I decided to give it a try. I hit the reply button, clicked on upload, clicked on browse device, went to my pics, found a pic of my jeep, clicked upload and this is what i got. Not sure why you can't, hopefully you will be able to find a way to make it work for ya

.heic is an apple specific photo file. Convert it to a .jpeg or .png file when downloading. Had the same issue downloading pics from my iPhone.

You need to change the file format of the photo. some files, will not upload to the HDF server.

A simple option is just to convert the photo file to a JPG extension. You can use a photo editing program or just do it manually by renaming the file with .jpg as the extension.
