Several potential causes, including the quality of uploading, your Internet connection and site errors, may result in the "Upload Failed Please Try Again" error on Facebook while uploading pictures. When you receive the error message, Facebook immediately stops the current upload, so determining the cause of the error is essential to resuming full use of Facebook. Troubleshoot to resolve the error responsible for the message.
Facebook Photo Uploading Rules
Unlike other social networking and photo hosting sites, Facebook imposes no restriction on the number of photos you upload to your account. It also doesn't limit the size of individual photos. As a result, your error never results from trying to upload too many photos or too many large photos. If you attempt to fill an individual album with more than 200 photos, however, a message indicating the album is full appears. If you use a mobile device and upload more than 100 photos via mobile, Facebook automatically creates a second "Mobile Uploads" album.
Internet Connection Problems
If you receive an error message that the upload has failed, make sure you are still connected to the Internet and that the connection speed is good. One way to do this is to open an additional tab or window in your Web browser, then load a popular website like Google or Bing. Take note not only of whether the website loads -- if it doesn't, your Internet connection is malfunctioning and you should reset your modem or router -- but the speed with which it loads. Slow connection speeds may interrupt or terminate a Facebook photo upload.
Temporary Site Errors
Intermittent site errors may also be to blame for photo uploads failing. Although Facebook doesn't display overcapacity messages like Twitter, its servers are nonetheless only able to handle a finite amount of activity. If your Internet connection works fine and you haven't attempted to overstuff an album but still experience problems uploading photos, wait a few minutes and try the upload again.
Partial Uploads
Before you try to upload again, however, visit the album to which you tried to upload photos to make sure some of them haven't already uploaded. In instances, Facebook error messages don't mean that your upload has failed entirely, but rather that it is not possible to finish the remainder of the upload. Make sure no photos have been uploaded to avoid duplicate uploads.
