5. Launch desired application

After validating your session, hover over the application you'd like to load and choose "Launch".

AppsAnywhere frequently asked questions

Why are there no applications on the available tab after validating my session?

After signing up to participate, you won't have access to AppsAnywhere until you receive e-mail confirmation that you've been added from library staff. This may take up to 3 business days.

Why am I getting a license error when the application launches?

AppsAnywhere relies on the same software licenses used in the Marriott Library and other computer labs. If all licenses are in use, you may have to wait for a license to become available. If you believe there is an issue with the license, please report a problem.

If I already have a version of an application installed, can I still run it through AppsAnywhere?

To avoid installation conflicts, we recommend removing any other versions of an application prior to running it through AppsAnywhere.

How do I request software?

If you'd like access to existing lab software, please submit feedback. Otherwise you can submit a new software request.
