  I followed the directions to install Press this. I have a Mac and it does not work. Dragging it up to my toolbar and/or right clicking it does not work either. I would like to get more traffic and content to my site. Please advise. Thanks.

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

  I am trying to add the Press This button to my page, but it does not work. I drag it up to my toolbar, but it does not “take”. Neither does right clicking it. Can you please help? New to this. Thanks.

  Sorry I don’t know how to help with that. Another Volunteer may be able to help but I tagged this thread for Staff assistance so it doesn’t fall through the cracks.

  What will be helpful for Staff is knowing:
  (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://supportdetails.com/
  (c) Exactly what you experience including what any error reports you receive state.

  Will you provide a screenshot for Staff please? I’ll tag this thread for their attention. You can use http://snag.gy/ to share screenshots and link to them here. If you use the WordPress.com guide screenshots you can and upload it to your Media Library, and return to this thread to provide the file name so Staff can examine it.

  Without the information timethief requested above, my best bet is that your bookmarks bar is hidden, so there’s no where to save the bookmarklet to. Here’s some steps to show the bookmarks bar in Safari.

  If this isn’t the issue you’re having, please answer timethief’s questions and I’ll take another look. :)
