I did as you said this evening and I'm having flawless access to both AKO and my Enterprise email for the first time in ages. I can't thank you enough! I wish I'd known about your site earlier, consider me a spokesperson for your excellent resource and service.

Thank you for helping millions of people use their CACs for years and be the CAC go to guy for everyone.  Thank you for creating and maintaining the #1 CAC help website that has saved many peoples lives including mine!  Thank you for all the invaluable help and advice you have given me and others!  Thank you for sponsoring my AKO account!  I am eternally grateful for all of this.

Thank you for the video.  I've used militarycac.com content and your videos to my my wife and I out of CAC related frustrations in the past.  This again was a great example of the clear, concise, and helpful instructions the website provides.  Cheers.

Thank you very much for your assistance in this matter.  I followed your instructions and have achieved success.  It seems I had multiple CAC enablers installed on my computer.  After getting down to just one, it now works great.  I great appreciate your assistance and will have your website information posted around my company are for the Soldiers to see.

Michael Danberry was the ONLY person on the planet who could explain exactly why I have been unable to access my enterprise email since its inception over two years ago.  This was a point of embarrassment to me personally as an officer and a senior leader.  It was also terribly frustrating, and I would conservatively estimate spending more than 100 hours in those 2 years at every CAC registration place between DC, SOUTHCOM and Salt Lake City trying to gain access, including the AKO Helpdesk and other national resources.  

Michael spent two evenings with me, all of his own time, to explain and repair all that was needed to get me into my account.  I could not be more pleased with the result, or more grateful for the help that NO ONE else could provide.

I would also like to acknowledge the website he created for assistance with all things CAC, http://militarycac.com.  Once I discovered this site, things changed rapidly.  It has capabilities, resources and explanations for everything a soldier might do with a CAC card, and it is updated regularly with up to the minute information to assist soldiers in all areas associated with computers and military CAC card operations.  It is an amazing resource, and one that is privately funded by Michael Danberry.  Can you believe that a soldier would do that on his own? It doesn’t happen often, that’s for sure.  

To summarize: thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I will be donating to the site and I hope everyone who has an issue is lucky enough or has someone direct them to Michael Danberry and www.militarycac.com

Chief, I just upgraded from a standard disk to an SSD, had to re-install all software.  AKO / EE / etc would be literally impossible to access without your advice on your website. 

 

Super ginormous big tanks from me.  You are great.

You are the best.  You are the guru in setting up CAC.  I struggled so hard for almost 2 weeks, ending up blocking my Military ID.  After getting my ID unblocked, your assistance via phone and remote assistance fixed the problem instantaneously.  Now I am able to log in to my web.mail.mil and AKO via my CAC without any issue.  Problem solved.  Many thanks to you and your knowledge about computers, CAC and CAC readers.

Thanks for sharing information about RASXTRA, this worked perfectly.  I can't thank you enough for helping me from getting kicked off the network again, and for working on my laptop.  You have provided me with more assistance in the last couple months (which only included one face to face meeting, one telephone call, and one email) than I have received in the last four years from anyone else.  You are, by far, and amazing asset.  I wish you the best in your future endeavors.

Michael, Thanks for the incredibly useful site--I've used it again and again (more often once I switched to Macs) and it's inevitably_the_resource that gets me up and running again.  Great work; thanks for serving the community by doing what DoD should probably have a contract for (don't get me started on Macs not being supported by the EE help desk...)

Thanks so much!  Do you know that the NAVY IT Help line told me to go to your website to set up my Windows 8.1 laptop!  You need to start charging them!

I just wanted to drop you a short email to say "thanks" for putting together the militarycac.com website.  Both my wife and I are wrapping up tours at our current duty station and will be heading over to the National War College at NDU. Since NDU now has a "Bring Your Own Device" policy, we decided to purchase new 2-in-1 laptops that would allow us to complete the readings using the tablet and write our papers using the laptop mode. Since we need to be able to access CAC enabled websites during the next year without having access to a .mil network, we are working to be able to utilize our CACs on our new 2-in-1s.  It is amazing how little information is provided by the services, and were it not for your website, we would be dead in the water.  I want you to know that the time you spend keeping the information updated (we have Windows 8.1 and IE 11 on the new devices) and accessible to members of each of the armed forces is extremely helpful and I
wanted to make sure I passed along a note of thanks.

Thanks again for the great work on the website and for helping the rest of us stay connected.

Step 1 worked!!  I can't thank you enough!  The USN should rid themselves of the SPAWAR contract (who's helpdesk BTW referred you to me after not being able to resolve my issue) and instead contract with you.  :)  Thank you again!

I was getting the message "no valid certificate" etc and couldn't sign my OER in the new EES system.  Your tip to uncheck "enable protected mode" was the key to getting it done.  This is the second time you have helped me out with CAC issues, and I appreciate it.  Thank you for sharing your expertise.

 

 

Mr SS

Thursday 26 June 2014

 

Michael, I'm sorry for the delay.  I should have sent some money years ago.  It just hit me today that I'm always using your site to get into mail.mil and other CAC enabled sites.  So, anyway, you earned more than this donation.  Thank you..for making my life hell by being able to work at home.  Just kidding.

Thanks for keeping this site up to date.  Unfortunately I have to use MilitaryCAC more than expected to keep my home computer "CAC ready."

Dang Mike, your a freakin' genius!  Who are you?  Active Duty? Some sort of IT Superman?!  I ran the MalWare bytes program, it detected and fixed some issues.  I've logged into my top 5 CAC websites with no problems.  Such a simple fix, and I've been fighting this issue for so long.

