How do you "drag" something on macbook air?
I don't have a mouse... just the little square pad thing...

Simply click the object, hold down the mouse button and drag (much like you would on Windows).

Actually, on the MacBook Air there ISN'T a mouse button (or you might say the entire trackpad is the mouse button). You can set the MBA to handled dragging in one of several ways; see the trackpad system preference panel and learn about the default and your options on that point.

I like "tap to drag" on the track pad. Just tap (not click) once on an object then drag it around with your finger. Tap once again to drop.
