Drag and drop still frames

I want to export a number of still frames from a movie for insertion into a report made using Pages
At present I use imovie 6 HD and I can command F to save the frame to a folder of choice and later command drag and drop to insert the saved still frame within the confines of a table cell. I can also use quicktime 7 pro and command E to export as a picture
I got to thinking why can't I just drag and drop the frame I am viewing straight from the open quicktime window into the table cell in Pages. I just want the still frame not the whole movie.
Any work arounds?
Thanks in anticipation

Actually it is not such a bad idea as I email a pdf version to my customers anyway. Using PDF shrink I got a 66 meg pages file with 6 'stills' down to 106kb. It initially went down to 1meg just using export from Pages
The trouble is that the large size of the pages document makes it a bit slow to respond if lots of 'stills' are taken from a large movie file.
Shame there is not a keyboard combination to do what I wanted in the first place using drag n drop
I shouldn't complain though. I understand that the current imovie still can't export still frames at all.
Thanks again for your interest

Drag and drop STILL sketchy in Struts Page Flow

Struts Page Flow has been a major problem area in JDev since it was introduced, and I am still having some useability issues with it.
I CANNOT drag an application module method out, onto a data action; if the data action isn't one of the newest actions on the page. If the action has more than one target, (multiple "forwards") or just isn't one of the "newest" actions on the page, the GUI shows me dragging a the method from an app mod out onto the action, but no work is done once I drop it. I must delete the data action, and re-create it. This, in the mean time, will overwrite any data action class I had defined originally.
This needs to be fixed very soon, as it has been in every build of 10g that I have dealt with.

Ok. To reproduce the bad drag and drop behavior:
Create a Misc Data page, name it "Home"
Drag a data page out, name it "A", and put stuff on it. (Doesn't need to be complex).
Drag an action out, name it "B".
Drag another action out, name it "C"
Connect a forward from "A" to "B", connect a forward from "B" to "C". Connect a forward from "C" to "Home".
Connect a "fail" forward back, from "B" to "A".
Try to drag a method off of an applicaiton module to Action "B". It should not work.

Drag and drop picture frames in Photoshop Elements 11 from one file to another?

Hello,
I am a digital scrapbooker.
I recently started using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11. I previously had been using Elements 7. I make extensive use of Picture Frames i.e "Basic Black 10px", and in Elements 7, it was very easy to drag and drop a picture frame from one file to another. (I use a separate file for each scrapbook page, and I often move pictures between pages as I scrap them)
In Photoshop Elementa 11, I can drag and drop a picture frame from one file to another, but ONLY if there is no picture in it. If there is a picture, I cannot drag and drop - the circle-slash icon appears showing that it won't land. I was able to do this in Photoshop Elements 7, whether or not there was a picture in the frame.
Any ideas of what I might be doing wrong, or did Photoshop Elements change this functionality?
Thank you!

I think this might be a bug in pse 11, at least on the windows version.
You might try right clicking on the frame layer in the layers panel, choose Duplicate Frame Layer and pick your other document as the destination.

4.0 EA3 -- SQL Server Drag and drop still not working

My clients love SQLD D because they can access SQL Server and Access as well as Oracle of course.
Drag and Drop of tables from the table view have not worked in a while.
appear to only see things in the Master Database. Even if you retrieve the list of databases and set you still en up only in the MASTER.
You then have to fully qualify to retrieve a table.

What exactly is your question here?

Error when dragging and dropping still image into imovie

I am trying to place some still images into iMovie but when doing so I get the following error message :
"Import Problem
The still image file "file name" couldn't be copied as a JPEG image. The clip has been imported, but you won't be able to apply Ken Burns effects to it."
I really want to be able to apply the ken Burns effect. Can someone help with a fix to get around this problem.
thanks

Drag and Drop only partly functions in OSX Yosemite

I recently updated my Macbook Pro to OSX Yosemite and noticed a few weeks after the update, that Drag and Drop stopped working properly roughly 30mins after starting the MB. Drag and Drop still works in the Finder for dragging files, or ein Chrome for dragging a tab into a diferent window. But dragging files and programs into the Dock is impossible. the problem occurs in other programs such as MS Office, for changing the order of pages in a presentation, or in Itunes for dragging Albums into Playlists for example. Restarting helps, but only for the first moments after the start. I found in a different Discussion that deleting a Cache file from the Library (/Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist) didnt help (Link to the Discussion: Cannot drag and drop files in Finder on Yosemite 10.10
Thanks for your time in advance and i hope someone finds a solution as I dont want to reinstall the whole OSX

Backgorund:
Drag-drop suddenly stops working.
Temporary solutions:
4-5 reboots
Removing com.apple.finder.plist file
Have not tried:
Reinstall Yosemite
What I found out:
For me, I found out that it's not only about drag/drop - it's about the clipboard. As far as copy/paste went, "nothing" work anymore. Not drag and drop, not cmd+c, not Edit > Copy. I started experience the issue just yesterday I think - it came out of the blue.
However, a week ago I created an Automator scripts that review folder X for extension Y and then moves the file of said extension into a separate folder. Essentially, it's a cut and paste job that Automator does all the time.
Soluton:
Removed the Automator workflow i created from /users/username/library/workflows. Rebooted computer. Drag/drop and copy/paste has been working for over an hour.

