I am moving my wordpress from live to local, to make some changes and then upload it again on a new host. When I finished uploading the XML, some images were missing, and now I am unable to upload THAT images. I can upload any other one, but for some reasons, even if i resize in photoshop, change the filename or any other thing, I cannot upload that specific ones.
The only time the image shows up in WordPress is when i try to edit it.
Does somebody have any idea?
Thank you!

I found the problem, if it can be useful to somebody. The site I was editing was in brasilian portuguese, and some pictures had special characters in their filenames like ç or ã. I went through all the wp-content -> uploads and substituted these characters and solved
Can you use a FTP client to check the permissions of those image files. Sounds like they are lacking read/execute permissions. Typically permissions will be
755 full control for the owner(you) and read/execute permissions for everyone else
