College student can not take online tests

Hello,
My daughter can not take online tests on her ibook because the college she is attending uses a Windows only program called secure exam for online test taking. Is there some Mac based program out there that will allow her to take her tests online while allowing her teacher to grade her exams using his PC?
Thanks for all you help in advance!

Samuel,
If you do decide to use VirtualPC for the Mac, may I recommend that you look into educational pricing?
I just bought the program two weeks ago and paid $114.95 for it. (This price is for VirtualPC only and not for a bundled copy of Windows. I already had an old copy of Windows 2000 that was not installed anywhere, which I used. If you don't have a separate, unused, and fully licensed copy of Windows, you will need to buy one, and that costs additional money.)
But if you buy VirtualPC by September 30, Microsoft has a $30 rebate, which makes the product cost $74.95 for students, faculty, and staff.
The company I bought from was CCVSoftware (no space in the name), and I was pleased with their delivery and attention to the order.
I was
b NOT,
however, pleased with VirtualPC for the Mac and will be returning my copy:
1. The program seizes control of the Macintosh and does not permit even a mouse pointer outside the VirtualPC window.
2. It is slow, which I expected. I did not expect, though, that I would take me 2:50 (two minutes, fifty seconds) to load VirtualPC, Windows 2000, and then the full version of the Oxford English Dictionary. I can look up a word in my paper copy of the dictionary faster.
3. Worst of all, to me, is that you cannot switch from a VirtualPC emulation window back to Macintosh mode and then back to VirtualPC; once you are inside VirtualPC, you are stuck there until you shut down the copy of Windows you are running.
Hope this helps with your decision,
Jim Chumbley

    Can not upgrade online
    I keep on encoutering an error saying me that i can not upgrade online or change my services. it keeps me asking to call verizon to make changes.
    Why the error ? I recently made some chanegs to my account and the error happened after that . something looks broken.

  • How do I just remove the current update to 3.6.12 and go back to an earlier version as I can not take the continual freeze ups ever few mins.? If this continues I will remove Firefox totally and switch to another browser I can not take this anymore.

    I can NOT take the continual freeze ups of my entire browser even worse when updating a page let alone just opening email. I closed the browser and have had to use even just microsoft or Google since this Firefox has gotten so horrible...
    I clear my history and my cache so many times a day I can not keep track anymore and that is insane to have to do it as many times as I am even worse that it does not help in the least!
    I have used Firefox for years now but if I have to remove it and switch to a different one by the days end I will and I will post in Facebook to all my friends who I had switch to Firefox what and why though some have already just switched to other browsers.

    First, that cannot be an iBook G4 as that machine cannot run Snow Leopard let alone Mountain Lion.  To run Snow Leopard it has to be an Intel processor, not a G4.  What does it show as the Model Identifier in About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Model Identifier?
    Second, if you have erased the hard drive there should not be remnants of any prior content.  Even though Disk Warrior is saying nothing is wrong with the hard drive, it sounds as though there are problems.  You may want to consider simply replacing the hard drive so there are no questions about faults.  A good source is OWC, http://www.macsales.com where they also have on-line videos showing how to do the replacement.
    Third, you could also try again to restart using the Snow Leopard DVD/CD and use Disk Utility on that install disk to erase again, and do it a couple times, then try to install.  If it continues to refuse, then it sounds as though there is a fault with the hard drive.

    THE use of the apple support is a mess also.

    What is wrong with this maverick OS?

    The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
    You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

  • I have the new iphone 4s and the camera shutter wont open so i can not take photos it is only 4 weeks old dose anyone know why? :(

    have the new iphone 4s and the camera shutter wont open so i can not take photos it is only 4 weeks old dose anyone know why?

    Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?
    The next step would be to restore the iphone as new in iTunes. If that doesn't work, make an appointment at the Genius Bar at the nearest Apple Store.
    Best of luck.

  • HP4275A can not pass self test after running the labview program

    I am using Labview to control HP4275A LCR meter. The Labview program is just the instrument driver for the HP4275A, and it works great. Before running the program, the instrument can pass both Open and Short test perfectly. But after running the program, it can not pass self test, neither Open nor Short. I don't know why?? Is it relative to my Labview program??
    Thanks

    Thank you so much for your help. Yes, the instrument is in Local after running the instrument driver. In normal Open self test, just choose Capactiance as the Display A, and leave the four output terminals open then press the Self Test button. The Open self test will start and "OP" will be shown in the DIsplay A window, after 2 seconds, the open test will be finished. If something abnormal, the number of the abnormal step is displayed in Display A. Similar with the Short test.
    The problem I had was: before running the instrument driver, the self tests pass; but after running the instrument driver, the Open and Short test show abnormal, Open test is abnormal at step 17, and Short test is abnormal at step 24.
    And the instrument driver is only write commands into the instrument and then read back measuring values from it. Nothing else. So I am not sure if the problem is my instrument driver.
    The weird thing is the problems happened several times and then if I do the Open and Short self test again after running the instrument driver, both pass. I am not sure whether the problem will come back or not.
    Ia there any help??
    Big thanks

  • Can not run the test form using servlet (patch 8)

    Installed 9I AS 1.0.2.2.1 and forms patch 8 on Windows 2000.
    Configured the Forms Listener Servlet by following the white paper "Forms 6i Patch 8: Oracle Forms Listener Servlet for Deployment of Forms on the Internet".
    I can get the page titled Forms 6i Listener Servlet using URL: http://myserver/servlet/oracle.forms.servlet.ListenerServlet.
    However, I can not run the test form using the servlet by the url:
    http://myserver/servlet/f60servlet?config=servlet. In the formsweb.cfg file I also added a section
    [servlet]
    serverURL=/servlet/oracle.forms/servlet.ListenerServlet
    No meaningful error message. At first it seems very slow, and then shows the "The page can not be displayed" page.
    Please advise.
    Thanks.

    u must add "Script Alias ifcgi60 "$ORACLE_HOME/forms60/cgi" in confirguration.

