You cannot include hyphens and other similar characters in the file name - keep it simple and rename it for what it really is, the re-upload

Change the name of your photo and try again. Naming them also will help you to find that picture in future, since there is no other filters in there.

You need to use a name without special characters as determined by where you are uploading the photo.

Dave Parker Had similar problems depending on which device I am using. Best luck with jpg. Make sure filename is simple like 'sunset' not sunset1b*

Huge photos will not load either. I have more problems with iPad than laptop or tablet.

Sometimes it is trial & error with more errors than my patience can handle.

Good luck.
