In order to use phpScheduleIt, you must first register. If you have already registered, then you must log in before using the system. At the top of each page (except for the registration and log in pages) you will see a welcome message, today's date, and a few links -- a "Log Out" link and a "My Control Panel" link underneath the welcome message, and a "Help Me" link under the date.
If a previous user is displayed in the welcome message, click "Log Out" to clear out any cookies they were using and log in as yourself. Clicking the "My Control Panel" link will take you to "My Control Panel", your "home page" for the scheduler. Clicking the "Help Me" link brings a pop-up help window. Clicking the "Email Admin" link will open a new mail addressed to the system's administrator.
Warning: If you have Norton Personal Firewall running while using phpScheduleIt, you may encounter problems. Please disable Norton Personal Firewall while using phpScheduleIt and enable it after you are done.

If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it and have a new one emailed to you. To do this, navigate to the login page and click the "I Forgot My Password" link underneath the login form.
