Can't drag and drop folders in Mail

I have a lot of folders in Mail, and I can only drag and drop a folder among the set of folders that is visible at a given time. If I need to drag the folder up or down, to an area that must be scrolled to, it does not work. This started when I upgraded to Yosemite.

It means don't open the Contacts app, open in in Mail: ⌥⌘A
I found another solution: type the name of the address group I need in the to: field.
Thank you anyway.
That's just the Previous Recipients.

Can't drag and drop attachments into mail fullscreen

Have a weird issue. In lion I could drag and drog into a new mail message by dragging the attachment to the hot corner then to the fullscreen mail app then onto the new mail message.
Now for some reason in Mt. Lion it will no longer do this.
I can do it when mail is not in full screen mode or if I create a new mail message in another desktop.
Any suggestions?
And no I do not have air display on this computer (did do a search before posting)
Thanks!

When this happens can you drag and drop regular files and icons etc?
I did a clean install, setup several user accounts last night. Dragging and dropping was working in my main user account last night. This morning (computer on all night) I could not drag and drop anything in that particular user account including mail attachements. Other accounts worked fine. Thought it was a permissions issue but they were fine.
Ended up trashing the user account and resetting it up and everything back to normal.

Can't drag and drop attachments in mail. Major issue!

I have to restart the computer to drag and drop attachments to an email. If I want to do another drag and drop to another email I have to restart again to make it work. It is a real pain. Do any of you guys know if their is a file I can trash to make this work or I have to wait till apple has a update to fix this? Thanks.

Can't drag and drop adresses in mail anymore

Hello,
Since I upgraded to Maverick (OS X 10.9 (13A603)), I can't drag and drop adresses from the adressbook to mail anymore (even Cc or Cci).
(I did the last update of Mail)
Never had this problem with Lion or Mountain Lion.
I've seen in the forums that I'm not the only one, but I didn't find any solution.
Any idea?

Drag and Drop folders or mail in Mail.app drags wrong mail/folder

Hi,
I noticed mail.app in Maverics 10.9.5 is behaving weird / incorrect / strange with dragging mails.
Eg. If I open up the mailbox window (with the show > button) and try moving a mail inside a folder, I notice it is actually dragging something completely different.
Haven't quite figured out if it's a consistent number of pixels off, but it seems random.
Anybody else noticing this issue?

Hello WillyB_UT,
It may help to rebuild the affected mailboxes by highlighting the desired mailbox, then choosing Rebuild from the Mailbox menu.

Can't drag and drop eamils in Hotmail.

Hello,
I opened up Hotmail today but can't drag and drop emails as usual. I am still able to open and read them but I can't move them to other folders unless I use the check boxes and "Move to" drop down menu.
Hotmail is sill working normally with Internet Explorer so it must be a Hotmail issue. I have tried deleting the cache and the Hotmail cookies (as least I think they were Hotmail cookies).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Update:
As of today, it is working for me in both Firefox and Chrome again. :) You never realize how much you miss the little things you use often until they break... *lol*

Can't drag and drop bookmarks in FF12

I just upgraded to FF 12.0, and I find that I'm unable to drag and drop bookmarks in the "Show All Bookmarks" window. I used to be able to organize my bookmarks that way, order them, put in folders, etc. I can delete bookmarks, and I can even "copy" and "paste" them to move them around, but I can't drag and drop them anymore.
When I go back to FF11, which I had archived, it works fine.
iMac 10.6.8

it's the torbutton extension on its own that causes the issue with firefox versions 12 upwards - i also tried it with a fresh test profile. the torbutton extension is no longer maintained by its developers - they recommend a switch to the tor browser bundle, see [https://www.torproject.org/torbutton/].

IE10 on Win7 and OWA 2010 can't drag and drop

I've upgraded to IE10 for win7. When I login to OWA for exchange 2010, I notice I can't drag and drop emails into any folders. Compatibility mode doesn't work either. The only way for it to work is to go into developer mode and force "Document
Mode" to "IE 9 standards".
How do we post bugs for the exchange team to fix? I'm sure they have to update the OWA code to fix this.

