Can't drag and drop

Expand Post »
I cant seem to Drag & drop ANY files! None of them are locked, I am the registered and only user and I've tried disk repair!

Has anyone else had this problem, or got any idea what to try?

Cheers

Re: Can't drag and drop

Hi,

I'm having exactly the same issue OS X 10.2, G4 Desktop. The only thing I've installed lately is Itunes 6. I've repaired my permissions (using the tool and by restarting in OS 9 and removing my preferences folder) nothing working! If anyone has a solution to this please say!

Thanks

James

Re: Can't drag and drop

And if you log in as another user (create one if you need to) as a test, does it work there?

Re: Can't drag and drop

Then unfortunately, you've got a real problem on your hands.

My first suggestion, if you're using Norton Systemworks or any other piece of crap brought to you by the fine folks are Symantec, disable and uninstall it as your first order of business. Are you using anything like that?

Re: Can't drag and drop

Yeah - Norton internet security. Do I have to completly un-install it to test or will just disabling do the trick?

It's a joke piece of software. Get rid of it for your own piece of mind and this problem should go away.

Re: Can't drag and drop

Hi,

I've completly uninstalled the Internet security software and the problem is still there. I've tried creating a new user again (problem remains). Any other ideas?

Cheers
