Drag and drop to Collection doesn't work

I have successfully created a Collection but cannot add to it by dragging files from the grid view as suggested in Help. There does not seem to be a menu command to do it either so I am a bit stuck. I am using 1.3.1 on a PC running XP. I have tried it on my laptop which uses Vista with the same result. Has anybody else had this problem? Are there any fixes?

Are you dragging from the center of an image in grid view, not the Border or Cell?

  • Within Music Library can anyone please explain why when I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums?  How can I correct this?  I have tried to 'drag and drop' but that doesn't work.

    Within music Library can anyone please explain why after I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums?  How can I fix this?  I have tried to manually correct by 'drag and drop' individual tracks but that doesn't work.  My music library includes a number of repeat album artwork images simply because not all tracks are being listed under the one album making my library more difficult to use than it should.  Any advise would be appreciated.

  • How do I move photos from iphoto to imovie trailer?  It says just drag and drop but it doesn't take them.

    Macbook Pro imovie 11 trailer says to "just drag and drop photos" but it doesn't work????

    You cannot put photos in a trailer. They are designed for videos.
    However, there is a way around this.
    Go to the Project Library view. Select your Trailer. Now, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
    Now you can add photos.

  • Drag and drop mail to mailboxes not working

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro, when I attempt to drag and drop an e-mail message from my inbox to another mailbox (folder), has stopped working.  I can still move mail to different mailboxes from the Toolbar / Message / Move to. 
    I'm using Apple Mail 6.0.  I've looked, but do not see any functions in Mail Preferences or Mailbox functions that enables or disables this feature.  Am I looking in the wrong place or missing something?
    Thanks, Terry

    It's actually much worst than that.  THe MOVE command works only intermittently to move blocks of messages.  This is true for both the MOVE button in the toolbar and for attempting tm move by using the control-click menu for a selected group of messages.
    Mail 5.2 under Lion does not fail in this way.  I am running two systems with the same collections of mail on each.
    I moved back to Apple Mail because of the end-of-life status of TBird. TB has lots of bells and whistles that make for easy use and it has handled by 30K/6.5GB mail collection without difficulty.  It also provides a lot of features that Mail does not have, including very helpful statistics during operations.
    I looked at a variety of Mail replacements inculding all the commercial stuff.  But nothing really dominates the marketplace andl the vendors seem frail.  It's clear that the big money is in cloud-service e-mail handling, not apps to run on machines you own and control.
    I imagined that Apple developed and maintained software would be more reliable and sustainable in the long run. It is distressing that the company's test and QA processes did not catch this but I suppose that Apple too is planning on letting Mail wither as their cloud service gains users and market share.  Why sell an app once when you can charge a monthly fee for the service.  It's perhaps cheeky to say but the cloud isn't a technological model it's a business model.

  • After upgrade to Yosemite, drag and drop for files does not work, destination folder crashes.

    After upgrading to Yosemite, dragging and dropping files from one location to the destination folder, causes the destination folder crash. However, copying the file and then moving it works fine.
    I'm not sure where to report bugs, but I figured this would be the best option

  • Drag and drop music in iTunes not working

    Hi all,
    I am having problems dragging and dropping music in iTunes from my media library to my iPhone music library. The only possible way to import music is to sync playlists (which I hate doing). Does anybody else have this problem?
    Thanks!

    You need to make sure that your settings allow you to manually manage music. I believe it is a check box on the main settings page for your iPhone.

  • Drag and drop messages in Mail not working.

    I no longer seem to be able to drag messages from my Inbox mailbox to another 'On My Mac' mailbox. I can still use the contextual menu or menu bar 'move to' command to move it to a specific box, but no mouse-dragging. Even "click-wait-drag" doesn't work...
    I see this issue appeared with and has been about since, 10.6.1 but the two topics (I could find), discussing it have been Archived

    Try doing a save as to the desktop and then try dragging thr .rtf file to the usb drive

  • Drag and Drop Mail attachment won't work stable since 10.9

    Hi,
    this problem occurred on my system after upgrading from 10.8 to 10.9 and is still present under 10.10.2 (besides the well known WIFI issues that weren't cured at all with 10.10.1 nor 10.10.2)
    After some time of work, I'm not able to copy attachments from mails into new mails or in finder by simply dragging. The mouse cursor won't grab the files any more as if this feature was never present.Restarting Mail.app will help for some time but the error reappears.
    I've checked system.log and was able to identify the following log as soon as the bug appears.

    Any thoughts?

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
    Envelope Index
    ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Unable to drag and drop betwen collections

    I seem to be chronically unable to drag a phot from one collection to another in the manner set forth in the documentation. It would also be nice to be able to frag a phot from a folder into a collection.

    This is doable. However, you have to drag from the center of an image thumbnail, not the cell or boarder.
    It is not like dragging a window.

  • I've put together a slide show and cannot get it on You tube.  I've put the presentation together in Iphoto, then sent it to ITune and I cannot get Youtube to accept it.  On the upload page, Youtube even says just drag and drop. That didn't work.  Help!

    To repeat my problem, I've put together a slide presentation and am trying to get it on Youtube...have compiled photos and music under IPhoto, then moved it to ITunes to dump into YouTube, but can't get anything to go thru.  Have submitted two previous slideshows and don't remember ever having this probem.  Am sure I'm doing something wrong.  Anyone have suggestion(s) as to how to get this on to Youtube.  Have been stonewalled for the last two hours.  Thank You.

    Sanjam....you are having the identical problem I'm having.  Re the response to your dilemma, I'm gonna see if there is a way to export.  If I figure something out to get on YouTube will let you know and would appreiate you doing the same.
