Bridge cant' copy and paste metadata

I have found a minor bug (most likely overlooked till now) in PS CS6 Beta.   when you open a folder of images in the new version of bridge and you got to the metadata.   You are not ablt to cut and paste info from one box to another like previous versions.  tell me, this will be fixed please.

P.S.  One more annoyance I have found is that your program will not allow me to place the App icons where I want on my dock bar (Mac OS 10.6.8)   I lke them to sit about 2/3rds across on the bar, but they keep putting themselves back to about a 1/3rd of the way across.     It's very annoying. I'd like to know if there is a way to stop this happening....

I disagree Richard.      I was on CS4. It became corrupted. I couldn't find my discs and I could see that CS6 beta was already out, so I didn't want to buy CS5, knowing that 6 is coming out.  Now that is why I'm on CS6 Beta.    When  I was on CS4  my app icons would stay exactly where ever I put them.   It is definitely not the case with these new Bridge and PS CS6 icons.    3 times now, I've placed them 2/3rds along the dock and 3 times now it's repositioned them to about 1/3rd of the way along.   I've never seen any app's icons do this ever and I have not changed operating systems recently.   If you're interested in looking into it.  I have a Mac Pro  2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon   running Mac OS 10.6.8 (snow leopard)   I'm just offering you guys these observations in the spirit of cooperation.     Maybe there is a hidden functionality on the doxk that this new version has activated...

  • Shortcut-Bug in Bridge CS6 for Mac / Bridge cant' copy and paste metadata

    The cmd-keys / shortcuts doesn't work in the file info panel btw. in the xmp / iptc fields (e.g. cmd+c, cmd+v, ...) of Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac OS 10.6.8 and 10.7.3). You are not able to cut and paste info from one box to another like previous versions.
    This bug only appears in the file info window (opened via alt+i) in Bridge CS6 - if you edit information or metadata in the file info panel in Photoshop CS6, the shortcuts or copy and paste from one field to another works.
    The shortcuts also work under Windows (tested under Vista).
    I noticed this minor bug already one in the Photoshop CS6 Beta more than one months ago. I hoped that this was corrected in the official test version, but unfortunately it is not. Although it is a minor bug, it is IMHO a basic function and would be very helpful in my daily work. Bridge CS6 and ACR 7 are very good and meet my expect ions or needs - it is too bad, that such a small thing is making working with the application a little bit annoying.
    It would be nice, if you could forward this to Adobe engineers that they can fix it.
    Thanks so much!

    Thanks! If there is a workaround or simple solution, I would be very glad if you could inform me.

  • Copy and paste metadata

    I'd like to be able to copy and paste metadata from one to many. I envisage it as a process similar to copying and pasting Adobe Camera Raw settings, with a Paste Special style dialog. Camera EXIF data would be excluded, but you'd be choose to paste just the keywords, or the keywords and the description etc.
    While you can always save a metadata template, that's not ideal for routine work. And you have to edit a metadata template manually before risking applying it to other images.
    John

    You could modify the code to suit as an example I have added Description to Keywords
    This just appends the description, if you want to replace uncomment the marked line..

    Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
    You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine.  You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
    That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
    You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
    You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)

  • Mini Bridge using copy and paste

    I currently have CS5 extended installed on a desktop (xp 32 bit) and a laptop (Win7 64 bit) all files are up to date. When I start Photoshop create a new file, start mini bridge to select the file I want to copy and paste into my new file. I select the file,it opens in Photoshop I press these key strokes (control-A; control-C), move to the file to be copied to and press control-V. The file may or may not be copied. Even pressing control-V several times. You can press edit; paste and still nothing happens. But press edit; paste special; the file will be copied into the file.  If the file is copied on the first try go back and select a different file and repeat the process. To get the file pasted into the document I; created a new layer; control-V; file is copied to a layer.  If I create a new layer then turn off this layer press: control-V the file can also be copied to a layer.  All of the above is when I start mini bridge to navigate to the files. 
    Now close Photoshop and Bridge.  Restart Photoshop start Big Bridge (not mini bridge)! Create a new file; use Big Bridge to navigate to the file you want to copy into the new document, files opens into Photoshop enter the keyboard short cut or tool bar to select the file, copy the file. Now switch to the file to be pasted into  press;control-V or select; file; paste; now everything's works.  Try this process with different files to be pasted into the new document and it works flawless every time.
    The above problem is present on both computers.  My question is has anyone seen this or am I the only one?  I stumbled on this a couple of days ago, sure I can work around this using Big Bridge. 
    Thanks in advance for your replys.

    It seems as though the window is losing focus. If after you Ctrl+C, switch over to the other document and then press the enter key twice or switch tools or click on the document window (with the move tool), then it seems to paste.

