Intersection only works in the editing context you are in. So if the top part is a group, you will need to explode it first (or edit the group to get that circle to appear inside the group).
As for orbit and pan: you need a three button mouse where you can use the middle button (the wheel) to click with: that's the Orbit tool and if you also press Shift, that's the Pan tool. Once you release the middle mouse button, you'll get back to the tool (Rectangle, Move etc.) that you were using before clicking.
Okay...totally makes sense. I think I got it. Also...the 3rd button was what I was missing...I wish there was a keyboard shorcut like in Photoshop, where I could just press and hold the space bar to enter pan mode and release to go back to the tool.
