Having trouble uploading Assignments?

 General Issues

• Do you have any special characters such as \ / : * ? " < > | ~ # % & + { } in the file name? D2L does not accept those characters and will prevent the file from uploading. Try renaming the file.
• How long is the file name? We recommend that you keep the file name under 45 characters.
• Are there any leading or trailing spaces in the file name? Delete any leading or trailing spaces.
• Are there one or two periods before the file extension (for example ..doc)? There should be only one.
• Does the file have a valid file extension (such as .doc, .docx, .pdf)? 
• Word documents often save two files, one is the document file: assignment.docx and the other is a temporary file: ~$assignment.docx. Ensure you are uploading the actual document and not the temporary file, as the temporary file will not open and contains no data.
• "Field is required" error. This error message appears when you click Add before your file has completely uploaded. Wait until the green loading bar on your file name has completed loading, and then click Add.
• "File restriction" error: Make sure your file is saved as one of the accepted Turnitin filetypes - html, doc, docx, hwp, odt, rtf, wpd, txt, ps, pdf, pptx, ppt, ppsx, pps, xls, xlsx, gdoc, then re-submit.
