Exporting Book not working on Chromebook
My students on chromebooks aren't able to export their books after they sign them. They click export and nothing opens to save it but then it opens an "exporting" window with a moving bar. I had a student who waited 30 minutes and nothing happen.
Is anyone else experiencing this? And if you are, is there a solution? I'm having my students go through the MEE tutorials and make themselves cheat sheets for later... it's frustrating since the portfolio only lets you write a short caption for a picture.

Note: the portfolio works fine. It's just the book export that's not working. I checked on the student chromebook I have with a student account.

Update: it looks like it's an issue of looking at the ground when you right click to open the book to write, sign, or export it. If you hear an almost metallic "thunk" noise, it won't work. I had to test this a few times but that seems to be the issue. Kind of frustrating, but at least it works.

I had the same issue with portfolio not exporting - we switched to taking screenshots -- I will try your "fix" of not looking at the ground. - thanks for posting

Update: this only works "some" of the time and not for all students (seen via remote desktop support through chrome)... which is really frustrating. A lot of my plans relied on that to incorporate writing into my assignments, but I guess I'll just teach the students to use screencastify until this issue is entirely resolved...
