Reported problem: PowerSpeak slow to load

Hello MTDA students and local sites.

We are getting reports from a handful of schools that they are having issues with loading PowerSpeak (high school Latin, German, French and Spanish).  The issue manifests itself either a very slow load of PowerSpeak, or, a spinning wheel and no access to the curriculum.

One possible solution is making sure that you have the most recent version of Java, which updates frequent.  Please be sure that you update when asked to by Java itself, or, download the latest version here:

http://get.java.com


UPDATE: This issue has been resolved.  Please contact Jason ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) if you continue to experience problems.
