Vista @ NCSU

Announcements

Vista Offline 12/20 through 1/3: As a result of an ongoing issue with Blackboard Vista's garbage collection mechanism, we are going to take Vista offline between December 20, 2009 and January 3, 2010. Click here for more details.
Attention Mac Users: Since an update to Java on the Mac this Summer, the "My Computer" icon in the File Browser has been replaced by a white box with a red X. While we wait for a working Java update to fix the issue, Mac users can click to the right of the white box to use the File Browser feature as normal. [Last Updated 10/13/2009]
Vista Account Creation Delays: For new users having trouble logging into Vista, all new accounts are taking up to 48 hours to filter down into Vista. A timing delay was caused with the updates from the Unity account system, extending the waiting period an additional day. We're working to correct the timing to minimize all delays as much as possible. [Last Updated 09/03/2009]
