    In the last week or so I have been getting the following error message
    1605map.jpg The uploaded file could not be moved to /home/doncaste/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/uploads//2013/05

    When I try to upload a synoptic weather chart and other media such as photographs to my site. Anybody know why it might have started doing this?

    Thanks
    Chris

    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.

    Could you remind me how I access the directory?

    Using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.
