Can not cut and paste in Tiger 10.4.4

I know this is weird but it is true. I have a user who use to cut and paste all the time and now it will not let her. It is almost like the clipord is off or somthing. I copied something and there was not a paste command. I even did command c and command v and nothing.
Confused.
Thanks for your time.

Has a keybord shortcut been changed in the Keyboard & Mouse System Preferences pane?

  • Can not cut and paste in 10.5.5 in on user profile but other users fine

    Hi, all,
    We have an 24" iMac running 10.5.5 (with all latest updates). Pretty simple machine, nothing fancy on it, just simple machine. One of the 5 users on it can not cut and paste, but other users can just fine. I can not find anything much on this. Any & all advice is most appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I very much appreciate the suggestion, I do, and please do not take this the wrong way, thank you again for taking the time to try to help me, but ..... I am not going to take a bazooka to this ant hill on this specific issue for this user.
    We're talking about hours & ours of work, maybe more, to find out why cut-n-paste (ie: Apple+C and Apple-V) do not work & that ought to be findable & correctable as a single issue with a single action.
    If it is not, then I guess that is another issue isnt it, and I'll be taking that up with the manufacturer.
    I continue to look for the "right"(tm) solution.
    +note to "discussions site webmaster": why would this form as the poster for the OS & model & details of their post again (ie: when theyre replying here, to someone else, as I am here). Do we think that those items have changed in the last hour since the first post? Not only does it ask again, youre required to answer them again since they dont "remember" the poster's first answers, since it would confuse everyone to not answer, since the defaults are incorrect (ie: the defaults arent even the latest stable software versions).+

  • Safari Can't Cut and Paste Pics

    Hi All
    I can not cut and paste pics to Delphi forums. Others have the same problem, Some have tried Firefox but no luck.
    Seems that you can only do it with Internet Explorer. Icckk
    Anybody know how to fix this problem?
    Thanks in advance

    HI,
    One possibility. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    At the bottom of that pane select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now from the Safari Menu Bar click Develop / User Agent / Internet Explorer. Try 8, 7, or 6.
    No guantee but it's worth a try.
    The next time you relaunch Safari it will default to Safari 5.

  • I have a macbook air and I can't cut and paste in itunes.  The right clic does not work. How can I work this out?

    I have a macbook air and I can't cut and paste in itunes.  The right clic does not work. How can I work this out?

    Great tip Stephen!!
    I was so frustated from this issue that I used to use Windows iTunes for mass editing info, adding Lyrics etc and then transfering songs to Mac. This tip has alleviated my pain!!
    Thanks for the tip. This question should be tagged as answered.

  • I can't cut and paste and the mac doesn't see me as the admin

    Okay so here are my current frustrations and issues:
    1. I can't cut and paste anything! Not from emails, not in documents, nothing.
    2. I went to make changes in the utilities and when I started, under my name, it said admin and now it says standard and the computer won't allow me to make changes. I try to enter my name and password and the computer says I am not the admin.
    3. I can't delete the "test" user and "guest" user because apparantly there is no admin.
    I have rebooted using the install disk and I was able to change the passwords but I still can't get in as the admin.
    Is there a way to override this before I a) pull out all of my hair, my husbands hair and the hair belonging to my cat and/or b) before I throw the machine out the window and then have another frustration that the unit is not working?! 

    First back up all your data, if you haven't done so already.
    Boot in safe mode (shift key down at startup) and check to see whether the clipboard now works. If it does, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and try again.
    Next, boot in single-user mode by restarting the computer and holding down the Command and S keys at the chime, until you see white text on a black background. Wait for the text to stop scrolling, then follow the instructions on the screen, which will tell you run the fsck and mount commands. Be very, very careful to type the commands correctly. After you enter the mount command, please enter this:
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    Then this:
    exit
    The Mac will now boot up as if for the first time. Go through the setup procedure to create a new admin account with the same name and password as the old one.

  • 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 />

  • Can i cut and paste a gb track?

    can i cut and paste a gb track? i'm recording a one on one interview. i will export to itunes and burn a cd. but i was told cd will not exceed 80 minutes. if interview goes longer than 80 minutes, can i cut and paste from one track to burn two cds? i have gb2.

    To make sure you have the terms correct, you can't get a "track" you can cut/copy/paste "regions" within a track. So yes, you can do what you want.

  • Can I cut and paste directions obtained via maps into a word doc or something so I can see them if I can't connect to the internet

    Can I cut and paste directions form maps into a word doc - or save it somewhere on my iPad so I can access it when I can't access the Internet?

    Take a screen short.
    Simultaneously press the Sleep and Home button. You will notice an on-screen flash. If you have sound enabled, you will hear a camera click.
    The screen shot is stored in Camera Roll.

    I am in the process of preparing to test a sample from your brand and model camera in my Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 on Windows 7 64 bit. I will have the results probably tomorrow morning.
    For now I just want to put you through the drill that I do for anyone who says he/she is using Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1.
    1. Are you working from the 8.0/8.0.1 Update of the program?
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4653
    2. Do you have the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalyzer features turned OFF.
    For Background Rendering option. See Edit Menu/Preferences/General.
    For AutoAnalyzer option. Click on Organizer in the row below the blue active Organize header in order to open the Elements Organizer. In the Elements Organizer workspace, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalyzer Options and disable all the AutoAnalzyer options. To return to the Premiere Elements workspace from the Elements Organizer workspace, in the Elements Organizer workspace, go to File Menu/Exit.
    Is your computer optimized in spite of the fact that  you have a high end laptop? I presumed so but always go to verify, no pile ups of preview files, conformed video and audio files et al.
    Looking at the properties of your source media, I see:
    video compression = MPEG1
    audio compression = MPEG-Layer1 (.mp2)
    Frame Size = 640 x 480 (4:3)
    Pixel Aspect Ratio = 1.0
    Frame Rate = 30 progressive frames per second
    With properties like those you are sure to get a red line over that content since there is no project preset with that description.
    But, your choice of the default NTSC DV Standard would have been mine also.
    I am heading to try to get a quick look at the behavior of the sample video here in my Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1.
    To be continued.

  • How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

    How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

    You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    volume controls issues are windows, not firefox.

  • 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.

    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
