Has anyone else had trouble uploading images? It just stops as it is uploading and then I have to start over. I have also gotten partial pictures with 1/2-3/4 of picture missing.
This new uploader slows you down enough and now this.

I am using an older version of FireFox but have a similar issue. the work around I have found is to make sure all my pictures are 1600dpi or smaller on the largest dimension. if I try an upload and let Auctiva "adjust" the size it freezes as you and others have mentioned. I had chalked it up to my using an older browser but that was okay with me as I have no plans to update the browser at the moment. I also agree the the new uploader is a lot slower. while Java could be a pain at least when it worked it worked faster
Same problem with me. Cleared my cache but loading keeps freezing. Tried uploading just a few images at a time. that worked for a short period but now having trouble with just 12 images. Much prefer the old image uploader. Have just opened a support case with Auctiva.

in my case there is no error message it just "hangs" I refresh (press F5) and lower the DPI on my pictures and the upload goes fine albeit it a lot slower than the older version. it
recently even pictures that are 1600 on the largest dimension have a problem sometimes. it seem to be ones where the dimension are almost 1600 x 1600. is a shame Auctiva didn't keep the old version available for folks with older browsers. The removal because of Chrome seems short sighted.

Hi,
I've been having the same issues that everyone is complaining about. When trying to bring photos in to auctiva it sometimes work ok and most of the time it freezes allowing you to bring the photos in but not upload. You then have to cancel and re-do again and again and again. Sometimes it works ok and other times it does not. I don't understand why it will let you choose 13-14 photos and then it freezes and won't upload them. It takes so much time away from working. There is just too many steps to this new uploading system. Hope the Genius that thought of this one didn't get raise with it? I have notified auctiva and always tell me to clear my cookies and cache. Seems to be what they tell everyone. I do this all the time and still have problems! It's just so frustrating!

Hello Everyone,
I am wondering if any of you are still having the same uploading problems (freezing). Uploads so many then stops and doesn't let you load any of them. It works fine for hours and then all of a sudden it decides to stop working and I have to get out of it over and over again until finally it decides to work. Support Team keeps telling me it's my antivirus. They want me to not use NORTON as I'm sure many of you are. It makes no sense to me. If it was my virus-ware, it would happen all the time but it doesn't. I am so frustrated with Auctiva-there answer is always clear your cache! I don't know about anyone else but I certainly do this all the time!
Ok, I've vented enough for now just wondering if anyone else is having this problem too?

I am having still having this same issue. I takes FOREVER to load pictures anymore. I can't spend an 1/2 hour to load 50 pictures ( 1 or 2 at a time because it will freeze if I do more). Auctiva, you need to fix this or I am gone. I pay for this service for ease, but this is taking all the ease out of it! I don't have the time to spend talking to support or updating my browser every time you make changes.
