I love technical support!

The instructions for inviting Friends can be found in the Quick Start Guide mentioned in the article. Just follow the instructions to "Click here," in the body of the article.

I hope this helps.

I've been trying to open the quick start guide for the past couple days (using different computers on different networks just to make sure).  I either receive an error message or it times out.  Is there any other way to get the guide?  Is anyone else having trouble opening this?  I really want to learn the new network because I've been unsuccessful trying to nagivate on my own!  Thanks!

Hi Karyninva -

Have you become a fan of the Network Support Community?  If not, I think you need to "Become a Fan" before being able to open documents on that community.   Try going to:  network.bestfriends.org/.../default.aspx

Then on the right rail - find the box that says Get Involved - Save Lives - under that box you will see "Become a Fan"... let me know if you can open the "Quick Start Guide" after you have become a Fan.

It's likely that if you are getting an error opening the file, you may not have the latest version of adobe reader.  You can download it at: http://get.adobe.com/reader/.  

It worked for me!

Thanks, Lavanya.  I actually had the right Adobe version BUT I also downloaded IE8 and I can finally download the guide.  After installing IE8, I realized that I was missing 1/2 of the new network screen.  Previously, I couldn't see anything in the right frame on the home page.  Now things are making a little more sense to me!  Homework for the next couple of nights is to take a look at the guide & have a little fun navigating the new network.

Thanks for the help!
