In reply to: Add Media isn't WorkingYour host does maybe not have the correct MIME-types on their server. Or is the filetypes not allowed on your host.

In reply to: jQuery conflict – theme vs pluginIt’s hard to tell without looking at the theme and scripts. It seems that there are LOTS of scripts in the template, so it could be that the scripts are not properly enqueued.
More reading about that: http://wpcandy.com/teaches/how-to-load-scripts-in-wordpress-themes/
You could also try this plugin (it do not help if the scripts are not properly enqueued however):

In reply to: Add new Theme downloadedHow did you install WordPress? On some hosts you install by One-click installs. Sometimes you can do a “Simple install” or “Custom install”. In other threads similar to this one, people with Dreamhost installing with “ONE-CLICK Custom install” had the same problem (that may apply to other hosts as well).
Also, if you run a WordPress Multisite install (but I assume that you do not, however) you must go to Network admin for adding themes.

In reply to: Add new Theme downloadedClick on “Appearance” in the WordPress menu. Find your theme and click “Activate”.
Else you may need to download the theme to your computer and unzip the theme. Then upload the theme folder with FTP to your “themes” folder.
Sometimes themes comes with extra content, and the actual theme folder is in a parent folder.
Ex: TheTheme.zip
Unzipped: Read me! (text file) PSD (folder) Plugins (folder) TheTheme (actual theme folder that should be uploaded).Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: deactivating cURL for jetpackI don’t quite get what you want. But it seems that the problem is that your host or webserver does not have cURL installed. That is something that your hosting company only can fix.
