 * Hi … i have version 2.6.3 … when i try to write a post & page, i only see the
   html version. I have:
    reloaded wp-admin & wp-includes. removed plugins (popular
   contest, wp-print & get image) and reloaded. followed many suggesions on the 
   wp support forum etc.., Nothing has worked to date.
 * My users profile does not give me an option to switch to visual editor – which
   is what i am after – as i know nothing about html (newbie)
 * Please advise how i could turn on the visual editor.
    Thanks!

 * It seems that there are a small number of us (having looked at similar topics)
   with roughly the same problem.
 * We’ve all had trouble within the last few days.

 * There are some plugins which disable Visual Editor. Deactivate plugins one by
   one, clear cache and cookies each time and go to Write Post/Page to check to 
   see which plugin conflicts with the Visual Editor mode.
