Apple Mail Cut and Paste Problem

When I cut and past in Apple Mail font changes to smaller size. Any suggestions?

As you know, type sizes are uniform - unless you use cut-and-paste. The resulting text will sometimes be smaller, larger, or different than the type-style you began with.
Personally, I'd ignore it. But if you want to fix the font size, you can alter it in the Format Bar on the top of the Mail program. This allows you to change the type, size, and even alter special characters. To make the text uniform, highlight the text you want to alter, open the Format Bar, and change the settings.

Cut and paste problems

Cut and paste between program has been real buggy since upgrading. Today, I am trying to cut lines of text out of InDesign and paste into either a web browser or Mail, and nothing happening. Text cuts OK, cause I can paste it back into ID, but won't let me paste elsewhere. Had the same problem earlier pasting between Excel and ID. Anybody else experiencing this?

Cut and Paste problem with links in DW

Anyone have a clue as to why this is happening.....
when I cut and paste a complex link -- DW seems to add some characters.... see below....
Original Link
http://spie.org/app/program/index.cfm?fuseaction=exhibitordetail&exhibitorid=20189&meeting _id=169
Dreamweaver's modified link.... it's adding amp after the & sign....
http://spie.org/app/program/index.cfm?fuseaction=exhibitordetail&exhibitorid=20189&meeting _id=169
Simple links stay the same... but this got me in a little hot water with a client when I sent out an email from constant contact....
Thanks

oh... couple things.... I'm working on:
OS 10.6.2 (MAC)
CS4

"it's adding amp after the & sign"
It's not actually adding "amp".
DW is assisting you by encoding the "&" (which validators assume to be a broken HTML entity since they start with "&") and replacing it with the correct form of "&" so that browsers can understand the URL.

Dreamweaver cut and paste problem! LAST RESORT!

Hello there people
I am in desperate need of some help, I have exhausted all
other options and I REALLY hope some one on here will be able to
help me!...
I was halfway through an index.html doc when my cut and paste
option stopped working! if you go to edit, all the options are
greyed out! and keyboard shortcuts wont work either! I have tried
opening my other docs and they are all the same!,
Thinking it was a bug I downloaded some updates, I then tried
re-installing, and then removing the WHOLE thing then
re-installing! Ive also looked at windows and there does not seem
to be a problem there either!
Cut and paste works EVERY where else except in DW!
It is looking like maybe I have "selected" some thing, but I
have checked every thing I know and still NOTHING!!
can any one shed any light on this?

IVE GOT THE ANSWER!
In Windows, browse to this file:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application
Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\panelset.xml
Rename the panelset.xml file to panelsetOLD.xml, so that
Dreamweaver will automatically create a new panelset.xml
file.

Mail: cut and paste behaving strangely

When writing a new email, I often rewrite and edit the text using cut and paste, but lately when I paste, the text is placed is completely unexpected places, usually back at the start of the paragraph.
Is there some setting I have inadvertently changed?
Thanks for any help.

Adobe Reader/Preview pdf-to-Word cut and paste problems...

Hi,
I often cut and paste from pdfs of documents where the text is in two columns, to Word documents...and without fail, I get a jumbled-up mix of BOTH columns of text that I have to mess with, deleting bits I don't want, squishing-up the text I do, etc...
What am I doing wrong, and is there anything I can do to stop this happening?!
Thanks very much for any advice.

If you are using Adobe Reader to open the pdf then the selection tool should highlight what you are copying and pasting. Unfortunetley sometimes with double row columns you are forced to copy parts of text that you don't want.

Cut and paste problem

When I cut and paste from a photoshop document into a new image, the edges are automatically feathered, as pictured below. How can I keep this from happening?

Make certain your Feather value is 0 when creating a selection.
(It's in the Control bar at the top of the screen)

Suggestion I made to Apple on Cut and Paste

I posted the following suggestion to the feedback web page on cutting and pasting with an iPhone:
You have undoubtably heard many requests for cut and paste. It seems to me based upon my two decades of software experience is that the text-based paradigm found in the emacs editor works works better than a mouse-based one. (As you stated in your developer guidelines a finger does not equal a mouse.) I suggest that double-tapping an editable region enters "edit mode" (and exits it also). Edit mode has four buttons. "Set mark", "cut", "copy", and "paste". "Set mark" sets a mark point at the current cursor location and creates a selection region between the mark point and the current cursor location. Cut, copy, and paste work in their traditional fashion of working with the OS X cut buffer.

Cut and paste problem in an applet :(

Hi All,
I have developed an applet based GUI and now I wanted to cut and paste some text from an external application say from a notepad(Windows) to a
JTextfield in the applet. I tried to do it on a applet but it was not allowing me to do it. I was able to do the same(cut and paste) on a textfield when run as an application. So does the cut and paste operation has anything to do with the sandbox security provided by an applet model?. This sounds bit crazy or maybe Im missing something here. Would appreciate help on this.
Thanks a ton!
Thanks,
Ram

You can always use CTRL-C and CTRL-V to copy/paste, but if you want to right-click, you have to implement it yourself.. Here's MY implementation, if even has 'Undo'!

