Programs closing when Smartboard is touched - why?

When I use my Smartboard in the morning, often I have to restart the computer because if I open up a few programs (PowerPoint, Notebook, email, etc.) and touch the Smartboard to manipulate something, it automatically closes the program. I cannot figure out why it is doing this.  All my Notebook software, including drivers, is up to date. The only bright spot is that the program I touch will usually ask "Do you want to save?" before it closes and I can walk over to my computer and prevent it…See More

Review game that jumps to different pages - how?

Somehow I have a file that looks like a really great way to review before a test.  The first page features icons that are numbered and when you click on the number, it automatically opens up that particular page. On the page is a review question.  I went through Level 2 training but I don't recall learning how to do this.  The file I'm looking at has 25 small icons and each one immediately links to the corresponding page.  Very cool.  Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to do…See More

Sharing Notebook files with someone using Promethean

I've been sharing ideas with a teacher in another state and now we would like to share some files. She will have a Promethean board in the fall and I would like to send her my Notebook files on a flashdrive. Of course, my main concern is compatability.  Will she be able to convert the Notebook files to the software used by Promethean?  Any advice?Thanks!Anne V. See More
