Drag and Drop - Application not responding

Hello,
I have a problem regarding Drag and Drop in Mavericks (but probably all versions):
This is especially concerning Drag and Drop from Mail or Microsoft Outlook to another application (in this case a Java Application).
I know that it's only possible to drag mails to the desktop, where they are saved as an eml file.
My idea was to use the Drag and Drop mechanism as a trigger for calling an Apple Script (out of my Java Application) which saves the selected mail(s) as eml, for my application later picking them up in an defined folder. Basically this works just fine BUT Mail as well as Outlook does not respond to the tell statement of my Apple Script until the dragged mail snaps back to the source application after about 20 seconds. While the Apple Script waits for the mail application to respond, both applications (mail application as well as my own application) show "Application not responding" in dock.
Does anybody have an idea how I can get the mail applications get to respond earlier? Probably a second instance, killing of the drag/drop event or anything else?
Regards
Benjamin

    [Problem]
    * Flash Builder 4.5.1(updater) or Flash Builder 4.6
    - If you have installed on pc, does not work adobe air drag and drop
    [Solution]
    1. Reinstalling the Windows 7 (32bit).
    2. Install Flash Builder 4.5.
    3. Flash Builder 4.5.1 updater and Flash Builder 4.6 does not install.
       (Instead of using Flex SDK 4.6 is set up)
    In addition, Windows7 64bit environment does not work drag and drop.
    Is there another solution?

  • Pages: I want to reorganize items in folders, drag and drop is not working. So how can I do this?

    Pages: I want to reorganize items in folders, drag and drop is not working. So how can I do this?

    This is the very top of the documents view in the Pages app. If you don't see this, swipe down in this window to reveal the Date and Name tabs like you see here. If you tap on - Name - that arranges all of the documents in alphabetical order in this view and it also arranges documents in the respective folders alphabetically. If you tap on - Date - that will arrange all documents by the date that they were created or last edited. You want to make sure that you keep Name as the default at the top.
    Trust me, this does work. If you name the chapters alphabetically .... Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, or if you simply name them A, B, C, D, etc. they will be arranged in that order using the Name button at the top, which uses alphabetical order to arrange the documents.

  • PSE 11 editor has stopped importing from scanner, no longer permits drag and drop, will not permit cropping, and other bizarre issues

    Windows 8.1, PSE 11
    I am having a number of issues including loss of import functionality from scanner, I can't drag and drop photos into the editor any more as well, or at least not after the first one. The crop function stops working after the first couple of photos.  Then some freezing.  A little added crashing.  A plethora of other bizarre issues as well.  This just stated happening a couple of days ago. 
    What I have tried:
    Uninstall/Install. 
    Deleted preferences both before opening Editor (crontrol-alt-delete) and after opening it. 
    Kindly advise.  Thanks!

    Final Update: ...god willing...
    OK! Check it, like I said in previous posts I seemed to have narrowed it down to specific mp3s not converting and playing in their native sample rate which if paired with another sample would give you the "audio midi sync" error and basically screw up your clock! It appears mp3 files converting to mp3 using iTunes would not convert to the correct sample rate if set to something other than 44 in logic and cause this. A tad peculiar Apple iTunes won't work with Apple Logic. I was able to confirm this on two mac's via my friend in Florida. He's running Tiger and tried the same experiment and Booya! Mickey Mouse! It appears this insane week long adventure has came to an end (...god willing) with a super specific unlucky shot in the dark on my part finally revealed to be an perfectly normal function of Logic (obviously one i'm not fond of..) As far as the errors / crashes / system overloads / kernal panics I think I can sort those out to the mackie onyx satellite not being a good choice and trying to add and remove firewire devices in the middle of the sample rate mayhem. Wow! all I can say is, I'm glad it's over
    Wish me a lot of luck in the future.. I'm sure i'll need it!

