We are very new to ArcGis and have a web map created by one team member that no one else can open. She is without computer access but has told us to "Open in ArcGIS Explorer Online???--but this option does not appear for anyone else. When we try to open in Arcgis 10 for Desktop or Map Viewer options , we all get a "unable to download" error message. These are the only two options any of us have available. We have tried using different browsers as well as on pcs and macs. Any help on what we are doing wrong??? Any thoughts on what the Creator of the map may have done to cause this? any help would be much appreciated!!!!

There was an update made to ArcGIS Online night week, and as part of that update the 'Open in Explorer Online' option was removed. You can read about the other updates made at the following link:

http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/...0000006000000/

You can still manually navigate to explorer online, http://www.arcgis.com/explorer/ and sign into your account to review you webmaps, but are not able to perform this directly from ArcGIS.com anymore.

This forum also discusses the changes in funtionality, related to ArcGIS explorer online:
