Downloading the slides

MDWtheTall — Mon, 09 Oct 2023 08:58:54 GMT

Anyone have any suggestions on downloading the slides from this year's Security Congress. The online site shows all of the presentations as "locked", and the phone app seems to only send one slide at a time to email.

Any help would be appreciated.

I just sent an email to tech support about this. Hoping they will answer soon.

The slides to all presentations can be downloaded by going into the (ISC)2 2018 Congress App. On the bottom right corner you will see an icon to "Get Slides." I would suggest being on Wi-Fi to download..

I've done that, how do I get them from my mobile device to a PC though, that's the question.

A few ways. I'm on the Android platform, but here goes:

1) Use Bluetooth file transfer after you turn on feature from Bluetooth icon from the task bar.

2) Connect a usb cable between your PC and Phone, (turn phone to file transfer mode). Then just open and copy as any other folder.

I've been scouring my file structure looking for the right folder. I'm on Android as well. Have you had any luck finding it @dfcooktx?

tech support just sent me an email telling me how to do it from the web. They did not give instructions for getting it from your phone to a PC. You will have to have your log in code that you used for the app and go to https://www.eventscribe.com/2018/ISC2/index.asp?launcher=1 (the ISC2 2018 website link) and from there you can view all the sessions, open the ones that have slides, and save them from there. Not as fast, but it works.

I also can not find the slides on my phone

I have tried that, but all of the slides show a lock on the icon to download.

Perhaps I can help. If you are looking for the slides to download off the web/PC, please go to - https://www.eventscribe.com/2018/ISC2/You'll need to log in with your app credentials (so please have them on you). Once there, best thing to do is click on "Full Schedule" at the bottom. Click on a session and it will take you to the individual session. In the session description, you'll find at the bottom a button that says "slides". If the "Slides" button isn't there, that means either we haven't received the slides or there were no slides to the session (many of the panel discussions did not have slides).

As for the mobile app, it was working for me fine.

Tim,

That is exactly what I have done, but the slides appear to all be "locked", and clicking on the locked slides simply returns me to the session list.

Any suggestions?

Michael

Another note: If I hover over the "locked" slide button, it says "Upgrade to premium for slides"

I figured that it might be a technical support problem, and it was!

My account (for some reason) was not properly set up to download. The folks at CadmiumCD were able to correct it.

Good luck to all of you!

I can't download the slides either. Mine are showing as locked too. How can I get this fixed for me too?

You'll probably need to contact tech support. I think the other user had
to do that.

Yes, the best course is to check with support in the case of the issue you're experiencing.

Hi, could you indicate where these downloaded slides are saved on Samsung Galaxy phone?

Re: Downloading the slides

SamanthaO_isc2 — Tue, 23 Oct 2018 20:47:16 GMT

Hello @JPW2018,

Apologies for the delay. On your device, you should either see a Downloads folder in your Apps or a folder called "My Files" that will lead you to a Downloads folder (at least according to Samsung's FAQs). I also wanted to point you to the following post that @Tim_ISC2 made about how to download the slides on your computer if that is easier - How to Download Slides for Security Congress 2018 Attendees

I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Hi Samantha,

Thanks for the response.

I knew the Downloads folder you mentioned. The problem is the downloaded slides are not saved in the Downloads folder. I can find the slide pictures only in a system folder. The download function on mobile app seems not saving the slides into the Downloads folder. I am not sure if other people have different experience.
