Shift-Drag and Option Drag not working

I am using InDesign CC and my Shift-Drag to constrain in a direction has stopped working. Also my Option-Drag to duplicate has stopped working. Both work fine in Illustrator. Any help is appreciated....

It happens to me also, when I have external devices connected, like a beamer, a second screen, etc. Happens not with every device, but with some of them. Very bad situation if you make presentations or consulting and no shortcut works from one moment to the next.
I have not discovered exactly what this problem is causing, otherwise I would have filed a bug repaort against it to Adobe.

    Pages: I want to reorganize items in folders, drag and drop is not working. So how can I do this?

    This is the very top of the documents view in the Pages app. If you don't see this, swipe down in this window to reveal the Date and Name tabs like you see here. If you tap on - Name - that arranges all of the documents in alphabetical order in this view and it also arranges documents in the respective folders alphabetically. If you tap on - Date - that will arrange all documents by the date that they were created or last edited. You want to make sure that you keep Name as the default at the top.
    Trust me, this does work. If you name the chapters alphabetically .... Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, or if you simply name them A, B, C, D, etc. they will be arranged in that order using the Name button at the top, which uses alphabetical order to arrange the documents.

  • Drag and drop functionality not working. IE shows ActiveX error

    Hi all,
    we recently installed new server, but on the new server the drag and drop functionality in web dynpro application is not working.
    when we launch the standard test application wdr_test_drag_and_drop, the Internet explorer is showing a popup: An ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe to interact with other parts of the page. Do you want to allow this interaction? Yes/No
    if we allow by clicking Yes or No, the drag/drop functionality is not working.
    first I checked if the issue is with my IE version, but it is not working in any of the IE in any computer.
    when I checked the same application from different ecc server on my IE, the different server application is working.
    in my new server, do we need to do anything more to make the drag/drop working.
    thanks,
    Madhu_1980.

    Hi Madhu,
    GO through this link,  it might help
    Step 1: Go to the Tools menu, and select Internet Options
    There are times when the activex plugins are disabled in our browser settings, just enable them and give it a try.

  • Drag and drop photos not working

    With Aperture 3.5 you can no longer Drag a photo to another app, such as iMessage and drop the photo into that app.
    The target Apps do not see the Drag operation and therefore ignore it (don't show the + when ready to accept the dropped photo).
    Drage and Drop continues to work on earlier Aperture releases even if you update to Mavericks.

    And it works with iMessages.
    After enabling the previews in Aperture's preferences you need to generate them. The previews settings will only automatically create previews for new photos. To generate them for older images, use the command "Photos > Update Preview".
    How large are the images, that you try to drag? For very small images Aperture will not create previews at all, if the images have not been adjusted.

  • Illustrator extension - Drag and drop is not working on mac

    During testing my extension on Mac,I noticed that drag and drop doesn't work as expected. Therefore I have created a new simple extension with two lists.
    <s:List id="lst1" label="name" dragEnabled="true">
         <tree>
              <name>a</name>
              <name>b</name>
              <name>c</name>
         </tree>
    </s:List>
    <s:List id="lst2" dropEnabled="true" dragMoveEnabled="true"> </s:List>
    This will allow lst1 items to be dragged and drop in lst2.
    This sample works fine on Windows and on Mac as AIR app  but not working as extension on Illustrator( Not able to drag and drop between list on mac).
    Any help or workaround would be appreciated.

    Thanks for quick reply and help. I am able to drag multiple files but this is giving problem in case of filename with spaces like "abc def.png". Can you please put some thoughts on this.

  • Drag and drop does not work in Exported release build

    I am using the built in DragManager class to handle some drag and drop functionality in an application.  When running from flex builder, It runs exactly as expected, but when I export the project to a release build, Dragging only works in the vertical direction.  How is this possible?  What might be causing such strange behavior.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Sorry, I will try to be more clear.  I am using drag and drop simply to move items around on a Canvas.  This works perfectly when running from flex builder, but when i export a release build it starts behaving strangely.
    I can drag items up or down on the canvas no problem, but as soon as I try to drag items left or right, there is no response.  On a windows machine, it gives me the black circle with a slash through it icon, implying that the drag is not accepted.  On Mac, there is no icon, it simply will not drag. 
    Hope that clarifies it, I could really use some help figuring this issue out.
    Update:
    I can confirm that the call to DragManager.acceptDragDrop is being reached in both cases, but the DragEvent.DRAG_DROP event is not being handled in the release build, (it is reached when run from flex builder)

  • Drag and drop does not work in firefox 3

    Does anybody has the same issue with firefox when you add a layout to the oracle composer and you want to drag and drop some components that it just does not work...
    When i hoover over the title bar of a component i see the cross icon but the drag & drop does not work. WHen i do the same in IE8 or google chrome, it does work.
    I have this issue for both oracle composer stuff as for sites i build in webcenter spaces.
    We are working with the latest version of webcenter

    WebCenter is compatible with:
    * Firefox 2 & 3
    * Internet Exploirer 7 and 8
    * Safari 3.0
    It might be caused by a firefox extension in your browser.

  • Safari for Mac, webpage with Java applet, drag and drop area not working.

    At my company, we have a web page that our users access to submit media files, (QuickTime, Audio, images...), for transcoding for delivery.  The web page consists of a java applet, with an area that our users drag and drop media file into.
    After updating to Safari 5.1.2, the applet will not work anymore. Instead, the browser will "open" the quicktime and play it, instead of allowing the Java Applet to do it's job.
    CAN I TURN THIS FUNCTIONALITY OFF??
    I read that Safari 5.1.2, (when it was initially released), broke something with the THEN current version of Java, and everyone was awaiting the latest update (build 1.6.0_29) to fix it. Unfortunately, this update did not fix my issue with the functionality of dragging and dropping media files into the web page.
    It seems to me, as if, there is an over-arching functionality setting (or something) that needs to be either turned off, or in some other way DE-prioritized.
    Anyone have any ideas?

  • Drag and drop tabs not working

    Dragging and dropping tabs no longer works. I cannot drag a tab out to a new window or reorder the tabs. This used to work and is a very nice feature. Reordering bookmarks by dragging them around also appears to be broken.
    Disabling plugins or resetting Firefox did not help.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Drag and Drop feature not working

    I'm using a Mac Book Pro running OS X version 10.7.5 and I find that fairly often, when I click and drag something (anything) that the mouse will not drop or release the item, and the only way I can fix it is to force quit the program.  I have been into the system preferences and tried to adjust those features to no avail.  This has been accuring for almost a year now.  I find that it does this most often after a reboot.  For now, if I reboot, I cannot drag and drop anything for about an hour, then after that, the drag and drop feature seems to work just fine.  Help!
    Side info:  I am also using BootCamp with Windows 7, if that helps
    Thanks, looking forward to some good advise!

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Drag-and-Drop is not working

    Here's the deal: I have a brand new iPod classic (160gb) that I'm using with my Mac Mini. I have a huge music library, so I'm trying to simply drag and drop the music from the library to the iPod, however it is simply not letting me do it.
    Now to be clear: Yes, I have my iPod set (or checked) to manually manage my music, movies, etc. so that it won't sync every single time I hook in my iPod. But for some reason, it will not allow me to drag and drop even one song; it just shows me the music file icon with the number of tracks I want to add along with it, but when I drag it over the iPod, nothing happens.
    I've already uninstalled & re-installed iTunes and nothing so far has worked. Has anybody else experienced this?

    Have you gotten this to work yet? My boyfriend got a brand new MacBook Pro and a new iPod Classic and he's having this exact same problem. We can't find a fix! Have you had any luck?
