If you were facing these problems it is most probably due to the Flash uploader not working properly with Flash version installed on your system.

**Solution**:

The simplest solution to fix this issue is to go to,

*Global Configuration –> Systems –>Media settings.*

And select ‘*No*’ for ‘*Enable Flash Uploader*’ setting, and save the settings.
