  • What browsers does EDGT support?

    EDGT supports popular browsers such as:

    Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. However, if you are using an older version of these browsers, you may experience some difficulties, or the tutorial pages may not display correctly. To avoid this problem, we recommend you use the browser check utility featured on this page.

  • What are the minimum system requirements?

    Make sure you are meeting our system requirements as outlined below:

    If you are using a Mac, we recommend Safari (which comes with the Mac), or Chrome which can be downloaded free of charge from www.mozilla.org.

    If you are a PC user, our website requires that you use Internet Explorer version 6.0 or higher, a minimum screen resolution of 800x600, pop-up windows and cookies enabled, and the Content Advisor in Internet Explorer disabled while you are using the EDGT website.

    Steps for installing and using Internet Explorer 9.0 or higher (for PC users) to access the EDGT website:

    1. If you currently have open a browser other than Internet Explorer, minimize it. Then launch Internet Explorer (whichever version is currently on your computer) by double-clicking the Internet Explorer icon on your desktop.
    2. Click on Help on the browser's menu, and then click About Internet Explorer in order to see which version of Internet Explorer you have.
    3. If your version of Internet Explorer is NOT 6.0 or higher, then download the latest version of Internet Explorer from Microsoft's website:
    4. Go to the Microsoft website at www.microsoft.com.
    5. Click Downloads on the menu bar.
    6. In the Windows column, click Internet Explorer.
    7. The Internet Explorer web page will appear. Follow the instructions there to download the version of Internet Explorer that is appropriate for your operating system. This download is free of charge.
    8. If you need the latest Flash player, you can download it free of charge. To download it, go to the Adobe home page at www.adobe.com. Then click Adobe Flash Player under where you see Downloads. At the Adobe Flash Player page, you can unclick the box next to Yes, install McAfee Security Scan Plus since this is not needed for the EDGT website. Then click the Download Now button. Downloading is a one-time activity that only takes a few minutes.

    Instructions for the Internet Explorer browser - Enabling cookies for EDGT:

    Instructions to enable cookies in Internet Explorer depend on the version of Internet Explorer that you are using. There is a web page on the Internet that describes the instructions to enable cookies for the various versions of Internet Explorer. Follow those instructions, except where it says to type in timeanddate.com for the Address of website, type in edgt.com instead. The link to the web page is: http://www.timeanddate.com/custom/cookiesie.html

    On the browser's menu (at the top of the browser's window) click Tools, then click Options, then click the Privacy icon at the top of the Options window, then click the Exceptions... button for cookies, then type in edgt.com for the "Address of website:", then click the Allow button, then click the Close button.

  • Does EDGT support tablets and mobile devices?

    Currently, we do not officially support tablets and mobile devices. EDGT was originally designed for desktop browsers. Unofficially, however, tablets such as iPad, and mobile devices such as iPhone seem to run EDGT without issues. If you are experiencing difficulties using a particular tablet or mobile device, contact technical support and we will try our best to help solve your problem but it may be outside the scope of our original design.
