Uploading items in EL
Hi guys

I really need help with this uploading thing in EL. Well, first of all, I am using the lastest version which is 2.5.195. And yes, everything looks simple, edit items, add them to upload list. After that, I am then totally scerwed. Right clicking on "items to upload", 2 opitions only, which are"delete" and "empty upload list". Select and right clicking on the items in "items to upload", same menu pop up as exactly what shows in "my items" excepting the option " add to upload list" being gray this time.
So, anyone had any idea what's going on and how to get this work?
Thanks in advance

PS: network is connected, and I can download my items which I just tested. Runing on Win7 which I don't think this is gonna be any problems. any tips guys?

Update:
Wow, I finally found the solution...there are some drop down menu above the window where your items are showed, which a drop down called upload does the function... well a small suggestion, as the whole point and the most important reason of people who use EL, could it be a bigger or obvious large button sticked somewhere else, just like Microsoft Office Outlook, which a large button called "send and receive all email" at the top right corner in every taps, or, maybe a new option added next to the tool bar with the name of "action" drop down " upload"/"upload all" or something.


Hope my post could help those who have problem with uploading in EL..

Glad you found a solution.  Another little tip once you have your items in the Items To Upload list, you can list them a few at a time or all at once.  You simply highlight the ones you want to list (by holding down ctrl + left click on each item) then click on the Upload button and choose Upload Selected Items.

I often have several items to upload and want them uploaded grouped together or in particular order so the Upload Selected Items works well for me.

Cheers

Hi, you do not RIGHT click on the Items To Upload (in the bottom left hand corner of the EL screen)

You LEFT click and when the items appear on the next screen, you highlight those you wish to upload (as described above), then go over to the next tab Schedule Start Time (if you wish the items to begin at a later date/time), then go across to the next tab Upload, which gives you the choice of uploading highlighted/selected items, or all of the items.

Personally, I never use the Upload and Activate buttons at all, nor any drop down buttons
