Okay here we are!!!!!!
I am having difficulty opening some of the powerpoints. A few are only 4kb in size - wondering if there were upload errors to BB when posted. Anyone else having trouble opening any of them?
I am also unable to open a few of them, specifically chapters 5, 9, and 13. I opened the rest of them up to chapter 20 just fine. I also went to the Microsoft website and re-downloaded all the updates, compatibility packs, and viewers just to make sure I had the most recent versions. I think you may be right about a possible upload error or something like that. I emailed the professor, but it's the weekend. She may not check her email again until Monday.
I'm in section 5, and only Concepts has yet to pop up on BB for me. I had an issue getting a couple Power Points to open as well, in Health Assesment. Got a "already in use" error.
I'm sure there is more than 1 error message that contains "already in use," but I have seen that before when someone used their Microsoft Office product key code to download it on more than one of their computers. It happened when both computers had Office open at the same time. But that happened on Macs. I installed mine on all my PCs and never had that happen. I don't know if that applies to your computer situation, but, if not, you can just type your specific error into google. You'll probably get the most reliable info from the Microsoft site.
Just in case, make sure you have the latest compatibility pack for your version of Office installed, as well as the PowerPoint 2010 viewer. However if it is only happening with some of the files, then it's more likely an error with the way the file was uploaded or something.

??? I don't have a Concepts, but Techniques, Assessment, and Pharmacology. And I'm in Section 5. I also cannot download some ppts, but my computer just says it's not compatible. I have the latest version of Office, and some were accessible, so I think it is a file error. I emailed the teacher... we'll see!:)
It seems that some of our classes and assignments are up and others are having trouble. It seems to me that IT may still be loading the classes and assignments. I would give it a few hours if you are unable to access it in BB yet. It's a lot of work that needs to be loaded for all 160 of us.
