Thanks for that last post Mike. I was having trouble saving to a spinner and a SSD in my Mac Pro
and reading that article helped me figure it out now I can save to both drives. Yea!

Re: Drag & Drop not working in DP9
When i installed the latest DP version, I ran into this as well.
The only thing that worked for me was to "IMPORT AUDIO" from the Soundbites window then drag into the tracks window(s).

Re: Drag & Drop not working in DP9
Actually that is what I do now when drag drop doesn't work.The only thing that worked for me was to "IMPORT AUDIO" from the Soundbites window then drag into the tracks window(s).
However I did notice that some files do work and some don't.
I did realize that it was just a personal attachment of convenience for me and importing and then dragging only take a couple seconds more and one additional move.
But you know how us compulsive types are...
