Can't drag files from Organizer 13 to different folder

I recently installed PSE13 on my PC running Windows 8.1. I've also downloaded the latest update and even the patch which corrected the mouse scrolling problem. Now I have a new problem. When I'm in the Organizer, I am no longer able to drag files to a different folder. For instance, I have a folder on my desktop which contains the pictures and videos I downloaded from my camera. I am able to see these files within the organizer, and the organizer clearly shows that the files are contained within the folder on my desktop. What I want to do within the organizer is to move these files by dragging them to my Pictures folder. The program will no longer allow me to accomplish this task. I use to be able to do this with no problem, but not anymore!! Is there a fix for this problem??? Thanks! Jeff

No, there is no error message. Your second question, asking if I first selected thumbnails, etc., prompted me to go back to the organizer to review exactly what happens when I try to select and drag a file to a new folder. And, because of your question, I have discovered new results: the first time I tried to select a picture, the normal hand appeared, but when I attempted to drag the file to a folder, all I got was the hand drawing a dotted rectangular box, and I could not drag the file to any folder. I tried this two more times with the same result. Then, I discovered that if I click on the far right side of the file thumbnail, I could actually drag it to a different folder. So, now I know precisely where to click on a thumbnail in order to successfully drag it to a folder. However, in previous versions, I could click anywhere on the thumbnail and drag without any problems. So, I will consider this problem "mostly" solved, and hopefully Adobe will address this problem on a future update. Thanks for your help!! Jeff

Can i drag files from one computer to another

can i drag files from one computer to another

You can, if you want to transfer files between macs I advies to use AirDrop(wi-fi needs to be enabled). Use shift+command+R, this will take you to your AirDrop in finder. Do this on both computers and you should see the user of the mac where you want to transfer files to.
If the seconds computer is a Windows, you can alway use a USB Drive, External Drive, through Dropbox(install dropbox on both computers and download the files that you need on the second computer) and if the file is small even mail.

How do I drag files in Finder to a different folder?

How do I drag files in Finder to a different folder?

First, open one Finder window, and then, open another one pressing Command and N keys.
On one window, go to the folder where the files are, and on the other one, go to the folder where you want to put your files. Choose them with the Command key (or select all if you want to transfer all of them, with Command and A keys) and drag them to the other Finder window

Can't drag files from desktop to project files window

Im using the latest premiere pro version, 7.2, and while I can drag files from my desktop to the project window in premiere 6, for some reason its no longer possible in premiere 7.2
whenver I try to drag audio or video files from my desktop or any folder to the project files window at the bottom left I get a forbidden sign or circle with a diagonal so the only way to import files is through the import menu, which is less straightforward and slowlier
Ill be happy to provide more data if required
thanks
PS: obviously Ive already created a sequence so the problem is not that

The latest version is 7.2.2 (33)
Upgrade to that and see if it helps.

Can't drag files from itunes library (to anywhere) anymore.

Recently I've noticed I can no longer drag files from the library in my itunes. I can't drag them to playlists, and I can't drag them to the desktop.
I have repaired permissions and even tried removing the library.xml file and let it generate a new one, but I still get the same result.
I am on a mac os 10.6.8 Macbook Pro.
I'm not sure when ths started happening, but I wonder if it has something to do with an itunes update. I have the newest version and always dwnload the updates. I can still add files to the library by control-clicking the files and selecting the option in the dropdown list. This isn't an intentional change in the way the program works is it? Is no one else having this problem??

Iphone will sync or manually manage with one and only one computer at a time.
Syncing or manually managing to another will indeed erase the current content and replace with the content from the new computer.

Can't drag files from stacks to trash in 10.6.7

I have two stacks on my dock, downloads and documents. On my desktop (an Early 2009 model iMac), I have no problem opening a stack ("fan" view) and dragging a file from the stack to the trash. However, on my Early 2006 MacBook, I'm unable to do this. I was able to do it with 10.5.8, but I just upgraded it to 10.6, and then to 10.6.7 a few days ago, and now I can't.
I can still drag files to trash if I open the Documents or Downloads folder in Finder, just not directly from the stack, so it's just an inconvenience at worst, but if someone could help me fix this, I'd really appreciate it. I can provide more information if needed, but I'm not sure what would be useful.

I never even knew you could do that! Just tested it on my 10.6.7 machine, though, and it worked fine. I don't have a solution for you - I suppose you could try deleting the Dock preferences (com.apple.dock.plist) and reboot - but wanted to let you know it's not a problem in 10.6.7 so you can at least take a stab at tracking down and fixing the problem.

Suddenly I can't drag files from explorer into audition anymore.

