Downloaded iTunes 9...but the Home Sharing "drag and drop" doesnt work

I just downloaded iTunes 9 to my ASUS laptop and..well im trying to transfer some of my other library to this computer using the home sharing..but the simple "drag and drop" to add from the shared library to yours doesn't work at all. I tired re-installing iTUnes but it still doesnt work. Help!

Okay, FWIW I just solved this on my machines...was tearing my hair out too!
Drag/drop and settings/import buttons are enabled only when the shared library is a yellow icon, and not a blue icon. So, what's the difference?
A blue icon indicates just plain vanilla sharing--no drag/drop or import is allowed. This type of sharing is enabled by turning on "Look for shared libraries" and "Share my library on my local network" in preferences on both machines.
I did this and signed in under the same account on both machines but still only got the blue icon and couldn't drag/drop or import. Then I discovered it (and felt pretty dumb that I missed it).
Make sure you go to the Advanced menu option and select "Turn On Home Sharing", and sign-in. Once you do this, you should get the yellow sharing icon and things will work smoothly.
Again, just turning on sharing in preferences and signing-in (under the Store menu option) will not do the trick. You need to enable home sharing through the Advanced menu option.
Hope that helps!

    Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
    If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
    Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
    You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.

    I have an Apple TV 2nd Gen, iPad 2 and can't get the icon to appear when i swipe from left to right. What am I missing?
    I am able to get the 'Home sharing' 'user and password on my Mac.
    Also using IPad 2 I am able to get the ITunes to accept the user name and same password as the Mac.
    However, the only way I can see the 'Home sharing; icon is in Music on the Ipad. When I tap on the Icon it asks for a password.
    When I give the same password, it is rejected.
    Help!!!!

    Personally I think the iOS devices are poor at reconnecting  - Airplay establishes that a link is available but when the iPhone/iPad has been away from the house and rejoins the network i think AppleTV already thinks it's connected with a different IP address and fails to recognise it has joined the network again with new credentials.
    Something along those lines anyway.
    I find that a combination of restarting AppleTV, router and iOS device tends to fix it, but not for everyone.

  • Drag and drop not working.  When trying to move a cell or icon the shadow of the cell or icon being moved appears under the cursor but can't be released causing a freeze of function within the program.  Happens in finder numbers and firefox

    Drag and drop not working.  When trying to move a cell or icon the shadow of the cell or icon being moved appears under the cursor but can't be released causing a freeze of function within the program.  Happens in finder numbers, firefox, and when trying to move any file from the downloads folder.
    This is a serious pain.
    Please help.

    Yes, all I can tell you is that Finder does not have that function in ML. Your system is "working as expected".

  • How can i get the address with drag and drop from address book into pages?

    I want to creat a letter withe the new pages. Normaly it was possible to put the adress from the adressbook with drag and drop into the letter. So it was possible to create one letter with many different adresses. But now I didn't find this function any more. How to do ist now?
    Withe best regards and I'm sorry for may bad english

    Sounds like you "upgraded" to Pages 5.
    Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • How to change the effect of drag and drop from MOVE to COPY in alv tree.

    Hi,
    I am using a tool in which now the behaviour on drag and drop is MOVE. I want to change it to COPY.
    But I do not know which parameter needs to be set and where.
    please help.
    Regards,
    Smita.

    Hi,
    Thanks for quick reply.
    The code goes on like this
    METHOD set_dd_behavior.
      DATA: l_copysrc(1) TYPE c,
            l_movesrc(1) TYPE c,
            l_droptarget(1) TYPE c.
    Set the Drag and Drop Flavors.
      CREATE OBJECT dd_behavior.
      READ TABLE reg_functions WITH KEY name_function = 'COPY'
      TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        l_copysrc = 'X' .
      ENDIF.
      READ TABLE reg_functions WITH KEY name_function = 'CUT'
      TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        l_movesrc = 'X' .
      ENDIF.
      READ TABLE reg_functions WITH KEY name_function = 'PASTE'
      TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        l_droptarget = 'X' .
      ENDIF.
      CALL METHOD dd_behavior->add
      EXPORTING
      flavor = 'MOVE'
      dragsrc = l_movesrc
      droptarget = l_droptarget
      effect = cl_dragdrop=>move.
      CALL METHOD dd_behavior->add
      EXPORTING
      flavor = 'COPY'
      dragsrc = l_copysrc
      droptarget = l_droptarget
      effect = cl_dragdrop=>copy.
      CALL METHOD dd_behavior->get_handle
      IMPORTING handle = dd_behavior_handle.
    ENDMETHOD.
    Here what changes needs to be done.
    As I see once COPY is added and next time MOVE is added.
    I am able to check because I am not able to edit while debugging the value of effect.
    Please suggest.
    Warm regards,
    Smita.

    i have a seagate 1tb hard drive and a 16gb memory stick, how do i transfer avi files from one to another as the click drag and drop wont work, please help?

