Drag ´n Drop doesn´t work anymore :(

Hello,
it seems that Adobe has changed the way to make a Drag
´n Drop in FW CS4. You can only Drop a Image into a already
opened workspace resp. canvas.
Thats quite peeving, cause if you have a canvas with example
400 x 400 px and you like to drop a image from a digicam with
2300px resolution, you have to resize it on and on and on with the
Shift and Pointer tool to get it on the litle canvas.
Has anybody a hint how could make this paste easier? Or may
there are some extension which ask during the paste which size the
pasted image like to have?
Thanks for any idear.
Regards
P

OK. you have to drop the image into the top toolbar arear.
Still have the Problem with big images droped into small canvas.
regards
switch

    Try this first. On your hard drive, go to Users / yourself / Library / Preferences.
    In that Preferences folder there is a file called com.apple.finder.plist.
    Trash that file and restart.

    Please do a SMC and PRAM reset using the directions in iMac SMC and PRAM reset. If that doesn't work then please tell us exactly which mouse you own, it's possible it needs cleaning or replacing.

  • 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 doesn't work on non-intel machines

    It may be just me but Pages on my Macbook Pro allows me to drag and drop. The same document on my work G5 doesn't have this functionality. Both machines run 10.4.10 though the G5 doesn't have all the latest updates (corporate firewall issues)
    I am assuming its the different processor but would be interested to know of others experience.

    I drag & drop in Pages, Numbers, AppleWorks, etc. on both my G5 tower & my MacBook Pro all the time, no problems. There is a trick, though. You do need to click & then wait a half-second or so before dragging.

  • Problem Cursor disappears / Drag and Drop doesn't work

    Hey everybody,
    I have an urgent problem!
    Three butterflies are supposed to be dragged in an object.  My customized cursor is sort of a landing net to catch these butterflies.
    For the cursor I have this code:
    cursor_mc.startDrag("true");
    Mouse.hide();
    My drag and drop code is:
    cursor_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMove);
    redbutterfly_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMove);
    violetbutterfly_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMove);
    yellowbutterfly_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMove);
    cursor_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopMove);
    redbutterfly_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopMove);
    violetbutterfly_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopMove);
    yellowbutterfly_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopMove);
    function startMove(evt:MouseEvent):void {
       redbutterfly_mc.startDrag();
       cursor_mc.startDrag();
       violetbutterfly_mc.startDrag();
       yellowbutterfly_mc.startDrag();
    function stopMove(evt:MouseEvent):void {
       redbutterfly_mc.stopDrag();
       cursor_mc.stopDrag();
       violetbutterfly_mc.stopDrag();
       yellowbutterfly_mc.stopDrag();
    But when I'm clicking on a butterfly my cursor stops to move and stays on the position of the butterfly, which i'm dragging. After dropping it, there is no cursor at all so one doesn't know where the mouse is currently located.
    Does someone know why this doesn't work? I'm working currently with a mousefollower, because at the moment this is the only way it works..
    The mousefollower code is:
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler)
    function enterFrameHandler(event:Event):void {
        cursor_mc.x += cursor_mc.mouseX / 4;
        cursor_mc.y += cursor_mc.mouseY / 4;
    But now I have the problem that only the yellow butterfly moves even if I'm clicking on the red or the violet...
    Please help me!! Thank you in anticipation!

    You've solved the problem, thank you very much!
    Since it seems you know all about actionscript or at least all answers to my questions, I try my luck a further time
    If I wanted to collect the caught butterflies in a certain target, for example a flowerpot, where the butterflies can't be removed after dragged in, is this more or less the code for it? I haven't tried it yet but I'm searching the internet for something like that and maybe it is the right thing? And is in this case "myTarget" the name of the picture which is used as the target? Thank you in advance!
    function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
        event.target.startDrag(true);
        event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
        startX = event.target.x;
        startY = event.target.y;
    function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {
        event.target.stopDrag();
        var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name;
        var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName);
        if (event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){
            event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
            event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
            event.target.buttonMode = false;
            event.target.x = myTarget.x;
            event.target.y = myTarget.y;
            counter++;

  • 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.
    your help would be very much appreciated.
    thanks

    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.

  • Drag n' drop doesn't work

    When I drag photos from iPhoto to desktop or a folder in the Finder, it seems to copy the files - and then all of the files disappear! I can export the files, but why doesn't the drag n' drop work? I'm using Lion and iPhoto 11.

    Create a folder on the Desktop and see if you can drag and drop onto it.  If not then make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a viable backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • My 'drag and drop' doesn't work using Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.2 on iMac

    Drag and drop occasionally works between folders but very rarely - and now not at all. I have tried various remedies suggested onthis forum, but they didn't work.
    Copy and paste is a real drag (sorry!)

    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 guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    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?
    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, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. 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:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    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 next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    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.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    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.

  • Itunes 10.5 beta - can't create playlists, drag n drop doesn't work

    I used 10.5 beta and now I create a new playlist but can't drag and drop my files to it.  Any ideas?

    10.5 has not be released to the general public since it is a BETA, so this is not the place to ask for help with this. Since the BETA is available officially for registered developers only, as a registered developer you have direct access to the appropriate Apple personnel for this and access to the developer's discussions area.

  • Drag and drop doesn't work in Optimise Toolbars

    when I try to add an icon to the taskbar, nothing happens. The moved icon is shown as being in an unusable place (black circle with diagonal bar).
    Also I cannot unlock the elements in the toolbars to rearrange them...

    You can only drag icons onto one of the toolbars at the top.<br />
    If you want them on the Status Bar then that should be supported by that extension.

  • Drag & Drop doesn't work in XP64!?

    That's a strange one... I've built a Flex interface
    that run's fine in XP32. Now I try to run that with Firefox 32 and
    the most recent Flash Player, and drag and drop doesn't work :-(
    The drag does not even start. Beside that problem, the app
    works fine.
    Any ideas, helpful hints or suggestions?
    Thanks a million

    Jonas,
    do you have a backup of the documents in iCloud Drive?
    Then try the following:
    Open the System Preferences > iCloud panel and click the "options" for iCloud Drive.
    Then disable "Pages" on iCloud Drive.
    Close the System preferences and restart the Mac. Now enable "Pages" again.
    This should download fresh copies of your Pages documents from iCloud and may take a while.

    Hello,
    I want to drag and drop elements of a listbox to another position inside ob the listbox.

    What is the problem?
    Thanks.
