I opened up MC to play yesterday and was able to gather items and whatnot, but when I went into my inventory to remove/craft I could not select any of my items. So I closed out and opened it up today and still have the same problem. I am not certain what to do at all and I have not been able to find another topic pertaining to a similar situation. Everything was working fine just a few days prior, so I am very confused. I also cannot remove items from chests. I have the new update for 1.6 (was playing in 1.5 when the issue started) and I still have the same problem. I am not tech savvy, so I do not know what is causing this.

Thank you.
Have you tried replacing your .minecraft folder with a fresh one? Obviously you'll want to copy over any saves before you do that and replace them once the fresh one has been created.
Yeah... I'm really REALLY not tech/comp savvy. I wouldn't know where to begin to do that. Unless there was some kind of simple guide somewhere to do it.

Here's what you have to do:
1. Go into any folder.
2. Click the Organize drop down menu.
3. Go to folder and search options.
4. Click the View tab.
5. Under Hidden files and folders, select "Show hidden files, folders, and drives".
6. Hit ok.
Now that hidden files are showing:
1. Go to your User folder in the start menu.
2. Once inside it, open the appdata folder (it should look semi-transparent, this means it is a hidden folder)
3. Go into the folder called .minecraft
4. Copy your "saves" folder to somewhere safe, this is the one that has your game saves in it. If you have any screenshots you can copy the "screenshots" folder to somewhere else to save them as well.
5. Delete the .minecraft folder.
Next:
1. Start minecraft. The .minecraft folder will be re-created.
2. Exit minecraft, then copy the "saves" and "screenshots" folders you copied somewhere safe back into the .minecraft folder that just got created.
Is that for a Mac? If it is, then none of that is showing up. Sorry for all of this confusion. I should have stated earlier that I am on a Mac lap top.Okay, I got it to work! Thank you so much for your help! I'm sorry for being such a dummy. XD
