I don't know the cause; but I solved a similar problem [not being able to drag in the Dock, Mail app, and Finder] by: running Disk Warrior, repairing Permissions, and trashing Finder & Dock preferences. I did the shotgun approach because no single thing appeared to fix it; but after doing the above [in order] everything worked as it was supposed to.
