I had the same problem yesterday and today. I was using Internet Explorer and the Add Media button wouldn’t work. I switched to Mozilla Firefox browser and now it works fine.

I am having the same problem. I have tried it over and over. I am also having trouble when I am on a page and I want to highlight a word and connect it to a link. Instead of connecting it to a link, it takes me back to the “post” page, not the “pages” page. I’m very frustrated. I have a deadline with 400 parents trying to view their child’s work on my blog.

How do I switch to Foxfire? I appreciate all of Timethief’s help, but am not computer literate enough to do any of it. Can anybody explain some of this in more simplified terms? So sorry and thanks. :)

Thanks again timethief. I’m learning, slow but sure. How did you know that the threads were tagged
staff assistance? -

I know the threads were tagged because I tagged them. Apparently it’s an IE issue, as those who downloaded Chrome or Firefox (latest versions) are up and running.

Howdy,
We’re working an issue that’s impacting folks using Internet Explorer 9.0. While we’re getting this fixed, would it be possible to either upgrade to IE 10 or to use Firefox or Chrome?
We’ll post an update at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/dashboard-issues-on-internet-explorer-9?replies=1
Thanks for your patience!
