Login Troubleshooting

Q1: When I try to login I get a “Login failed…” message.

This happens because you are typing in an incorrect email address or/and password.

Solution

Retype the correct username and password with the right credentials.

*Tip:

- Type in the password on a word document (or Notepad) and do a copy/paste just to make sure everything is OK.

Q2: When I try to login, I am taken back to the same page with my password erased.

Solution

Disable the pop-up blocker or set ‘*.personable.com’ as a safe site on the Internet options.

- To disable the pop-up blocker:

  • Go to Tools, select Internet Options, then click on Privacy tab
  • In Internet Explorer 7.0, uncheck ‘Turn on pop-up blocker’
  • Internet Explorer 6.0, uncheck ‘Block pop-ups’

- To set ‘*.personable.com’ as a safe site:

  • Go to Tools, select Internet Options, then click on Privacy tab
  • Click Setting under ‘Turn on pop-up blocker’ in Internet Explorer 7.0 or ‘Block pop-ups’ in Internet 6.0
  • Type ‘*.personable.com’ to "Address of Website to allow"
  • Click Add button.

Q3: When I login, all I see is a white background.

Solution

Log in with the demo account (login: accountant@cpa.com,password: smiles)

- If you are able to login with demo account, then try logging in with your account

- If you are still experiencing the white background, the Remote Desktop feature on the computer maybe being blocked, it may be due to a firewall or a Proxy server, please call your IT department or ISP(internet service provider) and ask them to open the TCP port 3389.

Q4: When I login, all I see is a blue background.

Please call Personable Tech Support at (714)430-6944 to diagnose the issue on the server side.

Q5: When I login, I get a message that says ‘ActiveX is not properly installed…’ (Any message that says ActiveX is not installed).

Solution

You need to have Admin privileges to install the ActiveX.

- If there is a gray or yellow bar near the top:

  • Right click on the gray or yellow bar
  • ‘Install ActiveX…’

- If there is no gray or yellow bar near the top: Add ‘http://*.personable.com’ to the Trusted Sites zone:

  • In Internet Explorer, go to ‘Tools’, select Internet Options, then click on Security tab
  • Click the ‘Trusted Sites’ icon, then click on the ‘Sites’ button.
  • Under Add this Website to the Zone, type in ‘http://*.personable.com’
  • Uncheck the ‘Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone’
  • Click the ‘Add’ button and then click ‘OK’ or ‘close’ to exit the window.
  • Then try to login again.

- If you are still unable to install the ActiveX, this means you do not have enough privilege to install such Add-Ons. Have someone with Administrator privilege install the ActiveX for you.

Q6: When I login, I am getting an ‘Internet Explorer Error’ window message and I can only click ‘Send’ or ‘Don’t Send’.

This is due to a ghost printer issue.

Solution

  • Go to Control Panel
  • Open up Simplify Printing Client (viewable in Classic view)
  • Move all the printers into the Denied printers list except for the printer that he/she will use on Personable.
  • Click ‘OK’.

Solution
