I actually recommend keeping that on, as it will keep your connection more secure.

Toggling that makes it so that things seem to work. I turned it off to try again, and things were broken. Turning it on fixed it.

Which version of OS X are you running?

The closest I can come to that is rebooting into Windows, where I had no problems.

You might want to update to the latest version (18) ASAP.

Specifically, what is the URL of the blog giving you trouble?

We always need the URL because the dropdown is only visible to staffers.

It sounds like a problem that a number of people are reporting. Someone has flagged this thread for staff attention, so hopefully they will have a fix for you.

Is there something fundamentally different about the OS X browsing environment that breaks wordpress?

Is there something I can do to resolve this? (Other than "use Windows to post blogs from."

When I go specifically to my dashboard or navigate the menu dropdown from my blogname in the top bar, I get sent to the "Add New Post" page but am unable to preview my post (it tells me the page doesn't exist).
If I publish a post and then go back to edit it, previewing the changes only shows the original post.

Further, if I try to alter the "status" or "visibility" nothing happens.

I have experienced this in Safari, Firefox and Chrome, and have made sure that 3rd party cookies are enabled.
