  Hi, I am already at my wits end and just about ready to go back to blogspot. I am trying to upload images and I keep getting this error in red that says simply HTTP error. Now I have this blog because I like writing but that’s about it, I don’t know the technical side that much. I have been trying to find a solution through Google but I can’t understand all of it, I don’t even know what version I have. I am not hosting my own site, I just pay for the domain. Please help?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi!

  I still have almost 9GB free space.

  I’m using an HP laptop with a Vista OS

  Browser is Mozilla Firefox 35.0

  Yea, these are accepted files. it’s in jpeg format, I was able to upload the first photo out of around 47 photos.

  Thanks for responding to my query!

  I did resize the photos first too and I have a wired connection. I believe I’m already subscribed, only option I see is “unsubscribe from topic”. Thanks for helping out!

  Hi there!

  I’m sorry you’re having trouble uploading your images. Are you by any chance running an update on your computer, or streaming a live show, Netflix, Hulu, or something of the sort?

  Can you run a speed test and let me know what the numbers for download and upload are?

  Hello! Thanks but I already have this sorted out after reading off some other posts. Apparently, if I use the shortcut to post new entry, I get that error. But if I go inside my dashboard and do it the old fashioned way, I am able to upload photos.
