P: Cannot upload reference image [merged thread]

I’m currently unable to upload photos to Firefly for editing, despite the service working for only about a week and a half. Considering the cost, this disruption is unacceptable. Please address this issue promptly or provide a full refund.

unable to upload frames for video or to create an image
I just paid for more credits for nothing!  I am unable to upload images, to the platform and the video editor is not working as well

Can't upload an image as first frame for video generation but I am still paying full price, this is more than unfair

unable to upload frames for images
This is the reason I want a refund, I pay for the credits and when I atrmept to use them fire fly will not upload the pictures for images or videio at times. I have to complete my projects  timely. Very annoying and not worth the money. And why can I not buy credits without a monthly fee.

I've been unable to upload reference pictures in Adobe Firefly while generating or editing images for days now, it's extremely annoying as that is the principal use for me and I pay for Pro version.
When I choose to upload images from my computer (it is irrelevant if through dragging and dropping or from a folder), nothing happens.

I have had consistent issues uploading photos into the firefly image generation tools.
I try to navigate file browser, and drag-and-drop, it will not load in my photo. I used to be able to do it all the time.

Hi ​@AudaceCom ,

 

Can you please try another browser as a test and see if it works? What OS are you using?

 

Thanks,
