Within Downloads (OS X Mavericks) I have lost the ability to click and drag an item to Trash

I can move the files to Trash in Finder, but I used to be able to do that in the Downloads list. Now, in the Downloads list if I click on a file, it launches only. I cannot drag it to Trash. This occurred since installing Mavericks...I think.
Does anyone have any ideas?? thanks

Well you have helped me a lot by confirming that you are unable to do it either. To me, that means that is not a "feature" of the new OS. I am quite certain that I was able to do that prior to Mavericks, because I did it all the time since getting this machine new last spring. Mountain Lion was factory installed and was the only OS I used until I installed Mavericks when it was released.
Now that I know it works differently, I will no longer search for a way to make it work as it used to, and just delete the files in Finder.
Thanks again!

Hi Everybody,
I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac. Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan. I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple. I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan. How do I uninstall the Epson software and start all over again?

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee
Cheers, Gerd

After downloading Firefox 4, my sites have lost the user ID's and they treat me like a stranger signing in for the first time.

Banking, store purchases, jacquie lawson, I visit a dozen sites where, as soon as I click the bookmark, the page appears with my user ID already showing, because I checked a box that said "remember." Now, when I go to these sites my user ID does not appear and no matter how many times I check that "remember" box, it will not save it. Why have I lost this feature and how do I get it back?

I just downloaded Photos and I have lost the ability to easily send photos by email via Outlook. Any suggestions?

If you use Mac Mail and Microsoft Outlook mail like I do, you could switch from one to the other mail program for send photos.
iPhoto >> Preferences >> General tab >> E-mail foto's via >> select Microsoft Outlook.
Click a photo in iPhoto >> Share >> select E-mail … >> Microsoft Outlook will be launch.

I seem to have lost the ability to directly upload a song from Garageband to facebook or e-mail on both my iMac and Macbook. Any suggestions.

Have you repaired permissions and restarted your computer after installing ML? Checked your printer settings in System Preferences?
If Software Update does not list any updated drivers for your model printer, you should go to the printer's manufacturer website and download the drivers from there and/or contact their tech support to determine if your printer is compatible w/ML.
Read the various Knowledge Base ML printing articles. Here are a few to get you started:
OS X Mountain Lion: If the software for your printer can’t be found
OS X Mountain Lion: Troubleshoot a USB printer
OS X Mountain Lion: Troubleshoot an AirPort printer
If none of the above work, post back w/the model of your printer and how it's connected to your computer. USB? Wireless?

Probably you have never experienced this, but I have lost the ability to iMessage.
When I try to turn on iMessage, it tells me that "an error occurred while trying to turn on iMessage."
It's not a huge deal, but people with iPhones can't text me back unless they try to re-send after finding out that their message wasn't delivered.
Help!
I think I have gone through every support option available, short of
Scheduling an appointment at the Genius Bar. But I have been to the store three times in the last three weeks.
To solve a different problem, the folks at the store replaced my iPhone 4S.
I came home and loaded my backup onto the new phone. Everything EXCEPT iMessage seems to be working great.
I would really appreciate any feedback...

Strangely enough, putting my laptop into Hibernate mode solved the problem. It didn't even take a reboot.

I have lost the ability to log into find my iPhone using my daughters iTunes login to track her while she's driving

I have lost the ability to track my daughters phone using her log in for find my iPhone since updat

Does she have her own iCloud account? You can have more than one iCloud account installed on a device, and some users install a secondary iCloud account which is common to others in the family to allow "Find My iPhone" to be used from one account while keeping separate iCloud contacts, mail, etc.
But with iOS 7 although you can still have multiple iCloud accounts installed, only the "primary" iCloud account supports "Find my iPhone". So if her iCloud account is the primary, you can no longer track her from your iCloud account. Is that what happened in your case?

HT204291 I updated my apple tv to the latest firmware. I seem to have lost the ability to mirror my ipad 3rd gen. Can anybody help

I bought an apple tv for its ability to mirror any of the content on my new ipad 3rd gen. Now after updating my apple tv i seem to have lost the ability to mirror my tablet onto the screen. Can somebody help with this. I have tried to do everything. I made sure both my apple tv and my ipad are connected to the same network. I also made shure my bluetooth was off. I can still airplay with my brothers iphone 4s. ( ios5.1) but i cannot do the same with my tablet.

