Problem selecting and dragging or moving an object with hyperlink activated

Hei!
It is impossible to select or move normally an object, for instance a photo, which contains an activated link, and that's very annoying.
First: Let's say I have that object on the top of the page and I want to put it lower, or maybe cut it and paste it somewhere else. First I need to select it, but as soon as the mouse is on top of it, the mouse over activates and opens a webpage to the designated link.
Second: before I do anything with it, I need to select the object and the only way to do it is by drawing a selection rectangle, which gives me the problem of needing to avoid surrounding objects which I don't want to select. If I don't have space enough, I have to let them get selected together with the desired object, and then unselect using the command key + mouse click.
Third: if I want to move it, i can only do it with the arrow keys, because if I use the mouse, I get back to first problem. So it's that, or disabling the hyperlink, move the object normally, and putting the hyperlink on again. None of it very practical.
If I actually want to cut the object and paste it in another page of the site, after I went through first and second problem, I can cut normally the object, got to the desired page and paste it there. If once there I still need to move the object to place it where I want, I end up in third problem anyways.
Is there any way to avoid this trouble?
Thanks

Thanks Mark, but you answered what I already included within my question. I wrote "So it's that, or disabling the hyperlink, move the object normally, and putting the hyperlink on again"
With that, to "Uncheck the "Make hyperlinks active" you need to first select the object, and you end up back to the first and second problem I wrote.

  • Selecting and Dragging multiple clips - CS6 Sniper mode

    With the introduction of ability to select Edit Points, now it's inconvenient to drag multiple selected clips or add clips to selection because in some cases - depending on timeline zoom state and/or clip duration. The edit points are altered instead of the clips, that behaviour drives me nuts. It leads to a necessity to do one of the following actions before selecting and/or dragging multiple clips with comfort:
    sniper mode - put the cursor over a place in the selection where the cursor will not indicate Edit Point trimming mode.
    to avoid loosing selection when using sniper mode - Group the clips after adding every clip to selection and/or after a dragging operation
    dynamically change zoom state so that you will not have to use sniper mode
    use copy/cut/paste - may involve a necessity to do additional pre-pasting steps
    IMHO, this behaviour should be rethinked.
    How fast it was in CS5.5 and older versions:
    Please, Premiere Pro Programming Team, especially Tim Gogolin, Steve Hoeg, Peter Lee, Gerry Miller, James Mork, Vivek Neelamegam, Axel Schildan, Jerry Scoggins, Sven Skwirblies, Tod Snook, Jesse Zibble, rethink the behaviour of selecting and dragging clips. Start giving links to beta-versions to other editors too, not only to editors like Philip Bloom.
    Selecting edit points is sometimes helpful and sometimes distracting.
    To get the best of two worlds (CS6 edit points vs. CS5.5 and older) - a switch could be added to Keyboard Shortcuts list, like the "hidden" Add Clip Marker shortcut.
    Let's name it "Application > Sequence > Select Edit Points".
    When Shift- or Shift+Alt- key is pressed and some Clip is selected, clicking on an edit point of another clip should add a clip to selection in the same way as previous versions of Premiere Pro did:
    To drag clips in legacy sniper-free mode only a switch can help. Let's name it "Application > Sequence > Select Edit Points when Multiple Clips are Selected".
    To add comfort to the editing process - selecting/dragging multiple clips - additional switches cannot be avoided. Additionally you may add an option to the Preferences > Trim:
    Allow Selection tool to choose Roll and Ripple trims without modifier key
    Allow Selection tool to select Edit Points while multiple Clips are selected

    With all due respect Kevin, nobody at Adobe has the right to change a program SO drastically.  I am also a mouse person, and am MUCH faster using the mouse, vs the keyboard. 
    When people have invested YEARS into a program like Adobe, they get used to things, how things work, the feel of a program.  I really don't see how you all can just change it on a whim.  IF you are going to do this, BOTH methods should still work.  You cannot just stop the way people are used to editing.  You can't just decide to change a program so drastically, that it doesn't feel like a program we have grown to love over many long years.  If Adobe on a whole is changing things, just because a few people in your company voice opinions like I've quoted below, it's not the way to go.  Adobe should be really putting feelers out there, and seeing how people are really using the program.  Things should be getting easier, more powerful, sure that's natural, but you can't just decide to remove things that mouse users do every day. :-(
    Upgrading a program, and changing it to this degree, are two different things in my book.  I have not yet upgraded, but it is very scary - the things I'm seeing.  For one, way way too many bugs.  The amount of bugs on so many boards being reported are just beyond comprehension. 
    And a final note, I for one, am very glad Steven is posting these videos ( I'd like to hear him go through steps though - just watching the video with no audio of what he is doing is not so great, however after watching some of his posts, he's knows what he's doing, and has a good head to think with )
    I mostly read posts, but I thought I would voice my opinion, if none of us speak up, nothing will get changed.  I'm really hoping that Adobe implements some change in the next revision .5 or whatever it will be called.  Reading posts like this one are really depressing.  Did you watch Steven's video on a simple task as moving multiple clips around on a timeline ?  Doing this with a mouse just isn't going to work for many, removing simple tasks by way of using a mouse would stop me from upgrading.
    Please address this in upcoming updates.
    Dave.

  • How do I import or move multiple selected photos to an existing album in iPhoto 9.6? In previous versions I could select and drag multiple photos into an album. Now I can only move one photo at a time. Help!

    How do I import or move multiple selected photos to an existing album in iPhoto 9.6? In previous versions I could select and drag multiple photos into an album. Now I can only move one photo at a time. Help!

