns Hopkins-issued computer to complete the course.

2. Browser: Try using a different internet browser, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or vice versa.

Use of Internet Explorer (IE) is discouraged. Microsoft has ended support for IE; correspondingly, the myLearning system vendor no longer offers support for courses when IE is used. While courses may run on systems using IE, the Learning Technology and Innovation team cannot provide support in the event a course does not function properly when used through IE. For help with your browser, contact your LAN admin or the JH IT Help Desk.

Safari is often incompatible with courses. You may experience success by switching from Safari to Chrome or Edge.

3. Pop-up blocker in browser: Verify your browser’s pop-up blocker is disabled. Instructions here.
4. Clear your browser’s history (cache). Instructions here.
5. Log into myLearning, and access the course.
6. If prompted to resume, click Yes and continue through the course.
7. If the original problem persists, take a screen shot where the course stops. Submit a ticket  to the Learning Technology and Innovation team, include the exact course name, a description of the problem, and the screen shot showing any errors.