  • Suddenly I cant copy and paste copy/cut/paste is not available in Mozillia and firefox. Never seen this before

    I have never seen this before when I try to copy and paste, I get a
    "Copy/cut/ paste is not available in Mozilla and firefox. Do you want more information about this issue? "
    I have copied and pasted hundreds of times before with Mozilla and firefox . This just happened suddenly.
    when I go to find more information on this issue, it give a long drawn out explanation I cant follow.
    What happened?

    When you right-click the link, the page immediately tells you you can't copy, or does that occur after you choose Copy Link Location?
    If it appears immediately, you can switch a setting in Firefox that should prevent sites from blocking the normal right-click menu. Here's how you would do that:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''context''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''dom.event.contextmenu.enabled''' preference to switch it from true to false.
    This setting does have a complication: On Google Maps and other sites that have their own right-click menu, Firefox's menu then will block the site's menu. To clear Firefox's menu so you can access the site's menu tap either the Alt key or Esc key once (but sometimes Esc removes both).

  • I cant copy and paste to my schools discussion post

  • Cant copy and paste text or move by paragraph in email compose window

    Hi, win8, heaps of memory, TB 24.6.0, various add-ons
    The copy and paste just stops functioning sometime - when I select ctrl+c then ctrl+v nothing happens.
    Also, ctrl+ left /right arrows will move by word, but up/down arrows do nothing.
    Both the copy paste and the para up/down have never had a problem in any other programme.
    (Now I just tried pasting into notepad and it worked! Then it pasted within the compose window too... I had copied something else in the meantime, don't know what fixed it.)
    This is very annoying. Is there a quick fix? No I don't want to spend 3 weeks mucking around with add-ons, creating new profiles or starting in safe mode - surely only 1 person needs to do that then tell the community the answer??? (or better still fix the issue!)

    Insult what was the insult.... really speak up. And before you get to smart about it
    Was it is telling you your it. Well sorry to break it to you but I don't see anyone else with the problem so they can go through the diagnostic process on your behalf. So no one has an answer, and neither do you.
    So your still it.
    Why am I posting if I don't know the answer? That is simple really. We volunteer our time to try and help our fellow Thunderbird users. When new problems do arise we try and get to the bottom of them and get them fixed. Your problem is one such. You have now made it abundantly clear to me you do not want support as it is offered for Thunderbird so I will go away. I suggest you continue to use your workaround.
    <blockquote>Hi, win8, heaps of memory, TB 24.6.0, various add-ons </blockquote>
    Then update to the current version. 24 is no longer supported. Even if it has a bug, no one is going to fix it.
    Restart with add-ons disabled and see if it helps. (Add-ons are supported by their author. If they mess with Thunderbird that is a problem for the add-on author not anyone here.)
    If that does not cover it perhaps you need to file a bug in [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ bugzilla]. But be warned. Developers are not interested in anything that does not move a bug forward. They will make you go through the diagnostic process before they will even accept that there is a bug. They will ask you for steps to reproduce the problem. They often close bugs "works for me" if they are unable to replicate the behavior and there is a single reporter,

  • Track CST to Bus CST: Cant Copy and Paste?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm using a Track CST on an audio track, and would like to move it to an Bus so multiple tracks can use it. However, I'm not able to copy and paste the channel strip settings from a track to a bus! Why?! Am I doing something wrong? What's the easiest way to get around this?

    Thanks. This will work, though I wonder why its not possible to simply copy and paste channel strip settings, regardless of the track type? I'm going to send logic a feedback, as this seems like an oversight.
    Thanks for the help though!

  • Cant copy and past certain txt msg's with iPhone 4??

    Just picked up my new iPhone 4 yesterday, and noticed something weird with my cut and paste. I have a twitter account, and have some of the tweets sent to my phone as txt messages. Sometimes with my old Iphone 3G phone I would copy a tweet, and paste into a txt message to a friend who is not on Twitter.
    Now with the new Iphone 4 I CAN'T copy Twitter txt messages. Only text messages from individuals will copy.
    Anyone else having this issue?
    thanks,
    Win

    This is within the iPhone's own MESSAGE application. These twitter messages are being sent to the iPhone as text messages. They show up as coming from 404-04.
    As I said, text messages from individuals are working fine with cut and paste,
    but anything from Twitter is not working.

  • Using copy and paste in Adobe Bridge 5.0

    When using Adobe Bridge 5.0, and while adding metadata to photos, whenever I use the command control-C to copy and paste metadata entries, my software locks up and I have to reboot.  The last time this happened, I was told to clear my Cache, and that worked, but now I have cleared the cache several times and rebooted, and the software still locks up.

    I would suggest posting this question in the Adobe Bridge forum, located here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/bridge
