Uploading to Mahara

Uploading to Mahara

Hello, over the past week I have spent a lot of time trying to unsuccessfully upload documents to Mahara. Most times when I try to upload documents (and these are very small files, 30kb), Mahara shows the uploading symbol continuously. Mahara is the only programme that takes so long to upload anything so it seems very unlikely to be to do with my home internet or computer. The problem is occurring at all times of day. As I'm on school placement I'm unable to come into university. 

Thanks.

Hi Carys,

Sorry to hear you're having problems uploading to Mahara. Which browser are you using? Could you send me an example of a file you are trying to upload via email and I'll see if I can spot anything obvious. anna.holloway@newman.ac.uk

I have tested uploading a test file using Internet Explorer and Chrome and seems to be working ok. Havent heard of any other reports from other students as yet but we'll try and get to the bottom of it.

Thanks,
Anna

Hello, I've downloaded Google Chrome and this seems to work much better. I think Mahara just is not very compatible to Apple products unfortunately. 

 

Thanks.

Hi Carys,

I'm curious... What device are you using and with what operating system?

Hi Bob, 

I've been using a Mac computer, using their internet browser Safari.
