STEP #2: ​SWITCH TO AN ALTERNATE INTERNET BROWSER

Your Internet cache in your browser may need to be cleaned/cleared out. If you are unsure on how to clear your browser cache, an alternate and quicker option is to try switching to a different browser than the one you're currently using to continue viewing the program.

If you're on Internet Explorer or Safari - try switching to view the program on Google Chrome browser (or vice versa).
