Can not copy X11 to the clipboard in OS 10.5.7

After updated to the recent version of Mac OS X (10.5.7), I found it is no longer able to copy any thing from an X11 application like Emacs to other Mac applications. Anyone has the same experience and how to go around it? Thank you.

  • Can not copy all of the content of Card in Address Book

    Why can you no longer select all of the content of a card in your address book to copy/paste into a document in Pages? The new version does not let you select-all and copy the content of a card in the address book. You have to select each individual line? Anyone find a work around? Another problem with the new operating system.

    I didn't see Andrew's post before I started working on the Service option. I fleshed out some things and came up with this:
    If you make it a service, you have to choose the type of data the service collects. Text seemed to work the best, but you had to right-click on some text in the card. In the workflow, you had to do something with the text or it would fail. I tried 'no input' as the service data type, but then you couldn't actually get the service to show up in the contextual menu.
    However, you can assign it a shortcut in the keyboard system prefs. I assigned the workflow cmd+shift-C. This works out fine. The workflow runs and copies the contact info to the clipboard.
    You can set up the Get Contact Information to collect whatever data you want. If you wanted to choose the type of data each time, you could set the options of that action to Show this action when workflow runs.
    To summarize the workflow:
    New Automator Service
    No Input in Address Book
    Get selected Address Book People
    Get Contact Information
    Copy to Clipboard
    Save this and then go into Keyboard System Prefs, Keyboard Shortcuts, Services, and set a shortcut for your new service.

  • Can not copy text from AI CC or AI6 in to the file name

    I have an AI file with 80+ UPC codes that I need to separate in to individual files. Each UPC has a descriptor but when I copy the text and then try to paste it as file name it will not paste. I use this same process regularly in InDesign when I design print ads. Each print ad has a unique item number that prints with the copyright line so I simply copy and paste that information when I do the save.
    Under File Handling and Clipboard both PDF and AICB are on. I've tried this in AICC and AICS6. I also tried different files. Same issue. Any suggestions? I really don't want to have to type 80 some descriptions which are very lengthy. 

    I can not copy the text from Illustrator in to any OS X application/function (filename, Mail, Text Edit, ect). I can copy in to InDesign, Photoshop, Flash, and other other Adobe product. I can copy in to Word as well. I guess my work around will be Word.
    And the opposite is true. I can copy text from any other Adobe application to any OS X application/function with no issues.
    I guess my work around will be to OCR the text from Acrobat and open in Word. The descriptors have to be 100% accurate and some of them are pretty long.

  • I find that I can no longer copy text to the clipboard.

    Why can I no longer copy text to my clipboard?

    Here is a little more information.  Last week everything worked fine.  I opened the same document yesterday and tried to copy some text to the clipboard and now I get an error message saying "can not copy to clipboard, internal error.  I also find that pdf files from the internet will not load and all I get is a small black x box in the upper left corner of the screen.  Went through the steps in control panel and adobe is enabled.

  • I have followed the directions given and still can not copy and paste, how can I fix this?

    I am trying to use the copy and paste function on a website and I get a message window that states that firefox does not allow cut/copy/paste. I followed the link for help and created the js. text file like instructed with the website's URL. I still can not copy and paste. I can copy and paste on this website with internet explorer, but not with firefox. I can not perform all the website functions with the internet explorer brower and switching back and forth from browser to browser is very time consuming and a hassle. Please help me solve this issue.

    Try this using extension - Allow Clipboard Helper - it makes that a lot easier to do and lessens the incidence of user error. <br />

    I have protected pdf files. You can not copy things, but it is allowed to print. In the menu of the pdf it says you are allowed to print. I already printed lots of times the document. But today there is an error "The printer is not admittet to print these pdf". Its new. Theres no problem with the printer. I can print word documents, internet pages etc. But today I can not print anymore my pdf document, although printing is allowed and only copying is forbidden.
    How to solve the problem with the pdf?
    Thank you.

    Hi Hans,
    There seems to be other restrictions in the document that's not allowing it to print.
    Would it be possible to share the document with me so that I can have a look?

