[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1488865, member: 131855"] This is something of a shot in the dark but try the following and let us know the results: 1. Open your user folder (the one that looks like a house). 2 Find the "Desktop folder and do the Get Info command 3, Look at the Sharing and Permissions section. You may need to click the triangle next to it to see the contents. Let us know the results. If your user does not have read/writer permissions that could cause this problem. BTW do you get this problem if you try to drag files to places other than the desktop? [/QUOTE]
