Drag and drop from applications onto desktop iOS Mavericks

I upgraded to iOS mavericks thia morning and hve noticed that i can't drag and drop files from applications to the desktop anymore, a feature that made past iOS systems so great. Examples of this is trying to drag an image from a site (in a browser) to the desktop and dragging attachements out of email to the desktop. Is anyone else having this issue with iOS mavericks?

Did anybody get an answer on this?
I am having difficulties with moving files from the email to the finder..drag and drop does not work.
Thank you

  • Can't drag-and-drop from CD to Desktop

    I can't drag-and-drop a photo from an Iphoto CD to the Desktop. I was able to do this on my old 17"IMAC. But the new 20" won't allow me to this anymore. Once I drag it past the Iphoto window the cursor has a circle with a bar across. The MAC person at CompUSA couldn't help. Can you? His suggestion was to drag it to the Iphoto library and then drag it out of the library to the Desktop. Huh?

    In Iphoto, I select the albums I want to copy. I then hit burn CD. It then determines the amount of space needed. Then I hit burn CD again. Its begins burning the CD, then it verifies the CD, then ejects the CD when completed.
    When the CD is re-inserted, Iphoto displays it as a regular album. I select the album, then a file, and attempt to drag-and-drop that file to the desktop. The cursor appears as a circle with a bar and it won't allow a one-step drag-and drop as with the old 17" IMAC.

  • I can't drag and drop from windows explorer into my ipod on itunes. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    I manage my music/podcast library on my Vista PC using windows explorer because I don't like how iTunes does it. Then today I can no longer drag and drop from explorer onto my iPod in iTunes all I get is a circle with a line through it meaning "iTunes says no." Any suggestions?

    You will need to Sync your iPad and all Music/Albums Selected will transfer over from iTunes..

  • Drag and Drop from LR to other applications

    There was a thread going on D&D from LR to explorer.
    The other appliation problem I have is the apparent inability to drag and drop from lightroom into a file transfer window (e.g., file upload with SmugMug).
    The quick collection is an awesome way to organize a storyline of images from a shoot, select only the images needed, and prepare a shoot for upload. However, short of exporting to a folder first, is there a way to just drag and drop the file set from a LR view (filmstrip or thumbs) to another app? This would just be providing file handles, and I would be satisfied if it only grabbed the original images (pre-"develop").
    Anyone have any luck with this?
    -- Jeff

    No. And not likely anytime soon. Putting a Pointer/alias to SmugMug (if it is an uploader client app, not familiar with it) in the Export Actions Folder for Post Processing from Export is the best you can do at the monemt. To get LR rdits out of LR you have to Export. D&D just isn't going to do that for you.

  • I can't drag and drop from photos 1.0 to desktop

    I can't drag and drop from photos 1.0 to desktop

    What happens if you double click on the thumbnail to view the photo in a larger size?  If you Control-click on the thumbnail and select "Show File" or "Show Original" (if it's been edited) are you taken to the folder where the original file is located an it highlighted?

  • Issue : drag and drop from list control to tree control

    Hi,
    I was trying a drag and drop from list control to tree control. I have used some sample data to populate list and tree controls .
    It is working fine . except one problem ..
    Prob : when i drag an item to tree control .. it gets added .. now tree contains (X+1) data in list .. say X is the inital number of nodes in a tree node.
              now if i drag another item from list to last item in the tree node  .. i.e at X+1 index. .. it throws null pointer exception.
    I am considerably new in flex programming . looking for help from experts ..

    Ya , i have searched and have used the same code.
    But needed to customize few things like:
    stop dnd in same tree
    drop some item into a folder ..( onto it ) etc
    have achieved the same .. but this issue ..
    i think the tree dataprovider (contents internally is not being updated .. only the UI)
    any suggestions ?

  • Downloads dragged and dropped from Firefox download window into Outlook e-mail show as file location text.

    I have a user who normally can drag files from Firefox's Download window into an e-mail in Outlook and it creates an attachment of that file in the e-mail. However, lately, the dragged .pdf or whatever file only shows up as a text file location like:
    \\file:%Downloads%\randomfile.pdf
    It's not a link either, it's just the text.
    I've tried doing a repair of Outlook.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 19.
    I've tested dragging items from the desktop to the e-mail and it works fine.
    I can't drag and drop from the Downloads window to the desktop.
    I just wanted to add this user is using Windows XP Pro.

    I can confirm that this is an issue with the newest release of Firefox. I just upgraded my Firefox, which was previously 18.02 to 19.0 and now I'm getting the same error. It's a bug.

