The easiest way to find your JHED LID is to search for yourself in the JHED directory from any campus computer. Due to security and privacy concerns, there are restrictions on information (such as the Login ID) if you attempt to search from off-campus. 1. Go to http://jhed.johnshopkins.edu/ (this link will open a new window). 2. At the top of the screen will be "Search for a person:". Enter your Last Name in the text field that says "Last Name, First Name" and click on the "Go>>" button.
Note: if you have a common Last Name, try to provide "Last Name, First Name". e.g., Search for a Person: Hopkins, Johns 3. Much like a search engine, a list of results will appear, listing all the people with your last name. Once you find your name in the Search Results screen, click on your name to view detailed information about yourself. 4. On your particular page, look for the field in big, bold letters titled "Login Id:". The ID appearing next to this field is your LID.
If you cannot find your name, or see "LID is suppressed" (when searching from off-campus), please contact one of the following:
If you have questions about JHED, please contact the IT@Johns Hopkins
Help Desk at 410-516-HELP (during regular business hours). Note: Helpdesk employees are not permitted to provide students, staff or faculty with their JHED ID’s. If you are unable to locate your JHED ID, you will need to contact one of the authorities listed above. 1. Go to http://jhed.johnshopkins.edu/ (this link will open a new window). 2. At the top of the screen, click on the tab titled "Login".
3. When the Login screen comes up, scroll down to the section titled "First Time Login/Reset my password:". Enter your JHED LID in the appropriate field.
4. Click on the "Submit Login Request Now!" button to continue. 5. Now you must identify yourself to the JHED system to confirm that the JHED LID you are using is in fact the proper one. The next screen that comes up will prompt you for both your Social Security Number (SSN) and Date of Birth (DOB). Enter your information in the appropriate fields.
Note: APL Staff will be prompted for their APL Employee Number, not SSN or Date of Birth. 6. Click on the "Submit Login Request Now!" button to continue. 7. Now you must enter a Secret Question/Secret Answer combination. The secret answer you enter will allow the JHED system to verify your identity if you ever lose or forget your password and find yourself unable to log into JHED.
8. Finally, pick a password that is between 6 and 8 characters long, with at least one digit (0-9). Enter this password in the "New Password" and "Verify New Password" fields. You need to enter your New Password twice to verify you typed it correctly. 9. Click on the "Change My Password Now!" button. 10. Congratulations! You are now logged into the JHED system. In the future, to log back into JHED, all you have to do is enter your JHED LID and password. 11. First-Time users may be required by their Schools to take the "JHU Policies Quiz". All students (full-time and part-time) in the Schools of
Arts and Sciences, Engineering, and Peabody, will be prompted to take an
online test demonstrating knowledge of Hopkins' student computing
policies. You may review these student computing policies online at the Student Computing
Policy Guide web site before you take the online test.
Warning: do NOT share your JHED Password with anyone else. Someone who knows your JHED LID and Password can have access to resources at JHU without your permission or knowledge. 1.

3. When the Login screen comes up, scroll down to the section titled "LID & Password Login:". Enter your JHED Login ID (LID) and Password in the appropriate fields.
4. Click on the "Submit Login Request Now!" button to continue. 5. The JHED "MyApps" page will be displayed. Under the section "JHED Functions", click on the link "Change Password".
6. You should see a page that says "Update JHED Directory Password". You will be prompted to enter your "Current Password", a "New Password" and "Verify New Password". You need to enter your New Password twice to verify you typed it correctly.
7. Click on the "Update Password Now>>" button to continue. Note: you also have the opportunity to update your JHED Secret Question and Answer. 8. You may notice an alert window that says "Your LAN/Windows password has been changed to match your JHED password." Click on the "Ok" button to continue. Note: This only concerns JHU PCs managed by the IT@Johns Hopkins Desktop LAN Services group, including public computing facilities. This does NOT affect your home computer. 9. You should get another alert window that says "Your JHED password has been successfully changed". Click on the "Ok" button to continue. Warning: Do NOT share your JHED Password with anyone else. Someone who knows your JHED LID and Password can have access to resources at JHU without your permission or knowledge. The LID is an 8 character id that consists of first initial, lastname (up to 6 characters) and a number on the end to maintain uniqueness. For example, the LID for Johns Hopkins would be jhopkin1, with the second Johns Hopkins being jhopkin2, etc. In order to generate the LID, we generate the id and check for uniqueness against an "all accounts" table for Hopkins, consisting of account ids for the major host systems as well as e-mail ids. To perform a search using JHED you do not need to login, unless you are off campus and want to get an intranet view of the directory. Even then, you can search, however, the results will be very restricted. Each person found in JHED has been assigned a unique login id for several reasons; |
