Google Docs is a free Web-based service that allows you to manage and share documents, surveys, spreadsheets and presentations from one convenient place. All you need is a Web browser and an Internet connection to access to your documents. Some browsers and operating systems are not supported by Google and you won’t be able to access your documents properly from these incompatible platforms. Verify that your browser meets Google’s system requirements to enjoy full use of Google Docs.

Difficulty:Easy1

Open any Web browser and log in to your Google Docs account. Click a document from the center pane of the Google Docs window. If you can view the document, your browser is compatible with Google Docs. If you cannot view the document, proceed to Step 2.

2

Navigate to the Google Docs System Requirements page.

3

Locate your browser and operating system in the chart on the Systems Requirements page. If an “X” appears next to the browser and operating system, it means Google Docs should work with your configuration. If you do not see an “X” next to your operating system and browser, Google Docs is not supported and may not work.
