I have CS6 Suite on Asus laptop w WIN10 and got this same problem in Illustrator.

found the fix is to use WIN key in addition to holding Spacebar.

Do not press win key + space bar (which is for changing keyboard language settings). Press space bar + win key and it works fine.

I have already answered this question.

 

Do not press win key + space bar (which is for changing keyboard language settings). Press space bar + win key (together) and it works fine.

Hey, after trying every other technique around involving the spacebar plus something else, I found out that if you simply hold the left mouse key down and move around (or you pen down and move around) it drags things without needing to click on anything additionally. It's so much more intuitive but I expected it to work like any other adobe app! 

 

TLDR: Hold click and drag with cursor or pen

Your right. It took me awhile to find the handle tool. It should be obvious, like in Photoshop. I tried the space bar + click, and it does not work. However, my laptop is a touch screen, and I can use my pen to navigate the page. The Adobe team needs to look into this.
