Are you ready for summer?

How about your computer and computing accounts?

Information Technology would like to share some tips to keep your computer and accounts operational over the summer to ensure a successful start next fall.

• Set a Secret Question to be able to reset your e-ID password (for e-mail, e-campus & more) any time, any where, at your convenience. To set a question, login to the Accounts Portal and select "e-ID Password/Secret Question." Then, click on "Change my Secret Question" to create a question and answer that only you know.
• Read Your JMU E-mail All Summer for computing account password expiration notices and other important news. Be sure to change your password when notified of expiration so you won’t need to visit the Computing HelpDesk your first day back to JMU.
• Keep Up with Your E-mail Quota by logging into Webmail and checking and deleting unnecessary e-mail in your "Junk Mail" and other folders (even if you forward your e-mail to another account). Be sure to click on "Empty My Trash" to free up quota!
• Continue to Protect Your Computer All Summer by following the instructions on our R.U.N.S.A.F.E. site and also by clicking on the Symantec AntiVirus Gold Shield for LiveUpdates and the Windows Update Icon for Critical Updates.

For more information, contact the JMU Computing HelpDesk at 540-568-3555 or www.jmu.edu/computing/helpdesk.
