I have this problem with logitech master 3s on my macos tahoe 26 . And before I thinked it was my mouse truble, but no((
It’s appear randomly sometimes - and  dragging not working for half minutes . and its on timeline or when I try to stretch (drag) value of  parameters - its works as just click and stop - not holding - but other places an apps work well!!

I use extensions : Premiere composer and Motion Bro and plugin Logi Options+ (its installed automaticly with logi soft for mouse)

**And I think this trouble was long time - maybe half year or more or less((

I have the same problem using the built-in Trackpad on my M1 Pro MacBook Pro 16”. The Application is unusable.

Hi ​@Drew31697086puep , 

Thanks for the message. Welcome to the forums. Please give the team a few more details. Please see: How do I report a Problem?  Are you able to share a screen recording of the issues you’re experiencing? 

- Does this happen in all workspaces or only specific panels?
- Does it happen in other applications or only Premiere?

Sorry for the frustration. I hope we can help you soon.

Hi Rach,

I can only tell from my experience, but I seem to have the same problem.
 

The issue appears irregularly, but only in Premiere Pro.

When dragging a random item, no matter if its in the timeline or from the project tab into the timeline, sometimes it only clicks at the point where the drag starts. the dragged items do not move with the cursor.

Sometimes, the problem is resolved with the next try dragging something, only to occur a few times later. Sometimes, it occurs several times in a row.

Restarting, reinstalling Premiere did not help. Restarting the computer also did not improve the issue. Sometimes, using a different mouse or computer helps. 

The issue occurs between Pr 2025 and 2026.

I hope you can help soon because I am unable to work on the go. I unfortunately will have to switch to a better alternative soon.

 

Note: Sometimes, the drag gesture stops being registered WHILE dragging.

Hi ​@simonkleefuss,

Thanks for jumping in with some additional details, which really help. The fact that it only happens in Premiere and not other apps is useful info.

 

A couple of things worth trying:

 

  • Do you have any third party panels installed such as Artlist, Premiere Composer, or similar? If so, try closing or disabling them and see if the drag behaviour improves. Third party panels are known to interfere with drag operations in some cases.
  • Could you also try resetting your preferences by holding Cmd+Option on launch (Mac) and see if that makes a difference?

 

Also, could you let us know which exact version of Premiere you are on and which version of macOS you are using?  ​@Drew31697086puep are you also on a Mac?

 

Sorry for the frustration. I hope we can help you soon.
