Login Problems
If you reach the login page but cannot sign in:
- Verify that your staff record has:
- A unique username
- The correct staff permissions
- If confirmed, select Reset Password to send a reset link to the email address in your staff record.
If you are the account owner, the Reset Password email will not work.
- Contact iClassPro Support by phone.
- Support will verify your identity and help restore account access.
Connection Issues
iClassPro requires continuous data communication between your computer and iClassPro’s servers. If access is slow or unreliable:
- Run an internet speed test to confirm your connection meets or exceeds iClassPro’s recommended upload/download speeds.
- Use a wired (Ethernet) connection if possible; wireless connections may experience interruptions.
- Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to check for:
- Packet loss due to network congestion
- Router data limits restricting usage for specific websites
Maintenance Message
Scheduled maintenance may cause temporary downtime.
- Maintenance is planned for off-peak hours to minimize disruption.
- Notifications are posted on:
- The login page banner
- iClassPro social media
- The Status Page
If you see a maintenance message, access should resume automatically once updates are complete.
“Account Does Not Exist” Error
If you see “Account Does Not Exist”:
- Verify that your account name or ID is spelled correctly.
- If correct but still inaccessible, check the Status Page for active incidents.
Only the Navigation Toolbar Loads (Firefox 66+)
If the screen loads only the blue toolbar and no content, this is caused by Firefox’s Content Blocking feature.
To resolve:
- Look for a shield icon to the left of the URL bar.
- Select the menu button (three lines in the upper-right corner).
- Choose Content Blocking to view current settings.
- If the setting shows Strict or Custom, change it to Standard.
- Refresh iClassPro to reload the page.
If Standard is already selected but the issue continues:
- Click the Shield icon in the URL bar.
- In the “Content Blocking” section, choose Turn Off Blocking for This Site.
Important Notes:
- If you see “Turn Off Blocking Temporarily”, Firefox is in Private Browsing Mode.
- To disable blocking permanently for iClassPro:
- Exit Private Browsing.
- Reopen Firefox normally.
- Return to iClassPro and select Turn Off Blocking for This Site.

How can I tell if iClassPro is down?

What should I do if I cannot reset my password?