I just wanted to reach out and give my thanks and the strongest recognition
possible for CW3 Danberry. I have spent approximately 20 hours over the last  several weeks trying to reconcile my browser, CAC, Java, and Enterprise email - and I have spent countless hours with customer service reps from Enterprise, DMDC, Army Publishing Directorate and local DEERS sites, and nobody was able to resolve all the issues collectively until CW3 Danberry.  Most importantly, I appreciate CW3 Danberry for simply taking responsibility of the issue until the problem was resolved. This is unfortunately too rare a quality in technical service today, and I sincerely appreciate his commitment to helping fellow MIRC soldiers.

CW3 Danberry is a tremendous asset to the MIRC and soldiers like me in the field. I understand that he also manages MilitaryCAC.com, which is probably the best single resource available to reconcile these disjointed and complex information systems. In my opinion, he should be training the other technical service reps at Enterprise, DMDC and Army Publishing Directorate. For what it's worth, I'd like to offer my sincerest thanks for him going above and beyond, and hope that he is recognized for his selfless service.

I FINALLY got my EEmail to work at home thanks to your updated instructions at MilitaryCAC!  I've been down on my home PCs for the last few months since the last Windows / Internet Explorer "update," but now I am back up and running!  

 

I just wanted to drop you a quick note of thanks for your efforts!  I'll make sure the rest of my troops at my unit visit your page who are having the same issue that I was!

 

Much appreciated!

Experiencing challenges setting up DTS on my personal laptop, my problem was ultimately resolved with ease by going to militarycac.com first rather than go through other "how to" sites.  My wife, who was a former IT Director for a patent attorney law firm, was personally inspired by your base of knowledge and simplistic delivery of great problem solving information.  Your website is extremely efficient, accurate, and up to date which shows tremendous dedication and talent.  My wife has demanded that I direct my Soldiers to exploit militaryCAC when they experience any type of military computer related issue which, as you know, can cripple on line training and readiness.  I will do just that!  Thanks Chief

Chief,  I am the Captain that you assisted Saturday night in identifying the malware on my computer and finally getting it to work.  I had literally spent about 30 hours with various members of my unit's IT department (including another 4.5 hours on that Saturday working my computer prior to calling you).  I really appreciate all that you did!  If you are ever out in Arizona please let me know so I can buy you a drink!

Your website is awesome!!! Saved me from so many headaches with my new Windows 8.1 computer and IE 11.  Just the CAC help alone is great, but then I ran into a DTS issue and BAM.  Who helped again?  You did!  Great job Sir!

 

 

CPT TH

Tuesday 8 April 2014

 

Your videos are OUTSTANDING!!!  With all the software upgrades on personal computers and the military constantly security updates, the simple things such as signing an OER or making travel arrangements have become a massive headache - but thanks to you, service members are able to correct their computer/software issues on their own.  Kudos to you and all your patience!

 

 

CDR KP (Navy)

You really are a tremendous help!  I send folks to your site all the time.  Most don't have the patience or stamina to figure our their own problems... even with all the expert advice / resources you provide.

Michael, I want to personally thank you for your incredible work with MilitaryCAC.com. Your site has been solely responsible for my ability to utilize my CAC on both my PCs and Macs. Most recently, you responded to a problem I was having accessing Enterprise Email. Your support pages ultimately contained the answer, but you took time out of your day to call me and within minutes, you fixed a problem that the government support system refused to support. 

I asked what I could do for you, and you said nothing about donations. I found the donation tab on your site and am proud to have sent money to you.

I send my most sincere thank you for your great service.

I am sure you get this on a daily basis, your website is a massive time-saver.  I appreciate the work you invest for others to benefit from your knowledge.

 

 

Mr. JM

Saturday 01 March 2014

 

I recently had to give up my government laptop that had VPN connectivity.   I was forced to use Citrix on my personal computer to connect to my files.  I have a CAC reader installed and successfully connect to OWA and other CAC-enable websites.  When I tried to connect to Citrix, I was queried for my CAC and entered my PIN.  I eventually was asked to enter my username/password/domain - which I do not have.  I checked with my local IT support - no clue how to assist.  I called the Army enterprise help desk - very polite, but would not assist for a personal computer.  I finally remembered to check militarycac.com and was reminded to add 'army.mil' to compatibility view settings.  Your website saved the day once again!  Thanks for all you do!

No problems, because this site is so great.  I just completed the quick tutorial video on how to set up DBSign on my Mac and it works 4.0.  Thanks for doing this  Again, I'm having no problems, just wanted to say thanks.

No issues here - thanks to your site!!!  Just wanted to send a thank you, your way for the easy to understand and incredibly helpful site you've got to help solve the CAC-related mysteries of life.  For the one millionth time, your site has again solved my problem.  Keep up the awesome work!!

Hello Chief Danberry,  I just wanted to thank you very much for the time and energy that you put in towards helping service members with their CAC issues.

 

I just spent over 12 hours doing nothing, but setting up my PC so that I can download and sign Lotus forms, as well as use the Outlook Web App, AKO, and DTS websites using my CAC.  The process was ridiculously confusing, however there would've been absolutely no way I would've accomplished this if it wasn't for your extensive links and advice.

 

It is frankly shameful that these types of workarounds are still necessary a few years after these systems were first implemented.  However, I realize that that's not your fault and you've obviously been battling the giants of

ineptitude for the sake and sanity of the American Soldier for some time.

 

Also, I subscribed to your YouTube channel and rather enjoy your informative and fun videos.

  

Thanks again!
