Cannot copy and paste descriptions in PDF Portfolio

I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5.1 on a Windows 7 laptop. Since a recent update I am unable to copy the description in a PDF Portfolio and paste it back. I used to be able to copy the description; delete the file; add an updated file and then paste the description back. Now I have to re-type the description. I cannot event copy and paste a description from another PDF portfolio. Can you advise why this is so and is there a workaround?

Adobe does not report the progress of bug reports to the public, nor can I comment on the timescale for any future updates or what they may contain. Priority is of course given to the current Acrobat X Family and recently-announced Acrobat XI Family.
Copy/paste between all the file details fields in PDF Portfolios is fully functional in Acrobat X Pro (which currently has a captive install of Flash Player) and in Acrobat XI Pro (which does not). I don't have an install of 9.5.1 to test your bug report against, but whatever is causing the issue in your case it's not an intentional change.

Preview - Cannot copy and paste text from pdf

Hi there ...
I usually have no problem copying and pasting text from a pdf using Preview ...
However .. I recently received a pdf ... and there is no way it will highlight the text to copy ...
The older pdf's are not affected ...
I did a get info on the pdf ... it's not locked ... and it was made by Adobe In Design CS2
I tried opening it with Adobe Reader 9 ...... but still no luck
IN my search .. I noticed one other person had the same problem ... but he didn't get any responses..
Thanks for any info ....

If it's behind something else then you can open it in Illustrator and select the specific object you want. If it's rasterized then no.
If this is a document you can share with the world then I'm sure we could tell you what specifically is going on if you posted it here.

Does anyone know how to copy and paste from a pdf document?

I am trying to copy and paste from a pdf document to put on facebook, but I cannot highlight the text I want to copy.
Any suggestions???

It is a generated pdf doc. I can highlight the text, but as soon as I let go of the mouse button, the highlighting disappears. If I right-click the mouse, there is no copy/past option. Only a select, zoom and marque tool option.

I just bought this in order to copy and paste from a PDF and after I convert I still can't..

Hi helpme59,
It depends upon the restrictions set on the pdf.
If the creator of the pdf has set restrictions against copying then you will not be able to copy the content.
Are you facing the same issue with all the pdf's?
Would it be possible to share the pdf with me.

Currently, I cannot copy and paste using the icons in the toolbar. How do I enable this?

I am trying to make edits to a website for our company. Currently, I cannot copy and paste using the icons in the toolbar. Instead, I have to use control+c and control+v which doesn't always work. How do I enable the feature to be able to use the icons?

Are those toolbar buttons grayed?
Do the entries in the Edit menu look enabled if there is text selected or text on the clipboard?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Mountain Lion - cannot copy and paste in finder

Hey,
     I've only just noticed this today and I've done a search but can't find anything so far to help me. I upgraded from lion to mountain lion the day after it was released, not fresh install, upgrade. Basically... I cannot copy files using either cmd+c / cmd+v or using the finder edit->copy / edit-> paste menu. They aren't greyed out. Everytime I try I get the error "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items.".
This will happen even with a newly created folder. I can delete files. I can create files. I can drag files in finder without issue but I cannot copy and paste. I'm guessing there are permission issues going on but I don't know where to start.
Repairing permissions didn't help (I kinda didn't think it would given it only works on system files but thought it worth a go).
This is an example of the file permissions assigned to a screen grab on my desktop:
-rw-r--r--@ 1 jackwestbrook staff
64257 1 May 19:48 Screen Shot 2012-05-01 at 19.48.27.png
Even if I blow it wide open with chmod 777 I still can't copy it...
-rwxrwxrwx@ 1 jackwestbrook staff
64257 1 May 19:48 Screen Shot 2012-05-01 at 19.48.27.png
These are the permissions assigned to my desktop:
drwxr--r--+ 19 jackwestbrook staff
646 19 Aug 18:24 Desktop
Can anyone offer me some advice on where to start with sorting out this issue?
Cheers,
Jack

Hey, I was really loathed to try reinstalling the OS and something told me that I'd I can drag and drop but not copy and paste there had to be something interfering with the clipboard.
I disabled Alfred and its clipboard history feature (http://www.alfredapp.com/) and rebooted. Amazingly this fixed my issue. I'm going to email the author in the morning to give them a heads up about this.
Thanks to both of you for taking the time to offer me advice.
John Guo - nice tip, wasn't aware of that!

Cannot copy and paste a slideshow- and what is an Album?

I have created a slideshow in a folder called MISC. I think it is a "slideshow" because the icon looks like a 35mm slide.
I want to copy this slide show and move it to a folder called 2007.
No matter what I do, I cannot copy and paste it. Once a slide show is created in a folder, are you now longer able to move it?
also, what is an album and when would i start one. What is the purpose of an Album?

I want to copy this slide show and move it to a folder called 2007.
Is this in the iPhoto Window? Drag and drop.
An album is an collection of photos. You might gather them together because you want to have all your photos of your dog in one place, quite independent of when they were taken. OF you can make a Smart Album based on any of the criteria you can discover by using the File -> New Smart Album command.
The core difference between an album and an Event is that a photo can be in 100 albums and not take up any extra disk space whereas it cannot be in more than one Event without duplicating files.

Cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail

I cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail. Neither from using the keyboard shortcuts, or using the Menu function. I can copy and paste from other applications into Mail- but for some reason, text copied from a Word document (both in .txt and .doc formats) will not paste into an open email. Anyone else have this issue? It's a new issue. I used to be able to do this easily.

I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

Cannot copy and paste anything

Hello,
I need help. I have two very large tech articles to post on my site and I cannot copy and paste anything. Cannot copy in paste items within the page or from word or notepad. It is as if the clipboard does not function at all. I am using Firefox 3.0 with the latest build version. Please help me out.

Hello,
Do you have the same problem with IE or Safari? Please try using a different browser to see if you can copy and paste your content. The current version of Firefox is 3.6. Do you have the same problem if you update Firefox?
What operating system are you running?
Best regards,
Corey

Is this from within a document, or trying to paste external content, or both? Have you tried Replace Your Preferences ?

Cannot copy and paste in an Excel 2010 file

Cannot copy and paste in an Excel 2010 file
The user has modify rights, and on other files it works fine. She can save and do everything with the file except copy and then past to another tab in the same file or a new one. Or anywhere.
We tried the file with a different user from the same department and there it does work.
I tried to disable the X-com plugins and disable OVF for performance also. Nothing works...anybody knows maybe what the issue might be ?
The file is on a network drive on a domain and does work on another user to copy and paste. I have not let her log in with the same user account n test it on a different system so I asked and will get a update soon. There are no error messages the
paste option is greyed out.

Hi,
How about the issue now, is it solved?
This issue might be caused by her user profile. What the result would be if using another user account to log on her computer to test this issue.
Also do you have the same problem when you open excel in Safe Mode?
Try opening Excel without any Add-ins or hidden workbooks:
Press and hold the CTRL key, and then click the excel program.

Cannot copy and paste objects in my project... Captivate 6

Hello,
I actually wrote about this yesterday, but I would like to mention it again because it's a big problem. I have a Adobe Captivate 6 project, and I cannot copy and paste text captions, buttons, smart shapes, etc. Do any of the experts out there have any advice? I could probably send you a video of the problem if you'd like...
Thank you in advance!
Ryan

Solution : I created a new project and copied and pasted the slides from the old project to the new project. Copy and paste works as it should in the new project.
