I am using Firefox V12 and recently after I think installing google translate page to my book mark toolbar I can no longer: 1. Drag a web address onto the bookmark toolbar 2. Rearrange existing web addresses on the bookmark toolbar. 3. In customize toolbar I can't drag any icons out of the customize toolbar window. The hand appears over the icon but will not form a fist when the mouse button is pressed.

I have loaded IE and and I can do these function.

do you happen to have the torbutton extension installed - if so disable/uninstall it... it is no longer supported - you'd have to wsitch to the tor browser bundle, see: https://www.torproject.org/torbutton

Yes I did have torbutton, so I disabled in - tools, add-ons,extensions. Then everything worked perfectly again thanks

The Tor Bundle has more stuff in it than I want or use. It's easier to say "use the full updated bundle instead of Torbutton", but for me it's a lot of trouble to install the entire Tor Bundle. In contrast, it's not that much trouble to disable Torbutton once in a while, now that I know what the problem is.

Besides, I have read that there are about 5 or 6 other add-ons that also inhibit Drag and Drop functionality, not just the Torbutton add-on. The list is somewhere in the main Firefox support section (but it's tough to find the answer there twice).

The generic add-on troubleshooting page is at:
