wp-content not loading files

Hi I hope someone can really help me out ..I can’t upload files the normal wau using :

Tools: / Import: /Wordpress

i get this message: Howdy! Upload your WordPress eXtended RSS (WXR) file and we’ll import the posts, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, and tags into this site.

Choose a WXR file to upload, then click Upload file and import.
