Cant Drag and Drop Video to 60 gig

Hi everyone. I finally decided to try and put some video on my ipod video. For some reason though i cant drag and drop video onto the ipod. The files are all proper format so that is not the problem.
If i add the videos to my library and then have it auto-update the videos it will add them to the ipod. I cannot simply create a playlist of them though and drag it on, or drag a single video onto the ipod.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Is your IPOD set to "Manual" update when you are trying to Drag and Drop?

Hi
I think I know what's happening as I'm having the same problem.
Under previous iPhotos you could look at the main viewer and drag a photo or multiple photos from there to an already created album.
Now, it only appears that you can drag an entire event from the events window to an album, even when you click on an event to open it, you can't drag individual photos from an event to an album.
So how do we add individual photos to an album??

Drag and drop to Windows desktop

Hi
I've been struggling with this for a while, I've got a TransferHandler class that allows drag and drop from Windows desktop to application, now I'd like to do the reverse, but can't seem to provide the suitable DataFlavor to the OS, I'm using javaFileListFlavor obviously. I am currently creating a Transferable with createTransferable, but this is a StringSelection, and I can't remove this because I need it for internal drag and drop in the application. Please advise.
public class CDrag extends TransferHandler {
    public CDrag(TreeTableView ttv) {
        this.ttv = ttv;
        dndData = new ArrayList();
        relPath = "/";
        try {
            uriFlavor = new DataFlavor("text/uri-list;class=java.lang.String");
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
    @Override
    public int getSourceActions(JComponent c) {
        return MOVE;
    @Override
    protected Transferable createTransferable(JComponent c) {
        String nodes = "";
        int j = 0;
        TreePath[] sel = ttv.treeTable.getTreeSelectionModel().getSelectionPaths();
        for (TreePath i : sel) {
            FileNode fNode = (FileNode) i.getLastPathComponent();
            if (j > 0) {
                nodes = nodes + "\n";
            nodes = nodes + fNode.toString();
            j++;
        return new StringSelection(nodes);
    @Override
    protected void exportDone(JComponent c, Transferable t, int action) {
        if (!dndData.isEmpty()) {
            File[] sg = (File[]) dndData.toArray();
         // delete files that are dropped
            dndData.clear();
    @Override
    public boolean canImport(TransferSupport supp) {
        if (supp.isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor.stringFlavor)) {
            return true;
        if (supp.isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor)) {
            return true;
        if (supp.isDataFlavorSupported(uriFlavor)) {
            return true;
        return false;

     // function that recursively processes all files and folders
    @Override

        if (!canImport(supp)) {
            return false;
        String fns = "";
        Transferable t = supp.getTransferable();
        try {
            if (supp.isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor)) {
                File[] fnsl = (File[]) ((List) t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor)).toArray();
                return importFiles(supp, fnsl);
            } else if (supp.isDataFlavorSupported(uriFlavor)) {
                String s = (String)t.getTransferData(uriFlavor);
          StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(s, System.getProperty("line.separator"));
          ArrayList files = new ArrayList<File>();
          while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
               String file = st.nextToken();
               try {
                       URL url = new URL(file);
                    files.add(new File(URLDecoder.decode(url.getPath())));
               } catch (MalformedURLException mue) {
                return importFiles(supp, (File []) files.toArray());
            } else {
                fns = (String) t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor);
        } catch (UnsupportedFlavorException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(CDrag.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(CDrag.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
     // the rest of the code here process a StringSelection
        return true;
    private List<File> dndData;
    private String relPath;
    private DataFlavor uriFlavor;
}I have the following information available in the FileNode class - the name of the file, the path inside the application, date modified, size, whether it is a file or folder. How do I get these values into a javaFileListFlavor that Windows will understand? Also, I would need a way of returning the actual file data (which will be read from a remote server). The basic File class doesn't allow many of these things to be set.

Lionel

Cant drag and drop from file-roller to nautilus when using List View

Hi, im using file-roller and i can only use drag and drop feature from file-roller when i use Icon View. If i select List View i cant drag and drop.
Is that an expected behavior or its a bug? Is there a patch or work around? (File Roller 2.20.1 and Gnome 2.20.2)
I think its a problem with file-roller cause in my other box, running ubuntu 7.10 i have the same problem, but i can drag and drop from ark even when using List View.
Thx!

Well, sorry for the double post, but after a little research i found this is a bug, actually a not yet implemented feature. There is a patch and probably its going to be merged in next version.
Ill try to apply the patch myself, if it works could the maintainer Jan de Groot put it on the repository?
Here is the bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171655

Drag and drop of Windows icons inside Java......possible ?

Hi all !
does anybody know if it's possible to do drag and drop of windows icons (like folders) into Java Frames or other containers ?
I'd like to write an application where the user can drag Windows folders inside a Frame/Container and collect Folder information (the path to the folder)
Is it possible to do it ?
Thanks a lot
Francesco

Hi,
It is possible.
You can drag platform independent objects like folders, icons etc. from the native platform to your java app.
The Java-Object you need in this case is a
DataFlavour like
DataFlavor.stringFlavor // for text
DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor // for folders
in the tutorial jacob has linked you find more about this.

I Cant Drag And Drop ANYTHING!

if im in finder i cant drag and drop anything at all. i cant even move things on my desktop please help.

Try restarting or logging out and back in, or both. If that doesn't fix it, create a new admin user in Sys Prefs>Accounts and test for this behavior there.

10.2.1 now cant drag and drop

Hi all just updated a few days ago and now cant drag and drop into my itunes but i can drag and drop onto my ipiod or iphone....any ideas i think ive tried everything

As b noir pointed out...the playlist can be sorted by artist, or album, or track number...which can be helpful or really annoying, depending on what you are trying to do. Just select/sort that far left column (Left of "Name") and then you can reorder the playlist.

I cant drag and drop music from my library to my iPod how do i?

I cant drag and drop music if i do nothing happens i have so much music downloaded and i cant put them all on my iPod i need help please

Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any other media like apps or photos sync to the iPod now?

I cant drag and drop songs from my music library to my i phone (no entry sign appears)?

i cant drag and drop songs which i have purchased directly from my i phone 5 to my music library (no entry sign appears)? why is this?
also i cant change my email address in i tunes, any ideas on this one too?
Cheers all.

Hello Alfonso,
In order to do this, you'll need to enabled 'manual mode' on your iPhone.

I cant "drag and drop" music onto my ipod anymore can i get help please???

Hi,
Since i have my ipod i have always dragged and dropped music from my itunes library onto my ipod but now every time i open itunes it tries to sync my whole library onto my ipod which i dont want, but now i cant drag nd drop onto it anymore , and there is a "lock" symbol beside the space that shows how much space is available on my ipod (such as the one that appears when on hold).
Any help would be great, thank you

"every time i open itunes it tries to sync my whole library onto my ipod which i dont want"
You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7 installed hold down the Control and Alt keys (or Shift + Ctrl keys in older versions). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
"but now i cant drag nd drop onto it anymore , and there is a "lock" symbol beside the space that shows how much space is available on my ipod"
Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to automatically update. If you want to access your iPod directly, drag songs to it, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and videos" in the iPod Summary tab and click Apply. The text will change from grey to dark and the padlock will disappear: Managing content manually on iPod

Drag and drop in windows explor

Hi,
I cant for the life of me ind out if this is possible. Im thinking of buying a Zen Touch 20GB and want to know if it is possible to drag and drop music directly in Windows without additional software. If so, I just might buy it
greetings Twist

If you install the PlaysForSure firmware yes, otherwise you need to install another program for it to work.
