45b Posted December 13, 2013 at 05:03 PM Share Posted December 13, 2013 at 05:03 PM I have tried to go thru the process to get the State of Illinois digital ID that the link from the ISP website shows. Multiple times it says "the drivers license information is invalid". I have triple checked the information, and it is correct. FINALLY IT WORKED. HAD TO PUT CAP LOCK ON AND PUT ALL INFO IN CAPS LIKE THIS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJSum1 Posted December 13, 2013 at 05:16 PM Share Posted December 13, 2013 at 05:16 PM I can't help but think they do this stuff on purpose. Not sure I could pinpoint their exact reason why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WtJen Posted December 13, 2013 at 05:42 PM Share Posted December 13, 2013 at 05:42 PM The site itself is a simple fill in the blank web form. An average web page designer, could in a hour or so, make it work for multiple platforms, browser versions, and not require Java at all. I showed the form to my company IT guy and he laughed his butt off and said "You got five minutes, I can create a website form that will work with anything you use to connect to the internet with" Just more state level incompetence on display as usual.

narcoden Posted December 13, 2013 at 06:29 PM Share Posted December 13, 2013 at 06:29 PM That site said my DL had already been used and can't create one... I guess I must have used this before for something although I can not recall what for. Anyhow, the site gets a 404 error when trying to use the "I forgot my password" button... Great.

abolt243 Posted December 13, 2013 at 09:05 PM Share Posted December 13, 2013 at 09:05 PM Guys, don't be afraid to call the IT support line, 800-366-8768. They operate 24/7/365 and were most helpful when I called them. No, we shouldn't have to put up with this, but I intend to do what is necessary to get a license.

On my training cert my middle name is spelled out. just like it is on my SS card. I did it that way since it is after all my full legal name but my DL and FOID use only my middle initial. Its been that way since I first got my FOID back in '84 and my DL in '86. Its never been an issue when paying State income taxes. I'd have to look back and see how I've signed my name on the returns.

He also asked why I was setting up an ID and when I told him the speculation that it would be required to apply for CC he responded with "I hadn't heard that, I better create an I.D. myself". Don't be afraid to call support. They were fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the digital ID site asks for your DL info, put it in exactly as it is on your license.Just because your middle name is spelled out on your certificate but not on your DL shouldn't be a problem... I hope!You'll have the pictures for further verification. I'd say if the pictures match and the DL info matches, you'd be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capnbill Posted December 14, 2013 at 02:50 PM Share Posted December 14, 2013 at 02:50 PM thanks for the link but i still cant get on the sight Check your browser first to make sure that you have the current version of Java and then delete old versions of Java from that browser. This will test Java to see if you have the latest version; you need to do that for each browser you are trying to use. http://java.com/en/d...d/installed.jsp This is the Java Uninstall Tool for removing old versions. http://java.com/en/d...stallapplet.jsp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarlJ Posted December 14, 2013 at 03:17 PM Share Posted December 14, 2013 at 03:17 PM I have IE 8Used java.com uninstall tool to remove old java from PC Used the Java.com site to install the newest java.Reboot and test java at Java.comWent to state website, passed java test. Continued w/application and after processing my password I get a "the page you are trying to reach is unavailable" with a "diagnose internet connection" tab.Call help line and they have to deleted account the following morning. Go back to java.com to test java and the site is unable to detect java? Did this^ entire process from Saturday until Tuesday. On Tuesday, after going through the above process I stopped at the application part where I enter a password. I opened another tab, went to Java.com and tested my version of java. It said "unable to detect java".What the heck? It past the java test at java.com immediately before the application. It passed the java test on the state website. But sometime during the application, java goes south. It's got to be a setting in my PC? Firewall?, internet setting? Java setting? I can't find it so I back out of the application.Grab my wife's laptop, download java reboot and test. Go to states digital ID, create an account and it accepts it.!I still can't access my account from my PC, but I can access it from Jens PC. Still don't know what the problem is, I can only assume its a setting in my PC. If this process isn't user friendly and can't recognize different common platforms then it shouldn't exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flw Posted December 14, 2013 at 06:09 PM Share Posted December 14, 2013 at 06:09 PM I finally got my digital ID. Now the question is: Can I use a different computer when Jan 5 comes or did it put a certificate on that computer? (Does it have to be the same computer or just one that is java/IE compatible? Guess's are acceptable for now..... I ask because I could only get to the digital id website from my sons laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
