MarketView is giving me a “login failed” error.

This means the login information (user ID or password) you entered is incorrect or invalid. Try retyping your login information. Customer care can reset your password if necessary.


I am getting an error tha says “server-unavailable.”

You will need to be able to access our port 6487. This needs to be done by your internal technical staff. You can also contact customer care to obtain a copy of our client configuration document.


I get an error saying “unable to launch application”. What can I do?
