Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How many times can I view the videos after I have subscribed?
A.You can view the videos as many times as you want after you subscribed. The only limit how long you subscribed for.
Q. Do I need a webcam?
A.No. All you need is good speakers or headphones and you’re good to go
Q.Why can’t I play the videos?
A.There are a couple of reasons why this is happening. You need to be subscribed and logged-in to view the videos.
1.In most browsers there is usually a small delay before the videos start to play. This could be as long as 30 sec. We ask you to be patient.
2.It could also be the video player. If you have Divx player installed, then disable it as it can sometimes cause problems with the streaming. We recommend you use Apple’s Safari browser for best experience.
If you are still having trouble please email info@principalchairs.com

Q. Why do I have to “log-in” to view some PDFs?

1. If you paid via PayPal, then you need to log-in to your PayPal admin and cancel the recurring subscription from there. We will deal with the rest.
2. If you paid via our Credit/Debit card terminal, simply go to My Account, after you “log-in”, and click “Cancel my Subscription”
