Why can't I log in to my account?

If you're getting an error when attempting to log in to your Digital Download Center account, make sure you are using the correct login email and password. Note: this is a SEPARATE login from a Group.com purchasing account.  We intentionally separated these accounts so you have the option of sharing your login for accessing downloadable content with others on your ministry team without giving them the ability to make purchases on your behalf.  Make sure you are logging in at www.group.com/digital.

If you know you set up an account, but cannot remember your password, just click the Forgot Password link on the login page and a new temporary password will be sent by email.  You can change your password at any time by logging in and clicking on My Account to update your profile.

What does it mean to "Activate" content?

Your account contains downloadable digital copies of the printed teacher guides you purchase.  Each product includes a unique activation code on the inside cover or on an insert in your kit that "unlocks" your access to the digital copy.  Simply log in to your Digital Download Center account, click the Activate button in the list of downloads or go to My Account and select Activate Content, and enter the activation code found in the product you purchased.

I just activated my content, but I'm not seeing it. What should I do?

Make sure to select a value for each of the four dropdown lists: Program, Quarter, Age Level, and Resource Type. For example, when activating a new FaithWeaver NOW teacher guide, make sure to choose Teacher Guide from the Resource Type dropdown. Once you have made a selection, a "cookie" is saved in your browser so that the next time you access your account, you should see the same settings you last selected.

How do I share teacher guides with my teachers?

We want to keep things simple for you, so think of Group's Digital Download Center as an online archive for theoriginalversions of your program content. You can simply download the file(s) to your computer then you can distribute the file(s) by e-mailing them or printing and distributing the copy. See the topic below on “Permissions for Downloads”

How many copies of a teacher guide may I print or email?

Digital copies may be printed or emailed as many times as desired within a single church location.  Please respect Group's copyright and do not post these files on any website accessible to the general public.

Why can't I edit my lessons?

Only some curriculum products provide Word doc files. Make sure you downloaded the Word doc file and have Microsoft Word 2003 or later installed on your computer.  You cannot edit an Adobe PDF file without specialized software.
