This list is located in a sub-site. I have tested other lists within this sub-site, as well as other lists in different sub-sites and the root, and no matter how I group them, either nested or not, once I click the expand "+", the items will show.
On this particular list, we have a nested group by, meaning group by this, then by that, as well as sorting. If I change the default view to be expanded, rather than collapsed, I can collapse and expand all I want and it's no problem.
When the default is collapsed, and I click on the expand "+", it'll say "loading..." directly underneath the group, then disappear. I do have a customized css file related to the system pages. However, if I change it back to the original corev4.css file, it does that same thing. This cannot be the issue since all other lists using this customized css file work.
Once again, it is only this list, none others, even lists in the same sub-site.
Thanks in advance...

thank you - the 2nd post is non-related - a javascript error on the master would break my other grouped lists, not just the one.
for the 1st - i'll check w/ my sys admin - but i'm very sure that we installed SP 2010 in November, meaning that the patch was out in August of last year, this would have been applied.

What about in 2013? This is happening in on of the lists I have that are grouped. The weird thing is, that only 3 of them in the list wont expand!?! All other groups will expand out, but with a few of them it acts like it expands but it will show nothing or will say working on it for a split second then disappear.

I had the same problem, and it turns out there was something wrong with value I put in the choice field. Once I created another value the dropdown started working again.

Confirmed. I had the same issue.
Turns out I was using a calculated column to do the sorting. It was originally a numeric column that was calculated using =TEXT formula. Obviously I didn't need to do math on it, so I changed the type to Single Line of Text, and that fixed the problem.
I wonder if I had used =DATEVALUE instead of =TEXT if a numeric column would have worked. Oh well, it's solved now so I don't care.

I had the same issue. I was grouping by a calculated column. It appeared that the issue only occurred when I tried to group by number. I changed my formula to convert the number to text and was able to set the default to compressed and was able to expand each group manually.
I don't know if this is the cause of this issue for others...just something to consider.
