How do I upload a photo from my iPhone

[wdwmagic]

I've been having this problem and asked in a different thread for help and was guided here. Full disclosure, I have very little knowledge of the inner workings of computers and my iPhone, I just learn the procedure and it has always worked until a few days ago.

As always I go to Upload a file, choose file and that is as far as the site or my phone allows me to go. It flashes and does nothing.

This is a new iPhone 5 I was given by Apple last week to replace the one that the upgrade in software that killed my original phone a week ago. It has whatever the latest version is uploaded and the update to remedy many of the glitches of the new software. What I had posted is help or advise on what could be stopping the upload of photos. Could something not be set properly on my end with my own iPhone?
Like I said I never had issues before uploading from my phone so I am at a loss.

Are you on Wifi or using cellular at the time?

There are no known issues with iOS uploads that I am aware of, so it could perhaps be your internet connection at the time is failing.

Thanks, I have updated to IOS 9 but my photos in my camera must not be JPG.

All photos taken on an iPhone are jpg, so that should not be an issue.

This is since I went to 9. WiFi or data won't take the photos. I just tried again. Same problem @donaldtoo is having.

Are you using Safari?

Can you describe exactly what you do and the point of failure?

Yes Safari.

Certainly.

I click Upload a File

I click Choose a file, the choose a file icon flashes and then does nothing

I just went to DIS that seems to use the same forums or very similar to upload the photos and I was able to upload a photo without issue from my iPhone.

The only difference on upload a file I can find between the two , I took screen shots of both, is yours is:

jpg, jpeg, jpe, png difference theirs is zip, txt, pdf, png, jpg, jpeg, jpe, gif

as I said before I have no knowledge of how these things genuinely operate, I just follow the instructions and it worked until I went to iphone 9 upgrade.

I try again every few days, same results. Any new suggestions @wdwmagic ????

iPhone 5 upgraded to 9, 9.1 and now 9.2


If you go up a few posts we were having this conversation on October 3rd over several posts and @donaldtoo is having the same issue and now @Donaldfan1934
I can post photos from my iPhone on another sight which seems similar to the format of this one. But here is the last answer I posted answering your questions the best I could

I've just tested this on an iPhone 5 with iOS 9.02 and all works fine. I'm unsure of what the cause of the problem is because I can't reproduce it.

The only thing I can think of that you could try would be to clear your temporary internet files and see if that helps. SETTINGS, SAFARI, then CLEAR HISTORY AND WEBSITE DATA.
