Help!!! Weird OSX problem!

[Chaszmyr]

I have been using my computer and everything for a long time with no problems.

Today I plugged in my iPod and every application that was running (including the Finder) quit

I rebooted and tried plugging in the iPod again and the same thing happened

I rebooted again and didn't want to mess with the situation anymore so I didnt plug in my iPod and I went on with normal computer use.

At this point I discovered that I can not drag any file or folder anywhere. I rebooted and the problem persisted.

Not being able to move files seems to be the only problem with my computer right now...

Please help!

what happens when you try to move files/folders?

did you repair permissions?

did you do a file-system check?

which version of OS X?

When I try to move files or folders nothing happens... It just wont drag

I have not yet tried to do a file system check or repair permissions... I think I know how, just use the Disk Utility, right?

10.2.6
