When I load my blog in Safari or Chrome (and sometimes Firefox), either the photos don’t load at all, or I may see the photos for a moment, but then they are replaced by question marks (Safari) or other icons (Chrome). I’ve only had this problem since upgrading to OS Yosemite. Can someone help me fix this?

I captured the HTTP headers, in case that will be helpful to trouble shooting this.

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

Hi there!

I didn’t seem to have any problem loading the images on your site:

Is there a particular page that you’re having trouble with? Or is it your entire site? Do you experience this issue with other sites as well?

I also have problems with Facebook. I think it is a Yosemite problem, although Dropbox may also be a factor – I disabled Dropbox at login, and now can see my blog photos without problem.

Interesting! It sounds like you’re having network issues. Dropbox can take up a lot of bandwidth when you sync it with your computer. One thing that may help is setting Dropbox to only sync the folders you need direct access to on your computer. Here’s a guide for doing that:

I just had to do this with my mom’s computer because she was having similar issues. Especially if you have a folder full of music or video files that gets changed regularly, this could take up a lot of bandwidth. So if you don’t need to those files on your computer all the time, it might be better to unsync them from your computer and access them through the web interface instead.
