DO I NEED TO USE A WINDOWS PC OR
INTERNET EXPLORER?
• Not at all - Macs are welcome to access Windows Live Hotmail
via either Firefox or Safari. Microsoft supports the major
browsers across a variety of operating system platforms.
• Internet Explorer from 8.0 down to 5.5 versions, the leading
versions of Firefox (cross platform) and Safari (cross platform)
are supported as well as Opera.
• Basically any browser supported by MSN or Windows Live in
general is supported for Windows Live.
• Microsoft also does browser detection to tune the experience
the end user receives based on the browser's capabilities.
WHAT IS eResources?
• eResources provides a means for you to access your
administrative records via the web.
• You can register for course sections, make payments, look
at your academic history, manage your JJC computer
account and access information about many of the other

all the functions available to you.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
eResources AND E-MAIL?
• You are given two accounts when you apply for
admissions and / or sign up for a college credit course.
Though they are separate, you will only have ONE
username and ONE password for both.
• Your e-mail account gives you access to any e-mail
messages you might receive from your instructors, fellow
students or JJC. The account is created overnight.
• Your eResources account enables you to access your
student records via the Web as well as register and pay for
your classes.
WHAT'S MY eResources LOGIN, AND HOW
DO I GET A PASSWORD?
• You have one JJC username and one JJC
password. Visit the password help page to look up