  • Despite adding more storage = 20GB my devices tell me that I can not take any photos/video, why would this be?

    Despite adding more storage = 20GB my devices tell me that I can not take any photos/video, why would this be?

    Because the issue is that you don't have sufficient available space on your phone, not that you don't have enough space in your iCloud account.  Adding storage in iCloud does not give you more space on your phone.
    You can check your available space by going to Settings>General>Usage.  You'll need to delete or sync some data off your phone to freee up more space.

  • College Student Deals Not Working - MacBook Pro

    I went to my local bestbuy store to buy a MacBook Pro. I asked the sales associate if they offered a discount for college students because I am buying this laptop for college. He said yes you can get $150 off your MBP and directed me to "www.bestbuy.com/studentdeals". I signed up with my ".edu" email and received an email requesting confirmation. I confirmed my email and waited for the coupon deals for about 2 hours in store, but ended up going home because I didn't receive email. I called customer service multiple times and they were no help either. Any idea what the problem is? Any solution??

    Hello Singh/ae1222-
    Given how cash-strapped most college students typically are, every little bit of savings you can get will definitely help!  I’m sorry to hear that you have not received your email with the details and coupons for our student deals.
    While usually those emails will show up with an hour or two, there are times where it can take up to 24 hours as the email address does go through a verification process.  In addition, some schools have filters in place on their email addresses that block marketing-type emails such as this from coming through. 
    If you haven’t received your email, I would recommend checking with the IT department at your school to see if this is an issue.  Otherwise, you can also send me a Private Message with your .edu email address and I can see if we can check on it for you.
    Sincerely,

  • College Student Deals Not Working - Pebble watch

    Can you please help? I have been trying for three days to get a response from the college student deal was well. I really want to purchase a macbook air for my daughter but every time I ask if she's received an email, she hasn't. This is frustrating as we are ready to make our purchase and can't get any straight answer from customer service except to wait for the coupon to appear. 
    ANy help would be greatly appreciated!

    Welcome to the Best Buy forums!
    I’m sure that your daughter is really looking forward to getting that MacBook Air for her schoolwork and hopefully we can help her out with one of those student deals!  I’m sorry to hear that she hasn’t received any emails yet from when she signed up.
    Usually, most of the signups with an .edu email will take a few hours to confirm, but there are times where it may take 24-48 hours.  Please also keep in mind that these emails may also be forwarded to her Spam/Junk mail folders and that some schools block marketing emails as well.  If she has not received that email yet after 48 hours, I would have her follow up with her school’s IT department to make sure that they do not block them.
    Thanks for connecting with us!

  • What are the reasons why a wideband modem can not take a CPE?

    I have an M-CMTS with RFGW1.
    I have the following settings:
    int c6/1/3
    downstream Modular-Cable 1/0/0 rf-channel 16-17 upstream 0-3
    int c6/1/4

    cable fiber-node 10
      downstream Modular-Cable 1/0/0 rf-channel 16-19

    cable rf-channel 17 bandwidth-percent 45
    cable rf-channel 18 bandwidth-percent 45
    cable rf-channel 19 bandwidth-percent 45
    the cable modem gets online, but does not take cpe, my question is why?
    D2.0 modems do take CPE, but the 3.0 modems do not. I know that may be a problem in the RFGW1 because another time I changed the port and it worked.
    but I would like to know the reason why only the wideband modems are not taking cpe.
    I'd like to hear from you.
    thanks in advance

    Hi Diego,
    - The first time that was put online, it became as w-online and take CPE (The DHCP assigned IP addresses both, Modem and CPE)- But it did not work, so I reset the modem, and went online again, (but did not have a CPE IP address)
    I'm not following you here. In the first point you mentioned that the modem came w-online and the CPE got an IP. However, in the second point, you mentioned that it didn't work and then you reset the modem. What didn't work (I understood the problem was CPE getting IP address which, as you mentioned, was done on the first point)?
    You also said that, at some point, the modem was online but not pingable. The CPE didn't get IP that time. In that case, was the modem online or w-online? What was the primary channel for this modem? Take into account that, for wideband, the modem uses the primary channel to register and perform all Docsis operation. Any data traffic (like a ping or a DHCP request from a CPE) will use the secondary channels. If these channels have some issue you may see an issue as the one described.
    For the D2.0 modem using Mo1/0/0:16, it could be similar as above. If this channel is OK but the rest have some issues, you could see a behavior like that. The D2.0 modem will use the primary channel (only channel) also for data transfer. Since this channel is OK, the D2.0 modem don't have any issue. However, if a D3.0 modem uses Mo1/0/0:16 as primary it may come online (since the channel is OK) but, if the rest of channels have issues, then you may have problem to pass data traffic.
    Did you check if D2.0 modem can use all the channels? You may also want to check the modulation profiles being used. It could be that you are using a lower modulation profile for ranging (initial, station maintenance) and a higher one for data transfer which may be affected by some condition in the network.
    Best regards.