  • Can not copy any file or empty the trash

    Hello,
    I'm using a Macbook (white) with OSX 10.6.4 and am having an extremely annoying problem which has three symptoms:
    1. I *can not empty the trash* (safely or not) at all.
    2. I *can not copy any file*, anywhere.
    3. I *can not move anything to the "Applications"* folder.
    I try restarting the computer, repairing the permissions, running the latest version of Onyx and so on, but nothing works. I always get the following error message (when copying a file or emptying the trash)
    "The operation can't be completed because you don't have the permission to access some of the items".
    And this even though I repaired the permissions three times today.
    To be honest, this makes my Mac pretty useless, and is very frustrating.
    Can anybody help? I've browsed a lot of other threads about this, tried everything, but to no avail.
    Come on, this is my first Mac, don't tell me I have to reinstall the OS from zero, Windows-style.

    Those are the normal permissions but if you are logged in as admin, hit the unlock button and enter your password they should no longer be greyed out.
    You can try chmoding them from root through the terminal if you are up for it. I'd also try booting up in SafeMode and seeing if that allows access.

  • I can not copy the DVDs that I made with iDVD

    I have a strange problem: I can not copy from a DVD that I made with iDVD (my footage, nothing with copyright). When I try to make a copy from the first DVD that I burned I receive the message that i do not have enough privieges. I checked the "Get information" tabs and I see at the end "Only read" (not copy). This was the 1st dvd that I burned with my new G4 with superdrive.
    Any idea? Thanks for the help in advance

  • I get "an error has occured" when trying to download from the AppStore.  I can not re-download as the button is not active.

    I encountered the response "an error has occured" when I downloaded Maverick X from the App Store.  I can not try to re-download as the download button is not active.  I have tried rebooting and to get the download from apple.com but it keeps redirecting to the App Store.
    Suggestions?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • This iphone can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install the 64bit version of itunes

    This iphone can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install the 64bit version of itunes
    I keep getting the above error everytime I plug in my iphone.
    I am not daft, I do have the 64bit version of iTunes installed already. When I installed itunes 10.5 and more recently 10.5.1 I got an error message that rolls back a section of the installation (The updater I think) before finishing off installing iTunes.
    After the installation iTunes will work normally apart from when I try to connect a device. At which point I get the title error message and I can not sync my phone.
    It's probably down to Itunes not installing properly however no matter what I try I can not sort the problem out. I've tried uninstalling all apple programmes followed by a registry clean, then reinstall. I've tried the same again but in a specific order. I've tried repairing iTunes, repairing the updater etc etc. Nothing seems to work. I'm out of ideas.
    Has anybody had this problem? Please can somebody tell me how to fix it!
    Getting an iPad this Christmas and if I can't sync that up to my PC I may just have to go over to ANDROID!!!

    Is there a way to install this on its own?
    Yeah, let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunes64Setup.exe installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunes64Setup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunes64Setup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunes64Setup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does an iTunes install go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • The iPod can not be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to.

    I try several time to send my song list from libraly to iPod. But it's show me that " The iPod can not be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to. "
    About this problem i try to do manythings follow some reply for advice me. but i still got problem. and i try to check something in my PC and found something wrong. i go to properties of disk drive and go to hard ware that show me all hard drive i have include Apple iPod USB Device. i go to properties for check it and see
    Device status :
    No driver are installed for this device
    Device usage :
    Use this device (enable)
    i'm not sure that because of this problem? if yes, how to do? because i do manythings such as use 5 R's and program reset utility. But i still got this problem. Help me plz.

    Sorry to see your having these issues Jihant. Posted below I have some links that may assist you with your troubleshooting steps.
    One of the first things you may want to look at is
    1. Download and Install latest iTunes Software. You should have iTunes 7.2
    2. You stated earlier you did the 5 Rs. So you have done a Reset and Restore. I would give it one more shot after you upgraded iTunes as needed.
    If this still does not resolve the issue. Try copying songs over 1 at a time. Do not copy over a playlist. Then try a new play list all together. Create a new playlist.
    You can also take a CD you may have and put import songs into iTunes then see if those songs will copy over.
    You may also create a new user and open up iTunes in a new user and import a cd with some songs and see if the same issue occurs.
    You can also try
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305136
    And if this still does not work for you. You may want to try another computer.
    or if the above article does not resolve the issue
