Problem uploading images to PowerStore 3

Power Store 3
Mac ox 10.6 firefox 3.6.2

I am getting file format error (Please enter a valid file .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .png.) any time i try to upload images into product category.
I have tried with all the above formats but to no avail.

Any help please

Double check that the imagesupload folder allows Read and Write for all users.

You can check this in Dreamweaver:
In the Files Panel, change the View Dropdown list to Remote View.

Select the imagesupload folder, right click on it and select Set Permissions. The permissions should be set as:
Owner: Read, Write, Execute
User/Group: Read, Write
Everyone: Read, Write

Another thing to try is adding the following code to the admin/Products_Insert.php and admin/Products_Update.php pages at line 1:

php:

<?php

ini_set('memory_limit','256M');

?>
