ETA: Almost everything I said in here was incorrect -- see my reply immediately below for instructions that actually work.

You don't mention which editor you're using. I had this problem with FCKeditor and solved it after quite a lot of trial and error. Here are a few things you can try:

  • Double- and triple-check that all your permissions and profiles are correct, both in IMCE and your editor.
  • Switch to a default theme like Garland to see make sure that your theme isn't causing the problem. If that solves it, make sure your theme's page.tpl.php has a <?php print $closure ?> statement just before the closing <body> tag, as described in http://drupal.org/node/234422#comment-800148
  • If you're using FCKeditor, you can force a "Browse Server" button as described in http://drupal.org/node/327462#comment-1212105 -- note that if your Drupal install is in a subdirectory you'll have to change the path as described in that comment.

Good luck,
Andrea

ETA: Actually, it still doesn't work for me, because I don't see the "Send to FCKeditor" button on the upload dialog :-(

Scratch my third point above about forcing a "Browse Server" button. Here's what I did to make it *actually* work. Again, this is with FCKeditor:

  1. I went to /admin/settings/fckeditor/ and selected a profile and clicked on "Edit"
  2. On the "Edit Profile" screen, click on "File Browser Settings". For "File Browser Type" choose "IMCE". I set "Allow Quick Uploads" to "true", but I don't know if that's actually necessary.
  3. Next you have to edit a few files, as described under "How to Enable the File Browser" in the FCKeditor Drupal module readme.txt. Refer to that file for precise instructions, but these are the files you'll need to edit:
    • /sites/all/modules/fckeditor/fckeditor/editor/filemanager/connectors.php/config.php
    • /sites/default/settings.php

Incidentally, the brand-new Image Resize filter from Lullabot looks like a terrific option for WYSIWYG image resizing.

Best of luck,
Andrea

Use the "IMCE API Bridge" module !
It was created in this purpose. It adds the bowse buttons in the image and file window.
Works perfectly !

You link to the IMCE Wysiwyg Bridge module, which is for integration with the WYSIWYG module, not the FCKEditor module. As far as I can tell, the IMCE Wysiwyg Bridge module will not do anything to alleviate problems integrating with FCKEditor when using the FCKEditor module.
