Support Issues and Questions



"I Need Help"

We have discovered that most issues involving tech support are really issues revolving around how to do a particular task or how to get around in the program.

Learning a New System is always challenging. Before requesting Support take a moment to watch this funny look at Learning a New System. Click here. then click the Back Button or Close the new window after watching to return to this screen.

1st Please watch the Tutorials on the right. Then read about support.

How is support handled?

If you have a support question you will be directed to MAR's help desk. They have been thoroughly trained in using CMA Plus and the common questions one may typically encounter.

If the support desk cannot figure out how to handle an issue they will direct the issue to Howard & Friends who will then contact you or the help desk to resolve any issue that you may have concerning CMA Plus & Money Magic.

What is Tech Support?

Howard & Friends defines tech support as anything surrounding the functionality of the CMA Plus program on a Windows operating system.

If it is a problem associated with the CMA Plus program not functioning properly then there is NO CHARGE. Please make sure you are at your computer and it is turned on when we schedule a time to get with you.

YOU MUST allow CMA PLUS to connect on all ports. If you tell your anti virus, internet security, or firewall to block CMA Plus we cannot help you until you resolve that issue. If you are unsure what this entails please review the documentation on connectivity issues or contact your local tech support guru for an explanation. This connectivity is much like Microsoft Windows automatic update or Norton's Live update. Howard & Friends DOES NOT collect any personal information whatsoever from your computer. NONE!!!!

If your computer cannot make an internet connection then you will need to resolve that issue prior to calling for support. Best way to tell if things are working is to connect to the internet and connect to the MLS. If you can't connect to the mls then the problem definitely revolves around your system.

Common Questions

Connectivity Issues: What does it mean to allow Norton Internet security to connect on all ports?.

  • CMA Plus has a series of Binary files that allow you to always have the latest version of the program installed. In order to update the program we need to let CMA Plus connect to our server and automatically update your program. You can always tell it to install upon exit so as not to interrupt your current work. By allowing your anti virus/Internet security to let CMA plus connect you will always be updated to the latest version.

 

My Companies Office name is different than what comes in the Branded Version.

 

Why isn't my company listed in the company files?

  • These companies have paid a fee to have a customer report done for them. Either by the company or Franchise. We can make one for your company but there is a fee for this custom implementation.

I belong to other mls's. How can I get access to them as well.

 


I want to use something other than Internet Explorer( I/E) as my default browser.

  • You must use Internet Explorer as the Browser. You can simply open up Internet Explorer when using CMA Plus
