Audio/Video playback is skipping or laggy

This is generally due to a poor internet connection. For the best experience, avoid downloading other files or checking e-mail while taking a course, as other internet-related apps can interrupt the stream of data or cause an erratic experience.

If the issue persists, contact your local system administrator or desktop support for further assistance.

 

No audio

Not all courses are accompanied by audio narration, music, and sound effects. Ask your training manager if the course does indeed contain audio. If it does, follow these steps to troubleshoot:

• Ensure your speakers or headphones are plugged securely into the correct jack on your device and are powered on (if applicable)

• Ensure the volume level is turned up on your device

• Launch a familiar website or application with audio to test audio output and the volume level

If the issue persists, contact your local system administrator or desktop support for further assistance.

Re-viewing/Resuming your course

Resume an interrupted course or re-view a completed course by following the same process used to initially login to the learning management system (LMS).

 

The course is frozen or stuck

This issue can occur when Internet Explorer’s (IE’s) “Compatibility View” feature is enabled. "Compatibility View" is not supported. This feature forces modern, supported IE versions to use rendering engines from older, unsupported versions of IE and can result in functionality issues, visual degradation, and an overall poorer user experience on our products.

How to update Compatibility View Settings:

1. If the menu bar is not displaying, hit the ALT key while in Internet Explorer to pull it up. Then choose Tools->Compatibility View Settings

2. Make sure to uncheck "Display all websites in Compatibility View" (it’s the bottom item)

If your issue persists, contact your local system administrator or support for further assistance with Compatibility View.

 

Can't find the course window (After reading Policy/Course Materials)

As you click on the Policy/Code button in the course, the course gets pushed behind that window – don’t worry, it's still there.

You can close or minimize the policy and the course should appear for you. Please do not launch the course again, as it's still active. Navigate back to the (minimized) course window and you'll be able to move on.

 

Error messages in the course

The course has most likely timed out for security reasons. Please check your network configuration and try again.

Error messages such as "a system error has occurred" or "error with course communication" usually mean that your computer has temporarily lost communication with the True Office Learning servers. This can occur when:

• Multiple applications and browser windows are open (because other applications may interrupt the flow of data streaming from True Office Learning)

• The internet connection is interrupted

• Connection is attempted during a system upgrade

To resolve the issue:

1. Close all browser windows and system applications

2. Attempt to connect to the system again

If you continue to experience connectivity issues, try to access the system via a hardwired (versus a wireless) connection.  If the error message persists, clear your browser cache or reboot your system.

 

Flash Player errors

Please click here to ensure that your Flash player is installed and is current. 

 

Network Connection error

Unfortunately, an error like this relates to your internet connection, not the course itself. However, there are a few things you can try to resolve this issue. Usually by opening the training in a completely different browser (if you are using IE try switching to Firefox), you'll correct the problem.

Additional actions to try:

• Close any browser windows not related to the course

• Close your email client

• Close any applications that may be using a lot of bandwidth

• If you are using a VPN or Citrix and have the option to complete the course using a direct connection to the internet, do so

• Clear your browser’s cache (see below) and load the course again

 

Course won't load/advance

Please try opening the training in a completely different browser (if you're using Internet Explorer, for example, try Mozilla Firefox instead). If that doesn't work, or isn't an option, please clear your browser's cache.

To reset your browser’s cache (browser specific):

Google Chrome Click the wrench icon in the upper right-hand corner and select Options From the menu on the left-hand side select "Under the Hood" At the top of the window, click the "Clear Browsing Data" button From the popup, leave the default boxes checked and click the "Clear Browsing Data" button Close the Options tab Close and reopen the browser

Internet Explorer Click on the gear icon in the upper right-hand corner called “Tools” Select “Internet Options” from the menu Under the heading "Browsing History", click the Delete button Uncheck "Preserve Favorites website data" (top box) and check the other boxes Click the "Delete" button at the bottom Click "OK" at the bottom of the window Close and reopen the browser

Mozilla Firefox From the main menu, select Options Click the Privacy icon in the top row From the center of the window, select the "clear your recent history" hyperlink Use the dropdown to select "Everything" and click the "Clear Now" button Select the "OK" button at the bottom Close and reopen the browser
