You probably don’t have write access to that folder on the host machine. Log into the FTP and go to the wordpress/wp-content directory and check if you have write access enabled.
Also, some hosts don’t let you upload certain file types. Does it work with images but not movies?
Hi-
I’m having the same issue.
The permissions are set to 775.
The 2 red alerts I get are http error &
An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later.
This happens from different computers as well as IP addresses. It is a new blog and we have not yet tried to upload to the media library previously. I am sure that I can upload pngs & ppts to the server, as I am the server admin.
Please help.

Thanks Kristopher, you were right. Now it uploads BUT all the images are not visualized and have the “broken file” icon.
I checked in the wp-content folder and noticed it created 3 different files in 3 different sizes for each image I uploaded, and they look alright but are not visualized in the post!
thanks
nic
