Can't can't paste images into PS CS5

So this problem seems to have randomly popped up and I don't know the cause or how to fix it. I have lost the ability to paste bitmap images from external applications like web browsers, specifically Chrome, Firefox or IE. I am reading all over the place that people are having issues with copy/paste but there doesn't seem to be any definitive solutions or situations just like mine.
When I copy an image, now matter how (ctrl-v, right-click, copy image, Edit>Copy etc etc), i am not able to paste that image into an open photoshop document. Paste options are grayed out in Edit menu. Edit>Purge>Clipboard is grayed out. Ctrl-V does nothing at all. It's like photoshop isn't reading my computers clipboard. Format also does not seems to be an issue
Things seem to be fine with copying and pasting within Photoshop itself, and from other adobe apps like Illustrator CS5 to Photoshop CS5 works fine as well. I realize that I can save images to my file system and then open or place in Photoshop, but that's not my normal workflow and eats up time.
This is running in Windows 7 64-bit. Also tried clearing my preferences when opening Photoshop, and that didn't help at all. Also "Export Clipboard" is enabled in General Prefs.
I should also mention copy/paste from external applications into Photoshop CS3 is working just fine.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

yes, dived in deeply to the problems that other people were having and unfortunately they aren't quite like mine. seems to be more common to not be able to copy/paste between adobe programs. and the typical response has no solution and that is just some kind of unaddressed intermittent bug.
and yes, all plugins disabled. bummer.

Can't paste image into email

Since the 4.2 upgrade I can't paste an image in an email!
Anyone figure out why and or how to?

Holding or double tap doesn't work anymore and yes I am able to paste text. In the meantime I have discovered how to paste an image into an email reply.
I used to hold my finger on the image and copy it to the clipboard and then go to the email reply and paste it.
What I have discovered is if I copy the image to the clipboard by holding my finger on the image to get the copy option, that will not work when I try to paste the image to an email reply, but if I use the following method to copy the image it will work.
I open the saved images, tap the arrow in the upper right toolbar, tap the image I want to copy and then tap copy on the left side of the top toolbar, it will paste to the email reply.

Suddenly can't paste image into email?

As of a few days ago, I can no longer copy and paste an image into my email body. Was there some upgrade or did I accidentally hit some setting that I need to fix. Really strange?

OK, that was a bit odd.
Initially, it refused to drag-and-drop.
I tried copy-and-paste, which worked. I then repeated drag-and-drop, which worked now.
Insert via the menu also worked.
Are you copy-and-pasting directly into an empty message, or have you already started typing? Some users complain that toolbar functions are greyed out, but then those functions are greyed, deliberately, until there is some text to work with. I wonder if the cursor has to be at a defined insertion point for copy and paste to work. It may need a paragraph to anchor to, and a blank document may not offer a workable anchor point.
It's been mentioned that some aspects of the composition window have been changed; it was suggested that drag and drop of text was new (though I was under the impression it had been there forever! ;-) ) Such changes may affect other actions such as pasting from the clipboard.
So, in a roundabout way, I have to say the functionality is still there (or it is in my installation, at the least) but maybe the trigger conditions have changed.

Can't Copy Image Into Textedit

This might be a coincidence but then maybe not... ever since I've installed MacOSX 8, I can no longer drag images or copy/paste images into TextEdit docs.
Is there a TextEdit section here?
Anyway,
Logging in as a different user does not help.
Trashing the TextEdit plist does not solve the problem...
Any ides on what could be preventing this? Thanks!

And 'deny network-outbound' messages. Sometimes I was dragging an image off a web page into a textedit to troubleshoot and sometimes from an image all ready on my computer.

Copy/paste images into pages within sharepoint online?

There seems to be a workaround to use RadControl for this. (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/655c080f-ec1e-4e69-b082-d35973ee426a/copy-and-paste-for-images-in-sharepoint)
However, I don't think we can deploy custom app/binaries onto sharepoint online.
Is there other way we can easily copy/past images into pages?
Thx

you cannot paste the images into sharepoint pages directly, Images cannot be rendered as HTML so cannot be pasted.
You have to upload the images into SharePoint then insert it on the pages /places you want.
or other work aorund buy the 3rd party tool which you mentioned.

