Firefox 4 and AMCAS Application Work Around

[thomasfx10]

Hey Firefox 4 users. You might have had an issue logging into your AMCAS application.

Here is a workaround ... Go to Tools/Addons Search for "User Agent Switcher" to fool AMCAS into thinking you have IE8, allowing you to have access.

Once installed ... Restart Firefox and then go to Tools and Switch to IE8.

It appears to be working so far ...

Cheers!

Thanks! I was wondering about this. I am a Chrome user and so I got the browser incompatibility message when I tried to log on the AMCAS today. Good to know that Firefox works.

I've been using that; it fools it very well.

I just downloaded the older version of Firefox. It's worth it to me to use the older version until I'm done with the AMCAS. Nothing wrong with the older version--you were using it until a few weeks ago!!
