Summary
This article features various USNH-supported software applications and how to use them.
Content
Enterprise Technology & Services and various academic departments have purchased several software packages for use by the entire campus or collaborate together on purchases of licenses. These applications are being used by faculty and students to enhance existing courses through the use of computer technology.
Many of these applications are available from central servers run by IT staff. The software can be used by any person on the campus whose computer meets the specifications for the particular application. In addition, you must have a properly configured campus network connection to your computer. Wired Ethernet connections on campus as well as the "eduroam" wireless network meet this requirement.
The "Open" network and off-campus access to the Internet are not sufficient to access and use most of these programs. For wireless, please switch to the "eduroam" network instead. If you are off-campus, you must connect via the USNH network VPN. Off-campus connections also require a suitably fast Internet connection such as DSL or cable modem. If you have questions about network connections, please contact the Technology Help Desk.
Note: See Special Instructions for Macintosh Users below.

Special Instructions for Macintosh Users
MacOS users can use a virtual environment such as Parallels Desktop , VMWare Fusion , or VirtualBox to run Windows on their Macintosh systems or you can set up a dual-boot environment via BootCamp .
Whichever method you choose, a license for the Windows operating system is required. You can purchase a Windows license directly from Microsoft's official website:
If you want to buy any other version of Windows or do not have a Windows installation disc or .iso disk image at all, please visit Microsoft Online Store or other online retailers.
Note: The Parallels Desktop option depends in part on what type of processor your MacOS laptop is running. Before purchasing Parallels Desktop for MacOS, please see their knowledge article - Does Windows come with my purchase of Parallels Desktop for Mac? .
