Troubleshooting • If pages seem slow to open – The application seems to run faster if you open a new browser each time you access it. • If you cannot see the entire worksheet, you may not have your browser window maximized. Double click on the top bar or click the screen size icon to maximize the worksheet. • Internet Explorer 8 is not compatible with PTrac. Many IE8 users will download Firefox to use the application. • Firefox users may have to clear their cookies and reopen the browser if the PTrac does not open.
