<p>I keep uploading my additional information document, and have done so both as a .doc and as a .pdf file, but while it uploads successfully, clicking "View Document" downloads a .aspx file which I can't view on my computer. It opens on notepad and is not what I submitted.</p>
<p>I don't care if I can't see what I uploaded, I'm just afraid that colleges may not be able to. Or is this just something wrong with the Common App?</p>
<p>Sorry I can’t help with your problem but I have a similar issue so I didn’t want to start a new thread. I have been trying to upload my essays since yesterday but I get ‘upload error’ every time! I’m working on a macbook if that helps? I have tried to upload the essays in doc & docx versions, just in case (although commonapp says that it accepts both).
Could someone please help me? Thank you!</p>
<p>Maybe it’s the Microsoft Word version. If your using Word 2007 try converting the documents into Word 2003.</p>
