• Cannot drag and drop files from library

  I just installed Muse and began to watch the tutorial until I came across a problem: I can't drag and drop files as does the Lady in the video and I don't know how to solve the problem, I don't want to renounce the Muse of learning if no solution will be found :/ I hope that someone will help!

  SOLVED

  Muse has defiantly a bug, if you select an object, first of all, in the content of your region and your willingness to see the cc library allow to add items.

  

  This however, only the element which is already included in your project Muse.

  I have solved this problem by using the cc Adobes library in another application, Illustrator and Photoshop.

  All of my graphics and fonts are now synced to my library of cc and when I return in Muse, fixed!

  all my items are there to use the library of cc AI or Psd.

  

• Windows XP SP3: Unable to start, System Restore cannot drag and drop ALL the files/folders on the desktop and applications, many unable to start, services cannot search, cannot copy or transfer the any files folders...

  After a recent power outage, my system has restarted with a weird and very common Windows problems range. The system boots fine, all my personal files/folders/apps are intact, have suddenly stopped almost all functions of applications, but many crucial functions of the Windows kernel. Everything seems to point to several Windows Services are unable to start (administrative tools on the start menu). I am running Win XP SP3 and that he was going to upgrade to Windows 7, but I wanted to backup everything in advance. As I have 29 000 hours on my C: drive and a lot of time invested in my system, files, and applications, I am extremely reluctant to risk losing my files and applications by performing any type of reinstalling Windows. Strangely, begin to almost all my apps and all my files are accessible for the most part, but I've lost the ability to drag and drop files, folders or items in a list within the applications COMPLETELY. I can't copy or paste anything, can't move the desktop icons (although I can create new files and folders). So at the moment I can't save anything or even a single file transfer to a hard drive on another storage medium. Immediate reaction: try safe mode and try the system restore safe mode has the same problems (likely due to the large number of system services that inexplicably refuses to start) and the system restore says an error window saying "system restore is not able to protect your computer at this time. try restoring the system running and restart again", which of course NEVER changes. It's the equivalent of getting a tire on your car in the middle of nowhere to find the spare tire flat and the missing Jack. I have used to be fanatical about the definition of the regular restore points, but now can not access them. I have backups of most of my personal files, but over years have lost most of the original installation CD for many of my applications (there are over 100 applications on my system) and I don't want to lose the file associations and architecture of directory tree that it took my so long to implement. I started with Win XP media center edition of first (circa 2004 or almost) and have migrated twice more of 3 hard disks and 2 computers. All this time (5 years of daily use), I have NEVER known so many malfunctions for as many Windows basic and vital functions at the same time. I tried a lot of 3rd party "windows fix - it / registry repair" apps, all have no effect. Everything I can speculate is there was some serious damage to the registry and have no idea how/why so many Services refuse to start. In MMC, more than half of the services actually start and run, the rest all give the error message "the service or dependencies is not start (error 1068).» In addition, very oddly, no. APPS or windows appear in the toolbar AT ALL, but the Quick Launch toolbar works very well, just like the tray button and start tasks (?! )!). If I reduce a window, it "disappears" (Nothing on the task bar), but I can restore it using the alt - tab keyboard shortcut to switch apps, so all applications/windows appear on the list of the Task Manager. A few apps is paralyzed bad, as the player windows media, itunes, etc. (I guess because the service windows audio can not not start), some won't start at all, but 90% of them work fine, except to try to copy or back up all files. I can create new files, however. I'm desperate to find a solution to repair XP3 Win WITHOUT losing my installed applications and files, before I try and switch to WIndows 7. Any help/suggestions/links/advice would be much appreciated. I'm an experienced user, but I've never met so many malfunctions based on the OS at a time. I, however, very painfully learned (years before that my system so complex) it's been almost a re-installation of Windows guarantees to lose my installed apps and files, the directory tree architecture associations.

  Help, please!

  I'll be honest with you - your message is so difficult to read that I don't bother to go through all that. Next time consider using white space, ball or points numbered, etc. to make your message more readable. I stopped reading after your first sentence and only scanned the rest quickly. I do not mean to hurt your feelings; just trying to help you get targeted answers you need for the future.

  The blackout has corrupted your Windows installation. Back up your data now. Since you have problems so much, it would be probably best is to remove the hard drive, put it in a USB drive enclosure and attach it to another computer to copy the data OR start the target with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix system and copy the data to an external hard drive. IOW, do not use the damaged windows to try to get your data.

  You can try a repair that will leave your programs and facility data intact, but with this widespread bribery, it is unlikely to work. However, it takes only a few minutes and is so worth a try. If the repair facility does not work there is nothing to do, but a clean install. And Yes, it will mean that over again.

  Consider buying a UPS to help prevent future damage by power outages. For a single computer, you should look for one in the area of $60 to 80. A more expensive UPS is not necessary. Another good disaster recovery strategy is to buy an external hard drive and Acronis True Image. You can image your system (and can make an incremental backup image so that your image is still current). You can apply your image and be back running that you were in relatively few minutes after a hard drive or Windows to fail.

• Why don't I do drag and drop files between programs in windows 7?

  I just "upgraded" to Windows 7.  Why I can't drag and drop files into the program?  I get a circle with a bar.  Is there a setting I need to change to enable this feature?

  You most certainly can.  The same provisions still apply: If you try to drag an image file in Notepad, for example, it won't allow him, as always.

• Developer SQL 4.1.2.20 Build HAND-20, 64: cannot drag-and - drop in editor files include "#" in the name or the path

  Developer SQL 4.1.2.20 Build HAND-20, 64: I am not able to drag-and - drop a file from Windows Explorer into the SQL Developer Editor window if the name of the file or the path includes sharp «#» Unfortunately, my main directory structure contains a ' # ' in one parent folder names and I use drag-and - drop all the time... it is, I used to. :-)

  I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit with Service Pack 1

  It wasn't a problem in the previous version of SQL Developer 4.1.1.19 build HAND - 19.59.

