Hello Anne: Oh, it works for me, basicaly asking for a friend of mine who can't get it to work on her MacBook Pro early 2011.
Ihave no issues on the iMac. Thanks for your thoughts though.

If you want to drag a file into a folder, you do VO-Comma on the file, navigate to the folder and press VO-Period and the file will move into the folder. If you're dragging from one window to another, both windows must be visible on the screen. You can use the commands for moving windows to put one at the top left and the other at the bottom right of the screen to be sure that they're both visible.
