Can't right click on copy in text file

Can somebody pls help? When i try to type in message in text file or the search in the finder, then i try to right click... Can't access it.

You need to re-install your ENTIRE SYSTEM!
(Just kidding
It could be an item in /library/contextual menu items. Drag the contents of that folder to the desktop and test again. If that sorts it put the items back one at a time to find the culprit..
If that's not it, navigate to ~(yourhome)/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Finder.crash.log open it and paste the contents here for the latest Finder crash and maybe we can figure what's going on.

Can't right click on my desktop. Files/Folders are also disappeared

The subject explains pretty much the situation.
The last days, I can't right click on my dekstop. Right click works on any other icon/app etc of course. At the same time, files/folders that I have in desktop, and I can see them through finder, are not displayed. However, if I login with the guest account, the problem is not reproduced.
Any ideas?
(I have a new macbook pro 13 retina display, running 10.9.1)

Sorry for the inconvenience.
It seems that there was a problem/miss configuration with an external program I installed (path finder).
Resolving this now

I can right click to copy a web page link, but it will not let me rick click again to paste the link to the body of text

I use firefox as my web browser. My start page is www.msn.com where I can access hotmail. Once I have logged into hotmail and click on (Create) new mail I have this problem. If I go to a web page link, ie; www.msn.com, I can highlite the address and then right click to copy. When I go to the body of the email I'm working with, and right click again to paste I DO NOT GET A SCREEN THAT HAS PASTE ON IT. I tried this again by logging into Internet Explorer signed into my hot mail account and tried it again. It works in IE with hotmail. So I feel this problem has been encountered with a firefox update, because I did not have the problem in the past.

Hi,
You may have to make sure that '''Disable or replace context menus''' is enabled (tick) in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Content''' > '''Advanced''' (on the right end of '''Enable Javascript''').

How can I remove the default right click option of the text Area control?

How can I remove the default right click option of the text Area control?
Is there any way to disable this control in any of the text controls available?

The iPhone does not store email addresses for received mail. The iPhone stores all email addressees for sent mail in a list of previous recipients. The list of previous recipients is not synced with Outlook or any address book, but the list of previous recipients is included with the iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. The auto-addrss feature pulls from your contacts on the iPhone and from the list of previous recipients.
Different from the Mail.app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients on the iPhone to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
The only way to purge the existing list at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
Hopefully access to the list of previous recipients will be included with the iOS 5 update.

Can I associate a right-click action w/ a text entry button?

Is there a way to associate a right-click action with a text
entry button? I tried to do a shift-F10 (windows equivalent) but it
wasn't recognized. I suspect it is not possible, but thought I
would ask.

Ahhhh, the fog is lifting now!
Thanks for fleshing that out a bit. There are a few different
ways to handle right-click in Captivate. See the links below for
more.

There is about a 5-second stall when I right click to copy and paste.

Hi!
I have been having several issues with Firefox since I installed it two weeks ago.
First, there is about a 5-second stall when I right-click to copy and past something. I work off of this computer so speed is paramount. I do not have this issue with Explorer, Chrome, or and offline programs.
Second, when I send emails from my Gmail account, I will send links or imbed pics in the email. When that happens, the first link or pic will show up, and the rest are broken links or code. This does not happen on other computers or web browsers.
Lastly, I have the flash player crashing quite often (multiple times a day).
What steps should I take to remedy these issues? I really like this browser and the add-ons, though speed is what runs my business so I may have to switch to Chrome if I cannot fix these problems. I can be contacted at 314.324.1245 if it would be best to walk me through these issues. Thank you! -Andy

I've called the big guys to help you. Good luck.

I often have to open files .cue with Text Edit. Right Click, Open with, Others, Text Edit. Is it possible to put Text Edit in the menu avoiding to use "others"?

I often have to open files .cue with Text Edit. Right Click, Open with, Others, Text Edit. Is it possible to put Text Edit in the menu avoiding to use "others"?

The easiest way is to keep Textedit in the Dock and drag the .cue file(s) to the Dock icon.
You can also create an Automator Service:
Open Automator
Select: Service
Select Service receives selected [files or folders] in [Finder]
and:
Then select one or more .cue file, right click (or Control-click) on the selection to display the contextual menu. Scroll to the bottom of the contextual menu and select Services -> (what you named the Service).

Can you right click on ipad 2 and if so how

can you right click on ipad 2 and if so how

You can't. If you are on, for example, Safari then pressing and holding an image or text should give you options e.g. save image (to the Photos app). What are wanting to achieve, and in which app ?

Can I right click on the iPad

Is there any way to simulate a right click in Safari on an iPad?

I'm in Safari and want to right click the page so I can View Source like on a PC. I tried holding down my finger and it just highlights the first word on the page and allows you to copy or define the word. Similarly, if I see an image I want to download or copy I can't right click it.

Downloaded new version yesterday and can't right click open in new tab bookmarks now...

Since I downloaded ner version yesterday, I can't right click on a bookmark and open in new tab like I could before. What's up with that?

I went to view > column browser > and artists, group compilations and use album artists are all checked.
Then I go to search and pull together an album compilation example "VH1 Top 100" highlight them all, click get info, I have "various artists" under "album artists" under "album" is "VH1 Top 100" and mark them as compilations. Go back to my album listing grid with artwork and they are all still scattered out. I must be leaving something out, but they were fine before I downloaded new itunes ?
Thanks again for help.

I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

Photoshop CC 14.2 can't right click scale boxes to change units

Since the 14.2 update I can't right click the scale boxes when I wan to resize an object to change the units for example from % to px.
Using win 8 64bit here.
Anyone can confirme this bug? Everything was working before the update.

John, I know that you are upset with that change dating from CS4. But AFAIK, it is possible to write an action that goes around the problem. Very, very few users change those two settings, you can add a warning about it. You repeat it so often it sounds like a core function of Photoshop everyone uses is broken.
In this very case, I would have liked to get a prompt similar to the one we get on a mac trying to use CMD+H that is used by the system, but is an historical shortcut in Ps.
The only way to create actions that will always work correctly isi to take advantage of the bugs in the implementation of the options. If there is a active selection the option ADD MASKS be DEFAULT has no effect there will always be a MASK added. And If you record adding adjustment layer using the Layer menu and check clip the previous layer in the new adjustment layer dialog the adjust layer will always be clipped. Knowing about the faults in the implementation of the option one can edit all old action and re-record the ADD adjustment layers steps to always have an active selection and Clip then configure the Clipped and masked adjustment the way the want. New Actions need to be recorded to take advantage of the faults also. However if Adobe fixes the faults in the implementation of the option one again actions will be broken. The two options should be removed. Thankfully if the option are left at their default setting Photoshop works as designed. Action will play back correctly. Yes I repeat it often and will. Adobe should fix bugs. Adobe should also not code wrong behavior for the ESC key either. Adobe is shooting Photoshop in the foot. Sometimes I thinf Adobe has a death wish...

Can't right-click in eyeglass view with IE 7

When using the eyeglass icon to view topics in my project, I
used to right-click the mouse and select Back to navigate between
various links. Since IE 7 was installed on my computer, when I am
in that view and right-click the mouse, nothing happens. Any
suggestions?

I couldn't say why RoboHelp is behaving this way for you, I
have IE 7 (using RH X5) and can still right-click and choose Back.
You should also be able to just hit the Backspace key to navigate
backwards as well.
