Thanks Neil
In which case, I suspect that it was once working, but Turnitin broke it at some point between version 2.5.8 and 2.6.1 of their Blackboard building block.
I have a Turnitin support call logged and will let people know what transpires.
best wishes
Andy

Cheers andy
I just tested my approach on our system and it worked fine.
We're on Bb oct 14 with BB basic integration 2.5.28.

Nice suggestion, Neil, but it doesn't work for me.
At a previous institution, when we moved to the Blackboard April 2014 release, I'm fairly certain that Student Preview worked with Turnitin - I remember encouraging staff to use it to show their students how to submit.
On our Oct 2014 Staging server (we upgrade for real next Monday) the Student Preview feature does not work with Turnitin.
I get a Blackboard error:
Installed version: 2.6.4
Student Preview mode is not supported.
However the Turnitin Blackboard Basic release notes claim that this error was fixed in 2.6.1:
Added function to handle users in 'student preview mode' (functionality is blocked).
Useful, although disappointing, to know that other institutions are experiencing the same issue.
best wishes
