Painful Problem:
You could not Upload/Insert images or any media into your post after upgrading to Wordpress 2.8.4
Cause:
This problem is caused by a conflict with one or more Wordpress plug-in.
Quick Fix:
Make sure you have updated all plug-ins into a Wordpress 2.8.4 compatible version. Here is a list of possible plugins that may cause this problem.
- Tagaroo Wordpress plugin
- Wordpress Amazon Plugin – Apparently this plug-in is not updated anymore so you might want to check out this post to make WP-Amazon work with newer versions of wordpress.
- HeadSpace
- PodPress
This list is not complete. If you know other plugins that may cause this issue then I would really appreciate your comment below.

I could not insert images/media after I had to erase/reformat my hard drive following a failed multiple software update (iTunes, QuickTime, Security Update).
I tested the plug-ins one by one. The solution was to delete the “CATEGORY ICONS” plug-in.
Thank you paul for your input.

Thanks – that worked.
For the better part of 4 hours scoured the net looking for a solution. Tried ‘em all. Stumbled on this. Deactivated Podpress. Boom, Flash uploader works like a charm. Thank you so much.
Thanks! The only one I had was the wp-amazon plugin. The linked file at the newer version also didn’t work for me, so I don’t have this function anymore — deleted the this plugin and now everything works again.
Sociable also has this annoying problem. Deactivated it and now it works.
