  For 2 days now I have been unable to upload photos, cannot schedule posts in advance, WordPress stats will not show, Freshly Pressed doesn’t show and the little number in the upper right hand corner of the page is not clickable. What’s going on? Thanks, Jo

  Same here – well, I can see stats, but can’t upload photos and can’t create web links. Haven’t tried posting because I can’t finish the post!

  Are you using IE in compatibility mode? If so, disable it.

  Go to ‘tools’on your browser (up at the top of your page), and you should see “compatability view” and “compatabilty view settings” – under the latter you should see a list of sites which you’ve added to compatablity view – if your blog is in that list, take it off. That’s how it worked for me anyway.

  You add a site to compatablity view by clicking that little fragmented page icon up at the top of the page -hover on that and it explains what caompatability view is.

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html