Same here. Notifications can't be retrieved... but oddly enough, if there is an appt. the notification pop-up still works. Email notifications still work. But I get the error message that notifications can't be retrieved. Drag/Drop does not work.
Of course, everything works fine in every other browser.
This tends to imply that the programmers of OWA are using Chrome (or something other than IE) to do their development. Can't say that I blame them.
Setting the document mode to IE 9 does NOT work for me. I have also installed SP3 and RU1.
Thanks,
Dirk

Can I drag and drop single photos into Events?

Hi guys. I've very recently ordered a new Mac that will have iLife 08 on it. Before I get started with it I've got a question about Events. I've been using iPhoto for the last several years, organizing my photos into albums. I've cleaned up my images to around 1,000 photos, and I plan to only use events for organization. (I don't want to use Events AND albums, don't see the point, I'm going to try using ONLY Events.) But I've got a few scenerios that I'd like to throw by you all, to see if they would work, as I'm hoping that they will...
I don't shoot photos into pre-defined "Events", I shoot photos by what I feel like shooting. "Hey, my dog is doing something funny" - There's 3 pictures, or "Wow that's a big spider!" - 1 picture, or "My little neice is doing something cute" - There's 4 pictures. I do not want 450 events, each containing 1 - 5 pictures.
Can I drag and drop single pictures into different events? For example, have an Event called "Friends" with pictures of my friends in it, that I put there? Or an event called "Concerts" with photos taken throughout the years?
I hope I've made it clear what I'm looking to get out of Events!
Thanks in advance for any help.

Exactly - I think he will want to matain his existing structure -- people are making too much of the name change from rolls to events.
I have events with one photo and events with as many as 2000 photos -- I like this better than rolls but albums, folders and keywords are still the key to granular organization - events are ust the library to hold my photos
To me it is a small step forward that makes organization much easier (and it was not that hard before)

PS - now if I could just get all of my edits to save - where are TD and OT to solve that one for me?

Can not drag and drop or copy and paste

It is as simmple as the title. I can not drag and drop icons or text or folders. Nothing. As for cut, copy, and paste they do not work either. I am trying to back up my files so I can do a clean install of snow leopard. I have leopard currently.

So Copy/Paste, etc. isn't working in say Text Edit?
On the Drag & Drop, where are you trying to drop them, & does the icon move but just not copy?

Can't drag and drop or copy paste

I have an iMac with a fusion drive using yosemite. It started a couple weeks ago where the progress bar would not show up during copying files. It seems I can not drag and drop files between folders, drives, or jump drives. I also notice some files that are grayed out that appear to be some of the files I wanted to move or copy on my external drives. They say they were created in 1969 and modified in 1984. I cannot delete these at all. I fixed permissions, restarted, and reinstalled Yosemite. I tried deleting a file in the library/preferences called com.apple.finder, which did not do anything either. Any Ideas?

Select the item in the Finder and open the Info window. If the Created date is January 24, 1984, see below.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Select the text on the line below by dragging across it. Don't include the blank space at the end of the line. Only the text should be highlighted.
touch -t 198001010000
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V, then press the space bar.
Now switch to the Finder and and select the item(s) in question. Drag into the Terminal window. More text will be added to what you entered.
Click in the Terminal window to activate it, then press return.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear. You can then quit Terminal.
Relaunch the Finder.

I can't drag and drop iTunes music files into Roxio Jam 6 anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the " " or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? G5 Dual 2 Ghz and OS 10.4.11

Hi. I have not used Roxio Jam for quite a long time and I just wanted to make a few CDs. Jam used to work easily and well. I have a problem. I can't drag and drop iTunes music files anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the "+" or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? I trashed the preferences file and restarted Jam to no avail. I also have selected that Jam should open files with iTunes in the Jam preferences. I have a G5 DP 2Ghz PPC machine with OS 10.4.11, iTunes 9.2.1 and Quicktime's version is 7.6.4. I have 2 GB of RAM and the machine has dual 1.25 Ghz. processors plus a 500 GB HD. Can anybody give me any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Larry

I found an solution.
Uninstalling AirParrot as well as the two offending AirParrotDriver.kext and APExtFramebuffer.kext files in System>Library>Extensions was the fix. All problems disappeared.
