   Suddenly - not sure when this started as I hadn't tried to post anything for a week or two - I cannot write new posts.

   The tools bar has disappeared from the top of the posts.

   I can enter the title of a post. I cannot enter text in the main box - it doesn't appear. Though if I highlight it, it appears if something is there.

   If I click to view the html, nothing happens.

   I have de-activated all my plugins to no avail.

   Any ideas? Very very concerned. Am not an IT person at all - just an amateur blogger - but my blogs are important to me and I am concerend that I'll lose readers if I can't put a new post up soon!

   Have you tried:

   - switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

   - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

   - re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress.

   I tried switching to Twenty Eleven - no difference.
   I do not know how to reset the plugins folder but I deactivated every plug in. No difference.
   I have completely reinstalled WordPress on one site and even the now empty blog will not take new posts.
   Have tried different browsers and different computers. It just doesn't work!
   I am amazed that having reinstalled, it doesn't work.
   I did Easy Install using Softaculous.

   In any case, I have reinstalled WordPress completely on one blog. I have absolutely NO plugins installed now on that new blog. It is STILL not allowing me to post.

   Try adding define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false ); to the bottom of your wp-config.php file (just before the require_once line).

   I'm having the same problem. I just updated some of my plugins and now can't post, there is no text box, title box or tool bar at the top. I can't edit any old posts either. Is this likely to resolve itself as I am not very tech savvy and need to be able to post. It doesn't seem to have affected posting new pages. Please help!!

   Try this - it worked for me. I changed http://address.com to http:www.address.com
