Down Day Weekend - Sunday, January 30, 2022


Due to next weekend being a grading weekend (QT2), we will be performing the February work THIS weekend. 

The first Sunday of EACH month is reserved for the IT Department to perform disruptive (but necessary) maintenance on our networks systems.  With 24/7 access to online resources for our staff and students, we have reserved the FIRST Sunday of each month to perform this work.

Please note Sunday there will likely be disruption to various systems that may impact your access to: TTSD phone system, network resources (wifi), internet filter and Mac/iPad "Self Service"


iOS and MacOS Updates Approved for TTSD Devices


Updates for iPad iOS and Mac operating systems come out regularly towards the end of the calendar year.  TTSD Technicians test the new versions during the month of January, looking for any conflicts with TTSD software.  We have completed this test and found nothing significant to delay the updates for all TTSD staff and students.


We highly recommend all staff and students update their iPad to version 15.
Please see this KB Article for step by step:

 

The MacOS update to Monterey, version 12, for your laptops is optional.:

Highlights of each new version:
