Sometimes when something goes wrong in Samply we might ask you to help us debug by opening your developer console.

In this article:

• Chrome (MacOS & Windows)
• Safari (MacOS)

To open the developer console, use the appropriate keyboard shortcut

Cmd + Option + J (Mac)

Ctrl + Shift + J (Windows)

Alternatively, you can use the Chrome menu. Select the option "More Tools," and then select "Developer Tools."

Once opened, if you don't see the big blue "S" try finding the Console tab that is highlighted in the image below.

Safari

First, you'll need to turn on the Develop menu. To do this, open the Safari menu in the Mac menu bar, then select Preferences.

Once in the Preferences dialog, navigate to the Advanced tab, then check the "Show Develop menu in the menu bar" box.

Once the Develop menu has been enabled, you can go to the Develop menu in the menu bar and then select the "Show JavaScript Console" option.

Other browsers
