You should be able to select them and drag them to the new location. Try holding the command key down while you drag them. What sort of files are you attempting to move?

I am attempting to move some EXEL files that have been saved as documents. When I open finder, these files do not appear in the recent, or last 30 days section so I need to search fro them. When they are found they are not on the page where the folder exists so I don't seem to be able to drag them to the folder.
