AppsAnywhere  Installation and Support Guide

Install lab software on a personal Windows computer using the instructions below.

1. Sign up for access (available to students only)

• Sign up if you are a student and would like to participate in the pilot program.
• You will be notified once you have been added (within 3 business days).

2. Log in to the website

• After your account is set up, go to appsanywhere.utah.edu 
• Log in with your uNID and password.

3. Install the AppsAnywhere client

• If it is your first time using AppsAnywhere, select that option: "It's my first time using AppsAnywhere on this device. Let's go"
• Follow the on-screen instructions to install AppsAnywhere.

4. Validate your session

• When the website attempts to validate your session, allow your web browser to open the link with AppsAnywhere.
• The installation will complete when you first validate.

Note: This will look a little different depending on your web browser.

5. Launch desired application

• After validating your session, hover over the application you'd like to load and choose "Launch".
• Initial loading time depends on the size of the application and the speed of your network. 
• In the future, you can launch a loaded application either:

AppsAnywhere frequently asked questions

Why are there no applications on the available tab after validating my session?

• After signing up to participate, you won't have access to AppsAnywhere until you receive e-mail confirmation that you've been added from library staff. This may take up to 3 business days.

Why am I getting a license error when the application launches?

• AppsAnywhere relies on the same software licenses used in the Marriott Library and other computer labs. If all licenses are in use, you may have to wait for a license to become available.
• If you believe there is an issue with the license, please report a problem.

If I already have a version of an application installed, can I still run it through AppsAnywhere?

• To avoid installation conflicts, we recommend removing any other versions of an application prior to running it through AppsAnywhere.

How do I request software?

• If you'd like access to existing lab software, please submit feedback. Otherwise you can submit a new software request.

How do I get assistance or report problems?

• We offer support during Marriott Library open hours at 801-581-4808 or at the Knowledge Commons desk on Level 2.
