Why can't I upload or attach from Desktop or Dropbox?

I just upgraded to the Mavericks and when I try to upload or attach a file from my Desktop or my Dropbox all the files are grayed out. I have to go to "All Files" and find it there - which takes forever if it's an older file because "All Files" doesn't have folders! Help please.

I don't see the browse tab from the ebay site to search for the picture I want to upload
I've had that incomplete browse tab thing happen - where there's no button to click - and concluded it's either an eBay issue or an ISP issue. However, for me, I was able to come back to it half an hour later and no problem doing the photo upload.
Were you blocking pop-up windows at the time?
I've also had the photo fail to upload, but never (yet) failed on the second attempt. I determined that the failure was due to my starting the upload process too quickly - before my thumbnail was showing after selecting the photo to be used. I just had to wait a few seconds more in the process to resolve that.

Why can I not upload any images from my iPhone 4 to my Macbook Pro? Please help!

Hi all,
I'm pretty much tearing my hair out with this one, I don't know what to do - I simply cannot upload any photos from iPhone 4 to Macbook Pro.
This problem appeared out of the blue. I am trying to upload to iPhoto - not working. I have clearing the cache - not working. Tried the Dropbox app - not working and the option has now disappeared altogether. Tried Image Capture - not working. I went and had my iPhone replaced altogether - still not working. I thought it might be a problem with my iPhone or a problem with the back-ups or sometthing so I plugged in my boyfriend's to scope it out - still not working. I have restarted all devices many times. I have read through posts and posts about this and cannot find an answer.
iPhoto says: unreadable files - unrecognized format - not true!!
Image Capture just says there is an error importing.
Any help would be much appreciated - it's driving me mad!
Thank you!

I am assuming it's not a problem with the iPhone has I have tried several iPhones and had the same problem.

Why can't I upload a picture from my desktop to put with an ebay auction

I purchased an Intel Based Imac, 24" screen, in November and initially had problems uploading pictures from my desktop to put with my ebay auctions. After several attempts I was able to complete this task. However, 4 days ago, I'm now no longer able to upload any more pictures. I'm experiencing one of two problems, either I don't see the browse tab from the ebay site to search for the picture I want to upload, or I'm able to click the browse tab, choose the picture I want and start the uploading process, but soon after the picture starts to upload, the process stops. I'm able to do this task on my PC laptop. Any ideas as to what is wrong?

Why can't I email photos direct from iPhoto?

Why can't I email photos directly from iPhoto, or even attach them to email?

I get a dotted frame outline with an exclamation
This is the source of all the problems. iPhoto can't mail the files because it cannot find them.
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming it's 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Why can't I post my resume from Pages to the web or an email on my iPad?? I've tried using iCab, downloading google docs, etc. I understand it's not possible from iPad but why???

Why can't I post my resume from Pages to the web or an email on my iPad?? I've tried using iCab, downloading google docs, etc. I understand it's not possible from iPad but why??? If I can't use safari to do it is there any other way?? Seriously, are iPads only used for watching Hulu, playing games, fb and twitter? My phone can do that!! Worst $500 I ever spent.

We don't want to email it..... we want to upload it.
Then why did you say (emphasis added):
Why can't I post my resume from Pages to the web or an email on my iPad??
There are plenty of methods for putting a resume online, where a potential employer can download it, though admittedly the iPad is less flexible in this regard than a computer. Nobody ever has claimed otherwise. However, I get the feeling you're not actually looking for an answer to anything, and you're just posting to complain. Note that that is a violation of the Apple Support Communities Terms of Use, which you agreed to when signing up for an account here.
I wish I had gotten a Galaxy Tab.
Then sell your iPad and go buy one. You will have no problems whatsoever finding a buyer.

Why can't I delete a pic from iPhone album in ios8?

Why can't I delete a pic from iPhone album in ios8?

Now that you mention it, my parents don't need to see my playlists, either. Hadn't thought of that.
I accidently stumbled on an "ad-hoc" workaround that helped me. The downside is that it only works with smart playlists so it may or may not work for you. But here it is anyway:
Smart playlists will not be uploaded to the cloud if they refeence another playlist on the cloud. So I created a "catch-all" smart playlist and added a reference to that in all the smart playlists I don't want to share.
I also noticed that playlists with more than just music are not uploaded. You could add a short video or something to the playlists that are only for the iMac. This obviously won't work if your daughter needs them on her iDevice.
I know these aren't good solutions, but I hope they help someone.
Cheers,

Why can't I print a pdf from my mac pro to my printer?

why can't I print a pdf from my mac pro to my printer?

Don't know! You'll have to give us more details of what's happening when you try. Can you print other documents OK? When you try to print, does the printer icon appear in the dock - click on it and see if there are any printer messages.

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

Sorry ?
An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

Why can't I print a document from iphone5 to hp wireless printer?

Why can't I print a document from iphone5 to hp wireless printer?

Try the following steps.
Power off the printer.
Reset the phone by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
Power cycle your router. Disconnect it from power for about 30 seconds and then power it back on.
Once it has completed the reboot, then power the printer back on and make sure it connects to the wi-fi network
Open the content on the phone that you want to print and attempt printing it again.
If that does not do it, then check to see if there is any newer firmware for the printer from HP.
