It might be like Photobucket. You need to change the file name somehow or add an - or an _ to make it now work.

Change the name. WP.com is really fussy about that. You always have to change the name.

I uploaded a Word .doc file. I have a link to it from a page and it works fine. I had to make changes to the .doc file. I deleted the old file from the media library and loaded the revised one. When I look at the new file--it is still the old file, no changes. Tried again, tried again. Finally, I changed the name and uploaded it and modified the link to it and it now works okay. Can I not reuse names in the media library even if I first delete the old one? I also noticed that AFTER I deleted the old .doc file, the link to it still worked jsut fine. Strange...