Apple Mail send and receive problems, Network Solutions

Hello Everyone,
I'm currently facing a problem with a company email account that we have with network solutions.
NSmail Pro (IMAP) that is configured with apple mail. Here are the settings that i have:
Incoming mail: mail.(company.domain).com
Port: 110
SSL: No
Outgoing mail: smtp.(company.domain).com
Port: 2525
SSL: No
Auth: Password
Whenever i'm at the office, I can send and receive emails without any problems (Using mail app), but when i'm at home i can't receive emails nor send one.
I'm wondering if this has something to do with the Mail application, cause i can access the email using the webmail on a browser without any problems (either at home or at the Office).
Any thoughts from our experts?

I'm guessing that when you are at the office, you are probably accessing a company network and the company mail will only work with those settings on the company network. You may need to discuss this with your IT department at work to see if it need a different configuration for outside access.
The fact that it works at work and not at home indicates a that it surely an issue with the connection setup.
Assuming that you are accessing it through wi-Fi at both locations, do you have different wi-Fi connections set up on you Mac in Network Preferences, or is it the same wi-Fi connection used for both? In other words, do you have a specific wifi setup on your computer for connecting at the office?

Never in all my years have I seen this cut and paste problem - can anyone help?

Hi all... I've been using Illustrator since v5, and never before has something foxed me as much as this...
I have a document supplied from a customer to make up into packaging artwork. To start with, the file is 19MB which set the alarm bells ringing, as it has no images etc, and is fairly simply made up (it's a milk carton sleeve). However, when you copy any single element (even a simple shape) from the file and paste to a new doc it takes literally 2 mins to copy, and a minute or so to paste it into the new doc, and then comes in with nearly 100 colours - all called 'Deleted Global Color (1-100)'. You can delete these colours by selecting remove unused colours, but even then when you save the file down (an A4 page with a simple shape coloured in black), the file is 47MB!!! (which is obviously why I can't attach it)...
I've looked in the appearances etc and nothing seems untoward - all masks have been disabled etc. As you can imagine, the file is very hard to work with, and even to deconstuct it is proving to be an impossible feat.
If anyone has ever seen anything like this or if anyone knows what might be causing the problems or can suggest any way of tackling it, then I can be most grateful. I can supply a file if needed, but as mentioned, they are quite large!
Thanks in anticipation, Karl

Thanks Tom - I'm sure this is related to my problem in regards to the file having a severe 'lame ducks' problem. However, the answer in Teri Pettit's post (http://adobe.groupbrowser.com/t177412.html) is very specific to the user's problem she is addressing, so when I followed the instructions it didn't work for my file as I couldn't locate the offending string of text, as that must have been specific to the file that was being looked at.
My file seems much worse! The file Teri was looking at was saving down at 6-8MB - mine saves down anything between 40-80MB. Though I'm sure it is the same problem.
I could really do with getting in touch with Teri Petitt, but I am unsure as to how I can do this, as the adobe group browser doesn't let you reply to posts.
Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction - I feel like I'm getting closer to a solution, just hope I can get in touch with Teri...
Cheers, Karl

Mail no longer puts commas on multiple e-mail cut and paste

Occasionally I send out an email to hundreds of e-mail address's.
I generally send 30 at a time.
I copy them from my Bento list and put them into the BCC box.
It the past Mail always put in a comma to separate the address's.
In othe rwords after the .com
This is the first time I am sending them under Maverick and the commas are gone and the warning comes up that the address's is unacceptable.
Obviously because of the comma's missing.
Is their a way to do this, other then going in and putting a comma after every address?

Do you still have the location bar or is there no text visible on the location bar?

I can't cut and paste any images into apple mail

I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet.
I am using a gmail pop account and firefox as my primary browser. It took me a few times to figure this out as the image appears to be attached in my mail, but is removed when I send, such that if I have text and an image in an email the recipient receives only the text. Before I hit send I can see both the text and the image.
I have tried starting again in safe mode and repairing permissions. That has not helped. I can login to my gmail regularly and cut and paste images with no problem.
This is exceptionally frustrating.

Hello. In 2012 you answered a query about the following problem:
"I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet."
This problem started with me this morning and it does not happen when I open a test account. The thread stops after you asked if it occurs in the test account, did you ever find a solution to this issue? I am using mac mail 3.6 on system 10.5.8.
I hope you receive this, I have never posted in one of these forums.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Can't cut and paste in a web based e-mail service. (Not G-mail)

I belong to a membership site that is coaching me on e-mail marketing. I want to cut and paste different bits of information and ad links etc. to emails that I am sending out through the site.
For some reason, Firefox will not allow me to cut and paste when I am in this particular site??
I can cut and paste in Microsoft Word and other programs with no problem. But when I'm on this particular site it's no deal.
This is very frustrating. What can I do to resolve the problem.

I've had this happen a couple of times. Seems it just gets a bit borked sometimes.
Best thing to do is close Pages (or whatever), then do an iOS reset (hold power button then home button till screen goes blank and apple logo comes up and then let go).
Cut copy paste should work again as normal.
