Did they flush the applications on file? Since the new web site launched, I no longer see a Pilot or First Officer posting, and I keep getting a failed log in when I want to view apps submited or update profile?

Its frustrating because I can't update my app to reflect my current status. Wondering how I can find out if they've tried to contact me and how I can update my status with them. Any help is appreciated....
I would call HR and explain your situation... That also puts you back on the radar...

I am excited/nervous to be starting class soon, and I wonder if anyone has any recommended study strategies. I have electronic copies of everything, and the pilot welcome guide, which recommends of course studying flows, memory items, limitations, and systems in a specified order. I had difficulty viewing the systems presentations on my Mac, but the training center folks recommended Keynote, but I am wondering if anyone has had the same issue and Keynote fixed it (before I spend the money)? This is not my first 121 gig, just rusty and want to really focus my pre-study on what really is important based on everyone's personal experience and 20/20 hindsight. Thanks as always!

Congrats!
Memory items/limitations, flows, controls and indicators, systems (CBT), in that order.

Only the BOLD limitations, and memory items (just the order, not verbatim). Then flows...

What exactly is the problem? I assume you are using Power Point, if so, is there no audio? They won't play at all? Without knowing your issue I'd recommend to first try copying all the contents of the CBT folder to your hard drive and open them from there, not from the disc.

Random but anyone else not have the Tab "add/change withholdings" on the ESS website under pay. We are supposed to be able to edit our withholding there but the option is gone. Im way overpaying in taxes and want to change it rather than get a huge return.

I assume I have to call someone in HR?

You can always go to office.microsoft.com and choose the home option, "Try for free" it gives you a 30 day trial option for Microsoft Office for Mac.

You won't need it for more than 30 days and it supports native Powerpoint slides.

I tried Keynote and it doesn't work very well.

An alternative is if you have an iPad, to use the Powerpoint App on the iPad to view the system presentations, you can view for free forever, you only need an Office account to modify or create powerpoint slides.

Try the apache open office app (free). You still won't have the audio but the slides will be fine.

Call the hr hotline. If I remember correctly they sent a form you need to fill out to change the election. I did it a while ago and it was pretty painless.
