 * Hi to everyone, I have an issue, as the title says is basically that when I want
   to install a theme inside the Dashborad instead of the normal lightbox where 
   it says “Install theme”, nothing appears.
    I deactivated all the plugins and 
   nothing, I don’t know if is about the new version or anything else, so if is 
   about the new version the WordPress’ developers will be interested in this, thanks,
   krate.

 * Yes I’m using the 3.3 beta so this bug (if it is a bug)should be important for
   the WordPress Developers.

 * Moved to the right forum first off! 😉
 * It works for me on Beta-2 and the latest version of trunk, on Chrome.Lion.
 * What browser are you using?

 * If your are installing theme from your computer then just extract that file and
   upload theme directory on your server if you are unable to install the themes
   through themes option.

 * [@ipstenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) Hi, I used another browser,
   and it works (Firefox), so I think that the reason is just for chrome, and any
   of the extensions that I have for it.
 * [@chip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chip/) Bennett I’m able to istall
   the themes, but no with the iside function of WordPress that uses the lightbox,
   and that’s just for my personal chrome.
 * [@elantechnosys](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elantechnosys/) As I said
   I’m able to install the themes but not with the lightbox, that’s all the themes
   that are in the WordPress repository, but I’m able to use the wordpress upload
   function, I just say that for everyone is easier to usthat option instead of 
   using FTP all the time.
 * Thanks to all of you to answer, as I say is just for me, and there’s not anyone
   else with that trouble, I believe that one of the chrome apps could be the trouble.

 * Ah, yes, if you have extensions on Chrome, that could do it 🙂
 * I’m going to flag this resolved, since it’s not WP, but Chrome.
