Update the browser to the latest version to ensure compatibility with Blackboard and Kaltura MyMedia.<br \/>\n2. Verify that the computer&#8217;s operating system is updated to the latest version to address potential security or connectivity issues.<br \/>\n3.

For Safari, you&#8217;ll need to turn off &#8220;Prevent cross-site tracking,&#8221; while Chrome often needs third-party cookies allowed.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6621,"featured_media":0,"parent":122898,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/108502"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6621"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=108502"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/108502\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":160502,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/108502\/revisions\/160502"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/122898"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=108502"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
