Please refrain from adjusting the cabling or equipment inside the instructor’s station rack. Changes to these configurations can creade cascading effects that impact other instructors and classrooms, and may also make it harder for support staff to resolve the original issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To reach the CALS Classroom Support Team, email CALS_Facil@help.ncsu.edu, call the Help Line at (919) 515-6777, extension2, or submit a “Get Help” form through the CALS IT Service Portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019ve recently updated your Unity password<\/strong>, your Apple computer may not automatically recognize the change. If your Mac seems \u201cstuck\u201d on your old password, follow these steps to manually sync it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your Mac should now be synced with your updated Unity password and ready for use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Need help? If you run into any issues, reach out to calsit-help@ncsu.edu for assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To efficiently manage permissions for CALS IT devices and resources, please provide timely notification prior to the arrival of new members to your department or unit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n New Users: <\/strong>Complete the New User Request Form<\/a> to provide CALS IT with vital details, including the start date, office location and necessary application licenses or access requirements. This information greatly facilitates the onboarding process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Departing Users:<\/strong> It is equally important to promptly inform CALS IT of any staff or faculty departures. Completing the Disable User Request Form<\/a> ensures swift removal of access for departing members, maintaining security and efficiency within our IT infrastructure. Timely completion of these forms helps CALS IT keep devices and resources secure and accessible for your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you encounter an email that raises doubts or appears suspicious, it’s essential to verify the sender’s email address to confirm its legitimacy. If you receive an email from a sender you recognize, but it still seems questionable, consider sending a separate email to that individual to confirm if the message is legitimate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are certain the email is a spam or phishing attempt, take immediate action by marking it as such. This helps protect both yourself and others from potential online threats. Staying vigilant and verifying suspicious emails is key to keeping your accounts and data secure.
