I have been unable to upload new documents or photos to our media gallery. I get two different error messages: “Error saving media attachment: or “The uploaded file could not be moved to wp-content/uploads/2013/12.”

Any help would be great!

Can you check for file permissions for wp-uploads directory and post it here?

Thank you! Could you tell me how to check that? (Derp – I’m new to WordPress.)

Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.
