Hi Anna,
I would start by examining how GDAL reads your shapefile, by executing
at the commandline:
ogrinfo name.shp name -summary
Then follow the error messages there (or paste the response here so we
can all see).
Also verify that the shapefile's associated files live in the same
directory: .shp .shx .dbf

What can I do if I want to upload a shape file to my qgis and it always
