TED Conference Proposal Login for Kaleidoscopes (November 3-6, 2010)

Complete the fields below to log in to the TED Conference Proposal submission system. User accounts from 2009 will not work for the 2010 Conference, so you must create a new one the first time you log in. Once you create an account and log in for the first time, you must complete the form with the contact information in order to continue. Other links you may need are at the top right-hand side of each subsequent page in the online proposal section. Please use the same account that you create to submit all proposals.

There is a two hour session limit per login for inactivity. You will be logged out without warning when that session expires. Inactivity is defined when there is an extended time where the server recieves no feedback from the user such as when typing a significant amount of text over a long period. When the session timesout, all unsubmitted form data is lost, and you will need to log back in to the system.

Since there are several form fields that require a significant amount of text, you may want to consider typing your information in notepad or MS Word and copying that into the fields.

If you submit a proposal and receive an error page. go back to the previous page and select the link titled "View My Proposals" located on the left side of the page. If, after selecting the link, your proposal appears as a link by its title, then it was submitted successfully. There is an error associated with sending confirmation emails due to a problem with the email system. Incidentally, you will not be getting a confirmation email if you received this error.

Contact rfgreen@uncc.edu to resolve any problems you may have.
