Using Elluminate Live!®

 

To help you have a great experience with Elluminate Live!®, we recommend you pre-configure your computer prior to the session. Please allow 5-10 minutes for the entire process. If you have previously installed and configured the required software, proceed straight to #3 - Joining an Elluminate Live!® session.

 

1. Before you install the required software:

 

Ensure that your computer satisfies the minimum system requirements.

 

Ensure that your computer is connected to the Internet. A minimum 28.8 Kbps connection is needed.

 

Ensure that you have a microphone, speakers or headset to take full advantage of the audio capabilities during the session.

 

Please visit the Java support check at http://www.elluminate.com/support. If you do not have Java installed ensure that you have administrator access on your computer or can contact a system administrator who can install Java for you. Java can be installed by following the steps on the Java support check page

 

2. Installing the required software (Macintosh computers running OSX 10.1 or higher may skip this step):

 

There are three steps for installing Elluminate Live!®. Go to the Support page, and follow the instructions in the First Time Users section.

 

Step 1 - Complete your setup

3. Joining an Elluminate Live!® session:

 

Once you have completed installing and configuring the required software, you can join the online session.

 

Your meeting organizer will provide you with a link for the meeting. You will be redirected to a login page.
