That means you have a connectivity issue or a browser related issue that you need to correct.
1. If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.
2. If you are using an IE browser in compatibility mode please disable that mode. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html
3. If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/
(a) Try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050
If applicable see here for instructions on how to clear the cache for Chrome and Safari on the iPad:

(d) Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/
Add both *.wordpress.com and *.wp.com to your list of trusted sites under the Security tab. Make sure to uncheck the box for “Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone.” http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/#frequently-asked-questions
4. You can use this link to see if your flash is up to date. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ If it’s not then go to http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ and download and install the latest version of flash.
5. Try using another browser.

This was the most thorough, comprehensive and helpful reply…not to mention within a reasonable time frame, that I have ever received from WordPress. I need to upgrade my connections but I guess most of my problems are answered here when I have the time to go through them all…and I will. Thanks for the help.

It won’t really take as long as you may expect to go through all your settings and make sure you eliminate what may cause what you describe. If you still need help afterwards post to this thread again and provide what’s in (6) above.
