Please, help! I am not able to access the Institute or Seminary Manuals online for my daily study. It just started a on Sunday 08/09/15.
Here are the steps I am taking:
1 - Go to LDS.ORG
2 - Click - Scripture Study
3 - Click - Education
4 - Seminaries and Institute, using the link below do not work.

Re: Not able to access the Institute or Seminary manuals
It seems to work for me – does it work for you now? It's possible it was a temporary error.
What web browser are you using? Have you tried using a different web browser?
Have you tried using a different computer or using a different wireless network?

I don't know what has happened, but it is working now. It didn't work at all yesterday until now. Probably there was a problem with the link? Thanks for the reply.

Re: Not able to access the Institute or Seminary manuals
More likely a problem with a particular server (lds.org is made up of many servers) and it was resolved when everyone came into work.

Re: Link to Institute/Seminary manuals not working
I would like to inform that once again, the links are working. It might sound silly, but I could not access it all day Sunday, and had the same problem yesterday morning.
Just like yesterday, the links started working again after I posted the problem online.
Thank you.

Re: Link to Institute/Seminary manuals not working
I have the same problem every Sunday afternoon and evening with FamilySearch. The Hint service frequently says it is unavailable, and the Source Linker requires frequent refreshes.