  Thanks to study deeply and providing a repeatable test. It is a very strange edge cases.  Particularly interesting is...

  This same issue exists for JDeveloper Studio Edition Version 12.2.1.0.0

  After my tests in SQL Developer 4.1.2 the question seems to be, that say you, trying to open any file (I tried sql, xml, and pkb types) by drag-and - drop from Explorer Windows to a publisher of target opened on a XML file with a symbol of hash somewhere in the specification of the file it is.

  First of all, as a solution, I thought that I could recommend that you drag-and - drop since our view > files browser rather than Windows Explorer.  Which avoids the question and even you will descend on the Start Page tab, any worksheet or another editor must be opened before hand. However, there is a completely different problem with that: try to close the last tab of the XML Editor open blocking the entirety of the product.

  As you do not declare it against a release of the Early Adopter, where our team connect the bug, the standard procedure is so that you can open a service request with the support of the Oracle. My research did not turn any latest bug as this connected against SQL Developer or JDeveloper.

  Edit: In fact, just double click instead of using drag-and - drop from view > files avoids questions, name incorrect both hang at the end.

• cannot drag and drop bookmarks in FF12

  I just upgraded to 12.0 FF, and I find that I cannot drag and drop bookmarks in the window "show all bookmarks". I used to organize my favorites in this way, order them, put in folders, etc. I can remove bookmarks and I can even 'copy' and 'paste' to move them, but I can't drag and drop them more.

  When I return to FF11, which I had archived, it works fine.

  iMac 10.6.8

  OK, I have narrowed the problem down to the Torbutton add-on. That upgrade to the latest version! Then, at least for me, everything worked fine.

  I had used for a long time a very old version of Skype (3.8) without problem. Recently I have updated to the latest version, and now, I can't drag and drop files in a chat window.

• How to import or drag and drop photos into Windows Live Movie Maker?

  I'm unable to either import or drag and drop photos into Windows Live Movie Maker.  I just finished a movie and when I try to open a new project, I click on "Add photos and video", taking me to 'my pictures', but when I try to open him "add photos and video", the "file name" has so much history, it doesn't allow me to click on the location of my file.  How can I get rid of this story?  The first film was so easy, but this new project has been up to this impossible after about 7 hours of attempts.  Help, please!

  Hi Anniebp2,

  I think perhaps the best next step after all your efforts of trying to fix the program.  For this, since it is part of the Windows Essentials pack, you can go to the page Windows Essentials and re - download and re-install the package, which will update and fix the movie maker if necessary. I hope that this solves the problem for you. Please let me know how it goes.

• How can I fix the "drag and drop" feature in Windows 7? It used to work, but now does not work, for no apparent reason!

  How can I fix the "drag and drop" feature in Windows 7?  It used to work, but now does not work, for no apparent reason!

  What happens when you try?  Make sure you drag the icon image and not the text of the name.

  If it still doesn't work there are some registry changes that can try to alleviate the problem.  But because the changes to the registry are tedious and dangerous, I recommend to leave the system to repair it for you.  Here's how:
  1. Type of restore in the search box of the start menu to find and open to restore system files and settings from a restore point.
  2. Click Next, choose a date before the problem started, then click Next once more.

  • This process only takes around 2 minutes and only restores your system files/settings: it will not affect any of your files, documents, photos, emails, or anything else.
  If the system restore does not resolve the problem try this to replace missing or corrupted system files.  Here's how:
  1. Type cmd into the start menu search box, and then press Ctrl-Shift-Enter to launch as administrator.
  2. At the command prompt to start the File System Check, type sfc/scannow .

• Cannot drag and drop

  I use a virtual machine for Windows 10 under Fusion 8.1 on an iMac running OS 10.11.2. I can't drag and drop files between the desktop Mac computer and the virtual machine. I reinstalled VMWare Tools, but which did not help. Any ideas? Thank you.

  Hello

  These types of problems are almost always due to an install VMware Tools broken.

  Try not a repair within the guest OS installation as likely, that it will not fix this, unfortunately the "Reinstall VMware Tools" in the drop-down menu in the drop also falls into this category.

  You really need the OS reboot inbetween uninstall and install asked to ensure that all files are in the correct locations.

  In short, follow these steps:

  • Uninstall VMware tools
  • Restart the guest operating system
  • Install VMware Tools
  • Restart the guest operating system.

  A bit of a longer description is:

  • In Windows, go to control panel-> programs and features &-> select VMware Tools-> Uninstall

  Follow the steps in the installer to completely uninstall VMware Tools

  • Restart the client (== Windows)
  • In the Virtual Machine menu, select "Install VMware Tools"

  If no installation program appears, go to the DVD-rom of windows and click on "setup" (for 32-bit windows) or "setup64" (for windows 64-bit)

  Once you see an installation program, click on "Next" until the end, keep the default values.

  • Restart the client when installed (it will ask itself to restart)

• I can't drag and drop files in the trash, error code-43 is detected, what should I do?

  I can't drag and drop files in the trash, error code-43 is detected, what should I do? What is an error code - 43?

  You can't empty the trash or move a file to the trash

  If the above does not help, then see below:

  Visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the waste problems. You can also try using Trash it! 5.1 to solve the problem. Or you can try this:

  Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder, and paste the following at the command prompt:

  sudo rm - Rf ~ /. Trash

  Press RETURN. Enter your administrator password when prompted. It will not echo to screen. Press RETURN again.