To U2SockMonkey,
You must be a newbie, because otherwise you would have fixed it. I don't have that mirroring problem and it must be because you are not looking around and inform yourself thoroughly. It took me also 2 days of grief before I found out how to do it. Not even to mention that the Apple Engineer that I called did not have a solution either and just suggested that I should send my Apple TV back or go to a Apple Store nearby.
I was pretty annoyed about that such a little black box was giving me grief. I have been working in the IT industry for over 30 years and I know quite a bit inside out about many hardware's. But my opinion is that sending out Version 6.0 Aka 5.1 as you rightfully say is not on with me.
This is the same behaviour that Apple now does as Microsoft forever is doing. Not finishing the products and putting it on the market or release it before it is finished and has bugs in it.
Personally this irks me and annoys me. Because I am in that field for many years and have seen what grief it causes. I have noticed that an Administrator has removed another post that I made about other matters concerning iPads and especially with iPad 3 and 4 now and that there are also other people who make inflamatory remarks to people ( Julian Wright for e.g.) about how they have to spend their money for the latest stuff of Apple and come over very aggressive, selfish, if not evil.
For your information, I used to work for Apple, I know Apple inside and how they work and what they used to do ? They were really nice for their employees and customers. But I think that has changed now for whatever reason they have. Very disappointing. It's up to Apple not to listen, I have no control of that, but it will cost them at some point.
Besides that point, I feel that some people are been taken for a ride and when I am expressing that this is not OK I should be rewarded for that instead of being rejected.

I lost the ability to order and hide site columns if i use custom content type with a custom Create Form

I have a team site collection and I want to add a new App of type Issue Tracking list. so I did the following:-
From the site collection I created a new App of type issue tracking.
Then from the site collection I created a new Content type named “CustomIssue” which has its parent as “Issue” content type.
I went to the Issue tracking list and I changed the default content type from Issue , to the new “CustomeIssue” content type.
I open the site collection using SP designer and I created a new Create form for my Issue tracking list based on the "CustomIssue" content type and I select to have the Create form as the default form when creating an item.
Everything till this point worked well. But when I open the “customIssue” content type , and I re-order the columns and I hide some columns, this was not reflected inside the custom Create form …
although when using the default content type and the default create form you can control the order of the fields and to specify if certain fields hold be hidden inside the Create form.. so can anyone advice on this please?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you lost the ability to order and hide site columns if i use custom content type with a custom Create Form.
I try to reproduce the issue, the result is the same as yours.
As a workaround, if I modify the custom content type form the site setting, and then change the NewForm as the default form, it will change the column orders.
However, if I use the new created form as the default form, it will remain the original orders.
I recommend that you modify the custom content type form the site setting, and then reset the NewForm as the default form.
The result is as below:

With the new Yosemite update (10.10.3) I can no longer transfer my photographs into Adobe Photoshop Elements by the previously expedient 'click and drag' method. Neither am I able to import or export them. Does anyone have suggestion on moving them?

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

3.3mhz iMac, just had Maverick installed and as I tried to upload Pix, the finder went into a wheel of death and since that point, have lost the ability to even type on ANY applicat would not come out of it.. did utilities and have no idea what to do next

Have a iMac 3.3 mhz, tried to upload pix to an app and Finder went into the wheel of death and would not come out.. When it "Got Lost" I also lost the ability to even type on the machine in ANY APPLICATION. Have run utilities, made repairs and still no typing/text. On Thurs or Friday (10/24 or 10/25) Maverick was installed so this may be a problem that it created. As it happens I didn't ask for Maverick. How do I fix the "Finder" on the machine if i can't even type on it??

Hi, beth.lau.gr.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand you have been experiencing issues with your iPhone restarting and showing you a blue screen. I wont be able to give you an exact answer as to why this is happening. However, this is the most relevant troubleshooting article for this issue. This article also provides options to reach out to us via phone for additional assistance.
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it
