I had trouble on Craftsy last year with IE. It's a problem with their end not being programmed for all browsers. Use Chrome and you will be fine.

I know. I use Chrome too. But the post I was quoting said "google tv" and it referenced roku (which works on a tv) so that made me think it has something to do with an actual tv? I don't watch long video on my computer, which is where the Chrome browser is. If I can't find a way to watch on my tv I won't bother buying more classes.

You could always hook your laptop (assuming you have one) to the tv. T'is easy. :-)

There have been ads for free Craftsy classes on board. I am running XP on my computer so I can't use their website.

When I had XP I used their website to take some classes. I did have to change from Windows Explorer to Chrome but then it worked just fine.

Our laptops are all old and I don't think they have an hdmi port. I ordered a long hdmi cable that should reach from the desktop to the tv. I wouldn't leave it hooked up all the time but when I want to watch a craftsy video I could hook it up easily enough. I'm just not sure if my tv has an unused hdmi port. If not I'll have to swap out the one on the roku box.

I have had XP and have never had problems with their classes. I now have 7 Pro but wanted you to know XPERIA was not an issue. I always watch for sales and absolutely LOVE Craftsy!,,,

I like them very much and buy them on sale. I do think that nothing beats an inperson cloass unless it's a amateur

For the most part I like the classes I've purchased. I like being able to watch the same step over and over and over. Sometimes a class just doesn't cover steps I thought it would, and the instructor isn't helpful when I ask.
