This is really an Illustrator question which would be better asked in the Illustrator Mac forum, but...

Forget the dragging to the Desktop bit. Use Symbol Libraries.

In your source document, create your symbol(s) by dragging your artwork to the Symbols palette. Save your Illustrator file.

In the destination document, open the Symbols palette. From the palette menu choose Open Symbol Library > Other Library. Navigate to the AI file with the saved symbol(s) and open it. A new palette will open, named the name of the AI file, which will contain all the symbols in that file. Drag your symbol into your artwork.
