 * There is a bug somewhere. The visual editor is not working since last upgrade,
   and I am not the only one having this problem. Text edit works.

 * If you have some kind of ad block in your browser, it blocks the visual editor.
   I have AdBlock in the Firefox browser, so I can only use the text editor in the
   Firefox, but can use both the visual and the text in the Explorer.

 * I have the same problem. Editing in the Text View is fine, but clicking the Visual
   tab to show the Visual view shows nothing – it’s pane is completely blank. Clicking
   Text goes right back to the Text view and I can continue editing. I haven’t added
   any plug-ins for years; any suggestions? Resetting the whole site to defaults
   seems like a last resort. The url for the Add a Page screen I was just testing
   on is [http://joninge.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=page](http://joninge.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=page).
   The text editor works fine and I can publish new and updated pages without a 
   problem, but I can no longer see what they’ll look like in Visual View before
   posting, which is a tad scary.
