    Thanks. As I mentioned in my original post, I have reviewed the Apache error log, and it’s empty.

    I understand that no one can be expected to divine the issue with this site, but I would still appreciate any thoughts/guesses/similar experiences anyone can contribute.

    Thank you. I have already read the standard instructions for creating a custom 404. However, as I mentioned, this theme already has a 404.php file, and that file is not being served. Instead, a certain WordPress page is being served as the error page. Thus those instructions about 404.php don’t seem to apply.

    I did try adding this line to .htaccess, to see if that would trigger the correct default flow:

    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404

    No effect, though.

    Got it fixed – thanks for the help. As you suggested, I disabled all the plugins, and found that the media library selector worked right. (I had to put the site in maintenance mode for a few minutes, but it was more than worth it.) I then added them back 3 at a time, and quickly isolated the culprit, WP Ecommerce. Apparently it needed updating to the latest version. Once I took care of that, the problem vanished. Thanks a bunch!

    Thanks for the reply, David. With the Media Library link active and All Media Items selected, the screen is still blank.

    I am running WordPress 3.5.1 with a heavily-customized version of Thematic. Relevant-sounding plugins include:

    • WP E-commerce with Gold Cart
    • jQuery ColorBox
    • Piwik and Clicky analytics
    • Redirection
    • Widget Context
    • WP Hide Post

    When accessed through its own menu item, the media library shows all the images correctly.

    Any other info that would be helpful?

    I’m still talking to myself here I suppose, but I thought I would post back what seems to have been the cause. I installed mod_pagespeed on the server the other day, and I believe its cache may have been responsible for the difficulty. I placed an .htaccess in /wp-admin with the following code:

    <IfModule pagespeed_module>
ModPagespeed off
</IfModule>

    The visual editor resumed working properly when I did this.

    It’s just one blog, no multisite, so I guess I won’t be able to use a remote development domain. I do have a local dev version from when I originally made the site, I will just use that for theme development.

    Thanks!
