CDH maintains a Help Desk to provide Humanities computer users with a central contact point for assistance, services and information requests.

Our Help Desk Coordinator will troubleshoot your computing problems via phone or email, schedule consultations, and endeavor to assist you with general computing matters Monday-Friday from 8:30am-5:00pm.

To request assistance, call the Help Desk at (310) 206-1414 or send electronic mail requests to cdh@humnet.ucla.edu.

Walk-in help is available Monday-Friday from 10:00am-4:00pm.

As a rule of thumb, you should call the Help Desk for any computing emergencies or problems needing immediate resolution, or to schedule or cancel appointments. Send us e-mail for problems you have that are not immediately pressing.

When you request assistance, it will help us if you have the following information ready:

  • Computer or Printer Type;
  • Operating System [e.g., Windows 98] or System Software [e.g., Macintosh System 9.0.4] version number;
  • application name and version number [e.g., Microsoft Word 2000].
