360172 2005-06-01 04:03:00 I am taking an online class and my teacher post assignments on a bulliten. I can open the thumbnail, but I can not open the thread. What do I do? I cant get my assignments! Christi (8249)
360173 2005-06-01 04:40:00 Do you have to enter a password to access the assignments?

If you have Windows XP and have installed SP2 the default security installed with SP2 might stop your browser opening a PDF file .

What error message do you get when you try to open the assignment file?

Yes I have to login in to WebCT with my password. I did just recently install Norton Internet Anti-Virus on my computer. No error message pops up. It does nothing and at the bottom where it shows what it is doing, it just says done. I've tried to right click and open it every other way possible and it does absolutely nothing every time. Hope you can help...

Thanks

360177 2005-06-02 05:44:00 I think it would be a good idea to ask your tutor about this. I think we've covered the things we can guess at with very little information. When you get the blank browser window with the "Done" in the bottom line, what is the file name shown in the Address line at the top? That might provoke some more ideas. Graham L (2)
360178 2005-06-02 08:38:00 Further to Graham's comment re PDF what version of Adobe Reader are you using compared with the version the Teacher is using. Granddaughter had similar problem with another programme where the Teacher was using a later version than she had and could only obtain part of the info required. FrankS (257)