    Greetings,
    What happens when you drag it?
    Make sure the drive you are moving the files to has enough available space to receive the file:
    Click on the movie file and go to File >  Get Info and note the "size"
    Check the drive to which you are moving the file to make sure it has enough available space: https://idisk.me.com/madisonfile-Public/web/finder-drive-available-space-and-for mat.html
    Also note the format of the drive you are copying too.  If it is not Mac OS Extended or FAT (not recommended unless you are taking it to a windows computer) then that may be the issue.
    Hope that helps.

  • Is it possible to combine pdfs from software containing the file by dragging and dropping them?

    We have a piece of software that we profile PDF files into it and then have a need to combine those PDFs into one file.  Is it possible to just drag and drop from the software into the combine files area?  I know if you open the files first, you can do that or if you save the documents locally, then you can combine them.  It would be ideal to just select the files in the software, then drag and drop them into the combine pdf window.  We are using Adobe Pro XI.

    Hi Hawk2000,
    The workflow you are talking about is very much possible with Acrobat and a good example is Microsoft Outlook from which we can select multiple e-mails and simply drag into Acrobat combine dialog box for combining.
    What happens when you drag files from you software? Is it public software?
    Can we test your software?
    Regards,

  • Hi,  This was not what I meant.     The requirement is:      Drag and drop any one of specific list

    Hi,
    This was not what I meant.
    The requirement is:
    Drag and drop any one of specific list of components say x, y,z in the parsys
    Only after the drag and drop of these components other components can be dragged to the parsys. So we can say that the parsys should allow only the specific components to be added first and only after that other components can be added.
    Thanks ,

    Hi there
    I'm guessing that you mean to ask if one is able to force a user to perform a drag-and-drop as part of a simulation?
    Unless you program it in Flash or some other application it isn't avaiable. Check the link below for more.

  • Drag and Drop not working in iPhoto

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro running Lion, and recently when I try to drag and drop in iPhoto, it stops working.  I want to drag photos from iPhoto to a folder on my desktop in order to upload those pictures online.  I have never had a problem with drag and drop in Snow Leopard, but suddenly Lion does not want to let me do it.
    I checked around and found out about repair permissions, which I did, then I restarted the computer.  Drag and Drop worked for a few minutes, then all the sudden it wouldn't let me again.  I was in the same album, trying to drag and drop the same group of pictures, and nothing had changed when it just stopped working again.  I really don't want to have to restart the computer EVERY time it wont let me do this.  Does anyone have any other advice?  Command copy/paste works for now, but drag and drop is just easier so I'd like to get the issue resolved!  Oh, and my software is completely up to date as well.

    Does anybody have any ideas?
    I've updated to the new version of iTunes since I originally posted this,
    but the drag and drop feature is still not working. This is making it
    impossible for me to update anything on my iPod.
    Thanks!

  • Drag and Drop not working since last software update

    Drag and Drop not working since last software update - this is occuring on Outlook for the mac and I just tried moving  an icon on the doc and the same thing occured.  YOu can drag but the items will not drop.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Drag and Drop not working with IE11,Firefox or Chrome on Windows 7 x64 SP1

    Hello,
     I am trying to use drag and drop on my system but it is not working. other's within my department have no issues, but they are using IE10. I also have SharePoint Designer 2013 installed.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Derek

    Derek,IE11 is having some compatibility issues with the share point.Apart from IE11,it should work on IE10,9 and Firefox and chrome as well.
    Please check the links below that explains the issues with IE11 and the functionality of Drag and drop and limitations as-well.
    1.Since SharePoint 2013 fully support IE 32-bit version above 7, there might be compatibility issue with other browsers. I’d recommend you use IE 8,9,10 32-bit for optimal Performance.
    2. Open the same document library in Internet Explorer as this functions does not work with Firefox or Chrome by default
    3. Make sure the IE (Internet Explorer) Version should be 32-bit and not a 64-bit
