Here's a quick guide to information technology resources available to students at Canisius University

...

For students, information technology help is available in two campus locations.  At the library circulation desk, ITS maintains a Help Desk branch where students can get help with various applications such as email, D2L, or printing.  The main ITS Help Desk is located in Horan-O'Donnell 016.  Services there include password assistance, wireless configuration, and help with applications provided to students by Canisius University.  

Although Canisius ITS cannot perform hardware repairs, hard drive reimaging, data recovery, or backups on student-owned computers, here's a helpful list of local businesses that will perform PC or Mac repairs (for a fee).  

Reset Your Password 

Your username password gives you entry to all your Canisius services. You should not share your password, and you should change it on a regular basis at Password Reset.  This will synchronize the password for all your Canisius accounts.  If you have a problem, please contact the ITS Help Desk.

In addition to email, as a student you have access to enterprise-level Google Apps, with cloud storage on Google Drive, and a variety of specialized sharing options for Google Docs, Sheets, Forms, Presentations, Calendars and so on.  You can find tutorial resources here, as well as in many other places on the web, to learn how to use Google Drive, Docs, YouTube, and other Google Apps available to you through your Canisius account.

D2L may also be accessed directly (outside the MyCanisius Portal) via d2l.canisius.edu.  You will need to sign in there, however.  

Where can I use a campus computer? 

For quick internet work, such as checking email or adjusting a Google presentation between classes, Internet Plazas are installed in various places around the main campus. These small groups of computers equipped with web browsers are located in most of the main academic buildings, including the new Science Hall.
