Bookmark these pages, they run independently of everything else. If your fsu id is abc08z and your fsusn is XY7654321, then your login will be abc08z and your password abc4321. You can find your FSUsn here (If your fsu id has only two initials, like ab08z and your fsusn is XY7654321, then your login will be ab08z and your password ab4321.)

FAQ on mapleTA. There are several things that can cause confusion about the way mapleTA shows the correct answers.

Our homework problems generate lots of computation, sometimes the server is slow to present the problem. Sometimes it stops and needs to be given a kickstart, do not count on the server being available at the last minute.

READ THIS

Althought the homework server will allow you to complete you work a little later than 5PM, it is a fickle machine. Homework is due at 5pm, it you wait longer and the server doesn't like you you are out of luck. (And yes it will be your fault.)

If for some reason the server is not working, immediately email bellenot with a careful description of your problem. Include exactly where the error occurred and what the error message was. Do not assume that someone else also has the same problem or error.
