ITServices
Queen's UniversityITServices Supported Software
Information Technology Services provides five levels of software support to the Queen's community:
Applications that are supported by ITServices are assigned one of these support levels, regardless of whether the application is made available from Ida, in the public computing sites, through the Campus Computer Store, or by other means. Any application not explicitly assigned a support level will have a level of Referral.
First consideration for support will be decided upon by the operating system of the computer. If the operating system on the machine falls under the Expired category, all applications on the machine will default to the Referral category.
Operating System Information
ITServices encourages members of the Queen’s Community to ensure that they have a current, supported, operating system at all times. Feel free to contact the ITServices Support Centre for information on supported Operating Systems.
Microsoft released Windows 8 on October 26th, 2012. As we continue to test Microsoft’s newest operating system and its compatibility with Queen’s-supported applications, ITServices will provide "best effort" troubleshooting and support. However, at this time ITServices cannot guarantee that all Queen’s-supported systems and applications will function trouble-free in Windows 8.

Request Change to the Supported Software List:
- Users may request that applications be added to the support product list by submitting a request using the Supported Software Request Form http://www.queensu.ca/its/apps/forms/itsc/software_request/software_request.php
- Presently the committee that reviews software applications for support has not convened but will do so in the immediate future. At such time any requests via the Support Software Request Form will be reviewed.
