Unable to train BOFF

in Xbox One Gameplay Bug Reports
I have a BOFF (Diplomat Level 4 Orion Fed) with the temporal operative specialization, and I am unable to train her in the Uncertainty Burst III. I have no problems training with other manuals, but this one comes up with a blank image and only option is to cancel. This has been going on for several months, I just meow got around to finally doing something about it.

    I have the same problem. The skills are simply greyed out...

    Obvious question: Is the training manual in your inventory?

    I have the same problem, just finished crafting a Command specialization for one of my BOFFs, the specialization is highlighted and I have more than enough XP to spend on it, but when I click "OK", it just boots back to the Officer Specialization window with the prompt to train or cancel.

    It's working now.

    Another BOFF skill to add to the list of "untrainable". There are several ground skills that cannot be trained at this point as well.

    I have the same issue with the Julian Bashir BOFF and attempting to train the Destabilizing Resonance Beam abilities. All the manuals are in my character inventory. It says the ability is available to train, but behaves like the manuals are in my character bank instead of my inventory. So, I've been unable to train that BOFF.

    I realize you may have already done this, but if your officers are trained in multiple specializations have you switched them to the correct one. In other words make sure they are set to Temporal, Command, Pilot, Miracle etc.

    And for those that don't know (I only found out recently despite playing for a long time) yes you can train each officer in all of the specializations. Just thought I'd mention that as for so long I thought they could only have 1 specialization which is why there were so many bridge officer slots, turns out I was stupid. :p

    I have purchased 2 training manuals from the winter event vendor for my bridge officers. On 2 different STO characters. I have tried several times in multiple locations to use the manuals to train officers but the game acts as if I do not own the manuals even though they are in my characters inventory. Im sure its the correct manual for the correct officer. Chains of gre'thor 1 and anchor of gre'thor 2 or the manuals. Have tried logging out and back in. Tried mult locations such as space dock, ship bridge, ds9, new Romulus. Game thinks I don't have the manual even though I do.

    I am having the same problem with my tactical and engineering officers. I have grethors chains 3 and anchor of grethor 3 in my inventory but can not train my officers. It behaves as if I do not own the manuals.
