Access desktop app details

Before contacting BlackBerry AtHoc Support for help with problems you are having with the BlackBerry AtHoc Desktop App, you should open the application details screens for the particular version of the application that you are running. The information contained on these screens will be useful for the Support team as they work to diagnose and fix the problem you are encountering. 
The application details screens can be accessed by right-clicking Globe icon and selecting 
About
 from the menu that appears.
The 
System Information
 tab allows you to see if the app is currently connected to a BlackBerry AtHoc server and the server URL. The 
Connection Status
 field displays Connected if you have a connection and the 
Server Base URL
 field displays the URL of the server to which you are connected.
The Connection Status and Server Base URL displayed on the System Information tab
The 
Connection Settings
 tab, which appears only on Windows platforms, provides options for automatic configuration and use of a proxy server. Because these settings are not used for most installations, it is unlikely you will need to review this information.
The 
About
 tab displays the version of the desktop app that is installed on your machine. If the Support team requests that you send them your system details, you can export that information by clicking the 
Export System Information
 button on the screen. You can also open your log file or copy and mail your log file path by clicking the corresponding button on the screen.
