Pro tips:
Preset your prefered browser to pick up where you left off.
Every time you exit the Online Event Guide, you will be logged out for security purposes. Save time and avoid having to log in each morning by presetting your prefered browser to pick up where you left off the previous day. Here's how:
- If you're using Safari, go to Safari, Preferences, General. Then under "Safari opens with," select "All windows from last session" in the dropdown menu.
- If you're using Chrome, click the elipisis in the upper right hand corner of your browser window and go to your Settings. Then scroll down to "On startup" and select "Continue where you left off."
- If you're using Firefox, click the gear icon in the upper right hand corner of your browser. Then go to General, Startup, and select the "Restore previous session," box.
Download the lastest version of Zoom.
A high-speed internet connection, speaker, microphone and webcam are needed to participate virtually. For the best experience, we suggest using a desktop or laptop computer and Chrome as your internet browser. If you don’t already have Chrome, you can download it for free here. While not required, you will have a better online experience if you do not use wireless internet service. A wired/ethernet connection will have a stronger signal than wireless.
We will use Zoom to broadcast the conference content. Don't have the Zoom application on your computer? No problem! You can download the latest "Zoom Client for Meetings" desktop application here. Do not use the Zoom web browser version as it has limited features. Here are a few helpful links:
ZOOM Download Center - includes browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox; mobile apps for Apple and Android platforms; and plugins for Outlook, IBM Notes, and Intel Unite.

Can I still download the conference app?
Yes! However, for the best possible experience, we recommend using the Online Event Guide on your laptop or desktop computer in lieu of the conference app, as we will be using Zoom to broadcast conference content.
To download the app, visit your Google Play Store or Apple App Store and search CrowdCompass AttendeeHub. Open the app and search AME Toronto, then click download. The event will open automatically. To log in, enter your first and last name and the email you used to register for the conference. AME will send a verification code to that email. Simply enter the code and start exploring!
