Computer System Requirements

As you promote the “Nebraska News Link” website and e-subscriptions, be sure to advise your staff and customers of the computer system requirements that are necessary to access the site.

Because of the large (scanned newspaper pages) files being accessed on the website, these software requirements should be installed for proper performance and optimal function:

OPERATING SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

For PCs - Windows version 2000 or above

For MACs - OSX version 10.3 or above

ADOBE ACROBAT READER REQUIREMENTS:

You must have version 7 or above for toolbar options to function properly. Adobe Acrobat Reader can be downloaded at no charge from the “Nebraska News Link” home page (bottom left box).

BROWSER REQUIREMENTS:

Internet Explorer version 6 or above

Firefox version 2 or above

Safari (MACs) version 2 or above

(These browsers can be downloaded at no charge from the “Nebraska News Link” home page, bottom left box.)

TO ACCESS “SUBSCRIPTION REPORT” (IN ADMINISTRATIVE AREA OF WEBSITE):

You must have MS Office or EXCEL installed on your computer to view this Excel report. Your papers’ SUBSCRIPTION REPORT is accessible in the (limited-access) Admin Area of the website.  8/09 UPDATE: Currently, if you are using Internet Explorer as your browser, you may have trouble accessing this report. Until the problem can be fixed, you may want to use the Firefox browser instead to access the report. (Download and install Firefox at no charge from the Nebraska News Link homepage, lower left box).
