For those of you experiencing technical difficulties, we’re hoping the following can help you troubleshoot and fix issues quickly. If you’re still having trouble, click the “Help” button in the bottom right corner and someone from our team will be in touch as soon as possible. Thanks for joining us on NAB Amplify and we hope to have you up and running again shortly.

Stuck In An Endless Loop?

We are in the midst of troubleshooting an issue that appears to be affecting 1% of our users, where they get stuck in an endless loop where the system asks them to log in, they log in, go back to the page and are then asked to log in again. If you are one of these unfortunate folks, our sincerest apologies, and please know we have our best people looking into how to resolve this. In the meantime we’ve come up with a couple solutions.

  1. The easiest solution, and something that works for most, is to do the following:
    1. On Windows: Shift Control R or Control F5
    2. On Mac: Command Shift R.
  2. If that doesn’t work, try to clear your cookies.
  3. If this doesn’t work, try opening the site in an incognito window.
  4. If that doesn’t work, try the following:
    1. Go to this link and click “log in with username and password” and enter your credentials.
    2. In the same window, go to the homepage or the page you wish to access.

Thank you again for your patience as we continue troubleshooting this, and please know that all content will be available for on-demand viewing within 48 hours of airing, should you have missed any content due to the above looping.

Did You Create an Account?

How To Access Live And On-Demand Sessions

  1. Make sure you’ve signed in. (NOTE: when logged in, you should see your name in the upper right corner instead of “Sign in”)
  2. Visit the session page for the session you wish to attend.
