Hello, just a quick question to those who are currently working on the ongoing Canvas issue. As a student, I was wondering if there is any estimate on how long it may take before students are able to access Canvas normally again. I’m asking because today is the last day for a lot of assignments and exams, and while I’ve been able to work around some of the issues, one of my exams is directly on Canvas, so I’m trying my best to plan my remaining work accordingly.

I also wanted to say thank you to everyone currently working on resolving the situation. I can only imagine how stressful this probably is on your side as well, especially with so many students relying on the system right now. Even though I know a lot of us are anxious, we really do appreciate the effort and time being put into fixing the issue and getting everything back up and running.

😭😭😭

Hey everyone, I’m having an issue with Respondus LockDown Browser and I’m hoping someone can help quickly. My professor requires us to use both LockDown Browser and webcam monitoring for our exams, and after finally downloading the browser from my college’s official website and setting everything up correctly on my Windows laptop, I noticed that every time I open the exam it goes straight into the quiz instead of starting the webcam setup, room scan, or recording process. I already checked my webcam permissions, tested the webcam through Respondus itself, and even opened the ungraded practice test through LockDown Browser, but it still skips directly to the quiz questions without asking me to do any webcam verification. At this point I genuinely cannot tell if the webcam monitoring was never fully enabled by the professor or if I’m somehow still doing something wrong. I’m nervous because the exams are due tomorrow and I don’t want to be penalized over a technical issue, so if anyone has experienced something similar before or knows what might be happening, I would really appreciate the help!
