I'm trying to simply copy and paste any element from text to design etc. And I get the error "media failed to upload, please reupload it".

What am I doing wrong? This has never happened before and I can't seem to find a fix or a setting that helps.

Thanks in advance

I get the same error tying to add images or backgrounds from the asset search panel. Chrome for web. Is this an ongoing bug?

Hi @primitiveshaun,

 

Thanks for reaching out! Could you please share a screen recording of the issue you're experiencing? 

Did you try using the other suggested browsers (Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome) or incognito mode to see if it makes a difference? 

 

Also, try clearing the browser's cache and cookies, and restarting the browser and try again. For more information on how to clear cache and cookies check this link- https://adobe.ly/4a5ipUF and how to use incognito mode- https://adobe.ly/4a2UzZV 

 

Regards,

Thanks @Amitej S !

I just tried on the mobile version and faced the same issue (see screen recording below). I used my iPhone [model # MLMT3LL/A running iOS 18.5] with the newest version of the app 28.2.1

I have this problem using .png image files. It worked for me at the beginning of the year and then hasn't worked the past few months. I am using chrome and but have experienced this in chrome and safari. The media is still in my library because I can go to the media and select it and start a new project with no issues, I just cannot add media from the side bar to my open project. (screen recording at bottom)

For the past few months I have to drag and drop the image file into the project. I have tried uploading it directly to the media library first to see if it truly was timing out or something and not fully uploading to the cloud; but it is the same issue regardless of method of media upload that I have experienced so far. I am a part of a team account and our team has 1 TB of storage and we have only used 7.3 GB , so I know it has nothing to do with syncing to the cloud and storage issues. (screenshot below)

Hi, thanks for posting here.

Can you please confirm the media format you’re trying to upload? Since when are you facing this issue? Have you tried uploading from a different device or from private/incognito browsing mode? Does it happen with a certain media type or evey media format isn’t uploading?

Also if possible please share the media you’re trying to upload so we can investigate on our end.

 

We are here to help, just need some more info.

 

Best,

Frustrating that there's no guidance. It just stopped working for me randomly, same for you?
