  Are you trying to drag and drop the images over and into the dashed square, or are you trying to use the “select files” method?

  Also have you tried the browser uploader (link right under the dashed rectangle)?

  I’ve the same problem. With up to date browsers and flash. Why there’s not a “classical/safe” version of upload images?

  There is, if you can get the upload image page to show from within the editor. You can click on the “browser uploader” link below the drag and drop media uploader box.
