Hallelujah! Finally I can upload my photos after mucking around without success with the chmod, htaccess file, swfuploads, turning off plug-ins, upgrading of PHP, Adobe flash upgrade, etc and all the various suggestions in WordPress forums … I was not alone in this with the common sentiment that this is “incredibly frustrating” …
In the end it turned out that if I put the full URL path name to the files for upload (in Settings >Miscellaneous) and leaving the “Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders” option unchecked that did the trick … *sigh* And I finally get to go to bed at around 1.30 am.
Would I still install the latest updates/upgrades the next time round? You bet I would as the fear or inclination not to try new and challenging stuff(s) and a refusal to accept changes is certainly a sure way to become dull and OLD (and there are heaps aplenty of ‘old’ young people around!). Bring ‘em on! Yeah. But not so soon please OK!

Hi there! I’m off for that walk after something stressful, and it sounds like you need a little time on the waters yourself. All the best.
Good for you. I still haven’t upgraded. I tried but it didn’t take, so I put the old one back. The last upgrade cost me enough frustration as it is and that was not long ago enough for me to go through it so soon!