Hi any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
I was having some trouble with my m-track ASIO interface drivers so I went through some steps to try and fix this, and made some changes to audition and windows 7. I made some changes listed here http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=349411
anyway, none of it helped my issue, and to make matters worse now I cant just drag files from explorer windows into audition (which would usually load them in the menu on the left and place them into multitrack editor)
I can still load files through the open menu but this is pretty inefficient way of doing it.
Now I tried to reverse the changes I made but I still cant drag and drop into audition.
does anybody know what might cause this and how to fix it?
thanks

Well, just finished my weekly podcast using Garageband and the "new and improved" iTunes. Here are the clunkers I've found:
1. Original problem of not being able to drag from iTunes to GarageBand. JamButty, I'll try out your workaround... for this show I literally had to drag all of the files I needed out of iTunes into a folder... Then why use iTunes at all?! Really stupid.
2. I noticed when I dragged the final show off of iTunes to a folder I use to upload to my S3 account, it now just has the black mp3 icon... not the image I use for the show. Granted, not a functional problem, but just stupid none the less why they would eliminate that.
3. Show notes in the metadata. Usually I'd copy my first paragraph of show notes (what goes on the web page) into Info > Comments in the metadata. And, if was too long, it would just chop off the end of it. This time I got a "bink" sound and nothing copied in. Tried it a couple of different ways with the same results until I figured out to just put half the copy in. Again, stupid, useless, time-consuming change.
I love Apple to death, but I hate what they do sometimes. The make a great product... then eventually screw it up with dumb changes (for example, the latest version of Final Cut)

Can't drag files from itunes to the desktop or finder.

I used to be able to do this but have't been able to recently. Please someone else tell me if this is a change that has been made to itunes in general or if there is something wrong with my particular itunes:
I tunes wont let me drag files anymore. I can't drag to playlists. I can't drag to the finder or desktop. The only way around this is to right click or control-click and show each individual file in the finder and drag from there. Which is very annoying when I try to move many files at once.
The files are not copy protected and I have permissions open on the folders I am dragging to.
I use itunes version 10.5.2
mac os 10.6.8 on a powerbook 2.4 ghz intel core duo

Someone? Please?? Is it possible that I am the only one who noticed this!?!?

Can't drag files from external HD, Desktop

Can highlight and open items on my desktop, hard drive, external hard drive, dock, internet, and within programs, but can not drag a file at all from any (even can't drag a graphic from internet browser to my desktop. Isn't even showing the dragging highlight you get when dragging). Everything is just stuck where it's at. Can open folders, programs, etc...
Did I hit a combination of keys that created this? The mouse and keyboard seem to be working fine otherwise.

How are the EHD's formattted? I suspect they are formatted for WIndows machines in NFS, if I am correct they are operating correctly and cannot be written to. You may havee to reformat to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) which means yuo will lose all data on them.
Please be complete and tell us more info about the drives.

Can't drag files from a DVD I burned

I transfer files off of my hard drive to conserve space from time to time. After burning the files to a DVD I am now unable to drag the files off the disk and transfer them back to my hard drive. I can only read them from the disk. What am I doing wrong?

Still need more information. What happens when you try to drag a file from your DVD to your Desktop? Does an error dialog pop up? If so what does it say? What happens if you use the cp command in Terminal ( +cp <path to file on DVD> ~/Desktop+ ). Does that succeed or fail? If it fails, what error message do you get?

How can I drag files from my macbook to my external hard drive?

Hi! I can't seem to drag files to my hard drive using my macbook pro? How can I do that?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
What happens when you try to drag a file to the external drive? If it just doesn't copy, it's because the external drive is formatted in NTFS, and OS X can't write in NTFS hard drives. There are some solutions:
1. Buy a third-party application like Paragon NTFS, which will allow you to write in your external drive.
2. Format the external drive with exFAT or FAT32, so you will be able to use the external drive with PCs and Macs.
If you choose the last one, copy all the data from the external drive to a Mac or PC before erasing the disk. I recommend you to use exFAT because it hasn't got the limitation of files bigger than 4 GB, so you have to format the external drive on a PC. That's because, if you do it in the Mac, PCs won't recognize it

Just upgraded to iTunes 10.4 - Now I can't drag files from iTunes to Garageband

Has anyone else experienced this problem?
I do a podcast and keep my bed music, sfx and whatnot in iTunes. When I need something I just drag it from iTunes and into GarageBand (4.1.2).
I upgraded iTunes last night (10.4) and now it no longer allows me to drag directly into GarageBand. I have to drag the file out of iTunes, then move it to GB.
Anyone else have this problem and find a fix?

Can't drag files from Assets folder to bin

I have the free trial; 8.1 - running a Mac OS X 10.9.5
I'm on the second video of the tutorial. I cannot get any of the files - jpg or mp4 - to drag into the Footage or Stills folder.
This very simple, basic move is keeping me from going forward in the Tutorial - disappointing.
Thanks anyone for help.

Mystery solved, at least partially. On the folder that the dashed line points to, The magnifying glass icon indicates that it's a "search bin." That type of bin was added in version 2014.1 (October 2014). Search bins show only project items matching your search criteria--things like a string of letters in the name, the asset type, or metadata like frame rate. Since these special bins are populated by the program based on the search criteria, so you cannot manually add anything to such a bin. To learn more about search bins, please see this page in the help: Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Finding assets
The remaining part of the mystery is where those two search bins came from. But for your immediate purposes that's moot. It appears that what you need at the moment is a new Stills bin, which you can create by clicking the New Bin button in the bottom right corner of the Project panel.
