Change the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.

Esmi,
Thanks for the information, but that’s WAY to complex for me to attempt (I’m a total novice)-I wouldn’t know where to begin. The warnigns alone scared me. I guess I’ll just have to keep cutting and pasting.
Thanks!!
If you have purchased a hosting service, you can contact your provider to take care of this.
I cant upload images/files to my post using the buttons: upload image -upload video or upload object.
when i do a click over on of these buttons, they sent me a flash uploader: when the bar is filled, it gives me the option: “are you sure you want to do that?” (in spanish)/ and “try again”.
I only can upload images using the library option but it takes lot of time, because I have to check the url, then copy`/paste the url in the post using html.
how can i make the flash uploader work?

Hi DrDClutter,
Contact your web hosting service provider and update them to grant the 755 recursive permissions to wp-content folder. 777 permissions may lead to the hack of the part of your blog.
Thanks,
