Browser Diagnostic Test

Please click on the button below to check whether your current browser settings will allow you to use Canvas.  Note: Browser Diagnostic Test will open in new window.

browser

Important: For all browsers you will need to have JavaScript, Java, Cascading Style Sheets, and Cookies enabled and pop-up blockers turned off when using Canvas. If you pass all checks in this test you are able to use the main features of Canvas.

This test will verify your browser type and version and will detect whether or not JavaScript, Java, and cookies are enabled. This test will not work with all browsers. You should only use browsers listed in the Computer Requirements page for accessing Canvas.

Enable Pop-Ups for Canvas

While using Canvas, if you are unable to view discussion postings, quiz windows, or download links, then you need to disable pop-ups. Depending on the pop-up blocking software you are using, you may be able to set the Rio Hondo College Canvas site (http://riohondo.instructure.com) as an allowed site, or you may need to turn-off the pop-up blocker while using Canvas.

Pop-up blockers work in the background while you browse the internet. When they detect a pop-up window that may be an unwanted advertisement, they automatically close the window. This can prevent Canvas from performing properly.

To disable pop-up blockers for Canvas:

a) Search your hard drive for any software with “pop-up” in the name. Disable it or set the Rio Hondo College Canvas site (http://riohondo.instructure.com) as an allowed site.

b) Pop-up blocking functions are included in some anti-virus, internet security, personal firewall, and browser programs. Disable the relevant setting in the program or set the Rio Hondo College Canvas site (http://riohondo.instructure.com) as an allowed site. Examples of programs that include pop-up blocking functions include the following.
