To open Account Settings, click the gear icon in the top right corner of the page.

The Account Settings page allows users to configure the default behavior of some features in the web interface and to change their passwords.

Notification Options

Display Task Popup Notifications: When this option is turned on, Task Popups will appear.
 

Search Options

Collapse Search Results: When this option is turned on, multiple search hits within a single recording will be collapsed into the first hit from that recording by default.

Default Search Filter: This option allows the user to specify a search filter to apply to all searches. See Search Help for the options that are available. Note:  if a filter is enabled here, it can be disabled on the fly when using Search.

Web Player Options

Skip Forward/Back: These option affect the behavior of the "Skip Forward" and "Skip Back" buttons and keyboard shortcuts in the Web Player.

E-mail Address: The e-mail address entered here is used to autopopulate the "From" field when sharing clips, and the "To" field when creating TV Alerts. If no address is entered here, the "E-mail Task From" address in E-mail Alerts will be used instead.

Change Password

To change this user's password, enter the old password and the new password here. A user with the Administer Users Permissions permission can also change a user's password.
This option will not appear for users logged in using LDAP credentials.
