Laptop Compatibility

If you are bringing your own laptop:

Most laptops (<5 years old) updated with the latest web browser (we recommend FireFox:http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/ ) will have no problem.

Here are some things to check:

  • If possible, make sure you have have administrative privileges on your computer (should it become necessary to install or update software during the workshop).
  • Ensure that your computer is running a current browser (Mozilla Firefox 13/ Internet Explorer 8 (IE 9 preferred) / Safari 4 or later).
  • If you are a Windows user, ensure that your computer is running Java 6 Update 19 or later by going to http://java.com and click ‘Do I Have Java?’ Then click ‘Verify Java version’ and install.
  • If you are a Mac user, check that your computer has the latest Java installed (probably Java 6) and that it also is enabled. (Check it out at http://java.com or contact williams@cshl.edu for additional advice).
  • To test your Java installation, go to http://gfx.dnalc.org/files/apollo/test/ and follow the instructions at that site. The test is successful if an image opens up on your computer that looks like this screenshot: Java Screenshot
