Dear Esmi,

I feel a bit of the fool….Clearing the cache/cookies did not solve the problem. However, I actually figured it out for real this time!

When clearing cache/cookies the Mac opens in a “safe” mode and the Hotspot Shield (VPN) that I have installed on all my devices does not automatically open up and “protect”.

I found that the HSS was causing the issue. It never used to so there must be a software glitch on their part.

I have written them and at the moment they are working on a “fix”.

But for now, you have to pause the protection and the uploads happen as before.

I hope this helps someone in the future and hopefully HSS will be able to fix this issue.

Best,

Dan

Dear Esmi,

I wanted to thank you for your effort. After spending 3.5 hours on the phone with Godaddy.com and two more phone calls with Apple Support I finally hit upon the solution and wanted to share because others may have the same issue.

The Apple Support person/Iphotos etc were not helpful directly but they did mention something about clearing my cache and cookies. I had no idea how to do that on a Mac etc. So, as a last ditch effort I asked how to do that.

I’m happy to say, I cleared the cache and cookies and now can upload my photos to WordPress.

I’m delighted! It took awhile…It was a simple solution. I hope this post helps others if they have a similar problem. Clear the cache and the cookies! Presto!

Again, I hope this will help someone else in the future…best,
Dan

I am having the same problem. I don’t know enough of the language you are using to for instance: disable the plug ins. I was able to upload photos one month ago.

Now, It goes into this mode where the loading bar shows 98% upload…then it goes to 100%…then it backs down to 96% and then it goes into this interminable “crunching” phase….then nothing.

What should I do?

Best,

Dan

I can upload what is in my Media Library to my post/blog as I tested it earlier today…just can’t add the pictures on to WordPress now for some reason

Well, I may not know much, but I don’t think it is the Internet connection. I’m watching movies on Netflix etc without a qualm. Also, I am able to upload other photos taken before this issue occurred a few days ago. So, I think I need a genius with infinite patience to help me! I have a guy in Mexico looking into it. It most likely is something I did inadvertently. I just don’t know enough to articulate it or remember…what I did…
Thanks,
Dan
PS I just took a photo now and tried to upload…it goes into Iphoto but not in my Media Library. Really frustrating…

I checked out that thread.

I don’t see a an area to size either but I have not got that far yet. My problem is: I can’t upload photos to my Media Library that I snapped in the last few days…I can upload all photos before a few days ago, however. I was in Puerto Rico a month ago and using the same camera. I’m in North Africa now using the same camera and the recent photos won’t upload. I don’t get it. I’m back in the States in less than two weeks. I’m not computer savvy enough to follow all the threads and will need some hands on help. I’m sorry to take up your time.

best, Dan

I tried using another browser and it still does not work with the photos I took a few days ago.

It will allow me to upload a photo to my post that is already in my Media Library. I just can’t seem to get my recent pics uploaded to the Library even one at a time. It gets stuck at “crunching” forever until I give up.

I’ll check right now, thanks!

It is version 3.8.1

I just updated everything today. I have noticed as well today that older photos are uploading. I just cant’ seem to get the ones I took here in Morocco to upload. I thought maybe it was the camera…too many pixels or something but I was able to upload my pics from another country taken with same camera.