  • Drag and drop does not work in Exported release build

    I am using the built in DragManager class to handle some drag and drop functionality in an application.  When running from flex builder, It runs exactly as expected, but when I export the project to a release build, Dragging only works in the vertical direction.  How is this possible?  What might be causing such strange behavior.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Sorry, I will try to be more clear.  I am using drag and drop simply to move items around on a Canvas.  This works perfectly when running from flex builder, but when i export a release build it starts behaving strangely.
    I can drag items up or down on the canvas no problem, but as soon as I try to drag items left or right, there is no response.  On a windows machine, it gives me the black circle with a slash through it icon, implying that the drag is not accepted.  On Mac, there is no icon, it simply will not drag. 
    Hope that clarifies it, I could really use some help figuring this issue out.
    Update:
    I can confirm that the call to DragManager.acceptDragDrop is being reached in both cases, but the DragEvent.DRAG_DROP event is not being handled in the release build, (it is reached when run from flex builder)

  • Drag and drop functionality not working. IE shows ActiveX error

    Hi all,
    we recently installed new server, but on the new server the drag and drop functionality in web dynpro application is not working.
    when we launch the standard test application wdr_test_drag_and_drop, the Internet explorer is showing a popup: An ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe to interact with other parts of the page. Do you want to allow this interaction? Yes/No
    if we allow by clicking Yes or No, the drag/drop functionality is not working.
    first I checked if the issue is with my IE version, but it is not working in any of the IE in any computer.
    when I checked the same application from different ecc server on my IE, the different server application is working.
    in my new server, do we need to do anything more to make the drag/drop working.
    thanks,
    Madhu_1980.

    Hi Madhu,
    GO through this link,  it might help
    Step 1: Go to the Tools menu, and select Internet Options
    There are times when the activex plugins are disabled in our browser settings, just enable them and give it a try.

    Hello SixSigma
    I found the way for GNOME but not KDE.
    Here's a little code:
      public boolean importData(JComponent c, Transferable t) {
        if (canImport(c, t.getTransferDataFlavors())) {
          try {
            DataFlavor[] flavors = t.getTransferDataFlavors();
            for (int i = 0; i < flavors.length; i++) {
              // Drop from Windows
              if (DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor.equals(flavors)) {
    if (t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor) instanceof
    java.util.List) {
    java.util.List fileList = (java.util.List) t.getTransferData(
    DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor);
    if (fileList.get(0) instanceof File) {
    File f = (File) fileList.get(0);
    // Do whatever with the file
    abrirArchivo(f);
    return true;
    return false;
    return false;
    // Drop from GNOME
    else if (DataFlavor.stringFlavor.equals(flavors[i])) {
    if (t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor) instanceof String) {
    String path = (String) t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor);
    path=dropDesdeGnome(path);
    if (path!=null) {
    File f = new File(path);
    // Do whatever with the file
    abrirArchivo(f);
    return true;
    return false;
    return false;
    catch (UnsupportedFlavorException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    return false;
    catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    return false;
    return false;
      public boolean canImport(JComponent c, DataFlavor[] flavors) {
        for (int i = 0; i < flavors.length; i++) {
          if (DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor.equals(flavors)) {
    return true;
    else if (DataFlavor.stringFlavor.equals(flavors[i])) {
    return true;
    return false;
      // Take selection's first file and put off the starting "file://" and the "\n"
      private String dropDesdeGnome(String path) {
        if (path.startsWith("file://")) {
          return path.substring(7, path.indexOf("\n")-1);
        return null;
      }Have tested with GNOME 2.2 and 2.6.
    If anyone achieve drop from KDE, please, post it (I love KDE).

  • Drag and Drop does not work

    my iPhoto was working fine until the last update. Now, it won't let me drag and drop photos from my photos or events to albums, projects or galleries
    is there a setting that has changed...

    Problem solved from another post... sorry for the duplicate thread.
    As posted....
    Go to Font Book in your Applications Folder. Use it to rnable the Helvetica Fonts - if necessary, turn them off and back on again. Restart iPhoto.

  • Drag and drop does not work with multiple images

    if i try to drag and drop more than one image, nothing happens, no activity at all. i think i had this problem on another computer and it had something to do with the fonts. i can not remember exactly thanks iphoto 6

    Go to font book and use it to make sure the helvetica font is enabled - disable and re-enable it if necessary.
    Regards

  • Drag and drop does not work in firefox 3

    Does anybody has the same issue with firefox when you add a layout to the oracle composer and you want to drag and drop some components that it just does not work...
    When i hoover over the title bar of a component i see the cross icon but the drag & drop does not work. WHen i do the same in IE8 or google chrome, it does work.
    I have this issue for both oracle composer stuff as for sites i build in webcenter spaces.
    We are working with the latest version of webcenter

    WebCenter is compatible with:
    * Firefox 2 & 3
    * Internet Exploirer 7 and 8
    * Safari 3.0
    It might be caused by a firefox extension in your browser.
