I am aware of already existing relevant ticket #1091168: compatibility problem with module jquery update, however since it was reported back in 2011 and has Closed status, I've decided to report that CK Editor doesn't work with the latest jQuery Update 7.x-2.4. Reverting back to 7.x-2.3 fixes the issue.

The same problem. CKEditor stopped working with jQuery 1.9+

CKEditor 3 & 4 work fine with any jQuery version because it does not use jQuery at all.

Please post the CKEditor versions you tested with.

Wysiwyg and CKEditor works fine with all jQuery versions I was able to test with (up to 1.10 in jQuery Update 7.x-2.4).

If you're getting actual JavaScript errors, please post them, or I can't do anything to debug any problems.

Drupal 7 Core does NOT work properly with anything above jQuery 1.8 though. Things like collapsible fieldsets won't work, and does not throw errors. Admin menu also does not work with jQuery 1.8+ because the $.browser property was removed.

Did you update to ckeditor 4.4 at the same time?

I am having trouble with that.

Yes, I downloaded the Full CKEditor 4.4.1 package. (Recognized as "CKEditor 4.4.1.568b5ed" by Wysiwyg.)

Could you post some details on the trouble, like JavaScript errors in the browser console, whether the editor shows up at all, if Wysiwyg recognizes it, etc?

Strange - I have just moved to ckeditor 4.4 again and now it works.

Previously I had tried a custom build, but I no longer have that build around to compare - I had added the autosave plugin.

The two errors I rememberin the web developer console are:

1. about smileys_extra
2. error in line 951 of ckeditor.js - TypeError for $

I have the problem with jQuery 1.9 and CKeditor 4.4.1. I can use it as normal. But changing the Editor appearance has no effect. Do some change and save it not saved. And clicking on the default sample toolbar: Basic | Advanced | Full does nothing. Downgrading to jQuery 1.8 and it works nice.

@kristofferwiklund, Sounds like you're not using Wysiwyg module but CKEditor module as we don't have those toolbar options and do not currently use a default toolbar layout.

@TwoD: True, sorry for not being observant.

@kristofferwiklund, no problem, it happens.

Just in case anyone finds this issue, and hasn't found a solution, check this newer issue at the jquery update module
https://www.drupal.org/node/2236721

What worked for me, was to go to admin/config/development/jquery_update (settings page for jquery_update), and set "Alternate jQuery version for administrative pages" to version 1.5.

See #7 - currently 1.8 is highest working jquery with ckeditor

Thanks @andersiversen (#11), setting "Alternate jQuery version for administrative pages" to 1.5 fixed this problem.

I solved this issue modifying my htaccess file, I added the following lines to the end of file:
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off

For some reason my server didn't load jquery on administrative pages.

This really isn't something we can fix in Wysiwyg module, please go to the jQuery update queue and see the information above.
