  • If I were to drag and drop files from an OSX 9 onto an external hard drive (1 TB), assuming there is still plenty of space left, will I be able to use this same external hard drive to back up my iMac (Mountain Lion)?

    If I were to drag and drop files from an OSX 9 onto an external hard drive (1 TB), assuming there is still plenty of space left, will I be able to use this same external hard drive to back up my iMac (Mountain Lion)?  And would it ask me if I want to initialize (thus erasing it) or eject the hard drive like the OSX 9 did?

    I was trying to follow this thread because I was curious about the OS 9 installation - until I realized you have another thread going about the very same subject, albeit with a different subject line.
    FWIW: it is best not to double post - things get far too confusing after a while.

  • XfinityConnect Email attachments will not drag and drop.

    DATE (yyyy-mm-dd) : 2015-04-10 15:00PM Email attachments will not drag and drop.   This feature was working for years, then suddenly I only can attach files to an Email by opening up the directory browser to.... aaarg... go get one - file - at - a - time, or zip 'em up for the one fetch, yet still... drag and drop is soooooo much better. Specifications:Using XfinityConnect 'full' version.Do not use an email client.Browser/version Windows Explorer V11Cleared browser cache.Operating system: Windows 7 Ultimate 

    I have the same complaint.  Drag and drop worked until last week, 2015-04-05!    Must now do one at a time through the ATTACH button at top of E-mail.   Why change a good process?

  • Drag and drop file from desktop screen to SD card in slot on macbook pro

    Hi i am trying to put a file from my Macbook Pros desktop and drag over to my SD card which is inserted in the side of the mac, this is a firmware update for my digital camera which needs to go onto the SD card and inserted into the camera. I can start to drag the file but as soon as it nears the open folder of my sd card the cursor changes to like a greyed out no entry sign and will not drop, the card is fat-32 if that helps. Sandisk Extreme pro 32gb class 10.

    The card reader is apparently stuck in write-locked mode. I don't generally advise do-it-yourself hardware repair, but one ASC poster managed to fix this problem. I haven't tried the fix myself and I can't offer any guidance beyond what's in that discussion. If you cause damage, don't expect your warranty to cover it. I suggest you instead make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • Why can't I add photos to my photo book? Will not drag and drop?

    Also my Iphoto 11, despite stating it is the latest version, does not look like the versions shown on the Apple website (Very basic grey sidebar).

    Post a screenshot of what you're seeing.

  • Treeview control will not drag and drop when project is built.

    I have a treeview control that I can perform drag and drop while in edit mode but once I build the executable I can't drag and drop any longer. Are there some settings that I have to change?
    I am not using an Active X Control but instead the TreeView control within LabView 8.
    A response would be greatly appreciated.

    This is a known bug, see further down in this discussion:

  • Open dialogue box in Lion is not supporting drag and drop files (UPDATE)

    This is freaking me out. Because now in Lion you can't drag and drop file from the desktop (and other folders!) to open dialogue box. It was most usefull function in Mac OS X. Why Apple kill usabillity?
    Access to the desktop is not a problem (command + d), but if the current file is located deep in the hierarchy of folders, it becomes a big problem!!!
    Dear Apple, please fix it as soon as you can.
    UPDATE: Omg, I found the problem, it works only if I drad and drop file on the bottom panel, not in all open dialogue box area:

    Interesting, this is the second time today I've seen this one come up. It does work, drag and drop works like crazy everywhere here. What does console say when it happens (or not, in your case)?

    Terribly sorry Joseph Kriz. I had absolutley no intention of annoying anyone. This was the first time I have been communicating in a discussion group, and as I wrote my comments I had no idea how my typing would reflect and where my question would be going. Hope my unintentional typing will be forgiven and causes no further agitation.The only additional comment I can make on your response is that "I do not use capital letters or CAPS LOCK while I try to enter my administrator password". Thank you for guiding me

  • HT2499 I have a new MacBook Pro with OS X Lion 10.7.4. The DVD player does not have a feature to store film clips. Why? This is useful for my work and I had it on my older computer? Why the loss of capacity?

    I have a new MacBook Pro with OS X Lion 10.7.4. The DVD player does not have a feature to store film clips. Why? This is useful for my work and I had it on my older computer? Why the loss of capacity?

    I cannot recall the DVD player ever being a place to "store" videos - it is simply an app to play videos.
    If your machine is new, then iMovie should be included as the "shrunk" version of iLife is included with Lion (iMovie, Garageband, and iPhoto). However, iMovie is not a place to store videos either - it is a video editor. You import your clips and edit them in order to then burn to a DVD or share via a social media site.
    Have you considered simply dragging the clips to your folder "Movies"? That would be a great place to just store them (please be aware that videos are usually large files, so keep your hard drive space in mind so you keep a minimum free and available for the OS to operate properly):

  • HT3775 My Macbook Air (still with Lion) will not play .avi video files

    My Macbook Air (still with Lion) will not play .avi video files (brought over from an older PC where they play with another viewer). This site implies Quicktime Player should be able to do so. Is there a codec or something else I'm supposed to download?

    I had found this through other threads, but it is what worked, even allowed my AVI files to be played in PowerPoint. Changing to 32-bit encryption did not work, BTW.

  • If i buy my macbook pro with a flash memory will i get instant on like the macbook air?

    If i buy a macbook pro with a flash memory will i get the instant on feature like the macbook air?

    Almost, if you up your memory to 8GB or even 16GB (for around $80) AND use the SSD (solid state drive)((flash memory)) it should be an "instant on" sort of setup.
    A pretty cheap way to go I must say.  Only a couple hundred extra to be such a fast computer.

  • My MacBook Pro (OS 10.7.2) will not load some sellers websites that bounce through yahoo.

    My MacBook Pro (OS 10.7.2) will not load some sellers websites that bounce through yahoo.  Other Macs on same network work fine.  I have reset Safari, tried other browsers, eliminated cookies..... to no avail.  All computers running 10.7.2.  I have reset Safari, tried other browsers, trashed out cookies.  This has me baffled.  My other macs running the same OS version work fine.  Flash is up to date and have done the current software update.  Any help please.  I have not blocked any sites and am administator for all machines.  I have tried signing in as Guest.  Nothing works. 

    After searching other users questions with related problem, I found that VirusBarrier 6 was the issue.  Reconfigured settings there and problem solved.

  • (MacBook pro 8,1)  Firmware password will not reset. Resetting PRAM fails.

    (MacBook pro 8,1)  Firmware password will not reset. Resetting PRAM fails. Resetting NVRAM in Open Firmware fails. Resetting PMU fails. Any suggestions?

    Not trying to circumvent any feature or security of the hardware. I am the owner of the hardware, I know the current  firmware password. I am simply trying to turn off my current firmware password so that I may reset the PRAM to fix a failed OS install. The instructions to turn off the current firmware password should also include having to enter in the current firmware password as done on previous models with the boot CD. This feature was made available to all models because it is a security must have and it abides by industry-standard security procedures as stated in HIPPA and other ISO standards.

  • I bought 2 new memory card to 4 grams each - replace them in your MacBook Pro 13-inch but it will not turn on - If you are installing a card for 2 and one for 4 d all works - tell me what could be the problem

    I assume that you have installed new RAM in your MBP.
    It would be helpful if you indicated the EXACT model/year MBP that you have.
    What the the RAM specifications that you are trying to install?
    Ciao.

    In the Print dialog, select the Color Matching tab and then select Vendor Matching.
