The Caveats, and How to Get Support, Make Suggestions
No pain, no gain. We always hope that changes will go completely smoothly, but we have learned to expect glitches, and the lesson is confirmed with this launch.
If you run into problems with your orders or downloads, please complete this form and provide as much information as you can. Our customer support team will respond as quickly as possible--and remember that we, too, are new to the website.
If you have suggestions for improvements or need to report a glitch/error, please use this form. The forms help us gather the information we need to respond to your suggestions and corrections.
The FAQs
Will customers be able to keep their accounts and passwords? Yes
Will the main log-in address remain the same? Yes
Will I be able to access my digital files? Yes. See note below.
How do I log into my account from my phone or iPad?
- Some devices can see "Account" in the top right corner of the screen. Click "Account" to log in.
- Other devices will see a three-line drop-down menu underneath their cart. Click the menu, and then "Account"--the last option on the drop-down.
- If you are using an iPad, you can see "Account" if you hold the iPad horizontally, or you can use the drop-down menu if you don't see "Account" on the home screen.
Known Hiccups We Are Working On
When you want to purchase a product, you need to click the format (hardback, paperback, or PDF) AND the condition (New or Scratch & Dent). PDFs are always "New". If Scratch and Dent is not available it will either not show up as an option or it will be grayed out. The error message on this is something like "Please resolve issues...". If you can't put an item in your cart, please make sure you have checked an option in both Format and Condition.

Age and Grade levels on the left sidebar are out of order. (January 10)
