1 Photo failed to upload
Summary: Multiple participants are experiencing issues uploading photos to a listing platform, suspecting it might be a bandwidth problem, especially during peak listing times. They tried various troubleshooting methods like restarting devices, switching browsers, and clearing caches, but these attempts were unsuccessful. Concerns are raised as the platform reports no issues, indicating a possible lack of responsiveness from technical support. Some humorously suggest alternative listings to cope with the frustration.
Made a listing, photos uploaded without error. Second listing, similar photos, same device, perfect photos, 2.34MB, sharp, well exposed, no naked flesh; repeated error message "1 Photo failed to upload". Closed down eBay. Closed down computer. Made a coffee. Started again; SAME ERROR.

·Aug 9, 2026 at 11:15 AMSame! 30 mins ago, able to load 30 pics. Now @ 7: 15 AM EST, approx 60 pics failed to load (the size is fine) . Current system status shows nothing. Restarted laptop, switched browsers, cache is cleared, and still no pics will load! They are loading on 2 other platforms, so I know it not my pics.

OPAug 9, 2026 at 12:00 PMI think this is an eBay bandwidth problem; on Sundays more auction sellers put up 7 day listings: it gets more buyers. My line is copper, my browser Edge. Google AI suggested a) Using a different browser (doubtful) b) Using eBay spreadsheet listing template (complicated, ask Google AI) c) Listing a white sheet of paper, which uploads immediately. and then clicking modify listing, which lets you into a more tolerant eBay interface. Other ideas ... list at a quiet time ... list tee shirts with 'eBay Sucks' printed on them (this will only make us all feel better, but go for it!) ... Best!
