Can't cut and paste from an Open Office document to my email

I'm trying to cut and paste a document in Open Office into the body of an email. I have Firefox 26.0 and Windows 8.

Thank you very much for your help but it didn't work. After I copied my text and switched to my email in Firefox, there was no option to choose "paste" into the body of the email. Could it be that this is because I'm using Open Office for word processing instead of Microsoft? I'm a very LOW teach guy!

    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.

  • Can't cut and paste from iPhoto

    I am trying to remove photos from my iPhoto library and paste them on a external hard drive. I select, cut and then click on the hard drive window and try to paste.  If I do this with just a few photos (10 or less), it always works.  If I try to do this with several hundred photos it rarely works.  I can cut them from iPhoto, but can not paste to the hard drive.  The "paste XXX items" button does not come to life.
    Mac info: OSX, version 10.8.5, 3.2 GHz Intel Core 13, 4GD 1333MHz RAM.
    iPhoto info: iPhoto 11, version 9.4.3
    Hard drive: LaCie 1TB

    The only reason I am trying to reduce the photos in the iPhoto library on my Mac, is I have been having problems using iPhoto (freezes up, has trouble saving changes…).  People have told me that maybe I have too many photos (around 25K) and if I move some to an external drive it would help.  Will this help?  Is having 25K photos really a problem?
    I read the "Exporting From iPhoto" link and it looks like it will allow me to export the photos.  Thanks.

  • Ver 10 automatically updated from earlier Ver (I had unchecked auto update). After update I can't cut and paste from one tab to another when doing searches.

    using the mouse or even using ctrl "c" and ctrl "v" do not work, but does work in other apps i.e. word, excel etc.

  • 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.

    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,

  • I can't cut and paste any images into apple mail

    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.
    I am using a gmail pop account and firefox as my primary browser. It took me a few times to figure this out as the image appears to be attached in my mail, but is removed when I send, such that if I have text and an image in an email the recipient receives only the text. Before I hit send I can see both the text and the image.
    I have tried starting again in safe mode and repairing permissions. That has not helped. I can login to my gmail regularly and cut and paste images with no problem.
    This is exceptionally frustrating.

  • Cut and paste from Word into Mail

    I have an earlier post where I thought I had solved this problem, but now it's back with a twist:
    I can cut and paste from Word, but after a few cut and pastes, it seems as if I can only paste the last successful section of text: copying new text from word seems to work, but when pasting into Mail, only the previous section of cut and pasted text appears.
    I have checked the preferences within Mail, and they are set for plain text... so there should be no problem, yes?
    I also tried quitting and then restarting Mail, but had the same problem...
    Any advice?

    Thanks, aqua*star -
    I just checked the "archiving" and "back-up" suggestions in the Mail "Help" window and got the following info:
    Mail preferences and messages
    Your Mail accounts, rules, signatures, and Smart Mailboxes preference settings can easily be backed up. Tip: All Mail-related preference files should be backed up or restored as a group.
    To back up:
    Note: These steps back up Mail preferences, but do not back up Mail messages (emails), although you can do that with the .Mac Backup utility. See below if you want to manually back up Mail messages (mailboxes).
    Create a uniquely-named folder on your desktop (or other favorite location). For example, you might call it "Mail Prefs Backups May152005" (adding a date is a good idea).
    Quit Mail if it's running.
    In the Finder choose Home from the Go menu.
    Open the Library folder.
    Open the Preferences folder.
    Copy the "com.apple.mail.plist" file to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the file. Don't remove the original file from its current location (this file contains your Mail accounts information).
    Close the Preferences folder.
    Open the Mail folder.
    Copy the "MessageRules.plist" file to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the file (this file contains your Mail rules).
    Copy the "SmartMailboxes.plist" file to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the file (you guessed it, this file contains Smart Mailboxes information).
    Finally, copy the Signatures folder to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the folder. (Your custom signatures, if you use them, are stored here.)
    To restore: Just move all of the copies of the files and folders from your uniquely-named folder to the original locations from which they came, as listed above.
    It looks like I can save and restore the Mail rules separately from the plist...

    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.

  • Cannot Cut and Paste From Excel

    I am trying to simply cut and paste from Excel into the Xcelsius spreadsheet. Even though the user manual indicates to copy from Excel and right click where you want to paste, the Paste and Paste Special functions are greyed out. It is almost like the cells are locked or protected somehow. I selected Formal Cells -> Protection and unlocked the cells but still nothing. Any ideas? Excel 2007

    Hi,
    It seems your workbook was locked. Try the following... it might help you.
    I know some of you out there have hit this problem in the past and now we have a workaround...
    If you try to add/remove/modify a worksheet in the Xcelsius embedded Excel and you can't do it.
    1. Start to unprotect the workbook:
    Office 2007 (Ribbon menu in Xcelsius or Excel). Select Review > Protect Workbook > Protect Structure and Windows.
    Office 2003 (menu only in Excel). Select Tools > Protection > Unprotect Workbook.
    2. You will be prompted for a password.
    3. This is the password (the O is an uppercase o):
    fazOh1+u
    4. Click OK and the spreadsheet should no longer be locked.
    Let me know if still your problem exists.
    Regards,
    Anjani Kumar C.A.

  • 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.
