How do I move files into folders in Pages? I can't seem to drag and drop anymore, except via my web browser in iCloud.

Before the Yosemite update. I'm pretty sure I could just drag and drop documents in and out of folders. Now, I can't seem to do that, though the option still exists if i log into iCloud in my browser or even my iOS device. This seems odd to me. Am I missing something?

Where did you recall doing this?
Essentially all file movement is done in Finder, not Pages.

  • 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.

  • How do I move music from iTunes to my iPhone? I have tried dragging and dropping and it doesn't work.

    I have tried dragging and dropping and have also tried creating a file called iPhone.

    Maybe you should read the manual:
    iPhone User Guide (For iOS 5.0 Software)
    If you want to drag and drop, then check the Manually manage music box. Otherwise sync your content.

  • Can't seem to drag and drop music files from iTunes to AE CS4 on Mac Pro...

    ...any suggestions?

    Thanks for the quick response Sebastian.
    Yeah, I know I can find the file in finder, but I used to be able to organize all my files in the iTunes interface and easily drag them to my project in AE CS3... so much more convenient.
    I tried .aif and .wav files, all formats that AE accepts. Like I mentioned, I used to do this with AE CS3 and my Windows OS... I was just wondering if this was a Mac bug or something. Not the end of the world, but it's little things like this I waste half a day on trying to figure out!! lol.

  • I can't seem to drag and drop files between my hardrives?

    They are both formatted MS-DOS (FAT), I can only drag and drop from the hardrives to the desktop not the other way around or between the two? Thanks

    This depends on what you mean, can you provide more detail when you say, "I go between a microsoft and mac"? Please be descriptive so I can't leave anything up to assumption.

  • Cannot move files into folders on desktop

    Hi, I cannot move files into folders on desktop.  They won't go in when I grab them and drag them to a folder.

    Take these steps if the cursor changes from an arrow to a white "prohibited" symbol when you try to move an icon on the Desktop.
    Sometimes the problem may be solved just by logging out or restarting the computer. Try that first, if you haven't already done it. Otherwise, continue.
    Select the icon of your home folder (a house) in the sidebar of a Finder window and open it. The Desktop folder is one of the subfolders. Select it and open the Info window. In the General section of the window, the Kind will be either Folder  or something else, such as Anything.
    If the Kind is Folder, uncheck the box marked Locked. Close the Info window and test.
    If the Kind is not Folder, make sure the Locked box is not checked and that you have Read & Write privileges in the  Sharing & Permissions section. Then close the Info window and do as follows.
    Back up all data before continuing.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    xattr -d com.apple.FinderInfo Desktop
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You should get a new line ending in a dollar sign ($). Quit Terminal.
    Relaunch the Finder.
    If the problem is now resolved, and if you use iPhoto, continue.
    Quit iPhoto if it's running. Launch it while holding down the option key. It will prompt you to select a library. Choose the one you want to use (not the Desktop folder.)

  • How do I create a text style in CC libraries? Every time I drag and drop text into library form Photoshop or illustrator it turns it into a graphic.

    How do I create a text style in CC libraries? Every time I drag and drop text into library form Photoshop or illustrator it turns it into a graphic.
    If I select the text layer and click the text style button in the library it just creates a new text style for Myriad Pro 12pt - I'm not using that anywhere in my document.
    Can anyone help? Seems like a bug to me as I'm trying what the video tutorials are saying.
    Thanks

    I realize AI is an illustration program.
    Do you realize it is an object-based vector-based program? Do you know the difference between raster-based and vector-based content?
    My question seems to be all over the forum but no one has been able to answer other than exporting to these file formats, which make text look awful and of no use....
    And yet everyone else in the world makes proper web images every day using a plethora of programs, including these...go figure.
    Am I missing something?
    Yep. Pretty much.
    Hello Adobe! People use transparency on website logos.
    Hello, cocteau! What you're calling "transparency" is inherent to object-based vector artwork. But web browsers don't support object-based vector artwork, except via file formats like Flash and SVG, or by viewing as a PDF in a plug-in version of Reader. Raster imaging in general only supports "transparency" by either indexing a specific color (i.e.; "don't display this color", as in GIF) or including an alpha channel (i.e.; "blend all the pixels with existing pixels, based on values from this extra channel", as in PNG). It's all in the raster file format you use, cocteau; it has little-to-nothing to do specifically with Adobe software. Such things are among the most basic matters understood by someone doing web design.
    When I export an eps from .ai file, and open the eps in photoshop,...I save as a gif for the web, it goes back to the original problem...creates jagged text. I"m giving up on this garbage...Thanks a lot adobe! Lower the price of this software if this is all that can be done.
    Once it leaves Photoshop (or Illustrator, or whatever) as a non-proprietary raster image format, it's all about what the format can do re "transparency". You can do this stuff with most any graphics program. You should read about basic web design and the differences between raster and vector content, rather than rant.

  • How do I move photos into folders in Windows 8.1

    I loaded a number of photos off my camera and am now struggling to move them into different folders. I am unable to drag and drop, or copy and paste them into the new folders I have created and am getting more and more fedup!
    I am using an HP15-N090SA laptop set up with windows 8.1

    Hi dpa2013,
    Thank you for your reply.
    Here is a link to Copy and Paste Feature Not Working in Windows 8, from the Microsoft community. that has helped other people. Hopefully it will resolve it for you  also. If you are still experiencing this issue, I would suggest doing a clean install of Windows.  When I viewed the specifications for your system, I see it shipped with Windows 7. If you do a system recovery, it will take you back to the original OS. Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7) . You have an option during the recovery process to backup all your data, therefore you would not loose anything. Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows 7).  Here are the steps to follow before upgrading to Windows 8.1.  Upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8.   Please let me know the outcome.

