Can't copy and paste between latest firefox and word 2007

I just posted about this a few minutes ago but forgot to mention it happens in both directions. I can't copy and paste anything from a screen in the latest firefox into word, and any links I copy from word do not copy into the address bar in firefox. Can someone help? I have Windows 7. This has been happening a couple of weeks.

Do you have the clipboard enabled or have a locked or user.js file?

    Thanks, Patricia

    you should try the copy+paste tool CLICKTO! (It's for free!)
    That tool will post your link to FB in just one click. All you have to do is to press STRG+C after marking your desired link. Clickto will show you the opportunities options for the paste action. Choose FB and CLICKTO will post you link to FB automatically. Take a look how it works here: [http://www.clicktoapp.com]

  • I can't copy and paste from Word to the Internet (Firefox or Chrome), but I can copy and paste from Internet to Word

    I suddenly can't copy and paste text from Word to the internet (Firefox or Chrome, email or other websites), but I can do the reverse. Any ideas? Copy and paste works between Word docs, and it works between internet sites (e.g., web page to email), just not from Word to the internet. Please help. I need to copy and paste my resume for an online job application.

    There are a range of different kinds of forms. For example, this site uses very simple controls that don't automatically convert Word's formatting to an online format. The site where you are trying to paste your resume probably works differently.
    What methods have you tried using to paste? Typically one of these will work:
    * Ctrl+v
    * right-click > Paste
    * Edit > Paste (from the menu)
    Some sites offer their own buttons to paste, but for security/privacy reasons, Firefox usually disables those.

  • Since the last firefox update I cannot use Adobe pdf doc viewer nor can I copy and paste in my browser. I am not happy about this

    Since the last firefox upgrade my copy/paste and adobe doc viewer functionality is gone.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == last upgrade

    That is a bug in Firefox.
    You can set the Boolean pref <b>dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page or alternatively hold down Ctrl+C keys until the translate selection disappears that text in the left input text area start flashing.

  • CS 5.5 Mac - can't copy and paste between layers

    I'm running CS 5.5 on Mac (OS 10.7.4).  Try as I might, I can't copy and paste between layers.
    Create new document
    Create new layer (= 2)
    With first layer active, create text box and type randomly
    Swtich to pointer, select text box, Copy
    With second layer active, Paste
    Error message onscreen:
    <<Cannot paste or place onto locked or hidden layers.  Do you want to unlock and show all affected layers in order to paste?>>
    If click OK, the source layer (layer 1) becomes active again, and my text box gets pasted in.  The destination layer (layer 2) is untouched.
    Both layers are visible, neither of them are locked.
    Any ideas much appreciated!

    It sounds like you need to trash your prefs. See Replace Your Preferences
    And it shouldn't throw that message, but also check to be sure that Paste Remembers Layers isn't checked in the Layers panel flyout menu or you'll never get anything to paste from one layer to another.

  • Can't copy and paste in illustrator

    For some reason, I can't copy and paste in Illustrator CC. Even choosing copy straight out of the edit menu doesn't work. Is anyone else having this problem? I tried closing out the program and reopening it, but it still doesn't work.

    I'm having the same problem, but I'm trying to copy between Illustrator and Photoshop. I've done all the usual fixes-trashed prefs in both AICC and PSCC, restarted the computer, even downloaded and installed the latest updates to both apps. Copy and paste works within AI and within PS, so it appears to be a problem with the clipboard, but only the clipboard as it serves those two apps. Copy and paste works fine for Pages, MS Word and everything else. What is a clipboard enhancement, and what does its presence or absence indicate? What would it be called? I'll check the Activity Monitor, see if I can find it, then zap the P-RAM. If that doesn't work I'll have to call CC help. Any ideas?

  • I no longer see the URL of any website so can't copy and past URLs into any emails, etc. Is there some setting to make URLs visible? when I updated, the URLs disappeared. I'm on a MacBook.

    When I updated to the latest version of Firefox, the URLs disappeared so they are no longer visible at the top of the Firefox page. I can enter sites, but I can't copy and past the URLs anymore. Why can't I see the http://... info anymore? Is there some setting I changed or what might be the problem?
    thanks.

    Try this:
    Click on the orange Firefox tab > Highlight Options > click Navigation Toolbar.

  • I installed Windows 7 in my Macbook pro, I can access Windows data in Mac, but I can't copy and delete it. and the same case while i am working in Windows. Could you please guide me if there is any solution, where I could copy/paste/delete my data.

    OS X can natively read NTFS of Windows, but not write to it.
    Windows can't read or write to HFS+ of OSX, and that's a good thing from a security standpoint.
    Ideally if you share files between operating systems you should have a FAT/MSDOS formated USB key or hard drive. (exFAT external drive if any of your files are over 4GB in size) both these formats are universal for OS X or Windows.
    If you install software into Windows and OS X to read each others formats, then you have to pay to update/upgrade it deal with headaches.
    If you swtich between Windows and OS X a lot, don't need full hardware performance for Windows, you may consider installing virtual machine software like VMFusion or Parallels which can take a copy of your Windows in Bootcamp and place it into OS X as a file then run that copy of Windows in a window in OS X like so.
    Advantage here is you run most of your light weight Windows programs like this at the same time as OS X.
    Benefit is you can run just about any Windows or Linux version and OSX server editions (not client versions)
    Bootcamp only allows Windows 7, that's it now.
    You'll also be interested in two fre pieces of software, Carbon Copy Cloner and Winclone on macupdate.com.
    CCC clones OS X partition and Winclone clones the Bootcamp partition. Valuable for you.
    Good Luck

  • 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't copy and paste paragraphs into Blogger

    Hi all,
    I don't know why Safari can't copy and paste paragraphs of text into Blogspot.com posts, but I just can't seem to get it to work. It drops the text below the entry field every time, even if I have the cursor flashing in the blogger typing box (composer). It's just not working. Any ideas?
    Also, wondering if Safari has any media download functions like Firefox's "Unplug"?

    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
