1. Login to mccsc.instructure.com
2. Have student generate a pairing code per the posted observer instructions
3. Type /profile/observees after the mccsc.instructure.com for the full URL https://mccsc.instructure.com/profile/observees

Apple has recently updated their official cleaning guidelines for all of their devices in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Please find the most up to date instructions here:

MCCSC manages student apps. Those that are available to students can be found in the iPad app portal. See instructions for downloading apps.

Once you select install, it might take a few minutes for the app to appear on your device. If it doesn't successfully install after 5 minues, repeat the process.

After connecting to a wireless network, simply navigate to any webpage and receive the Content Keeper login screen. Enter student username (without @mccsc.net or @mccsc.edu extension) and student password to authenticate. Sometimes devices lose their connection to Content Keeper and require students to sign back in as outlined above.

This is likely because the device has lost its connection to Content Keeper, our Internet content filter.

• Close the app (click the home button twice rapidly, locate the app, and swipe upward).
• Navigate to any webpage and receive the Content Keeper login screen.
• Enter student username (without @mccsc.net or @mccsc.edu extension) and student password to authenticate.

Tap the home button twice in rapid succession, locate the problematic app, and swipe it upward off the screen.

Apps are managed through the app portal. If a student continues to have problems with a particular app, they may press down on the app until it vibrates and then choose to delete it. Once the app is gone, they may download it again from the iPad's app portal.

Try one of these methods:

1. After connecting to a wireless network, simply navigate to any webpage and receive the Content Keeper login screen. Enter student username (without @mccsc.net or @mccsc.edu extension) and student password to authenticate. Sometimes devices lose their connection to Content Keeper and require students to sign back in as outlined above.
2. Go to one of the areas with MCCSC drive-thru WiFi zones. See Technology/Connectivity for more information. Restart your device at one of those zones and sign on as you do at school. Try Canvas or one of those other educational sites. When you get home, connect to your WiFi and try the site again.

Try restarting your computer. Most times, this fixes the problem.

1. Unplug the cord from the power outlet and from the computer.
2. Disconnect the block from the cord.
3. Reconnect the block, connect the cord to the computer, and plug the cord and block back into the power outlet.

Your computer is likely in sleep mode. Use these steps:

1. Connect the charging cord and plug it in so your computer has power.
2. Hold the power button for 30-45 seconds. Let the button go and a light should flash. The flashing light means your computer has woken up. Now try to turn it on.
3. If the steps above don't work,
   • Repeat step 2.
   • Next, push the power button on and off two or three times.
   • Hold the button again for 30 seconds and release the button.
