• Message on the COVID-19 situation

    In recent weeks, performance has been somewhat unstable in Adobe Connect. We sincerely hope that it will return to normal in the near future, but in the meantime we would like to share some recommendations on how to adapt to the challenges that have been posed during this time.

  • Finding your meeting rooms

    1. Log in to Adobe Connect using this link: fabo.adobeconnect.com.
    2. Use the username and password provided to your unit/workplace.
    3. Enter.
    4. You are now in the home page of Adobe Connect.
    5. From here, you can find the rooms accredited to your profile or create a new room. 


    Adobe Connect Login

    • CREATING A MEETING ROOM

      To enter a meeting room:

      Click or enter the URL for the desired meeting room in the Adobe Connect app. Type your Adobe Connect login and password, and then click 'Enter Room'. You can also enter a meeting room accredited to your profile, through Adobe Connect's online home page.


      To create a new meeting room: 

      1. From the home page in Adobe Connect online, click on 'Meeting' and then "New Meeting".
      2. Fill in the information needed in the following form.
      3. Give the meeting room a unique name, and a meaningful URL (the first part of the URL is predefined, but you can choose the last bit).
      4. Consider how you will give access to your meeting room. For most purposes the default setting is the preferred setting, so if you are unsure, just choose that. The setting can always be changed later.
      5. ALWAYS keep the default settings regarding 'Audio Conference', namely "Do not include any audio conference with this meeting".
      6. Click 'Finish'. 

      Please note: Meeting rooms are always based on a template, which means they are created with a set of predefined layouts. You can always customise or delete these layouts, or insert new ones. 

      • Invite Participants

        As a host, you have two options on how to invite participants to your webinar. Learn how in the video below.


        When you compose an email to invite participants, we propose that you include the following information:

        1. Information on what the webinar regards. 
        2. The link to the meeting room.
        3. Date and time slot (including time zone). 
        4. A link to Adobe Connect: Guide for Participants

        • Connect Microphones

          Watch this short video tutorial to learn how to connect your own audio.


          Once you are set up with your own audio, this video teaches you how to grant speaking rights to your participants. 


          NB: If there is not a check mark to the left of 'Microphone Rights For Participants', only the hosts will be able to speak. 

          • Troubleshooting Audio

            Microphone doesn't work

            First, when entering Adobe Connect, make sure to connect your microphone beforehand.

            Next, consider the following options:

            1. Did you do the Audio Setup Wizard?
            2. Is the microphone muted manually? 
            3. Has the right microphone been chosen from the microphone drop-down menu? Check the below picture to see where you find it.

            If all else fails, the quickest fix is to log out and come back in (keeping the headset plugged in).

            If the participant continuously has issues with Adobe Connect you can guide them to the trouble shooting page, which you will find here

                You can pause your recording during the webinar, by clicking the recording icon in the top right corner and then clicking 'Pause'/'Resume'.
