Support » Fixing WordPress » Flash uploader doesn’t open up OS browser dialog

  • Something weird is going on … and I don’t think it’s a browser or computer issue. When I click on “Choose Files to upload” via the “flash uploader” in WordPress 2.6.3, nothing happens. I can upload fine via the “browser uploader” but the flash uploader doesn’t make my OS browser dialog pop up. Anyone else experience this?

    I’m running Mac OS 10.5.5 and tried in both firefox and safari. I even rebooted. No luck.

    Oh by the way, I tried re-uploading “media.php” in wp-admin/includes but that doesn’t work either. It’s been working fine and then all of a sudden yesterday it just stopped…

    Seriously … no one? I’m still having this problem.

    Okay, I figured it out after a lot of Google searches. It was my version of flash. Apparently Flash 10 doesn’t agree with WordPress’ flash image uploader. So if you ever run into this problem, downgrade your flash to 9 and you’ll be okay.
