  Greetings, I have been using wordpress.com for a while, and Now I found a problem, I think you are updating something because the button to add media is not working for me.

  I usually clicked the button to add media and then a small windows shows over the screen to select my pictures to upload. Is not happening. but if i click the button with right click and choose “open in a new tab / window”, then the window to upload files appears but is useless.

  I tested this with mozilla firefox and google chrome and is the same problem.

  I am having the exact same problem. I created this blog fairly recently, but I am not having this problem for blogs I created several months ago (using the same template even). Haven’t found a solution yet. I think it’s a bug on WordPress’ end.

  EVERYONE is having the same issue.

  There are some very unusual issues going around right now. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/uploadinsert-media-buttons-not-working?replies=10 I suggest waiting it out while staff are working on the issues.

  Same problem. Fingers crossed its working again soon. I tried to empty cache, reset safari, checked adobe flash player was up to date but still no luck.
