Click Screen Options in any Edit Post or Edit Page and ensure that Post Thumbs is checked.
it’s not even listed as an option there either.
My apologies. I was thinking of another edit post pane. Have you tried:
– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
– 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.
I had this problem too. It was a theme issue. Featured image works if the theme has post-thumbnail support.
Add this line to your theme’s functions.php file:
add_theme_support(‘post-thumbnails’);
In existing posts this did not work completely* but for new posts it did.
*(could be due to the Get-the-image plugin I have installed)
nothing is working. i think this must be a network site issue…hmm.

I was having this issue and after about half an hour of searching found the resolve to my problem in this post.
You need to go into the Network Admin > Network Settings, then scroll to the bottom and make sure that Images is checked off as an allowed upload type.
Once that is done, Featured Images will work.
