[...] Found this describing what I’m experiencing and a solution (which I can’t do as a user); however comment 1 suggests turning off Google Gears, which turned off Google gears for my site as directed, but it didn’t fix anything. [...]

This randomly happened to me way after I had upgraded, so I’m not sure what that’s about, but I did F5 on my MacBook, and that fixed it.

Hi, This problem is not specific to those who have installed Google Gears.. I haven’t installed Google Gears..

This was something wrong with the WordPress auto-updater which was causing this problem by not copying JS file while upgrading from older version.

I don’t have gears installed, any chance to solve this problem?

I’m getting error 500 on wp-tinymce.php

Basically if in case it is required we may just need to press CTL+F5 on our browser to get the javascript reloaded.

Thanks for the suggested solution. What I did was to delete and reinstall the tinymce plugin and then wait for about 3 hours. I read in another site that sometimes we have to wait for a few hours. Your technique was definitely much easier. But before I decided to wait, I tried everything suggested online and failed to get tinymce to immediately work.

I was stumped on this as well. I discovered the problem was with Google Gears caching a broken version of the Javascript in http://blogs.digitss.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/wp-tinymce.php?c=1&ver=3241-1141. I didn’t even have to reboot, just went into Google Gears and removed my site from the list of sites that Gears is enabled.
