Unable to drag and drop out of aperture

Hi,
As of a few days ago i've had a slight problem with my aperture libary.
I can no longer drag and drop images out of aperture onto the desktop or other apps etc.
I have not changed anything it was working fine until just recently - I haven't modified or done anything to change the behaviour.
Aperture settings has previews enabled.
I have attempted to regenerate previews by selecting images and clicking regenerate
I have rebuilt permissions
I have rebuilt the entire library
I have re-installed aperture
I have manually deleted previews and thumbnails from within the aperture library to force a rebuilt.
Nothing works.
I cannot drag out files
with the exeption I can drag and drop files which have had edits done to it - so the original master has been edited and it's created a modified version.
As I said - previews are enabled and I can also right click and export version or master without issues for any files.
I have latest versions of aperture 3.

Dan,
can you please clarify a few points?
Aperture settings has previews enabled.
Have you enabled "New projects automatically share Previews"?
How is "Share Preview with iLife set"?
I have manually deleted previews and thumbnails from within the aperture library to force a rebuilt.
Has the rebuild worked? Have you checked in the "Masters" folder, if the previews actually exist for the images, that will not be dragged?
Have you checked each project in question, of the Previews for that project are enabled?
Select each of the the projects in question and ctrl-click (right-click) the gear-icon in the upper right corner of the Library inspector. Check the setting for "Maintain previews for project".
If the previews are disabled in that menu, you cannot drag previews from the library.
Regards
Léonie

Unable to Drag and Drop Yahoo emails to folders (Used to work. Still works fine on IE)

Unable to Drag and Drop Yahoo emails to Yahoo Email folders using Firefox. I am sure this worked until recently.
I am still able to Drag and Drop in the same yahoo sign on using Internet Explorer.

I've found it works for some. I think it will only work if it can figure out which one to put it in. If it ins't capable or figuring that out, it won't work. I imagine if you drag several, and if even one can't be sorted, it will reject them all.

UNABLE TO DRAG AND DROP MESSAGES TO MAIL FOLDER

UNABLE TO DRAG AND DROP MESSAGES TO MY MAIL FOLDER

Hi,
Typing in all capitals is regarded as shouting.
As far as I can tell your post is filtered to the Messages app and not the Mail tagging.
You would have to supply a lot more detail as to what you are calling "your Mail Folder"
To help this is part of my Side bar list
My "On My Mac" folder probably has 20 folders plus some of those have sub folders.
Out of sight are two sets of IMAP Folders (held on the Servers)
As it is the Mail App I also may not know the answer. (I was filtering for Messages (App))

Make sure your windows userid has full control and ownership over the entire music folder. Check the box to apply this to subcontainers (aka subfolders)

Unable to drag and drop files or folders

Hi
I'm unable to drag and drop files or folders. I can't drag from a folder to desktop, I can't drag from finder. I can't move files around. I can't drag from itunes into ipod.
I've run Onyx and disk permission repair, cleaned all caches etc, all to no avail.
Get info tells me I have read and write permissions.
Can someone please help me.
Thanks

I'm having the same problem, the terminal command to make that testfile worked, guess its a good sign but i wouldn't know, I also have a couple of extra problems:
It started with VisualHub saying "Critical componats of Mac OS X are missing or damaged on your system, Without them, VisualHub is unable to continue. The affected componats is/are: - /tmp Temporary Directory. Try Repairing Permissions using Disk Utility"
So i did that using OnyX, rebooted, still didn't work, so i remember hearing about how reinstalling .3 of 10.5.3 can help replace files that are lost, so i did that and thats where it went wrong, it rebooted and it seemed to go good, but then i noticed a big ? where Camino is meant to be on my Dock and i looked in my stack and it was gone, Safari would crash on the 5th letter i typed anywhere on the browser, (Safari and Webkit Nightly) At least Firefox works so i can post this, Spotlight is gone from the menu bar, i can't drag anything from the dock and i can't drag safari from the App stack or the dock crashes.
The thing that worries me is why was Camino deleted? and Safari crashing?
If anyone has a solution to this you would be a HUGE help, i really don't want to reformat my mac because i don't have anywhere to backup my files, i don't have the money for a decent sized HDD to backup into.
Thanks all who help!!!

Unable to drag and drop itunes tracks intp idvd project

hello
After selecting media I am unable to drag and drop most of my itunes tracks into my dvd projects ,this is true for both imported cd's and purchased music
Only a few tracks will show with the + sign
any thoughts
Thanks
Paul T

Give this basic remedy a try. Quit iDVD and delete your iDVD preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.idvd.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iDVD; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
If that doesn't work, do a verify and repair of permissions using Disk Utility.
I hope this helps.

Unable to drag and drop album art

Hi Guys,
I'm unable to drag and drop album artwork since upgrading to windows 7, when hovering over the "drag album art here" box it just displays a no entry cursor.
I've tried dragging and dropping to the desktop first but this doesn't work either.
UAC is currently disabled, my windows user is a computer administrator and has full control privileges on the Music folder.
It's not on all my albums, just certain ones.
I'm using iTunes 9.0.2.25

Unable to drag and drop

Hi,
I am unable to drag and drop the files (even .psd) into CS6 beta from my folder. Any solution for that? Please let me know. My OS is windows 7 U 64 bit.
Thanks,
Ramnath.

This helped me ...
Go to Start > Run > then type: regedit (then press enter).
The windows registry editor will now open.
You now need to follow this route through the registry editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies > System
Then Find this Key EnableLUA, Double Click on it and change the Value data from 1 to 0.
After pressing OK you’ll notice in the task bar a message pops up saying UAC is now disabled and a restart is required.
After the restart everything will run as it did on Windows 7, Ensure you’ve untagged “Run as Administrator” on your app shortcuts.

