Three finger drag not working in bookmarks list

Before the latest Monterey update, I was able to open my bookmarks editor and use 3-finger drag to move my bookmarks up or down to organize them in my list. Since the update, the 3 finger drag is acting like the shift key and selects multiple bookmarks as you drag three fingers instead of moving your selection. Anybody know why this is happening. I do have 3-finger drag selected in preferences - Accessibility


Now how are we supposed to move our list around to get it in the order we prefer? Sometimes I think these updates are done for the sole purpose of aggravating users.

Hi DRBAJ,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! Is this only occurring in Safari? If so, we'd recommend closing the app and restarting which may help. To close the app fully go to Safari > Quit App in the menu bar as listed here:


Quit apps on Mac


Hope this helps!

Have a great day.