Hi garynguyen,
premise doesn't provide this kind of oob function to copy and paste the image into SharePoint page directly, you may develop your own solution (or use third party solution) to ahcieve this goal.
For Office365 SharePoint online question, we have a dedicated forum as below, you can post there for a better assistance with more experts regarding this Office365 issue.

IDCS3 - Paste image into new frame with same cropping offsets?

Anyone know if there's a better way do to this? It used to work in CS2, and (I know this comment won't be popular, but since half the studio I'm trying to convert brings up this point, I'll pass it along <G>), it's always worked in Quark. <G> http://indesignsecrets.com/paste-image-into-new-frame-with-same-cropping-offsets.php Be nice to get this to work without having to jump through hoops. (And please, please don't tell me I need to update to CS4 to get this basic functionality BACK). k.

Thanks, Rob. Unfortunately, I got a new error with the latest script you posted (sorry--not trying to be a pest!!). It says,
Apple Script Error!
Error Number: -2753
Error String: The variable myRend is not defined.
(One thing that's different is I'm working on a different machine than I was the first day I posted about this, but I'm using the exact same version of InDesign. Would this make a difference? I forgot to copy the original script file from the other computer before coming to work today... If I need to do that, I can.)
Thanks for your continued help!

Cannot paste image into Facebook's comment box

I can do that in Chrome but not in Firefox. How can I fix this?

Thanks. But that didn't help. I had up-to-date flash already. And while I can't paste image in Firefox, I can in Chrome (with the same version of flash.)
Btw, just to make sure, I wasn't talking about "uploading photo" to Facebook, but "pasting image into comment or chat box"

Pasted image into gmail disappears when using Safari

Pasted image into gmail disappears when using Safari
I recently upgraded to Mavericks (after having a lot of seemingly unrelated trouble with my Macbook Pro (early 2011))
Since then, when I create a new message in gmail, and paste in a screen shot (captured with command-control-shift-4), the image shows up nicely. But after I hit send, the image disappears. It doesn't show up to the recipient, and when I look at my sent mail, it doesn't show up there either. There's nothing, no icon showing where the image should be, just empty space in the message. This seems to happen in Safari, but seems to works fine when creating the message in Chrome. (please, restrain yourself from telling me "Duh. Use Chrome." I know it's tempting, but my computer has some issues and Chrome doesn't always work.) If I create the same sort of message in Chrome, and then go to Safari gmail, I can see the image just fine. So it appears to be something about keeping the image attached to the content of the message while sending (vs. a viewing problem).
I know when Mavericks was installed, I had to install something in Safari for Adobe docs to show up again. Is there something I need to install so that images will stay attached to the content of gmail messages again?
Thanks

After you click Download (the attachment) from your Safari menu bar click Window / Downloads.
Right or control click the file in the Downloads window then click: Show in Finder
I'm not sure if you can designate another folder for downloading web based attachments to, however, instead of accessing your Gmail
account using Safari, you can set up the Gmail account from the Mail app on your hard drive. Mail preferences allow you to choose the
folder you want to use for downloaded files.
To add an account:
Choose File > Add Account or click the Add button in the Accounts pane of Mail preferences.
Enter information about the user.Mail searches for the information it needs to finish setting up your account. If it can’t find the information, continue to the next step.
Enter information about the incoming and outgoing mail servers, review the account summary, and then click Create.For information about options, click the Help button (looks like a question mark).If you don’t want the account to be active immediately, deselect the “Take account online” checkbox. You can take the account online later.
If you aren’t sure about the information to enter, contact your email service provider before you begin. When you talk with your provider, you can use the Mail settings “cheat sheet” available using the link below to record settings you might need to set up an account. If you’re switching from another application to Mail, use the cheat sheet to record information for each account you want to switch.

Pasting images into PDF

I downloaded Adobe Reader X for macs a couple days ago. I have not been able to paste any images into the pdf from the web. However, when I paste images into the pdf (while on the hand tool mode) the image pastes but the colors are inverted. Can someone please help?

You cannot edit PDFs with Adobe Reader. You need Acrobat.

