Drag files from a folder on the docking station to a folder in the finder (El Capitan)

We have recently improved Mavericks in El Capitan at work and I noticed some lost (apparently) features. Is no longer, I can click on my downloads on my dock folder and drag a file into a folder in the Finder. When I try to do it now, nothing happens, regardless of the file type.

It is a small annoyance, but it was very convenient I wanted to download a file and do not have to navigate to the folder that is specific to each time. I often deal with lots of images and files on a single task, so it's much faster to send them all to my downloads and grab them off the Dock since she ordered chronologically downloads it.

Someone has the same problem and have a solution?

(Card: OS X El Capitan, Version 10.11.6, iMac 27 inches, end of 2013, 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, 500 GB, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775 M 2048 MB)

What happens if you try to drag the file in the downloads folder in your user/Home folder?

  • On my iPad, can I move files from one folder to another, but not in the Preview file, why?

    When you manage files in iCloud, from an iPad, I can move to the files from one folder to another, but not in the Preview file. Secondly, when I check the file Preview to iCloud from Mac content is so different when you look at an iPad. Why is the gap between the iPad and the Mac?

    Try to go to iCloud.com to see if the elements are there and whether the device or the computer. That should indicate if the device or computer is not synchronizing. If the computer, try going to System Preferences/iCloud and stop synchronization. Wait a few minutes, then recheck the timing. If the device, go to settings/iCloud and do the foregoing.

    Hello

    I tried many combinations of the different pc in order to transfer files from one pc to the other and only max speed I have is from 4 to 10 Mbps.

    I use the switch/cat6 cables only the router is capable of 100 Mbps.

    Also, I connect the pc directly with cable and still the same speed.

    Win7 will get more than that and how?

    I read the other posts on this topic, but all patches are not applicable to me.

    I used various cables and switches and PCs in order to eliminate the possibility of a defective unit.

    Can you please help?

  • Can you move a file from one folder to another without losing the non-destructive updates

    Hi my hard drive is organized so that each of the topics, for example Le Mans 2006, takes place in a separate folder, with a number of subfolders, as negative that hold my files raw which are never affected, in turn, processed, etc. Twenty top. So I move my files from subfolders. When I try to do that in LR, I get a warning message that seems to say that if I move the file I lose the details of non-destructive changes. If this is true then I can see LR add to my workflow, not improving it. Is it possible to get a shift of folder in the catalog without losing data?

    Hi ovonel

    You will lose not no editing, as you did on the picture when you move the File.You can always undo any changes made to your image (non-destructive editing) in the history panel in the develop module. The content of your Raw file is not affected.

    The warning below is just saying that Ctrl (command) + Z will not void. . It moves the file to the original location too. (of course, you can move the file back to the previous location)

    Hope that helps

    I would like to know if I can drag and drop files to transport CANADA to free up space on my Mac.

    Yes, but the fact that you can do something does not suggest that it would be wise to do. Please take a minute to think about it per.

    If you delete files on your Mac for free space and move them to the TC... so that only one copy of these files you will be on the TC.  What will happen to the files when... not if... you have a problem with the TC?

    A plan much better, faster and more secure would be to add a USB to your Mac and move your files there. Then, Time Machine can back up your Mac and the USB attached to your Mac to the TC.  It would be a minimum backup... plan your files 'master' on the USB drive and 'backups' on the TC.
