Why can't I drag anything with my mouse in Photoshop?
I was working in Photoshop yesterday and all of a sudden I can't move anything around with my mouse, only the arrows. I have tried resetting preferences, opening and closing the program, restarting my computer and searching online since yesterday for an answer or way to fix it. Nothing seems to work... I think I must have accidently selected/deselected and option that disabled my mouse actions. I can move the arrow around and select the items but I can't drag them. I have a laptop with a built in mouse. What do I do?

Ok and restart the PC. Hopefully, you should be able to drag now.

There's no such option within Photoshop. Did you change your hardware lately? Maybe your mouse driver is bad? I've actually never heard of such a problem before, so my recommendation would be to look to your operating system. There's almost certainly a control panel for any built in mouse (do you mean track pad?).
Thanks,
David
