I'm trying to upload the 1-Minute test to our MC, and it's not uploading properly (the size is over 300 KB and it's been stuck on .29 KB for about 10 minutes now). It doesn't give me a sign it's actually uploading (e.g. telling me the uploading is in progress). Does it usually take a long time (should I wait it out) or is something wrong? Thanks,
JayKitty76
There's definitely something wrong. I just uploaded an almost 500 kb file and it took a few seconds. I don't know if this matters, but did you make sure the file you uploaded was .mp3?

Hi benderca,

Yes it's definitely mp3...it says so in the file name. I really don't know what to do...MaryAnn said the problem was on my end, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I tried clicking 'Cancel Upload' right now but nothing happened...maybe it wasn't even uploading in the first place? I removed the file from the list by clicking 'Clear' and that seemed to work. Not sure how to proceed...I'm on a deadline (Oct. 4) but with this problem I can't upload anything....


:help:
Thanks anyway,

Twinkle88,
Thanks for your help- you've been great. I'm just not sure how to proceed. I clicked 'Cancel Upload' like I told +benderca in an earlier post, but it didn't do anything, so I'm thinking maybe it didn't even start uploading in the first place? (Sigh.) MaryAnn told me it's probably on my end, not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks for your help,

Hi Twinkle88 and MaryAnn,
I just noticed that the file I am trying to upload is a Groove Music audio file- yet it still says .mp3 file attached to the end. Will the uploader accept this type of audio file? I can't get Audacity to export the file as anything else but a Groove Music file. :hmm: :?
Thank you,

Jaykitty,
Your test is found. It was uploading, I'm not sure why it didn't give you a confirmation on that.

You can check the status of your test here: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=71355

[We like to put the tests in a separate thread, rather than have them buried in the middle of a project thread. Makes it easier for you to talk back and forth with the person who is giving feedback, without those comments getting lost in the regular project posts.]

Here is Tom Carter's line in chapter 16. Considering that I'm 68 years old, I hope I sound enough like a young teen in love.

This should be the last of my assignments for this project. Feel free to ask for my help on anything else.

I'm sorry, but that role has already been claimed, and there are no other open male roles. You may want to check out some of the other dramatic works and see if you can find something you like. :)
