Trouble Uploading or Submitting Your File to D2L?

Make sure the filename contains only letters, numbers, hyphens and underscores. Only use a single period in the filename — just before the file extension (e.g., .docx, .pdf). 

Do not use special characters in the filename such as extra periods ("."), slashes ("/"), ampersands ("&"), colons (":"), question marks ("?"), quotation marks, pound signs or hash marks ("#") and asterisks ("*").

Be-The-Difference.docx will work as a filename for upload to D2L.
Ring.Out/Ahoya&MU#Rah*Rah.pdf will NOT work.
