Drag and drop isn't working with itunes

I recently did an update for my iphone and itunes. Now when I try to drag anything out of my itunes it won't work. It doesn't show the plus sign. I tried adding books and music to my iphone and it doesn't work either. I have "maually manage music and videos" selected and I clicked Sync and it's still not working. I've deleted the preferences. Not sure what else to do and looking for any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

In iTunes on your computer, choose File > Add to Library and select the PDF. Then sync. See iTunes Help for more info about syncing

  • Drag and Drop isn't working on iTunes in Windows 8.1

    I did a clean install of 8.1; drivers for all devices up to date.  I cannot use the drag and drop feature in iTunes (for example, to add songs to a playlist).  Can anyone offer a solution?  Do I  have to have Quicktime or Java installed in addition to iTunes?

  • Drag and Drop isn't Working

    For some reason drag and drop in the Finder isn't working.  If I click on a file or folder it highlights, but when I hold the click and attempt to move it, it stays put.  The cursor moves but it doesn't take the file or folder with it.  So I can't reposition folders and I can't move them to other folders or the Desktop.

    I restarted and the problem resolved itself.  That's going to be a work around for others experiencing the issue but I'm not fully satisfied with that being the case.  This only confirms there was some kind of bug in play and that the OS is vulnerable to these kind of issues.  I'm hopefull Apple will look into this as one of Mac OS X's strongpoints is supposed to be its reliability.

  • Drag-and-drop no longer working in iTunes 7.7

    Recently I've not been able to drag movies onto my iPod touch, neither from the Finder or from within iTunes. They'll drag into playlists, but the green Plus symbol disappears when I move it over my touch. The only way to get movies onto the touch is to 'sync' them, which is VERY inconvenient and tedious if you have lots of files. Is this a change in iTunes 7.7, and if so why??? If not, is there anything I can do to restore drag and drop?

    Update on the problem. 
    The problem was that you cannot drag and drop when in Administrator mode.  Indesign was crashing if I did not open in administrator mode.  The reason why Indesign was crashing has something to do with licensing of the computer and software...  This is a new computer and the c drive is a solid state chip. To conserve c drive space, we setup c:temp to be on a separate drive.  That's why Indesign would not open normally.  You must have your c:temp on your user account to be directed to c:temp.

    Changes must be made in four places.  Dig around here, you'll find them.

  • Drag and drop doesn´t work with photoshop

    Hi,
    I can't open any files in ps anymore by simply drag and drop the file on the ps app. open with in the context menue doesn't help either, ps is called up, but the file is not opened. looks like some other people had the same problem, but the links are all broken.

    Take a look in the root Library folder (not your home one) and see if you have the ScriptingAdditions folder with the Adobe Units Types file inside. If not that is your problem. You can either reinstall Photoshop, or you can create the ScriptingAdditions folder and download and unzip the file HERE, then put it in the ScriptingAdditions folder. NB: there is NO SPACE in the folder's name.

  • File links / drag and drop no longer work with MS Office 2008

    not sure what happened, but my installed and up to date version of MS Office suddenly refuses to accept file open events. Cannot double click on files anymore, nor can I drop files into the MS icons in the dock. The only way to open files is now using the "open" command from inside the application.
    This error seems to be global on my system, across multiple user personalities, and doesn't go away with a restart.
    Anyone have an idea what could be the problem?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Do a "get info" on one of these files.
    About the middle of the info box is a pull down menu labeled "open with".
    Pick your office app and then check the box labeled " change all".
    Now double click on the type of file that pertains to the app you choose.
    If this does work, do the same for one file each of the office apps.

  • Drag-and-drop no longer working in FF

    All drag-and-drop features stopped working on my FF 21.
    That is, I can no longer:
    - Drag items to bookmarks or rearrange the bookmarks
    - Drag words to the search box or links to the URL box
    - Change the order of tabs
    - Rearrange items on toolbars
    - Move text in text boxes
    - etc.
    Safe mode exhibits the same problems.
    Please advise.

    I am having this problem as well. It persists even with all my extensions and add-ons disabled, and even in Safe Mode.
    I tried both solutions above. I downloaded FF21 installer, uninstalled FF, then reinstalled. Still cannot drag and drop anything. So I reset Firefox. Still no drag and drop. No rearranging tabs, no dragging images on web pages, you get the idea.

  • Drag and drop doesn't work after upgrading to Yosemite

    It is strange.  Since upgrading yesterday to Yosemite, my drag and drop does not working consistently.  I use drag and drop all of the time, into emails, moving files from one folder to another, moving music from finder to itunes, etc.  It seems each time I try to drag a file, initially the Finder window I am dragging from crashes and re-starts.  Once it re-starts, I actually am able to move a file as normal for about a minute or two.  After a minute or two, if I try to drag and drop a file, again it crashes and re-opens.
    Does anyone have any ideas?  I did submit a bug notice to Apple, but thought maybe someone would have a fix.

    I'm not sure if this experience relates to your issue but maybe..
    After upgrading my iMac to Yos, I could only select and copy files to relocate them. Frustrating for a couple of days. I eventually found that the setting on my trackpad was for three fingers over a selected file/folder window/etc moved the item to where I wanted. It had automatically changed to this preference. Its called a 'three finger drag'. The video shows a pane being moved but it also applies to all files etc. It can found in preferences/trackpad/point & click. Here you can turn it off if that is hat is causing the issue. Otherwise no software solutions I'm aware of. Good luck.

  • Drag and drop photos not working

    With Aperture 3.5 you can no longer Drag a photo to another app, such as iMessage and drop the photo into that app.
    The target Apps do not see the Drag operation and therefore ignore it (don't show the + when ready to accept the dropped photo).
    Drage and Drop continues to work on earlier Aperture releases even if you update to Mavericks.

    And it works with iMessages.
    After enabling the previews in Aperture's preferences you need to generate them. The previews settings will only automatically create previews for new photos. To generate them for older images, use the command "Photos > Update Preview".
    How large are the images, that you try to drag? For very small images Aperture will not create previews at all, if the images have not been adjusted.

  • Drag and drop feature stopped working when updated to Aurora 18.0a2. What is the problem?

    Cannot drag and drop letters on Words With Friends on Facebook, or Yahoo Fantasy Football.

    biggsbdavis:
    Try disabling and then re-enabling the Helvetica font. Sometimes that's all it takes.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Illustrator extension - Drag and drop is not working on mac

    During testing my extension on Mac,I noticed that drag and drop doesn't work as expected. Therefore I have created a new simple extension with two lists.
    <s:List id="lst1" label="name" dragEnabled="true">
         <tree>
              <name>a</name>
              <name>b</name>
              <name>c</name>
         </tree>
    </s:List>
    <s:List id="lst2" dropEnabled="true" dragMoveEnabled="true"> </s:List>
    This will allow lst1 items to be dragged and drop in lst2.
    This sample works fine on Windows and on Mac as AIR app  but not working as extension on Illustrator( Not able to drag and drop between list on mac).
    Any help or workaround would be appreciated.

    Thanks for quick reply and help. I am able to drag multiple files but this is giving problem in case of filename with spaces like "abc def.png". Can you please put some thoughts on this.
    DataFlavor uriListFlavor = new DataFlavor("text/uri-list;class=java.lang.String");
                   Reader in = (Reader)t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.plainTextFlavor);

                   String uriStr;
                   while ((uriStr = br.readLine()) != null)

                       GalleryUtils.generateILPFromFile(new File(url.getFile()), category);
