My Mouse won't drag

If I am using the paintbrush etc, it will just click a spot and stop. I can not select anything past a mouse click, and I can not erase anything but one click, I can not drag the mouse. Help Please

What program are you using - Premiere Elements or Photoshop Elements and what version on what computer operating system?
You mention of paintbrush suggests to me that you are working in some version of Photoshop Elements.
If that is correct, then you have posted in the wrong forum. You want the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum (photo editing) and not the
Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing). Some how your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum.
If Adobe Photoshop Elements, please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator to see your
thread here and move it from here to there.
Photoshop Elements
Please clarify.
Thank you.

  • No speaker Sound, Mouse won't drag cards in Solitaire, Windows media Player error

    My computer is an HP Pavilion dv6 running Windows 7.  Suddenly, the following problems came up:
    1.  No sound from the internal speakers.  Only sound from headphone jack
    2.  Mouse Cursor won't drag cards in Solitaire game.  Mouse works OK otherwise
    3.  Windows Media Player shows error: "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file."

    Have you tryed to do a Windows Restore to a point in time before you were having this issue?

  • My iTunes songs won't drag when using wacom tablet mouse.  When is Apple going to fix this?

    My iTunes songs won't drag when using wacom tablet mouse.  When is Apple going to fix this?  Wacom says apple was made aware of this as long ago as July 2011.

    no one in here knows when Apple is going to fix it.  We are just users like you and have no more access to information than anyone else, including you.

  • Disk icon won't drag when trying to restore in disk utility

    Hello
    Not sure what I'm doing wrong but when trying to back up my (original) Macbook Pro onto an external hard drive (to create a bootable backup) the MBP disk icon won't drag into the Source of Disk Utility Restore....
    Have booted from the MBP disk etc. Am running Tiger w/latest software update. Tried using a mouse rather than the touchpad, but no luck either...
    Any suggestions?
    Many thanks.

    Disk Utility is not very prolix when it comes to error handling. Try this:
    Start "Utilities -> Terminal App"
    in terminal start:
    "/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app/Contents/MacOS/Disk Utility"
    the normal disk utility comes up. Try what you want to do - and check for error messages on the command line. maybe you can correct the problem.
    -------------- IF THAT FAILS AND YOU WANT TO RESTORE IT BY HAND:
    use the disk utility to
    1. mount your target drive
    - double click on the target drive - make sure it's mounted
    2. get information about target drive
    - click the PARTITION (not disk) you want to restore
    - click INFO. Note the Disk Identifier e.g. disk0s2
    3. mount your source image
    - go to 'restore' of some drive. select image
    - search for the image to restore
    - image comes up in list on the left. double click it
    close the disk utility.
    open Terminal.
    check with 'ls /Volumes/' which Volumes are mounted. Check which Volume is your SOURCE.
    you can use 'asr' to restore your drive e.G.:
    asr restore --source "/Volumes/Mac HD" --target /dev/disk0s2 --erase
    PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU GIVE THE CORRECT SOURCE AND ESPECIALLY TARGET!
    asr is the restore tool used by disk utility. Be sure to have a second backup of all your data. If you use it in the wrong way, you can delete all data (including the backup attached via USB).

  • Wireless magic mouse won't scroll -

    I just purchased the wireless magic mouse. It won't scroll. I have gone to system preferences and don't see where I can set this up. I can move pages by clicking and dragging but that isn't why I purchased this mouse. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place OR should not have disconnected my ubs mouse before going through a process?? Or maybe it isn't compatible with my tiger system?? Anybody know?
    Thanks!

    Okay - I have figured this out. The Magic Mouse - DOES NOT WORK - with tiger. Oh, it works but just as an ordinary mouse - click and drag.

  • My mouse will not drag sometimes

    I use OSX 10.8.5 and now the mouse is not behaving.  Sometimes it won't drag and often when I select something, it won't hold it for an action but just releases it.  I am assuming this is the mouse but could it be the computer?

