If you are using Internet Explorer and receive a Security Warning, ie “Do you want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely?” select NO. We’ve found that Internet Explorer isn’t that great at handling these custom reports – Typically, they work much better in Mozilla Firefox or Chrome.
If you really, really want to Internet Explorer for these reports, then we recommend the following settings changes: Go to TOOLS > INTERNET OPTIONS > SECURITY > Select LOCAL INTRANET and move the Security Level bar to the LOW position. Then click OK, then close Internet Explorer – then you can reopen IE and test it again.
