Hi Community,
Thank you for keeping us apprised of the difficulties you are encountering when uploading your images. Our technical team is still investigating these uploading errors and will put a permanent solution in place as soon as possible, but I am still uncertain when we may be able to fully resolve the issue causing these errors.
The monitoring we have put in place to recognize when these errors are occurring and quickly resolve them definitely seems to have helped, but we understand that some users are still encountering difficulties of this nature at various times.
I will continue to update this thread as any additional information regarding this issue becomes available. We apologize for the continue difficulties and appreciate your patience as we work to address this issue.

Thank you.
It was better but tonight the problem seems to have reared its ugly head once more
I can confirm that uploads had trouble from 5:00pmEST time to ;past 7:00PM EST time Saturday 12/15
I can also confirm that all I did when the message about an Upload problem came up I went to the screen and clicked Upload again. It picked up from where it had left off. So time consuming yes but at least continuing was easy enough

SAME FOR ME. Does Auctiva still has Costumer Support?
Hi Community,
Thanks for continuing to keep us posting on the image uploading difficulties you are experiencing. As some recent contributors to this thread have noted, some additional uploading errors of this nature arose this weekend and we were able to make some adjustments to alleviate the errors.
Our technical team is still investigating the cause of these errors and we will put a solution in place to prevent errors of this nature from occurring on occasion, but I am still uncertain when we may be able to do so at this point.
I will continue to update this thread as any additional information regarding this issue becomes available.

Image Failures here also 12/18/12
I'm having this issue today. I can't upload and half the time I can't even search my Auctiva images. I keep getting:
An error has occurred during the processing of your request. Please try again or file a support case if this problem continues.
Please don't tell me to clear cache/cookies, because that's always the first thing I try!

Does regular support work on a Saturday? I just went to upgrade to the top plan to get live support and it said I had to speak to customer service, however they are only available Sunday to Friday.
All I can tell you is that they "advertise" 24/7 customer support.
Also, if I remember reading correctly the upgraded plan only allows 2 phone call per month.
You should double check that in case it has changed or in case I am remembering incorrectly.

Yep....trinkets is right again.
Here is cut paste of relevant part:
Expert help just a click away
Trained, courteous experts
Available 24x7
Access help by phone, chat or email
Just found it as I had thought before of possible upgrade when in emergency mode...but 2 calls month, for me I may need 4 in one month and then not need again for months and months...as when it rains it pours for me.
Anyone else had experience using their 24-7, 2 a month, if so please share you experience with us so we will know if we should upgrade for this service.
Thanks all for your guidance.

not to rain on anyones parade but being able to speak with the person on the phone who is the same person who responds in writing to us is probably a waste of money. we will see if anyone has had the opportunity to use the service. I hope I am mistaken.
Calm Like a Bomb....have you written support to ask about the 24-7 support and 2 calls a month, etc. If not you may want to do that. I know..sounds crazy to write support to ask about support? 
If you do please let us know what they say.
Ed, I really figured that.... but guess my hope would be since we pay (if any of us do this)...that phone support would be more knowledgeable or helpful than other...as getting 2 calls a month if you get a rep that is not so hot would not be so hot! As you really could make 3 or 4 on same subject within a day if they are not up to speed.
I am hoping someone who HAS used this will come forward with their experience on this. I know I have read on forums in past that a couple of people upgraded so hopefully they will come on and respond.
IF no one steps forward...maybe a new thread would ignite some interest as with subject being what it is, if they are not having same problem they may just ignore post so would not read this far down. If no response tomorrow, I may just start new thread asking about it (if I remember).

Hi Calm Like A Bomb,
I'm sorry to hear about the image uploading difficulties you encountered over the weekend. I was able to locate your support case and noticed that you closed it before we had a chance to respond to it so I am hopeful that means you are now able to upload images successfully once again.
We are still seeing behavior of this nature on occasion and our technical team is working to prevent these occurrences, but all I can really recommend if you encounter something like this again for now is to try again and see if you get a different result.
If you were to upgrade your account to include Live Support, you would be able to contact us via phone or live chat between the hours of 9 AM and 6 PM PST, Sunday through Friday. Although Live Support is only available during these hours, we still have representatives available to respond to written cases like the one you filed around the clock.
Even though our description of the Live Support options indicates phone support is limited to 2 calls of up to 30 minutes in length per month, we generally only enforce that subscription when we feel the system is being abused. I don't foresee it being problematic if you need to call in 3 or 4 times during a given month in general, as long as the calls are not excessive in length.
I hope this helps!

When I reach Auctiva image selection, the pop up page keeps running in to error. That means I can not choose the photos for the item being listed. My entire auctiva image managing does not load either, runs in to error.... Auctiva support seems to be still sleeping as well.
This happened 2 weeks ago as well and took them 2 full days to resolve. Is anyone else having these problems?
it only seems to happen to one of my auctiva accounts. Not sure why I am singled out.

