Internet Explorer Settings in Blackboard 9

There appears to be some compatibility issues for Blackboard 9

Using Internet Explorer 8 with Blackboard 9 may cause problems for those of you attempting to open Microsoft Word, PowerPoint or Excel documents. One workaround is to use Mozilla Firefox. We have Mozilla Firefox installed in all of the labs and Library at CSM.

Another workaround is to change the Compatibility Mode in IE8.

To do so, you must be in Internet Explorer. Click on "Tools" then "Compatibility View Settings" then check "Display all websites in Compatibility View".

You will need to restart you IE8 browser before the change takes effect.

Hopefully we will have this problem resolved soon.
