Click and drag not working in bookmarks or in text fields
Click and drag doesn't work with bookmarks anywhere or with any text fields. It used to work great in v11 but not in v12
I tried to go back to my back-up version of Firefox v11 but it keeps auto updating to v12 despite disabling auto update in preferences and even when off line - frustrating.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

To stop auto updating, change these settings in about:config to false (if not already false):
- app.update.auto
- app.update.enabled
- app.update.silent
Dragging bookmarks to the bookmark Library window works for me, and I am also using Mac OS 10.6 and Firefox 12. I drag from the icon at the left of the address bar. It also works if I drag from the tab.

@fintarry thanks, but about:config settings are all false, and drag and drop not working in FF at all.... still...
Thank you @ cor-el simple when you know how !
I had this problem... It turned out to be a conflict with the Tor add-on.