Paste images into wiki pages

is it possible for a user to
paste images into SharePoint 2013 wiki pages while editing.
MP

there is no OOTB way to do this, you have to insert it from computer or sharepoint. SharePoint needs that image store into the images library.
other way is embed int the page using HTML tags but this is not recommended.

Can't put image into the body of Yahoo Email.

Although easily done using I.E or Outlook, any attempt to paste an image into the body of a Yahoo Mail results in nothing happening when using Firefox. I do NOT want to use I.E.
This is a major problem. Attachments are no solution. In many industries, including mine, we like to send flyers as images or IN-LINE documents via email.
Will Firefox / Mozilla address this issue?
Is there a solution already?

I have 2 FF windows open. One to view my picture and one with Yahoo mail. If I click and drag the picture into my Yahoo mail body, it works. Can't do copy/paste like in IE.

Since installing Firefox 3.6.9, can't insert images into my email.

Last Thursday, Firefox updated my system to 3.6.9. My email goes through Network Solutions. Now I cannot insert an image into the body of my email. I can still attach an image file to the email, but not make it show up in the body of the text.

Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
If it fails regardless, you can try changing the user agent like this:
#In the location bar at the top, type: '''about:config''' and hit Enter.
#In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following: '''general.useragent.override'''. This will display a blank page.
#Right click anywhere in the blank area and choose "New" and then "String". In the dialog box which appears, copy/paste '''general.useragent.override''' again and click OK. The dialog box will remain on screen, but you'll see that name appear above where it previously said "Enter Preference Name".
#Next, copy/paste the following: '''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0'''
#Click OK and then go to File | Exit. Restart Firefox again and see if it works.
#I've uploaded a screenshot for you to illustrate the steps above.
Hopefully, your uni's webmaster will update their site to work with Firefox 4.0 soon.

I can't paste text into info boxes anymore with the latest version of itunes

Ever since I downloaded the latest version of itunes (on Windows 7), I can no longer paste text into the info boxes when I edit song information. I can’t paste by right-clicking or Ctrl+V, this is driving me crazy because I’m trying to add info on a Russian artist with Cyrillic letters and I can’t do it! I didn’t buy the song from itunes so it can’t be issues with Copyrighting although the same thing happens with songs from the store and every other song in my library. I can paste text into the lyrics section but that’s it. I restarted my computer after reinstalling the latest versions of itunes and Firefox today hoping it would fix my problem but it didn’t. Is this happening to anyone else? I hope someone can help me! Oh and it isn’t just with Russian, I tried to paste English info just to see if it was a problem with recognizing Cyrillic and still nothing pastes, the boxes just stay blank.
Itunes is annoying me more than ever. With the constant updates you’d think they would be able to improve all bugs but once one problem is fixed another occurs and it’s so irritating because I couldn’t care less about how my library looks as long as everything is organized in a simple way and I can sync my ipod without spending forever on itunes re-editing stuff and readjusting to updated layout changes. Apple’s attempts at making things look “cool” isn’t worth the F-ing constant problems which matter more! Okay, rant over

With the latest version of iTunes, my library screen has changed completely and I no longer have a Summary tab to select manual syncing of my iPod when I plug it into my computer.
That would be Manually manage, not Manually syncing.
Click the drop down arrow at top left the Show menu.
Then iTunes menu View > Show sidebar.
Select the iPod then you can select the Summary tab.

Can't drag images into new album page

Just started using iWeb because it seems easy to produce good looking basic pages. I may be missing something obvious, but having trawled all through this forum and iWeb help, I can't work out why the album page won't accept images dragged from the iPhoto tab of the media browser.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for the prompt reply Mr Old Toad. In fact, despite the title of "Album Page" seeming to be self explanatory (usually the case with Mac software & why I love it so much) and the software instructions which say "Drag photo and movie pages here to make them accessible from one place", this time I have discovered by messing around that you have to add a "photos" page while the Album page is selected on the left. You then drag the required images into the photo page (not the album page). Each additional photo page added appears on the Album page as it is added.
One of the first methods I tried was to create an album in iPhoto and attempt to drag that into the album page. Didn't work, hence my request on this forum. So, looks like I answered my question myself. I still appreciate your diligent attention to this forum Mr Old Toad. I'm sure there will be a future problem that may not be so easily solved and that your or another's suggestion will come to the rescue.
Thanks
