I'm running Mojave 10.14.6.

On previous version of OS X, I could click and drag files same as on other OSs. However, with this version, by default it had the 3-finger drag, which I disabled by un-checking Enable Dragging. Now when I try to click and drag a file, nothing happens. I need to click to select the file, at which point its highlit, and THEN I can click and drag it.

Does anyone know how I can configure my system so that I can just click and drag files without having to pre-click to select the file first?

  • I checked three different Macs. None exhibit this, so I would guess the real problem you’ve got is what modification on your system has changed the default behaviors. Have you made a new user account to rule out some setting or software your main user runs? It could be accessibility setting like here; https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/173832/macbook-trackpad-tap-to-drag-issues – bmike Dec 01 '19 at 13:50

My suspicion is you have Accessibility options you don’t like enabled.
