Respondus offers a variety of resources for users. The Knowledge Base provides answers to frequently asked questions. The User Guides provide detailed information on all aspects of the software, whereas the Quick Start Guides are a good reference for new users. On-line help is available from within the Respondus and StudyMate Author applications (press the F1 key for context-sensitive help or select Help from the menu bar to choose a topic). Demonstration and training movies can be viewed from the Respondus Demo Library. Software patches may also be available for downloading.

Ticket-Based Support
If you have exhausted the above resources and still cannot resolve your problem, a ticket-based help system is available. Respondus staff will try to provide a response to your help ticket within 24 hours of submission, excluding weekends and U.S. holidays. However, please understand that limited resources have been dedicated to providing support for free products, such as Respondus LE.

• Name of product (Respondus, Respondus LockDown Browser, Studymate Author)
• Version of product (from the menu bar, select Help>About).
• The Course Management System (ANGEL, Blackboard, Desire2Learn, eCollege, WebCT, etc.) being used with the software
• Computer Platform (Windows Vista, XP Pro, XP, 2000, ME, NT)

If the problem relates to connecting to a Course Management System, include which version of the CMS you are using. It may also be necessary to provide the information our support staff will need to connect to your online course (URL, User Name, Password, Course name). But first review the security policy for your institution since it may limit what account information can be sent to a third party.

If the problem relates to downloading a publisher test bank, please include all information that was provided by the publisher including the textbook title, file code, and password.
