How to disable hardware acceleration on Google Chrome
Description
When you access Sage Payroll Professional on an Apple Macbook, you experience navigation issues or a floating keyboard appears which you can't deactivate.
Cause

This issue appears due to incompatibility of web technologies and browsers running on Apple CPU machines and Windows CPU machines.

Disabling hardware acceleration in the browser can avoid this issue.

Resolution
  1. Close the payroll application in Google Chrome.
  2. Click the three vertical dots icon in the upper-right corner.
  3. Select Settings from the drop-down menu. 
  4. In the menu on the left side of the window, expand the Advanced menu.
  5. Click System
  6. Deactivate the switch next to Use hardware acceleration when available.
  7. Click Relaunch to open the browser.

 CAUTION: We don’t recommend using Safari as a browser to access Sage Payroll Professional. You won't be able to activate hardware acceleration.