Hi bluebirds15 (& ed neff),
I just received an update on this issue from our technical team and we believe the issue which was causing you to be unable to access the Select Images page is now fully resolved, so I am hopeful that you will be able to add images to your listings once again at this time.
Although we only saw errors of this nature with respect to a subset of accounts in our system, I cannot rule out the possibility that any given account could have been impacted by this issue.
I ended up posting an announcement about this issue on the following thread of the News section of our forum as well and have posted a similar update there: https://community.auctiva.com/e...1020411/m/1687067726
If you encounter any further errors of this nature moving forward, please don't hesitate to let us know through the open support case you filed on the subject earlier this morning.

Hi Mike
it seems the problem is back, I can not choose photos again. This is the 3rd time in as many weeks this has happened, and it took over 24 hours to fix last time.....

Anyone else having this issue. It is not letting me choose photos on the listing page, page always runs in error?
This is happening to me on and off for the last few months and have not heard back at all from the "24/7" support of auctiva

I am having the same issue....it is not letting me choose photos. Listings I do from eBay are effortless and easy, Auctiva listings have been getting very troublesome.
Between slow processing of listings, recurring uploading issues, mysterious changing fonts, disappearing/reappearing images, item specific bugs, and the fact that eBay lets you upload many photos for free now.....I am beginning to wonder why I use Auctiva.

Add to that the Auctiva doesn't even answer your complaints makes this all one wonderful experience. I still can't choose any photos on listings
Hi bluebirds15 & jmsswr,

Although I am still uncertain when we will be able to get this issue resolved completely, I will keep you posted on any additional information becomes available through this thread and any support cases you may have filed on the topic.

Problem still exists. It's been 4 days now. It seems that as soon as I choose on the image selection page to default to not show images in active listings, the system goes besirk. The picture selection freezes and site does not load any pictures from that point on. Absurd.
Another day has passed and still no response. And to think I am paying $40 a month for this service.
I wish I could get away with such customer service in my business.

first thing I would do is change my monthly bill and than ask for a refund
the Commence stores on the "other side" of AUctiva get special treatment in that Auctiva does little bits of custom code for them, if they ask. Also sometimes they are given access to the developers and other "tweaks" are done.

Hi bluebirds15,
Thanks for letting us know that you have continued to encounter similar behavior since the changes we made on Friday to improve performance in this area. I received the similar message you sent in through your open support case on the topic and our engineering team is currently looking into your situation further.
I will follow up with you through your support case as additional information becomes available. We apologize for the continued difficulties.

Tonight I cannot list because of this error:
"We apologize for the inconvenience. Due to the high volume of requests at this time, your request took longer than expected to process. Please retry your request again. If you continue to receive this error, please contact technical support referencing ID# f620cfbb-e910-4c1c-9d6d-a29d9aa5f0c0. Thank you."
Sunday my listings kept getting hung up in "processing".....some of them taking 5 minutes to post.
Last week it was image uploading problems.
Not to mention, the "item specific" bugs.
Auctiva used to make listing on eBay easier, and free pictures......now listing with Auctiva has become more troublesome than listing directly from eBay, and eBay has free pictures.........what are the advantages of Auctiva now?????
I cannot seem to find any advantages of using Auctiva to list anymore......

Yey! the problems are back! The images do not load again on the choose image page on the listing. You would think after 6 months of this problem Auctiva would have solved it, but you are wrong.
As soon as you choose not to include photos in active listings, the images refuse to load. No answer from the 24hr support staff either

Dear bluebirds15,
Thanks for letting us know that you have started to encounter this behavior again. I was able to reproduce this issue in your account a moment ago and have made our technical team aware that you have started to encounter errors of this nature once again.
Although we had previously done some work intended to minimize errors of this nature and things appear to have improved considerably since then, we will be making some additional changes during our maintenance period scheduled for this Thursday night which we hope will fully resolve the issue.
I was able to locate the support case you filed on this subject and will contact you again through that case as any additional information becomes available. We apologize for the continued difficulties.

Thanks for the reply, but I don't think it is reasonable to expect customers to wait until Thursday to see if you can fix it. We are being charged for this service. I can't take an unplanned vacation every time auctiva is down, many of us rely on ebay to make a living

It seems to be working again at the moment. Hope this is a permanent fix
It worked for a few hours this morning and as of now is not working again.
Hi bluebirds15 (& Community),
I am pleased to report that we were able to complete the additional work I had mentioned previously during our planned maintenance period last night. As a result, we are hopeful that you will not encounter any more errors of this nature when selecting images for your listings moving forward.
If you encounter any further errors of this nature, please let us know through your open support case on the subject and we will look into the situation further. I already replied to your support case earlier, but was inclined to update this thread as well in case anyone else who has been encountering errors of this nature has been following along.
Thanks again for keeping us apprised of the behavior you have been encountering, and for bearing with us as we have been working to get the issue resolved.