  • I can't drag and drop from a data CD I recorded

    I recently burned some audiobooks files (in mp3 format) as data cd's in Toast 8.0.1. When I go to reload them back onto my 20" 2 Ghz Dual Core Intel I can't drag and drop the files directly into any folder while using the columns view in a finder window. I can do it if I drag onto the music folder and let it spring open down to the level of the folder. I also can drag the mp3's into iTunes and then into the folder. This is not CD related since I used several diff brands.
    I constantly update, backup, repair permissions, and do other maintenance so everything is up to date. I have noticed this behavior just since I started to use the program called Audiobook Builder. I am (and have always used) a non-admin user account. When this started a few months ago it seemed to go away with a restart, permission repair, or a logout but now it seems permanant. I checked user permissions on my home folder - I have not added any software since adding Audiobook Builder. Any idea's? I read something about trashing a com.apple pref but didn't try that.
    I suspect Audiobook Builder since it changes the permissions and filetype to the iTunes Audiobook filetype but have not seen anyone reference this.

    While the programming of course could be done, the idea of a function that performs on original unprocessed images seems to violate the whole idea of what Lightroom was designed to be. At least that's my opinion. Of course, the idea that Adobe should do this programming for a relatively small number of people (you're one of a very few people to ask for this, that I have read) seems to be something that isn't going to happen.
    I agree, I can't see much reason for drag-and-drop to drag the unprocessed image - in other words, an image that isn't the one that you see when you drag and drop.  I can see that just filling this forum with "why the heck does it do that????????" posts.  I could be wrong, but I suspect that Adobe won't do that. 
    But if you do want to drag-and-drop the original unprocessed image, you can do it very easily now.  Right click the image, choose "show in Explorer", and then drag-and-drop from Explorer. 

  • Can't drag and drop from page view

    Can't drag and drop from page view to desktop even though plus icon shows up for duplicating the page.  On Mac 10.9.2 Acrobat XI. I don't want to extract through the menu and associated dialogues.  Its slow and cumbersome.

    Hi Peterbruce,
    Acrobat for Windows will let you select pages in the Pages panel and drag them to your desktop, but that isn't an option in Acrobat for Mac OS. You can drag thumbnails from the Pages panel in one doc, to the Pages panel in another, however.
    Best,

  • Can't drag and drop from Address Book to Mail?

    Hi,
    I have always used Address Book to store my email contact information in SL. When I wanted to send an email, I would drag and drop from Address Book to the "To:" field in Mail and it would add the contact information to Mail. I upgraded to Lion, and now when I try this, the address icon moves like it should, the little green circle with the + in it appears when I hover over the field, but when I release it does not add the address to Mail. The drag and drop does not work at all, but it looks like it should. I have searched all around but have not found any information about this. Does anyone know what's up with this? How can I fix it? Thanks in advance.

    Are you dragging from the actual AddressBook application, or the Address icon you can add to the NewMail and Reply toolbars in Mail?  (It ought to be there by default, but isn't).
    Either should work, but if AB doesn't, try the icon method:

    hello, does anyone know why when i drag and drop from the internet,why my images never show up?

    I'm wanting to drag images from the internet into a folder on my desktop or hard drive. I am used to being able to drag just about any image from any website off the web and into a folder on my old mac, but since I got my laptop, I've noticed I cannot do that. Is it a preference?

  • Drag and drop from pages tab

    I am trying to drag a page from acrobat reader into a C# application.  The only information i need from acrobat is the filename and the page number or numbers.  Is this information accessible? Do i need to cast the dataObject i am being sent to a different type? Has anyone had success with drag and drop from inside accrobat to another application?
    Any help at all would be very appreciated.

    Reader does NOT support dragging from the pages panel.
    Adobe Acrobat, however, does.  But the only supported destinations for dragging from the pages tab are another Acrobat window or the Finder/Explorer.  Any other destination is untested and unsupported.

  • Why doesn't the original document I'm dragging and dropping from one folder to another move?

    Why doesn't the original document I'm dragging and dropping from one folder to another move?
    What's happening is the computer is creating a duplicte of the document and placing it in the new location with a new creation date.  The original document I wanted to drag and drop into a new location remains where it started as the "original" document and the new copy has this little arrow protruding up from the lower left of its icon.
    At first I thought it was an alias, but it's a copy of the document I thought I was dragging and dropping.
    What gives here?
    Steve

    That arrow indicates it is a linik to the original, though. This happens if you wish to drag files, for which you do not have permissions to do this operation, e.g. from Library or System folder. I am pretty sure you do not accomplish this operation from/to folders like Desktop or Documents; if so, there is a problem with your system.

  • I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.
