Proctoring Troubleshooting Guide

For an optimal experience, we recommend using the most up to date version of one of the following browsers:  

Camera check failed  

If your camera access check has failed, there are a couple of points to check:  

  • Ensure the Camera is plugged in and accessible  
  • Ensure no other programs are currently open that are accessing the camera  
  • Try your camera in another program to check if the issue is device or browser related  
  • Check the security permissions & settings of your browser to ensure the right devices are selected and allowed access to our website (If you're on a Mac or iPhone, please check your device security settings also allow access to your chosen browser)  

If issues persist, please try accessing the application via a different device or connection (for example, mobile hotspot).  

Cannot see self during proctoring setup  

If you cannot see yourself whilst recording, please ensure the following:  

  • Your camera is connected and unobstructed including removing any security covers  
  • The correct camera is chosen under the browser and device settings  
  • Try your camera in another program to check if the issue is device or browser related  
  • There are no other programs open during recording that could be accessing the camera instead  

If issues persist, please try accessing your application via a different device or connection (for example, mobile hotspot).
