  1. If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

  2. If you are using an IE browser in compatibility mode please disable that mode. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  3. If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/

  (a) Try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

  If applicable see here for instructions on how to clear the cache for Chrome and Safari on the iPad:

  5. Try using another browser.

  6. If you are not successful let us know:
  (a) Exactly what kind of device you are using to connect to the internet and to WordPress.com.
  (b) Exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://www.whatbrowser.org/

  Apparently I resolved the problem by going thru internet explorer rather than MSN to log into wordpress.

  Recently I had trouble uploading images from my files to on-line photo printing sites that always worked.

  For some reason MSN no longer works for this task???????????????

  Thanks for your help
