Thanks for the suggestions Thomas. I did VO shift M and selected the paste item when I was sitting in the folder I wanted to move the item to, and it actually pasted the item in that folder. Don't know why command v itself didn't move it. Is this a common occurence, where you actually have to press VO shift M and paste item in order to get it to move to your selected folder? Thanks, T.J.
