A General Error message can be caused by inactivity while in your online account. Your information is stored on a secure server, and the connection to that server may time out due to inactivity after a specified time limit. If your connection times out, any information you entered will be lost.

If you received the error notice while registering for the Credential Assembly Service, the most likely cause is that you attempted to enter the same school more than once. A school cannot be listed multiple times on the registration form; instead, enter the complete time span of your attendance at the school in one entry, and the information will be updated in your account when LSAC receives your transcripts.

If you receive this error notice at another time, it is usually caused by a problem with the secure connection between your computer and your LSAC.org account.

Do not leave any page in your LSAC.org account (including test or service registrations and electronic applications) unattended or inactive. Your information is stored on a secure server, and the connection to that server may be timed out after a time limit set by LSAC or your Internet service provider. If your connection times out, you may receive this error notice, and any information you entered will be lost.

If you are using a wireless Internet connection, you may receive this error message when moving between certain sections of LSAC.org. This is caused by our website being unable to determine if the connection to your computer meets the required level of security. Try physically connecting your computer to your Internet connection, then try again.

LSAT Admission Tickets are displayed in an Adobe Reader pop-up window. If you click the link to your ticket and no window appears, it is being blocked by pop-up blocker software on your computer. Be sure that you have disabled all pop-up blockers, or other software that may modify, block, filter, or reroute your connection. LSAC cannot assist you with any software provided by a third party.

Windows Users

If you have the required version of Adobe Reader installed and your LSAT Admission Ticket opens in a blank window, follow Adobe’s instructions for all the common Internet browsers. Some users may also need to make an additional change to their Internet Options. Exit all open programs; then, from your computer’s Control Panel, open Internet Options and click the Advanced tab. Scroll down the list of settings to the Security section and clear the Do not save encrypted pages to disk checkbox. Click OK and try to open your admission ticket.

Firefox and Safari have their own PDF viewers; only Adobe Reader’s PDF viewer can be used to display these documents.

Mac OS X Users

The default application to view PDFs in Safari is "Preview." Some LSAC documents do not display correctly in Preview and must be viewed using Adobe Reader. Opening the admission ticket in Preview will also place a copy of the file on your desktop as “Example.pdf.” Open Adobe Reader, click File, then Open. Browse to your desktop and select the downloaded copy of the ticket. This should open the admission ticket properly and allow you to view and print your ticket.
