If certain places in Karbon are not opening or loading, it may be affected by a specific ad-blocker you may have. To determine if this is it, try accessing that area in Incognito Mode or Private mode as ad-blockers do not work in this mode. To do this in your browsers, check the instructions found in this article.

How it works:

When troubleshooting, it is a lot easier for us to help you if you pass along a screenshot of your issue in Karbon. If you are asked to do so, make sure you are including the URL address in the top of the screen. This URL address bar will help us find out what and where exactly in the app the issue may be. Screenshots that do not contain a URL address will not help us determine what is going on and it may therefore take our support team longer to help you.

If neither of these trouble shooting steps have helped your issue, please reach out to our support team and provide any information about the steps mentioned above.
