Student Account Full

If you cannot print on a library printer and have exhausted other possibilities, please consider that your account might have reached its maximum capacity. You will have to remove/transfer files to free up space on your account.

Save to S-Drive!

No Thumb Drive? Save to your S-Drive! All students have personal space on the ACC Student Server. So when you're using a Library or Computer Lab PC, save your work to your "S" Drive, and not to "My Documents" or "Desktop".

That way, you can access your files from any campus PC. To access from home, go to ftp://sunyacc.edu and enter your username and password. You can copy your files onto your home desktop, make changes, then copy back to the S-drive. Need help? Just stop by the Ref Desk!
