  1. Set up your account
    You will receive an email with the subject “Welcome to 亚色影库!” Follow the instructions in this message to claim your account and set a password. After you set a password, you will receive another email when your account is ready to go. That email will provide instructions and links for your first login, where you will set up Microsoft Authenticator. After that, you will need to set up a phone number for password resets in the Microsoft Security Info portal.
  2. Get to know My亚色影库
    My亚色影库 is the university portal. It is used for a wide variety of functions at the university. You will use My亚色影库 to register for classes, view your grades, sign up for on-campus housing, and much more. You will log in to My亚色影库 with your network username and password.
  3. Log in to your email
    Your 亚色影库 email account is based on Microsoft Office 365. Use your full email address and your network password to log in to your account. The email address is your username@iup.edu. For students, your username is your initials (first, middle, last or first, last) followed by three numbers

  6. Protect your computer
    If you do not take these steps to protect your computer, you will not be able to connect to the 亚色影库 network if your computer is infected or compromised. Be sure to:
    • Update your operating system with the latest security patches using Windows Update (Windows) or Software Update (Macs). It’s best to enable automatic updates.
    • Turn on Windows Defender on your Windows computer. Install antivirus software on your Mac. See the software available for your antivirus options depending on your computer specifications.
    • Optionally, install Malwarebytes. The link to purchasing Malwarebytes is listed on our software. This software detects and prevents malware from installing and running on your computer.
    • Occasionally, run a full virus and anti-malware (if installed) scan on your computer.