Can't drag and drop files in iTunes 7.6

I've suddenly lost the ability to drag and drop files in iTunes, so I can't change the order of items within a playlist, move tracks from one playlist to another, or move a selection of tracks to an external drive. When I click & hold on a track, nothing happens at all; if you try to drag the file it doesn't move then bounce back - just no reaction at all. One day it worked fine, next time I launched iTunes the problem appeared. I'd had 7.6 up and running for about a month without this problem, and had no other software downloads or updates immediately before the problem appeared. I'd not changed any iTunes preferences either.
I've checked that lefthand column in the playlist is selected, & that shuffle is turned off, & I'm not trying to move things into a smart list. I've tried trashing the com.apple plist, and repairing disk permissions. My iTunes library lives on an external hard drive, but this hasn't been an issue before. Drag and drop still works fine in other apps, so I don't suppose it's a mouse or Finder issue.
I see a few other people have posted about this, but I haven't seen any solutions yet that worked for me. Am I missing something blindingly obvious? If anyone's got any ideas on this one I'd be eternally grateful - the ability to move things around easily was one of the main attractions of iTunes for me.

Thanks David - that wasn't it, but I have managed to find a fix after trawling through various forums - I logged out then logged back in. Simple as that! Sadly I'm still none the wiser as to what caused the problem in the first place, so don't know if or when it'll reoccur. I also found it was affecting iPhoto after I first posted, so not an iTunes specific problem obviously. Thanks to all those who posted fixes in various forums, though some looked a little too scary for me to try out...

Drag and drop into subject line

I installed OS 10.4.5 and use Tiger mail. I noticed that unlike Panther mail, in Tiger mail draging text from the message to the subject box doesn't work. Sure you can copy and paste but in old mail, you drag and drop. It's absent in Tiger. You can drag to the other address windows even if it's text and not an Email address. I went back to Panther to make sure. Drag and drop still works. I tried repairing permissions with no change. Thanks.

Thanks for the confirmation. I’m surprised more Mac fans haven’t made a peep. Maybe the majority of users are new and they’re not used to drag and drop?
Another fine point in mail is that the space bar will only work once for deleting space or text. In Panther Mail, one could use the space bar an unlimited number of times to delete space or text but not in Tiger mail. I tried running repair permissions, also DiskWarrior without any change. Trying the same deleting sequence in TextEdit using the space bar proceeds normally. Maybe Apple dropped that feature thinking nobody would notice?

How do I drag and drop an attachment into a Gmail message I am composing?

I just installed Firefox 4.0 onto a newer notebook PC. It doesn't behave the same as Firefox 3.6.16 on my older notebook PC.
I use Google mail a lot. On my old machine, whenever I am composing an email all I have to do is drag and drop a file's icon and that file becomes an attachment to the email that I am composing. This is a *** GREAT *** feature !!! When I drag the icon over the composing window, a green stripe appears just below the To: information, and I drop the icon anywhere within that stripe.
If there was anything I had to do to setup that feature, I sure don't remember what it was. On 4.0 on my new machine, no green stripe appears and dropping doesn't work. On the same Gmail account on my old machine, drag and drop still works.
Can anyone help?

Drag and Drop Attachments

Does anybody know what allows/restricts the feature to drag and drop attachments onto email ?
I used to use this all the time, then suddenly a few month ago, couldn't. i have tried myself to figure out why, without success.
I am using BT Yahoo Mail through IE11.0 on Windows 7. IE is set to 'auto-update' so something may have been reset, but i cant figure out what that might be.
Attachment though the paperclip icon works OK.
More mysteriously, my laptop uses the same setup but drag and drop still works OK on that !
Any ideas please ?
thanks
John

What is your operating system?

Still loose ability to drag and drop files in Project pane.

In the last two weeks, I've had two instances where I lost
the ability to drag and drop files within the Project pane.
However, here's the kicker...the problem doesn't manefest itself
until after I end my session, close RH, then restart the computer
and restart the project. That means I don't know that I'm working
in a broken project until AFTER I've zipped up and saved the
current project. I tried addressing this in this orum once already
and I received some suggested fixes (included in the list below)
but it never fixed and and has happened again.
Some pieces of information:
- I've deleted the .xpj and cpd files, no joy.
- I've regenerated the output, then tried to move a file, no
joy.
- I've generated a CHM (supposedy to update other files), no
joy.
- I'm not attempting to move a file to a directory where that
name already exists
- If while I'm having the problem, I create a nw project, new
folders, and new topics, they move around fine.
- If I create a topic IN the directory with the problem, I
cannot move that file.
- I've zippd up a broken project and sent it to Adobe. They
openned it and it was fine. They zipped it back to me and it still
wasn't.
- If I create a new project, replicate my directory
structure, and import the htm files into the new structure (a
ubdirectory at a time), the files move fine.
- I'm only working local on Windows 2000 with 30 GB of disk
space, and I have not installed anything else on the computer in
the last 2 weeks.
- I've escalated this to the next level at Adobe and am
sitting by my phone with my headset waiting for the call back
"within the next two hours".
Anyone seen this?

I'm not sure on the exact details of your process, but if you
open the project after unzipping it, perhaps the unzip process has
changed that file attribute...?
I appreciate your response, but no...all files and
directories had all permissions allowed. The zip process wasn't
involved until aftrer the problem showed itself...I zip just for
backup with the hope that I never have to go to it. It was my
working project that lost the ability to move files. It just turns
out that after it happened and I went to the zip that it showed
that the problem had affected the files before I zipped them and
therefore, the zip was of the broken set.