    If it a corded  mouse, try strighting the cord out, they get tangled and effect
    If is a Blu-tooth or wireless mouse check the batteries

  • I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but can't it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    You cannot drag the effects themselves to the timeline.  You add them to a clip in the Viewer, just as you have done. 
    If the clip was already in the timeline when you  opened it in the Viewer (by double-clicking it in the timeline to open it in the Viewer) and then added the reverb effect, there is nothing further to do, you have added the effect to the clip.  You don't drag it back to the timeline.
    You only have to drag the clip to the timeline if the clip was not already in the timeline (for example, if you opened the clip from the FCE Browser; or set different In and Out points in a master clip to use a different portion of the master clip in a different location in your timeline).
    Depending on the effect you add, you may have to render the timeline after adding the effect.  But I don't think reverb requires immediate rendering.  One other note, you said you were working with an audio clip ... audio clips need to be AIFF (not MP3 or something else) and preferably 16-bit stereo.

  • Imac won't drag and drop

    I have a new iMac w/Mountain Lion and it won't drag and drop. I can't move folders or move files into folders. Any ideas?

    Please restart the computer and re-try. Also, going forward please provide a more descriptive paragraph of exactly what steps you have taken.
    With ANY new Mac you have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support. I'd STRONGLY recommend you use it and if you have not already bought AppleCare I'd recommend getting it.
    Finally please update your profile to show which iMac you have and which version of OS X is installed. This make helping MUCH MUCH easier for the volunteers that man this forum.  You can find instructions for updating your profile at

  • Homesharing won't drag and drop songs onto a shared library

    Homesharing won't drag and drop songs onto a shared library. Both computers are authorized and both have "homesharing" turned on. Any help?

    Rather than dragging and dropping, try this.
    In the computer you're moving music to, select the home shared library you're moving music from, as per the following screenshot:
    Select the songs you want to transfer. Now click the "Import" button down in the the bottom-right-hand corner of the screen, as per the following screenshot:

  • Mighty Mouse won't scroll

    None of the answers to this topic solved my problem. All of a sudden my bluetooth mighty mouse won't scroll. I can set it to 360 degrees and it will scroll horizontally. But it won't scroll horizontally or vertically if I set it to both. Help!

    Have you tried resetting bluetooth?
    I have been having the same problem since nearly as long as I've had my mighty mouse, and cleaning it never solved the problem.
    I just called apple and got them to send me out a new one, but before they did they told me to do this.
    Turn off your Mac, removed the power and battery and hold down the power button for 5 seconds. Then turn it back on, but while you turn it back on hold down the altcmnd+RP buttons together. You will hear it ching two times as it turns on, let go after the second ching. This apparently resets the bluetooth and it fixed my mouse, it now works perfectly.
    I'd recommend taking the advise of an apple technical advisor first before trying this, I have a MacBook from last year and that's what i did.

  • Mighty Mouse won't scroll in Stickies application

    Can anyone tell me if there's a way to get a Mighty Mouse to scroll text inside a Stickie note? My Logitech wireless mouse does it, but when the batteries die I have to use my (wired) Mighty Mouse and it seems to scroll in all applications EXCEPT Stickies (G5 Quad). Even on my wife's G4 PowerBook, her wireless M.Mouse won't scroll in a Stickie note. It seems odd that any 3rd party mice will but the M.Mouse won't. Am I missing something?

    Doesn't look like you're missing anything at all, strange indeed though!

  • Loaded iTunes 9, now mouse won't work

    Interesting. I updated iTunes 9 via the "Check for updates" menu option. Installation was clean and green - no errors, no freezing or hanging, clean reboot.
    Upon restart, the mouse won't work. Standard ps/2 for a Dell PC, no problems before now, etc. Rebooted again. Mouse doesn't work.
    What gives? Anyone have this problem? Sounds like a resource conflict, but those are so rare in recent years I find that possibility surprising.

    When the system was restarted, my iPod was plugged in. Normally, this isn't a big deal, but as a troubleshooting step, I unplugged the 'pod, rebooted and got mouse functionality back.
    Just to test it, I then plugged the 'pod back in, and everything still worked. The next test would be to plug the 'pod back in and reboot just to see if I lose the mouse again, but I'm happy enough to move on.
