I can't find my CAPA assignment in the CAPA dispensory in the basement.

You can get your CAPA pin number by using the CAPA pin getter at the bottom of the CAPA logon page. Your pin number will be emailed to you. You can then logon and see the questions on the screen.
I am entering the correct answer, but CAPA keeps saying
it is wrong.
Please recognize that you are a mortal human being, not a god, and
you are capable of error. About 4 to 10 times a week, we receive
reports from students who claim that CAPA is wrong. In every single
one of these cases in the last 4 years, CAPA has been correct and the student
has been wrong. Please be aware that almost all the problems used
in CAPA assignments have been checked many thousands of times.
Part of my CAPA assignment appears on my computer screen, but part is cut off with the message "Transfer interrupted".
This happens when you hit any key or click with the mouse while the page is downloading. Sometimes, when internet traffic is high, it may take many seconds or even a minute to download the whole page. Downloading is not complete until you see the message "Document: Done" at the bottom of the screen. If you touch anything on your keyboard, your PC interrupts the transfer to service the keyboard command. Moral: be patient, don't click anything till you see "Document: Done".
