No one has been able to print a shipping label through PayPal since yesterday afternoon. Tried everything, and still won't work. The Community Forums on ebay have many posts about this same problem, so it needs to be fixed asap.

I talked to PayPal tech support today, they say are aware of the problrm and working on it.
I downloaded the Chrome browser and it appears to be working using Chrome for now.

As I asked in my earlier post in reply to others experiencing this same problem; If this is a system wide problem, why doesn't PayPal post a notification about it?
I too eventually figured out I could use CHROME as a workaround the problem with printing shipping labels. But I wasted a good two hours trying all the suggested updates and alternatives when a simple notification by PayPal that they were aware of the problem and working on it, as well as suggesting CHROME as a temporary workaround, would have saved me and countless others valuable time.
I guess the heading on the PayPal login page is true:
Like any good friend - PayPal can keep a secret.
I am a long time faithful PayPal user. But come on PayPal tech support, when you are AWARE of a system wide issue, post a NOTIFICATION. It is the courteous thing to do, and would save users a lot of time and worry. No big secret.

This happens to me too on rare occasion. This can be a tricky one because computers are dumber than dumb and cannot recognize an odd space, period, comma, or abbreviation in an address verification.
You have to help the computer out to make sure there is NOTHING out of place in that address. It may look the same to you but to the computer if you have an extra space somewhere in the address, or a coma or period, any mispelling, or if STREET is spelled out when the computer wants to see only ST or the same for say Northwest, the computer needs NW only. Try deleting the entire address then manually re-enter the information shown as the suggested address by the address verification. It has got to be EXACTLY the same.
You can check Zipcodes at this USPS site: https://www.usps.com/nationalpremieraccounts/findzipcodes.htm
On rare occasion even that does not work which leaves me stumped, so I just print it up in ENDICIA.
good luck kiddo

Add my voice to the chorus of people who could not print the label (was getting "Processing . . . . please wait") but then tried Chrome and it worked.

It's working for me if I use the Print Label button in eBay but it is not working from PayPal's website. If I have to purchase postage for something not sold on eBay then I am out luck.
I can't image this being down for everyone. What's the common thread? I use Windows 8.1 and IE 11. I have tried Chrome and Firefox. Neither worked. Is it Windows 8.1?
