salam zaid is the recorded session to download in exe format ???
ReplyDeleteand i also clicked on the recorded session but it didn't work
Dear Enas Abulibdeh,
ReplyDeleteYes, the downloadable recorded session is in exe format. We are going to publish an edited version in a week's time in a more appropriate format. This existing one, is the one WizIQ auto-constructs from the recording.
I just checked an the recorded streaming session works fine on my Mac Air (Firefox browser), and should work fine on all types of computers, except for iPads and iPhones, which do not support FLASH yet :(
Maybe you have problems because of firewall blocking. Otherwise, try restarting your computer and then see whether you can view the recorded version (try Firefox if IE or Chrome lets you down).
Good luck and stay tuned for the edited version in a more friendly video format :)
Warm Regards,
Zaid
