Xebax Theme – Backend not working: Cannot upload photos

So i split this up into 4 sections.
1. Theme Information
2. My Issues
3. My Theories as to Why the Issues Exist
4. What I am Looking for as far as a Solution.

THEME INFORMATION:
I have the theme Xebax from “WebInPixel” on themeforest.

I bought the theme a long time ago and had it saved, and I never used it. I recently found it in some old files I had and i uploaded because it had a lot of cool elements in the layout that i liked (header overlapping the whole website, changing background).

This is the theme live on the creator’s website: http://www.webinpixels.com/xebax/

Here is a website I came across that had the theme active with their own modifications: http://TinasheNow.com/site (coming across this website made me think of a similar theme i had, and upon digging through my million files discovered it to be the same theme)

MY ISSUES:
I am trying to get my site similar to that singer’s website with the slideshow and such as well as the layout’s basic features. For some reason on the backend under the ‘Theme Options” section, the page will NOT let me upload any photos on the backend for the, which is:
1. Site Logo
2. Fav Icon
3. Thumbnail Navigation Photos (the Ft. Images on the homepage like TinasheNow.com)
4. Background photos
5. Social Networking Icons.

It recognizes that there is an upload button for each field, but when I click them they do not pop up window in order for me to upload anything.

There is also an option on the backend for the “Slider” and you can set the rate at which the photos change, which I am guessing is for the background. How can I add a slideshow at the top like on that TinasheNow.com site?

Now, after I can get these elements working, I plan on modifying the layout a bit…So i am not trying to exactly copy either site, but of course it is the same theme.

I do believe whoever made the TinasheNow.com website, or possibly someone else, bought the exclusive rights for that theme as it is not longer available for purchase :/.

MY THEORIES:
1. I have the newest version of WordPress and the backend Theme Functions might not agree with the update
2. I have a mac, so I use Safari or Google Chrome, and the functions I am trying to do may only work with the newest version of internet explorer.

WHAT I AM ASKING FOR:
I am just trying to figure out how to get these functions to work! If anyone has this theme, please let me know if you have had an issue!

Now, I know this is going to be a hard issue to fix since this is a backend question, but if examining my “Theme Functions” file can help, here is the coding for it.

<?php

If I can edit any of the files in this code manually in order to get my photos/date made

require_once(XE_BACKEND . '/panel.options.php');<br />

	require_once(XE_BACKEND . '/panel.functions.php');<br />

	require_once(XE_BACKEND . '/post.meta.php');<br />
	require_once(XE_BACKEND . '/shortcode.class.php');<br />

Then i will gladly do that. If you can help, let me know and I will post (or send you privately, since this is a paid theme I’m not sure how much of its coding I can put publicly) and we can figure out a soluation!
