Drag and drop not correct size

In PSE 12 when I drag and drop a 4.8 in square image onto a 8.5x11 blank page (Both at 300 ppi) the 4.8 image does not show as small, it fills in the larger page. What am I doing wrong?
HELP!

Drag the image from the Layers palette to the work area, not up from the Project bin.
You can try File>Place as well.

Why does drag and drop not work?

Why does drag and drop not work?

Do you mean that when you move files on the Desktop, they don't stay where you put them ?.
If so - use Finder - View menu - Show View options & choose 'Arrange by' : none
If not - please describe exactly what the problem is.

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".
You can file feedback here.

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 notes from mail onto an ical date

I've had some trouble dragging and dropping notes onto an ical date. It shows up as some lengthy message, probably its address on the hard drive, and when I open it, I can't make changes to it. Where can I make a suggestion to apple on how to improve the synchonicity of these 2 apps? Ideally, I'd like to just drag and drop a note, such as a to do list, onto an ical date, and be able to make changes to it there. Or, am I mistaken? Are the notes and to dos actually saved on a mac server, not on my computer somewhere?
Thanks!
Rod

The "lengthy message" is simply the message ID in Mail. If you drag the message to iCal, it will simply set up a link back to that message.
If you drag text from Mail, you will get a new event with all that text as the event title.
I suspect what you want can be achieved by creating an event, naming it and setting its time etc then opening the edit popup and dragging your text or email message onto the notes field at the foot of that popup.

PowerMac 5.1 drag and drop not working, any suggestions?

Powers Mid 2010 5.1 running 10.10.3, drag and drop not working smoothly, won't engage to drag. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the return, well, just trying to relocate a web screen or move a saved application from the desktop into a folder. I use Final Cut Pro Ten extensively and sometimes I want to drag something off my desktop into the time line on the FCPX. When I left click and hold on the item to drag it doesn't seem to engage then when it does move it quits along the way to the drop point. I hope that makes since too you? I use a Logitech two button with a scroll wheel wired mouse and have twin 32" monitors. Thanks Latranner

Drag and drop not working correctly.

I've got a 2nd monitor connected to my iMac 27".
Before, whenever I had a finder (also happens on Adobe Bridge) window open on the other monitor and I drag and drop to the desktop, it would drop the file in the exact spot I dropped it at. Now, for some reason whenever I try to drag and drop, it puts in onto my "Imac monitor" desktop - not the second monitor where I dropped it. Anyone ever experienced this or have any solutions. It may sound like a little thing, but whenever I'm working it just adds an extra step to my process. I appreciate it!!

Hi, not on 10.8 right now, but in Finder>View munu>Show View options, try unchecking Keep Arranged by.

Drag and Drop not working in iTunes 12.1.0.71

I've been working with iTunes on a PC for years - so I'm embarrassed I can't figure this out. As recently as a few weeks ago, I could drag and drop movies and music from Windows Explorer into iTunes 12.1.0.71- now it's not working. Even using the menus for File - Add File to the Library isn't working. Did something change in this release?

Sorry 1 correction on my earlier post. Install iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16) NOT 12.1.0.71!
Thanks Guys! This fixed me up.
I uninstalled
- All Apple Packages
- Bonjour
- iTunes
- Quick Time packages
Deleted the Apple, iTunes, & Quick Times folders:
- c:\Program Files
- c:\Program Files (x86)
- C:\Program Data
- C:\Users\%profile%\AppData\Local
- C:\Users\%profile%\AppData\LocalLow
- C:\Users\%profile%\AppData\Roaming
Rebooted
Sorry 1 correction on my earlier post. Install iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16) NOT 12.1.0.71!
Installed the newest QuickTime 7.7.6
and Bingo! Hopefully the next iTunes release addresses the issue moving forward.
Thanks Again!

Drag and drop not working when uploading file using safari

why i cannot drag and drop any file when using safari , and what happens the file auotmatically open while i need to upload it only , extra for that , i cannot write any remark or fill a space while using website related to my work.
my work is to upload drawing files using dwf file to a website so the other parties can review and give me review , and then i reply to the remark at the same place and make meeting through the same site.
please any body can give any way to correct my mac.
latelly i installed win7 only to use it for that website , and iam now changing from mac to win whenever i want to work , this not acceptable to me because it is waste of time beside i like the mac and it working with other application but not for safari.

why ?
I'm sorry, but every OS is different. You cannot expect all features of one to be in another. Or alternatively, for similar features, be done it the exact same way.
It looks to me after a quick google search that winexplorer is basically the moral equivalent of the mac's finder to present the file system in different ways. The OSX Finder also has alternative views of the file system, i.e., icons, list, columns. Experiment with the list and column views and see if one of them are more to your liking.
As for winexplorer on the mac. I don't know if this simulates it or not but there is a program called Macintosh Explorer so check that out as well.
And finally, in the end, as I said in my earlier post, no matter what, nothing on the mac is going to change what I believe you think you can do and drop a file on a browser window and expect it to upload.

