Can't add anything to timeline

What type of file are you using? Have you tried a few different types
of files, such as images, sound files, videos, etc... Also, can you
try running openshot from the terminal:
$ openshot

It might have an error message that would be helpful.

Thanks,
-Jonathan

this sounds very similar to my agenda, but openshot was working perfectly all day until i tried to edit the length of time on the picture somehow and since then it has been having the same issue. the picture clip was of a cd cover and i have used the same pic for other vids its time was 5 seconds in length and i tried to edit the time so that i wouldn't have to keep on dragging and dropping the same 5 second pic a hundred times to cover the length of the song.
