  For the first time ever i am having problems uploading photos to my blog. I usually use the flash uploader but today it’s not working and a pop-up has told me that “Shockwave Flash has crashed” This means nothing to me – does anyone know what this means and of course how i fix it??

  Thanks for any help!

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

  I’ve been unable to upload photos for 2 days. Really odd, as it’s never happened before. Any ideas?

  Log out of WordPress.com, clear your browser cache and cookies, restart your browser and then try again. It could be a corrupt file or cookie issue. If your browser is outdated you will continue to have issues like these. You can upgrade any browser version here.

  If those do not work for you then work you way through all the troubleshooting tips in the support documentation.

  I’ve been having the same problem. Was this ever resolved? I updated the flash player.

  Hi,

  That didn’t work for me. It’s weird. The pic appears for an instant and then disappears. Any suggestions?