Drag and Drop not working/MSN display picture cannot find Iphoto

I had the ilife '06 and I was able to drag a photo from (lets say) facebook and drop it into iphoto. I am unable to do this in the ilife '09 version. In addition, when I try to change my display picture in msn i cannot click on iphoto only photobooth is highlighted, please help!!!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
I was able to drag a photo from (lets say) facebook and drop it into iphoto. I am unable to do this in the ilife '09 version.
What browser are you using? Safari? If so, right click on the pic and choose 'Add to iPhoto.
In addition, when I try to change my display picture in msn i cannot click on iphoto
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Drag and drop not recognizing duplicates?

Everytime I drag and drop a pic off of like Facebook or anywhere else into iPhoto, about 5 pics (duplicates) appear and then it hangs on one and asks how I'd like to handle duplicates. I check do NOT import and handle all future duplicates similarly. It then proceeds to import from somewhere 75 duplicate pics (the same ones every time but from various events). Occasionally, iphoto adds a more recent pic to the list that it likes to duplicate. I didn't discover this was happening until I tried to sort faces and I discovered I literally had hundreds of the same pics. I deleted manually all but one set and now every time I drag in a pic, I have to manually delete 75 pics that are duplicates.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Interesting. That option does appear in Safari, but not in Foxfire. Safari worked correctly both the way you told me to do it AND by dragging and dropping, so I guess it has something to do with Foxfire and the latest version of iPhoto. It started apparently about the time I upgraded the iLife package. Thank you.
Anyone have ideas or experiencing the same issue with Foxfire?

Drag and Drop not supported in TextBox in Automation

Hi All, This is regarding the drag and drop functionality support in text box in Flex automation. I am using the automation API of Flex. since our application is having multiple modules, I had to use the automation swc given as an attachment in the JIRA Issue 1088. ( bugs.adobe.com/jira/browser/FlexEnt-1088) But these swc are not recording drag and drop on to text box. I tried adding the drag and drop events to the AutoQuickEnv.xml for textbox ; but in vain. Any help is appreciated. Regards Gireesh

Thank you for this hint!
I've installed NW 7.02 ABAP trial within a win x 64 VM on an ESXi 4.1 VMWare Server.

My question:
Where can I get the appr. ACCESS KEYs for the SAP objects I've to correct as described within note 1576441?
Do I have logged on as DDIC or SAP* or ...*
Would be great if you or anyone of this community has a hint acc. to this issue!

Flash drag and drop not finding targets in Captivate

I created a drag and drop game in Flash CS4 using Actionscript 2 which allows you to pull clothing onto a stick figure. If you get the clothes in the right place, over the target, then they stick, if not they return to their original position. It works fine but when I open it in Captivate 4 the targets no longer hold the objects. No matter where you place the clothes icons they will return to their original position.
I have captivate set up for the correct Actionscript and the fps in captivate and the swf are the same. I've included the code I wrote below. Please help if you have any answers as to why this is happening.
shirt_mc.onPress=function(){
startDrag(this);
shirt_mc.onRelease=shirt_mc.onReleaseOutside=function(){
stopDrag();

Hi all,
Thanks for the informative replies. My main issue seems to be when adding animations. For example (I have included one below
). I add this animation to my project and it runs perfectly. I then add another, very similar animation, and the sound dissapears completely in the previous one! I remove the one added, preview the project again and the first animation works again!
The only access I make to Root is through the successful click on the otherTARGET, that tells captivate to move to the next slide. Could this be the root (exuse the pun) of my problems?
Any help appreciated!
stop();
var target:Array=new Array(likelyTARGET,otherTARGET,other1TARGET);
addListners();
var more:Sound = new consequencefocuspeople();
var less:Sound = new consequencemoreserious();
function addListners(){
for (var i in target) {
target[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void
var item:String = event.target.name;
switch(item)
case "otherTARGET":
     var mainmov:MovieClip = MovieClip(root);
      mainmov.rdcmndNextSlide = 1;
break;
case "other1TARGET":
removeAllEventListner()
var soundChannel:SoundChannel = more.play();
soundChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundComplete);
break;
case "likelyTARGET":
removeAllEventListner()
var soundChannel2:SoundChannel = less.play();
soundChannel2.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundComplete);
break;
function soundComplete(event:Event):void {
addListners()
function removeAllEventListner()
for (var i in target)
target[i].removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
thanks,
tristan
