    UPDATE to original issue: now it works. Short version: used Chrome on Windows instead of Mac browsers.

    When I went to reproduce issue for tech support at my hosting provider, the Custom Header > Header Image > Select an image… feature worked after all.

    The only difference was that I worked from a Windows browser (Win 7, Chrome Version 28.0.1500.95 m) whereas I tried earlier from Chrome, Firefox and Safari on two different Macs (MacOS X 10.8.4 “Mountain Lion”). I had also tried a Windows browser but now don’t remember which one and didn’t test as thoroughly on it anyway.

    I will re-try on a Mac tonight. I don’t know whether to hope it will work or not…

    I will post to my hosting provider’s support next, in case it’s something environment-related or tied to my choices during installation.

    Mike, your advice is good, but I want to WIN. ?? More seriously, this issue makes me nervous what will turn up next, and getting it solved will be good for my relationship with WordPress.

    I ran across instructions for doing your suggestion (replace one of the default theme header images with my own) in other posts and am sure that would work.

    Thanks, Mike.

    Yes, I can. I hadn’t actually tried until you asked… Using wp-admin I created a new post and used the “Add Media” button to place an image previously added to my media library.

    The result: https://middletonia.ca/blog/?p=28