I am unable to drag and drop music onto my nano 6th gen!

I am unable to drag and drop music onto my nano 6th gen that I downloaded into iTunes from 2 CDs that I purchased. Older songs will still copy! Oddly, I CAN drag and drop them onto my old video iPod!

Yes! It is set up for manual management because I have way more music than will fit on my nano so I am only putting my favorites on it! It's just odd that the music on the 2 new CDs I downloaded into iTunes will not copy over! When I drag my songs to the playlist I made on my nano it acts like it is copying because I get the number of songs icon and the + sign indicating that it is copying but then the playlist is empty. The nano will say for a couple seconds that it is synchronizing but in the end nothing has transferred! If I take an older song and drag it into the playlist it does copy! Seem like it has to do with the new CDs being compatible with nano? I would really appreciate any advice! Thanks!

I am unable to drag and drop image files in a JAVA supposrted site. I have all the lastest versions of softwarte here - everything is up to date.

I am no longer able to drag and drop image files int this JAVA supported site. It had always worked flawlessly in the past.
I would open the site, go to Send Files, allow access, fill out the fields and then drag and drop my image files. Now I can only use the ADD (+) button to do so.
I have the latest versions of OS-X Lion and JAVA installed on my computer

This is the Tech Sheet on the subject:
Photoshop Help | Managing paths
It contains this item under Manage Paths:
When you use a pen or shape tool to create a work path, the new path appears as the work path in the Paths panel. The work path is temporary; you must save it to avoid losing its contents.
Ok, the red you referred to is a Stoke you added. Then QuickMask is not involved.

Unable to drag and drop mp4 movies into itunes but the file will import and play using home sharing

Strange problem with my brothers MacBook.
The movie files were converted to mp4 format ready to be played on an iphone and I imported them into my iTunes on an iMac with no problems.
Files were also saved onto a flash drive which I passed on to my brother.
My brother was unable to import files by drag and drop and also by "add to library", we even copied and pasted files from the flash drive to the desktop but that also didn't work.
Using "home sharing the movies imported and played with no problems.
Any ideas why this is happening?

This appears to be a long-standing bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634720
and the accepted workaround is stated in comment 11.
Oddly, it's possible to do the reverse, i.e. drag multiple eml files from Explorer to a TB folder.

Unable to drag and drop images with manual sort in CS2 bridge

I've had CS2 for several years now but for some reason, just never really needed to do a manual sort. Now that I DO need to, it doesn't seem to be working. I have the view set for manual and no matter what kind of working space I use, the program does not allow me to drag and drop the thumbnails into different positions. All I get is that circle with a diagonal line through it, showing me that what I'm trying isn't going to work.
Any ideas?

DUUUUUUUDE! IT'S WORKING NOW!!!!
When you originally asked, "What happens if you click on an image and move it to another folder?", I didn't really understand what you were talking about because I almost never have my workspace set up in a way that the folders are showing. I always hide them. So I didn't really understand what you were saying. Just a few minutes ago, I realized that that is what you were asking so I opened up the folder area and tried dragging thumbs into different folders and saw that it does work.
So then, because of you mentioning that blue line and me know that I did see the blue line on occasion. I went back over into the thumbnails to find out if I always got the blue line or if it was a hit or miss thing. I couldn't believe my eyes when all of the sudden I saw that I no longer was getting that circle with the line through it, and low and behold, the thumbnail dropped right into position like it is supposed to!!!!
The thing is, I don't know what I've learned from this. I thought, "well, what is different?" The only thing that I can think of is that I now have the folders showing in my workspace so I wondered if that was the secret but I just now hid the folders again like I usually do and the drag and drop into position is STILL WORKING!!!
All I can figure is that somehow, dragging and dropping a thumbnail into a folder like that for the first time, triggered something so that I can now drag and drop among the thumbnail positions? Not sure. All I know is that for some reason, IT'S WORKING NOW!
Now, for the second important part, I wonder if I drag and drop everything into the order that I want and then select all of the files and drag them into a new folder, will they stay in that order? I need to go experiment with that.
If you hadn't kept at it and in turn had me keep trying stuff, it would have never happened because I had pretty much given up.
Thanks Curt!
You da man!!!

Unable to drag and drop videos or music from PC folder to ITunes. Any ideas why?

Why can I not drag and drop videos or music from PC folder to ITunes?

I can only guess since you provide no details, but my guess is that these are either not industry-standard MPEG-4 videos but rather one of the offshoots that use the same file extension, or they're a resolution, frame rate or aspect ratio that iTunes can't accept. Can the videos and tracks be played in QuickTime Player? If so, open the Movie Inspector, find the Format information, and post that here along with your versions of Windows and iTunes. That might help people figure out what might be going wrong.
Regards.

Unable to drag and drop photos to desktop.

Hello,
I usually am able to drag and drop my photos from the library to my desktop, but it is displaying the circle with the slash through it for permissions. I did rebuild my permissions but have noticed that I am also unable to take screenshots due to a "permission" issue. "You do not have permission to save files where screenshots are saved." window appears. Please let me know what I can do to resolve this problem. I just bought my new MacBook Pro after having the first generation MBP from 2006. I love these computers....but this one seems to be giving me a few issues.
Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Launch Disk Utility and repair Disk Permissions. See if that will help the screenshot issue. By default theyt are saved to the Desktop.
Next launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed to rebuild the library. Select the option to repair the library's file permissions.
