Outlook (desktop icon – ONLY applies to Administrators & people with machines dedicated to them – mandatory profile wipes it out):
Outlook is installed on most PCs in the district that have Microsoft Office loaded. (Office 97, 2000 etc.) It is only usable from the desktop on Windows 2000 machines. To use Outlook, log onto Windows 2000 using your user name and password, and then simply launch the program from the Desktop Icon, Start menu, or Office Toolbar. All other computers (Including Macintosh and those PCs running Windows 98 and earlier) MUST use the OWA method as described below.
Outlook Web Access:
OWA can be accessed via any Internet connected computer. The easiest way to get to OWA is by clicking on the link on the PCPS homepage located on the left side of the page. If the Portsmouth City Public Schools homepage is down or if you want to go straight to OWA without visiting the PCPS homepage, enter the following in the address bar of your browser:
(don’t forget the ‘s’ in https).
OWA can be accessed from computers inside or outside the school division.
*Note: If you are accessing OWA for the first time, you will get a “Security Alert” message stating the “Certificate” is not trusted. To keep this from happening every time, please follow instructions in the E-mail entitled “PCPS Certificate for OWA”. This will be sent via e-mail to all users.
Answer YES to proceed past the “Security Alert”.
You will be prompted to enter your PCPS Windows 2000 network Username and Password.
