Title: wordpress 3.5 image upload error Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # wordpress 3.5 image upload error * Resolved [foxtrotpress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/foxtrotpress/) * (@foxtrotpress) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-image-upload-error/) * hi all, * i’ve scoured many of the forums and have tried all of the suggestions in order to make my media uploader work properly again. After I installed wordpress 3.5, my images are no longer uploading in my posts or in my media library. i have done the following to try and fix the issue: – reinstalled 3.5.1 – deactivated all plugins – manually replaced all WordPress files except for wp-content via FTP – switched theme to twenty twelve * nothing has worked thus far. i’ve never had an issue with uploading images in the past and now i can’t figure out how to fix this. any suggestions are greatly appreciated! thank you!

If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s). * – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems. * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F) by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems. * – re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from a **fresh** download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones. * Thread Starter [foxtrotpress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/foxtrotpress/) * (@foxtrotpress) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-image-upload-error/#post-3473388) * hi esmi, * yes, i have done all of those things to try and fix the problem and nothing worked. * is there something else i can try? * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-image-upload-error/#post-3473398) * Site url? * Thread Starter [foxtrotpress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/foxtrotpress/) * (@foxtrotpress) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-image-upload-error/#post-3473400) * [http://www.foxtrotpress.com](http://www.foxtrotpress.com) * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-image-upload-error/#post-3473404) * I can see images on your site.

I tried all of your solutions. I tested my media and cyclone slider 2 on [http://www.dewebstek.be/koenroete/fotogalerij-6/](http://www.dewebstek.be/koenroete/fotogalerij-6/) and everything works fine. But on [http://www.koenroete.be/fotogalerij/](http://www.koenroete.be/fotogalerij/) I cannot upload files, not though Media nor through Cyclone slider… since I accepted an update… What can I do?
