Can't Paste Info From Safari 4 to Mail

I can select text in Safari 4 (the info shows up on the Clipboard) but I cannot paste directly into Mail with out first pasting it into a text editor. Nor can I drag and drop the text into Mail.
Any thoughts?

one of the many bugs in Safari 4. it's beta software after all. nothing to be done about it but wait for it to be fixed by Apple.

    You can boot the computer that you would like to get the file from into target disk mode.

  • 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?

  • HT4910 My iCal has frozen after I tried to paste info from an email into a reminder.  I get a "server reports an error" message with what I tried to paste in the box.  Calendar is frozen and will only close by forcing it.  Any help?

    My iCal has frozen after I tried to paste info from an email into a reminder.  I get a "server reports an error" message with what I tried to paste in the box.  Calendar is frozen and will only close by forcing it.  Any help?

    Did another window open with the pasted information?  If so, try hitting "enter/return" key and "delete" key at the same time.  That should get rid of the current action on the ical, the extra window should go bye-bye, and all should be fine with the world.

  • Help. Can't paste photos from my photos file

    I can not paste photos from my photos file. If I start a blank file I can paste anything photos want from the web in as many layers as I want. If I try to paste a photo from my own photos file it becomes the back ground by itself. I don't know how to stop this. Using photoshop elements 11. Thanks

    Thanks for trying to help. My photos are stored in my pictures folder in Windows. I don't want the photos as the background sometimes if I what to edit them and over lay parts of them on top of another photo.As it stands now I can only work with one of my photos at a time. If I paste them off the net I can stack them right up.

    No.
    If you aren't syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, and/or not syncing contacts over the air with an email account on your iPhone that supports this with a number of accounts that do which are free including a free Apple iCloud account, and your iPhone's backup is not being done wirelessly with a free Apple iCloud account and you don't have a backup for your iPhone on a computer, your contacts will be lost.

    Hello jo90733,
    I would recommend reinstalling Mountain Lion to replace the missing/damaged components of these applications. While the process shouldn't affect any data (images, music, etc) you have on the system, it's always a good idea to have a backup in place prior to reinstalling.
    OS X Mountain Lion: Back up your Mac
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11371
    OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10763
    Important: You need to be connected to the Internet to reinstall OS X.
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
    If you’re not connected to the Internet, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu (in the top-right corner of the screen).
    Select Reinstall OS X, and then click Continue.
    Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select a disk, select your current OS X disk (in most cases, it is the only one available).
    To start the installation, click Install.
    Cheers,
    Allen

  • Using mail on Ipad only a blanc window will be displayed. after 10 sec this window disapears and the windows with appicons are displayd. redirecting from  safari to other mail adress works witout problems. Known Problem?

    Using mail on Ipad only a blanc window will be displayed. After 10 sec the window is automatically closed and the app icon will be displayed.
    Redirecting from  safari to other mail adress works witout problems. Known Problem?

    Try to force quit your mail app. Double tap the home button. You'll see the app icons and previews on the screen. Scroll sideways if needed to bring the mail app up on the screen. Flick the preview up and off the screen to close the app. Tap on the home screen preview to exit the mode.
    Try to open your mail again and see if it works.

  • Is there a way to copy and paste info from an attachment on the ipad into a document or note?

    I sent myself an email with an attachment to my iPad.  I want to copy and paste the info from the attachment so I can have it accessible on the iPad either as a Note or a document.  I've been able to copy the info but the Paste does not do anything.  Anyone know a better way?

    When you tap and hold down on the text selection that you want to copy - are you seeing the Copy Option pop up? if so, tap on the Copy button and it should turn blue when the text has been successfully copied. Then just go into Notes - tap on the + sign to create a new note - tap and hold down on the note page until the Paste option pops up. Then tap Paste and it should paste the text onto the sheet. It works the same way anywhere that you can enter text, a Pages document, a URL field in Safari - any place that you can enter text.
    When the copy or paste buttons turn blue - the command has been completed successfully.

    Hi Carolyn,
    Thanks for your advice... My overall iPad performance is much mor "snappy" but here is what I get with a paste to this message:iPad 2 User Guide (For iOS 4.3 Software)
    Touch and hold the link. You can open the link in Safari or copy the link address to the clipboard .
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_2_user_guide.pdf
    And this was not what I was most recently copied to my clipboard while using Safari! Befor trying this copy/paste I even cleared Safari cookies and cache! Any other ideas would be appreciated.

  • Why can't print to Xerox Splash or HP from Safari or Apple Mail?

    I copy pasted this from the Printing and Faxing forum since it seems no one can answer my questions there. Maybe someone here has an answer.
    From yesterday:
    I just updated my computer from a G4 running 10.3.9 to a G5 running 10.4.5. I used the migrate wizard so I didn't need to install anything new. All my applications even seem to work well. The only thing I can't do is print from Safari or Mail to an HP LaserJet 1320 or a Xerox Docucolor G630. I reinstalled the drivers for both printers and I still can't print. I can print from Quark and Acrobat Reader just fine. A few months ago, I set up a G5 workstation but with that one I needed to install everything from scratch and I'm able to print from Safari and Mail fine from that computer. What do I need to do?
    One more thing, I tried printing a page from my System Profile and I can't. I click on the print button and nothing happens. I'm at a loss here. Where do I begin?
    I hate to be persistant but I really need some help. Let me tell you what I've done so far.
    I've gone to the HP site and downloaded the latest driver for the 1320n series printer and I reinstalled and set up the printer in the print center like I've always done with any of the printers I've set up before. I still can't print from Mail, Safari, and from the system. I see on the HP site that there is a fix in the Tiger system already (I think I'm reading that right) and I shouldn't be worrying about this.
    I found in one of the other forum listings about a Foomatic/hpijs and I installed that one. Nothing printed. I tried using a Generic PPD. Nothing happened.
    I reinstalled the Xerox Splash printer drivers from the disk and that didn't make a difference.
    In the print window, I can't make a PDF, won't let me Preview, and won't let me Print. I click on the buttons and they won't even react. It doesn't do anything. But even with the new drivers I've set up since I started all this, I can still print from Quark and Acrobat Reader. So it seems it's got something to do with the system.
    I'm really frustrated here. Can someone please give me a clue if they have one? Anything would be appreciated.
    PowerMac G5 2.3GHz 250 HD 1.5 Gb RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Thanks a million for your input. I really appreciate it. I found the fix though in the troubleshooting section in the book I purchased from Dr. Smoke from the Forums. It's his X Lab for Tiger book. Dr. Smoke is THE BOMB! :~D I have to thank him again for his guru abilities!
    There was a plugin that was afoul. The Xerox Accounting plugin was causing my print option not to respond along with the other buttons in the print window. I removed it from the plugin folder and now I can print. I'm glad that's all it was.
    Thanks again!

  • How can you copy information from Safari into Pages

    Is there a way to easily copy data, such as financial tables from Safari into Pages and maintain the integrity of the table and the data within it?  When I copy and paste it comes out all misaligned and into multiple pages.  The same thing happens if I try to highlight the table in Safari and drag it into Pages.  Is there not a "paste special" function in Pages like there is in Microsoft??

    See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5775
    You can then drag the resulting image into a Pages document, and position.
