I can't load photos on Photobucket

Post Reply New Topic

Hi, I have loaded photos onto Photobucket in the past, but for the past few months, I can't. The reason is that the button for putting photos on there isn't there anymore, and I can't figure out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.

Which method do you use to upload photos? since I have never had issues with that site. Do you use the bulk uploader or do you upload the photos one at a time?

I load one at a time. I have never tried the bulk loader.

That's odd, I just tried loading one picture 10 minutes ago and it worked. Do you have a regular or pro account? From where are you trying to upload photos? (From the computer, internet, etc.). I have only uploaded photos on there from my computer, so maybe the process is different to upload pictures from another source. Also, if you have not visited photobucket in a while, the uploading process could have changed.

I have a regular account. I have always taken the photos from my pictures file on my computer and loaded them to Photobucket by the internet. The uploading process does seem to have changed.

I use to upload photos without any problem. Once I would log into my account, there would be a button or something to click on that said upload photos. Now, there is nothing on the page that says that. It's like it has vanished, but yet other people have it. I am using the same computer and the same Vista.

Another thing that has changed for me is when I am on Youtube, there used to be a tab that would pull down that would say "Download Video," now it's gone. But on the computer where I work, the "Download Video" pulldown is still there.

Have you tried using another computer to upload your photos by downloading them onto the computer where photobucket works for you? I have never had this problem so it is hard to know what is causing it.

Switch to dropbox. Its free, no ads.

It allows the photos to remain on your computer in a public folder. You just drop them in there(possibly in a sub folder). Then right click a photo, find dropbox in the menu list, and get public link from the sub menu that appears.

There is a video at the site that explains how it works(and its much easier than a photo host).

When you no longer wish to share a particular file, simply delete it.

Hi Petitesouris. I tried using another computer, and it's the same thing---nothing to click on to download my pics like I used to have. The one computer (HP 5000 series) was the one I had used before, and then over the summer the download box is gone. Now I am using a Dell laptop and still no download box. Thank you for responding.

Hi Fuzzy. Thank you, I will try that. I appreciate your help.
