I upgraded my OS from Mohave to Big Sur 11.1 and the problem is solved - My understanding is that the new version of Safari is integrated into the new OS. Now the Upload button works on all sites that I tried - Amazon, Shopify, Etc...

Same here. After updating Safari to 14.0.1 I was unable to upload any files. Called Apple support on 11/16/2020. They had me on hold for 45 minutes. When they finally connected me with a technician, I was on the line with him for another 40 minutes and resolved nothing. He suggested that I install Chrome or Firefox. Unbelievable, Apple installs a crappy update, they can’t fix it, and their solution is to install someone else’s software.

I'm able to upload images to my website using Firefox / Mohave 10.14.6 OS. Also, it still works fine on my other iMac with Safari 14.0 / Catalina 10.15.7 - but I cancelled the Catalina / Safari update on that Mac for now just to be on the safe side.... so can't tell if it's specifically a Mohave / Safari issue without first doing the update.


Now I'm wondering if I should just go straight to Big Sur on that one instead of taking a chance with the update. Anyone tried that yet?

I really don't want to start reinstalling the operating system - that is a slide hammer to crack a nut. Not a route I want to go. I have had to stick with Mojave for some 32 bit software I use all the time, which is unlikely to be updated any time soon.


I guess I will just have to use Firefox, but it does upset me.


Sigh...
