OS X Yosemite :: Cannot Right Click On Desktop To Make Folder

Dec 8, 2014

Since I installed Yosemite, I cannot right click on the desktop to make a folder, I cannot drag any files or folders or anything to it or use it at all. It's nothing but a slate and useless. I figured it was a bad install so I reinstalled it today and got the same behavior. I wish I could revert to Mavericks and I tried with time machine but it wouldn't let me.

OS X Yosemite :: (10.10.1) Why Must Now Click Trackpad Twice

Dec 1, 2014

I've had a number of problems after installing Yosemite.  One is that when I click on a drop-down item in the main Finder navigation, the first click of my trackpad seems to "release."  I have to click a second time to take action. 

Other problems after installing Yosemite have included booting only to reach a gray screen with the cursor in the upper left corner ... that's as far as it got.  I've also had my screen images become something like a pixel puzzle ... rips, tears, and disintegration.  I've done clean installs and reloaded content from a Time Machine backup and that has mostly, but not completely, resolved the problems.  These problems, including the need to click twice described above, have occurred on both my iMac and my MacBook Pro. 

Info:
iMac (27-inch Late 2009), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

OS X :: Items Showing Up In Desktop Folder But Not On The Desktop Itself?

Mar 9, 2009

This doesn't happen all the time, but frequently enough to create a thread about it to find out what's going on.

I usually keep my desktop empty and use it to store stuff I'm going to process in the next hour anyway.
Sometimes my desktop is absolutely empty, but when I navigate to the following path: UserDesktop, the files do show up.

OS X :: Suddenly Can't Click Anything - Desktop Seems Unresponsive.

Oct 5, 2008

So I was just using my computer normally when I was suddenly having an issue where I could not click on anything. I was forced to hard restart but it did not help. I am still able to navigate with the trackpad or my mighty mouse (wireless) but clicking with either does nothing.

After some searching I have reset the pram multiple times and have also done command+S at boot and run fsck. Resetting the pram worked once, but only for maybe 5 minutes. During that time I ran a permissions test, it corrected 2-3 things but that is it. I have tried booting from the leopard cd but it spits the cd out.

The drive just clicks and wont do anything...

OS X V10.7 Lion :: MacBook Desktop Frozen - Cannot Right Click

Jul 4, 2012

My macbook desktop is frozen, only desktop. Everything else works fine. I logged into my other account on the computer I have, the desktop is fine, I can right click the desktop and it will bring the menu up, however, on the side that I use frequently, I cannot right click on the desktop, NOR can I drag anything to the desktop. All my software is up to date, I tried booting up in safe mode, I also used the force quit and relaunch, restarted computer many times, still nothing. Also weird about this is that itunes deleted itself earlier today, I had to re-download and install it again. The problem is happening since then. Finally, I read somewhere I may need to re-boot my computer with the lion CD; however, I don't have the CD I downloaded from the app store!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4)
