Are you running a browser and version of it found at http://browsehappy.com? If not, upgrade.
Uploading images into your Media Library does not embed them into posts or pages.
Have you exhausted your free media storage space?
Check here http://leeoliveri.wordpress.com/wp-admin/upload.php
If the answer is yes go to Adding Storage Space
https://en.support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/If the answer is no, then have you tried dragging an image straight from your desktop or computer’s image folder and drop it directly into your post’s editor?
If you prefer you can click on the Add Media button from the toolbar of your editor to upload an image to your post.

I have the right browser version and have not used up my free media storage. I have tried repeatedly to drag and drop without success. I reviewed all of the links you shared but none of these give me the answer to my issue. But thanks for trying to help.
I finally just sent myself the photo in an email saved it to my ‘pictures’ and then was able to copy it to my media library. Cumbersome, but it worked. -
