Can't copy/paste in google docs

Hello,
I'm using a Mac and I can't use the copy / paste function in google docs with firefox. I know they wan't to prevent websites to do some damage but I need this function and it would be a great help if firefox / mozilla would give the option to change this behaviour.
Any idea how I could achieve this?
Otherwise I would have to switch back to Chrome which I wouldn't do gladly.
Thanks!

Please make sure that all of your extensions are up to date, this might be affecting the functionality in drive.
If not, try Safe Mode: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]

  • Trouble copy/pasting from Google Docs

    Using Safari 5.1.7 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Having lots of trouble trying to paste text into (or copying out of) a Google Doc text window.
    Just wondering if it's just me, or a known problem with this version of Safari & Google Docs. Are there any special things I need to do?

    Try emptying the Safari cache more often. From your Safari menu bar top of your screen click Safari > Empty Cache
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    And make sure Java is enabled in Safari > Preferences > Security
    If emptying the cache didn't help, try deleting Google cookies
    Back to Safari > Preferences > Security
    Click Show Cookies
    Type    google   in the search field on the right then click Remove All > Done
    Quit then relaunch Safari. Try Google Docs.

  • Copying cells from Google Docs to Numbers doesn't work

    I've tried multiple times now to copy data from a Google Docs into a Numbers spreadsheet, to no avail. I'm trying to copy two columns of data, about 150 rows long, and instead of it pasting into two columns, it pastes into a single column in Numbers.
    Why is this? Is there a setting that affects how data is pasted into Numbers that I can change?

    BH,
    It seems that Google and Apple are still on the "outs". I found that if you Paste the Google Docs cell range to LibreOffice, and then Copy and Paste to Numbers, all is well.
    Don't try copying entire columns in Google Docs or LibreOffice, instead specify the range explicitly.

  • Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?

    Message title says it: Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?
    I can't find anything in the Knowledge Base that says these two options no longer work or still do.
    I do not have a system capable of running Lion, but I need to know the answer nonetheless.

    Gee, I don't know: "paste attachments mail Lion"? ;-)
    One further question, if I may: in Panther (which is where I've aggregated nearly 7 years of mail), if you copy more than one file in the Finder, switch to Mail, and paste the files into a new message, only the file names paste in. If you copy one file and paste it into a Mail message, you get the file, not just the name. Is that still true, or has that (IMHO) bug been fixed since 10.3.9?

  • How can I copy/paste text from one page to another?

    I feel like I am taking crazy pills... is there really no way to copy a text box (or group) from one page to another while creating books in Aperture 3?  Lets say I have my entire book laid out and I want to add one paragraph at the end on one page which will push text and photos down a half page or so... in most programs for the last decade or so they added really cool functionality... cut/paste...  It seems like the apple developers are aware of it because they are in the context menus but they don't work on text, only photo boxes.  Additionally, you can copy/paste text but it erases all formatting.
    Seriously, am I missing something?  I have trouble believing that they can't include this function.
    Anyone else have this issue?

    Update... it seems to only happen with text boxes which I create.  So when I try an existing theme I can cut/copy/paste just fine, but in that same theme if you edit the layout and add a new text box, I can't copy paste it anywhere... the options are in the menu but nothing happens.
    Thoughts? Solutions?
    I am running 3.4.3 on a MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.3

  • How can I copy/paste without copying the formatting?

    How can I copy/paste without copying the formatting? For example, if I copy a sentence from a website and paste it on text editing program, it copies all the formatting as well. How can I turn that off?

    There is an app called "No Formatting" in the App Store. It is simple and works perfectly - it strips formatting from paste (Ctr-V). I needed it for Word and Excel, which don't have keyboard shortcuts for this. It can be toggled on and off from the Menu Bar.

  • How can i Copy paste from e-mail to Notebook or textbook

    How can i Copy pasta from some Content of e-mail to the notepad or textbook or word?

    hold your finger down in the body of the mail - the part you want to copy. a blue box will comeup and offer to 'select/select all' or something like that. choose the appropriate choice. If you only want part of it that bubble will have two handles that allow you to drag out the selection box.
    then hold your finger down again and another bubble will come up offering to cut/copy the words. choose copy
    then navigate to your notes app (not sure about the textbook, depends on whether or not it support it) and hold your finger down in an empty text area. you'll get another blue bubble offering to paste it. choose that and the words should appear. then save as appropriate.

  • How can I copy&paste a keyframe?

    How can I copy&paste a keyframe?
    Imagine : I decide, after having animated a scene, to freeze un object for a few seconds.
    I can, of course, create a new keyframe and digit the same size and position (but it takes a while).
    isn't there a simpler way : copy&paste a keyframe?

  • Can't access gmail and google docs

    i've posted about this before.
    still can't access gmail or google docs (or google reader) over my airport extreme n.
    all works fine on the desktop machine through the ethernet port on the base station.
    any advice?

    If it works through the Ethernet port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) it probably has nothing to do with the AEBS. There must be something about the configuration of the computer connecting wirelessly.

  • Can't copy/paste or move objects.

    Entire Edit Menu, other than "Clear" is grayed out – can't copy/paste anything. Also can't move objects with direct selection tool. Reset preferences and still have same problem. Ideas?
    Mac 10.6.8, CS5.5
    Thanks!

    I just had this problem as well. I'm using InDesign CS6, MacOS 10.6.8 where my cut & Paste grayed out and after I made any kind of object. Even though I could select it, I couldn't drag it/move it UNLESS I used my arrow keys to do so. I tried deleting my prefs and restarting InDesign multiple times as listed above but after a full shut down and restart of my machine I finally saw operations return to normal.
    Just an FYI.

    On a couple .mov files, when I open them, my browser opens also. As for the .mov files, I can't copy, paste, export etc.
    Can anyone explain this, and is there a way to resolve the browser and other issues?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    thanks Terence,
    So I went into Iphoto, selected the Trimmed Movie and selected. PHOTOS, revert to Original.
    Now I can COPY and PASTE the MOVIE from Iphoto to a normal Folder.
    I then opened the original .mov file in Quicktime and trim the movie.  I then go to close and save
    "The Operation could not be completed, an unknown error occured"

  • Can't copy, paste or save

    I can't copy, paste or save in Dreamweaver 5.5.  This is frustrating because about 3 months ago CS2 Design Suite crashed and I can't reinstall it.  Please help!  I'm getting no support.

    What is the error message you're getting when you try to copy/ paste/ save? Is this happening only for 1 file or all files?
    Can you open up Adobe Application Manager and check to see if you have any updates available for DW and ensure its up-to-date?
