  I have a contributor to my site that uses Safari. He is unable to add media to his posts because the Add Media button does not show up. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround or fix? Thank you.

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

  It’s impossible to help anyone we cannot communicate directly with. This is what the person you refer to needs to do:

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

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com please do these four things:

  1. Try clearing your browser’s cache:

  2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled: http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

  3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

  4. Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  YIKES! I just read that again. Ignore what I said above.

  Contributor
  A contributor can edit their posts but cannot publish them. When a contributor creates a post, it will need to be submitted to an administrator for review. Once a contributor’s post is approved by an administrator and published, however, it may no longer be edited by the contributor.
  
  A contributor does not have the ability to upload files/images. http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/
