cleared brower cache, tried logging out, tried incognito browser, tried rebooting.  Will try a different brower and have my fingers crossed!

Hey ​@warm_sharpnessf1a2 ​@glamorous_artistryc46c 

This is by no means the best fix. Another user pointed this out as a temporary workaround.

Editing Multiple images: Temporary Fix

Open firefly, sign out then use as you normally would. Add your reference images and write your changes you want, hit generate. It should ask you to sign in. Sign in and hit the edit image button, it will then go back to what you were trying to do whilst signed out but your reference images will be there. Hit generate again and it will do its magic. Hassle is if you want to do more editing, you will have to do it all again, but use the newly edited image as your first reference image.

Hi neogden2!

Thanks for writing in. I can see more than 1 reference image option. Could you please share a screenshot that shows the issue?

Hi warm_sharpnessf1a2!

Thanks for writing in. Could you let us know which feature and model you are trying? Do you see any errors while uploading images?

I don’t get any error...just click on the box to add the reference and nothing happens. Using what generate images defaults to Gemini 3.1 (Nano Banana 2).  Everything was working until mid day yesterday

Try a different model or a different browser. You could also clear your browser cache to see if that helps. Thanks for sharing the details, hope we can help.

Hi Spirited_intelligencee841!

Thanks for writing in. Have you tried it on another browser? Also, check the resolution of the image you're using; very high-resolution images might cause issues.

 

Let us know how it goes.

Was uploading several images to put together a group of people in the image to be generated.  Was having to problems loading up to 5 images.  

Took a brief break and came back on to find I can only load a single reference image and have to do that as an upload.  Unable to add from Cloud or update an image already loaded for reference

I cannot upload more than one reference image. Been ok for last 2 months until now since I upgraded to pro plus.
