Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given us, this does not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and converting it to a question in the support tracker. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise problems you are having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if you are uncertain if they are bugs. For help on reporting bugs, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#When%20not%20to%20file%20a%20bug. There is also a vibrant support community available at http://askubuntu.com and you might consider asking your question there.

Tried a different browser?

Are you still experiencing this problem? If so, please let us know whether or not it occurs in a different web browser application as well. For example, if you had been using Firefox, you could install and run Chromium (provided by the package chromium-browser). You can install packages in the Software Center.

If it works in a different browser, we would still help you to try and get it working in your original browser. The reason actionparsnip asked if it worked on a different browser is that this information is the first step at narrowing down the cause of the problem.
