That seems to be working. Thank you for the help!

Okay. Screen shot is below. Weirdly, it worked that time. If I click, shift-click, and drag all in one motion, it doesn't work. It seems to want me to click, shift-click, and then release the mouse before clicking again to drag them. Sometimes when I do that, though, I lose the selection, and only end up with one photo selected. It doesn't seem to be consistent in its behavior.

I go to the folder containing the photos I want to move. I click on the first photo in the series I want to move, then shift-click on the last photo, to highlight the series, and drag them to the destination folder. There are no error messages; just nothing happens. On the occasions where it has worked, there's a plus sign that appears as I'm dragging them, but when it doesn't work, there's nothing. After reading these forums, I'm careful not to select the edges of the photos, but it makes no difference where in the photo I select it. While I'm describing attempting to move a series of photos, which is what I usually want to do, I've also tried just selecting one photo and dragging it, but I have the same problem. It doesn't move, no error messages, and it stays selected.

I suddenly lost the ability to move photos from one folder to another via drag and drop (and I don't think there's another method). I've reviewed a couple of posts on this topic and none of the solutions work. So far, I have tried using shift-option to reset the preferences. I've deleted the preferences file and restarted my Mac (numerous times). (All that has done is give me those annoying first-time startup messages.) I've also optimized my catalog. I've checked permissions and I have read and write permissions to both of the folders in question. I've run Disk First Aid and found no problems. But moving photos does not work. I had this trouble a week or so ago, went on vacation, and when I returned, I was able to move one set of photos one time. After that, I lost the capability again. I get no error message; just nothing happens. System: iMac 27 inch, El Capitan, 10.11.6. Lightroom 6.8.
