Connect to a remote desktop

The computers at the computer lab often got the most recent version of the IMT software already installed and ready to use. These computers can also be accessed remotely. See our Guide to IMT Remote desktop access.

Connect to VPN

A Virtual Private Network is used to connect to another network from home, in this case NTNUs network. This is useful when you have to use services or webpages that are only available on campus. For instructions on how to use VPN see NTNU's guide on VPN.

Create a virtual machine

The use of virtual machines are often necessary when a program is designed for only one OS, and that's not the one you have. We have made step by step tutorial guiding you through the whole process at Installing a virtual machine.

Instabart

Instabart er en side for deg som er student i bartebyen. Siden inneholder direktelenker til ulike NTNU-tjenester. Noen av dem vil du trenge nesten daglig, andre vil være superpraktiske en gang iblant - vi anbartfaler at du sjekker ut alle.

Install Windows on a Mac

The Guru service (Gurutjenesten) is a support service for students and employees at the Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (IE), but they will do their best to help other students as well . They have made some great guides on this topic:

Printers

To install the NTNU printers is usually only necessary once. Information about the student allowance for printing and prices for printing and copying for students can be found here. Tutorials are provided by NTNU Innsida.

Your nearest printer can be found via MazeMap. Find the building you are in and search for "Åpen tilgjengelig skriver" and you will see which printers are located nearby.

Recover overwritten/changed/deleted files from your home directory

The IT helpdesk has made an article on how to recover old files (up to 10 weeks) from your storage area at NTNU. This is a really nice feature, and can save you a lot of work if you are unlucky.
