Course Cartridges - Frequently Asked Questions

I have course cartridge materials that I would like to import into a master course. What special steps must be taken to ensure that the import process is successful?

Once the master course has been created, the cartridge materials should be imported before any other materials are added to the master course. Otherwise, the cartridge import is very likely to fail.

I have tried to copy from my shell course to my actual course and keep getting errors.

Most course cartridge content is intentionally copy-protected so you cannot copy it. Unless the cartridge manufacturer has specifically told you that you should be able to copy it from one course to another, you will need to get another cartridge import key and use that to import to the actual course before any other changes are made to the actual course. Once the cartridge has imported into the actual course you can add other content and make other changes.
