Go to Dashboard -> System and Settings -> Permissions & Access-> Allowed File Types... and check to see if you have any file types listed. If not; add the following file types-

flv, jpg, gif, jpeg, ico, docx, xla, png, psd, swf, doc, txt, xls, xlsx, csv, pdf, tiff, rtf, m4a, mov, wmv, mpeg, mpg, wav, avi, m4v, mp4, mp3, qt, ppt, pptx, kml, xml

Now go back to file manager and you should find that the 'Upload' and 'Upload Multiple' options are now available.

Life saver - I had been working on my site all day and then in the last hour ( when things have gotten really tense ) no ability to upload an image.
The option was simply not available. I even went to a video on youtube on how to upload images, because I thought I was totally missing a step.

Your fast post worked like a charm.
thank you so much!

Too bad they don't reference it in the error message. That would have made my life easier and take less time to solve.

I just bumped into this today, but thanks to this suggestion, it's solved completely.

Thanks so much! I have been puzzled by this since I (recently) loaded Concrete5 onto three of my websites!

This made my life so much easier!

I'm posting this to a few threads in an attempt to tie up loose ends. We eventually discovered that the missing Allowed File Types list wasn't caused by one-click installers or the core upgrade script, but rather a couple of specific concrete5 Marketplace add-ons. See this thread for more info:
