can't select files \ attach files with safari

Hello origamyth,

Thanks for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If we understand correctly, you are unable to add attachments using Safari. We can understand why you'd reach out for a solution.

Have you checked to see if any plugins or extensions might be hindering this in Safari > Preferences > Extensions? Also, let's see if you can add attachments using safe mode.

How to use safe mode on your Mac

Cheers!

Hi, origamyth.

Many of us are having a problem uploading files on Safari 14.0.2.

There is a known issue with uploading files in Safari that started with Safari 14.0.1 (and many threads about it here). I am still having the problem with 14.0.2.

Dragging and dropping the files to upload seems to be a work around till Apple fixes the problem.

Or you can try a different browser. File upload works normally for me in Firefox, and seems to be working for others in Chrome.

Also, file a bug report, as many of us have.

You can read more about the problem here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252051818

Hope this helps.

Thanks for trying that origamyth,

Does this only happen on specific websites? Also, if you disabled your Adguard, can you then add attachments?

Take care!