  • After sorting photos into albums, the albums disappeared on me. I dragged and dropped the photos and went back to check that they were in place before exiting the program. When I went back, the folder was there but no albums. Help!

    Working on an IMac - with IPhoto v.9.6 
    This is my first experience with IPhoto... trying to move files from a PC over to a Mac.
    I don't have a ton of photos but I created about 6 albums - standard albums - and dragged and dropped individual photos into each of the albums. I named each of the albums as well so I would know what was in each. After i was finished, I created a folder called 2014 and moved each of the albums into that folder. Before moving ANY of the albums, I opened each of them up to make sure that all the photos I wanted in each were indeed there - and since there were some errors on my part, I deleted any duplicates first. SO, I KNOW the photos were actually in each of the albums BEFORE i moved them into the 2014 folder.
    My intention was to then delete the photo files in my document file but once I got there I thought I would go back and double check the IPhoto file just to make sure... and the pictures were NOT in the albums where I had placed them... is there a need to save this before you move on and if so, to where and how? I was under the impression that once files were moved to albums, they remain there.
    The photos are still in the photo library but unsorted now again... I cannot even open the 2014 folder at this point.
    Thanks for any help!!

    Was back on IPhoto this morning. The folder did not open at all so I deleted it. Beside Albums, nothing showed at all. It was like I had done no work at all except to import my photo folder. Nothing was in my trash bin either.
    I started again and created one album at a time. I dragged and dropped photos into the album and exited out of IPhoto, opened up other programs and then returned to IPhoto to see if the album was still there and it was this time. I created a second album and did the same thing. This time, for some reason, the albums seem to be staying in place. I am not doing anything differently than last time. After creating three albums, I created a folder called 2014 and dragged and dropped the three albums into the folder and exited IPhoto. They were still there when I returned - YEAH! It seems to be working - for now! I am keeping my fingers crossed that my photos are not going to disappear but I am not going to delete my photo folder from my files just in case!
    Thanks for the suggestions but this may just have been a funny glitch... not sure what happened. I didn't change anything or do anything differently this time except that I am doing it one album at a time and exiting the program between creating each of them and coming back to check... very strange.

  • I no longer have iTunes library.xml on my PC but I have all of my songs.  How do I download them to my iPhone - it won't allow me to drag and drop though my PC recognizes the device.

    My PC has all of my iTunes and it recognizes my iPhone 4 device but I cannot drag and drop the songs.  How do I copy the songs to my new iPhone without having to re-purchase everything?  Unfortunately, It appears I no longer have iTunes Music Library.xml on my PC.

    My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine.  We always manually manage our music (no auto sync).  iTunes is up to date on the PCs.  My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines.  He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4.  I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s.  How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
    Thanks

  • Can't move files into folders more than one time.

    I'm having a strange problem.  If I try and drag a file into a folder then it will allow me to do that, but only once.  If I try to drag another file into the same folder then it is locked.  I can drag it into a different folder, but the same thing happens, I can move a file into the new folder but not a 2nd file, but it is locked.  I have to restart to "unlock" these folders, but the same things happens over and over again.  I can move a single file into a folder, but after that it locks up and I have to restart.
    Any ideas why this is happening?  It only happens in bridge, I'm able to move files freely in Finder.
    Thanks!

    I can't find a permission setting that would only allow a single file to be moved to a folder
    Don't know if you already tried but use a check and repair permissions on your Mac using either Apple Disk Utility (applications / utilities) or a third party like Cocktail.
    If still the same happens restart bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences.
    When the problem still exist please provide more details about OS and Bridge versions as well as computer specs.

  • Move files into folders based on EXIF Creation Date

    Hi all,
    Being a novice with Applescript I have read what I can find on this forum, but are not able to find exactly what I'm looking for. I think that the posting "Using AppleScript to create folders and place files in them" is the closest I get to what I want but I want to create the folders based on EXIF creation date.
    Let me explain.
    I have a folder that contains thousands of jpg, mp4, mov and avi files; all created by different cameras. I want to bring some order to this and place files in folders based on year, month and date that the file was created (the photo taken or the video captured). This date is stored in the EXIF creation date.
         Take all files in folder A
          foreach file find the EXIF creation date
          move each file into directory tree (at same location is ok) where toplevel is YEAR, next directory level is named accoring to EXIF creation date as MMDDYY
          if no EXIF creation date can be found, fallback to creation date (file property?)
          if no good date is found, leave file alone in folder A for manual sorting; do not use modification date as this may have been altered
         this would create a structure as
         2002
                011602
                        File 1 taken Jan 16 2002
                        File 2 taken Jan 16 2002
                082002
                        File 1 taken Aug 20 2002
                        File 2 taken Aug 20 2002
          2003
                 etc 
         2004
             |   etc
         2014
                 010114
                        File 1 taken Jan 1 2014
    etc etc

    Well, technically that's correct, Frank, but the same could be said of much of AppleScript - the core functionality is limited, but there's a lot you can do.
    For example, it's actually trivial to use Image Events get any given EXIF tag of an image:
    set theFile to (choose file)
    tell application "Image Events"
              set f to open theFile
              set cD to value of metadata tag "CreationDate" of f
      close f
    end tell
    Now, cD will have the value of the CreationDate tag (assuming it exists, of course - you'll need to wrap this in a try/end try statement). Once you have that it shouldn't be too hard to extract the date components, work out the target directory name and move the file.
