Blackboard-Compatible Web Browsers

It is important that you use a modern, supported Web browser to access online courses in Blackboard.

1. You can verify your own Web browser configuration is supported by running the Bb Browser Checker and checking the list of Blackboard's supported Web browsers and operating systems.
2. If you have issues with Blackboard features and are using a supported browser, try using an alternative Web browser from the the list of Blackboard's supported Web browsers and operating systems.

Detailed Web browser information is available at http://it.unh.edu/bbbrowser.