    Try this general troubleshooting procedure:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • Select and Drag More Than One Photo

    I can no longer select and drag more than one photo at a time. With one photo it works fine. If I select more than one, I can't move them, so I have to add pictures to albums one at a time, which is rather tedious.
    This has only started happening recently. Possibly after updating to 10.6.8????
    Anu ideas please?
    iPhoto09, v8.1.2

    Then I would try a reinstall:
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • Trackpad - select and drag of email address in Mail

    Looks like the normal select and drag behaves differently in mac mail when you are using the email addresses on the CC and To lines ...
    In Mac Mail, When I did a reply-all to an email, it placed the person the email was sent to originally in the CC area - I wanted to drag their email address up to the To: line but couldn't figure out how to do this with the trackpad. When hovering over the email address (which was recognized and shown with their name in an oval shape) I then did a single-touch on the trackpad and held it would bring up a secondary menu rather than letting me then drag it. A single click of the trackpad didn't seem to help either
    Any ideas on how to drag a "recognized" email address from the CC to the To line in mac mail using the trackpad ?
    thanks

    Well, here's a work around ... just as a reminder, when using the mouse, you click and hold and drag to the other line you want the address
    With the trackpad, if I double tap, it converts the oval with their name to their full address. Then if you again double click and hold to (had to do this a couple times to get the whole thing selected) then you can drag with another finger the address between To: and CC: or vice versa
    Several extra clicks needed to do what the mouse did - this should be fun explaining this to the wife
    Perhaps there's an easier way someone can point out ...
    thanks

    There is no facetime icon and never was. Facetime is built into the phone.  Go to settings>general>restrictions and make sure facetime is ON.  Go to settings>facetime and turn it on there and set it up there.  Also read http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268

  • Problems moving  an object with the selection tool

    Im working on CS2 and since last week I have a problem moving objects with the selection tool: To move the object I am obligate to select the object first, and then click at the edge/stroke of the object to drag it. Before that I could move the objects just by selecting somewhere in the object and then just drag it to some other place in one step. I think I maybe changed something in the general preferences....

    Ho thanks a lot Kurt!!!!! Indeed, that was the problem!!! Finally I can work normally again.... (the joker was me...but not on purpose)
    Thanks again!

  • Problem selecting and copying items

    I use my iPad Air to work on groups in the photo sharing site, flickr.  Since installing IOS8 I am having extreme difficulty in selecting and copying awards.  Selection is done by dragging through the html, and then clicking on a blue icon "COPY"  Sometimes the code saves correctly, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it changes to code previously saved  It is driving me nuts.  Can anyone help.
    I have tried restarting the iPad, but that didn't help.

    Thanks Mark, but you answered what I already included within my question. I wrote "So it's that, or disabling the hyperlink, move the object normally, and putting the hyperlink on again"

  • Problem selecting and deselecting photos

    My mind is confused.  Last night I was carefully selecting photos from about 900 in the browse view.  I held down the command key continually and then left clicked one image I wanted after another.  Sometimes after chosing 45 images, sometimes after only 10, Aperture 3 would on its own start all over.  The count at the bottom of the view would reset to 1.  All the images I had just selected were deselected.  I did this seveal times, always being very careful to click only in the images and no where else.  The thumbnails were large, so accuracy was not an issue.  I would scroll down using the wheel, always holding down the command key.  It seemed to have a mind of its own.  i'm well familiar with the Finder interface, so it wasn't me being clunky.  I repeated this behavior a number of times...baffling behavior.  Besides Aperture 3 being beastly slow on my imac, this was extremely irritating and buggy.  Am I the only one who has experienced?  What say you Apple?  Thank you collective.

  • Problems loading and saving pdf files from sites with latest version.

    On my utilities I wish to download and save pdf files of my e-bill.
    Lately when I click on getting bill, Firefox opens new tab and stops.
    with a light message in url place saying "Type a web address".
    To get around this I must do a right click on the save bill and
    select open in new window, then it opens a new copy of Firefox,
    and two tabs, with the second one asking me to use Adobe to see
    pdf file. I tell it to open and then save it and print it from the tab
    that opens with the pdf file in it. This never happened before was
    always able to just click on link and it would open new tab with
    pdf file there.

    Thanks for the replies. I don't think I was clear enough with my question.
    What I want to be able to do is to click on a PDF file in my Firefox browser and be able to save it as an Adobe PDF file, not a Preview PDF file, in any folder on my computer, rather than just the specified default location for downloads. This way I can save, for example, phone bills in the phone bills folder and bank statements in the bank statements folder without having to save them to the desktop, "Get Info" on each, and change the "Open with:" box from Preview to Adobe Reader.
    Fortunately, thanks to Michael's post, I found an add-on from Firefox that allows me to do just that: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/636
    Thanks for your help. Now, within my Firefox browser, I can choose whether to view or download PDF files, always in Adobe rather than Preview, and when I save them I get the option to choose the location each and every time.

  • Insert a spreadsheet and word docs into a PDF with hyperlinks

    I have a spreadsheet index with hyperlinks to 455 single page word docs. I want to make a single pdf by inserting the spreadsheet followed by the word docs.
    Is there a way of having the hyperlinks recognize the inserted word docs pages inside the pdf via the original hyperlinks, or do I need to remove the hyperlinks before inserting the spreadsheet and then do bookmarks for all 455 pages? Or some other method?

    James,
    I doubt that will work. But it should be easy enough to find out. If you
    print to pdf from ID, I guarantee is will not work. If you export from
    ID, I doubt it will work, but ask in the ID forum, since the creation
    does not depend upon Acrobat.
