I have an iPhone 4s, and I cannot copy and paste text from facebook.

I have an iPhone 4s, and I cannot copy and paste text from facebook. I opened Safari and tapped/held the text I wanted to copy, but nothing happened. I have tried everything, and I am getting frustrated.

Are the use the correct email address for the contact? Those are listed in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive. When Messaging somene the iOS devices used the email address (or phone number if applicable) listed in the Contact app for that person.
Thus, it appears the you Contact apps only has that one email address listed for the person you are trying to Message.
If he can send you a Messages can you reply to it? If so save the sender to your Contact app.

I am a new iPad user and cannot figure out how to copy and paste from a website to pages. Any insight?

I am a new iPad user. I cannot figure out how to copy and paste from a website to a pages document, and vice versa. Any ideas?

Long press on the text you would like to select (tapping and holding) and then release after the magnifying glass shows up. This will select a single word. Then use the blue dots and drag them to select a region of test. Then press "copy". Open pages, and long press and release where you would like to paste. Then select "paste". That should paste the text.
If the text doesn't select within the browser, it might be an uncopyable format. Like if the text was within an image, naturally you would be unable to select it. The only thing to do there is long press the image and selecting "save image", adding it to your camera roll. Then you could insert the image within pages.

I cannot copy and paste from Word 2007 into Firefox (gmail), and I cannot copy and paste from Firefox (URLs) into a word document.

Starting two days ago, I can no longer copy and paste between Firefox and Word 2007. I can copy within each program.

I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

I cannot drag items (files, maps) and drop them. And neither can I copy paste anything, not even text!

I just bought a new MacBook Air, at the start of November. And recently I can't copy files or maps, and neither can I drag and drop them. This get's really annoying as I kinda need this possibility when I study! Please help!

Hello GiaDuke,
i am having exactly the same issue, however my problem started prior to updating to 10.5.7. I updated in the hope that it would resolve the issue.
copy and paste no longer works. Cut works but i can not re-paste the copied/cut text. Neither mouse or keyboard shortcuts work.
i can select, click, double click etc with no problems. Applications and files launch when i click them, scrolling etc works fine.
2 things i have noticed:
1) Spotlight has dissapeared from my menu bar. Keyboard shortcuts for Spotlight no longer work. I have been into spotlight preferences and all seems normal, yet still no spotlight.
2) When i hover over a link or icon, often additional information pops up. This is no longer happening. It's almost as if the system doesnt know where the mouse cursor actually is on the screen.
While i still have a useable system, it is extremely frustrating not having the most basic functionality of cutting and pasting, draging and dropping, he ability to move files and icons around etc.
HELP!!!!!!

Cannot copy/paste between X11 and Aqua after 10.5.7 update

I'm stumped. After updating to 10.5.7 I am unable to cut/paste between xterm and Text Editor or any other Aqua-based app (email, browser, etc...). I can cut/paste between Aqua apps. And I can cut/paste between X11 apps, but X11 <-> Aqua just does not work. Commands pbpaste and pbcopy work great and are a temp fix, but I cannot work this way much longer. Going back to Linux is looking more and more attractive.
Thanks.

Put the image on a server and use the html code
Create another user account and see if X11 behaves normally in the new account. If it does, you know the problem must then reside in your own configuration settings.

When I use Preview to view a PDF in Hebrew, I cannot search in Hebrew nor copy or paste instead I get gibberish

When I use Preview to view a PDF in Hebrew, I cannot search in Hebrew nor copy or paste instead I get gibberish.
Is there a way to fix this?

Do you have an example that someone could look at? I wouldn't be surprised if most PDFs you found were gibberish. PDF is a print format and is really only designed to be printed out and read by a human. Constructing a PDF with real Hebrew Unicode would be a rare find. Here is one example I found by passing the Hebrew word for "Hebrew" in Hebrew in Google. This is a valid PDF. I have no idea what it says.

Mac does not boot past white loading screen and disk cannot be repaired?

So when I turn on my Macbook Pro and it does not boot past a white screen with the Apple logo, loading wheel and progress bar. When the progress bar completes, the Macbook shuts down and when I open it again the cycle is repeated. I have opened it in Safe mode and it still showed the same thing. So I opened it in Recovery Mode and had Disk Utility verify and repair Macintosh HD. As it turns out, Disk Utility said Macintosh HD is beyond repair and I need to back up my files and reformat the whole Mac. Unfortunately, I have never used Time Machine since I started using the Mac and I obviously cannot use it now since startup does not even get past the white screen.
How do I reformat the Mac when it does not even go beyond the white screen during startup? My Mac did not come with any recovery or installation disks. Are my unbacked up files gone for good?
Thanks.

Since you are able to get into Recovery Mode (Command+R), you can erase/format your Mac via Disk Utility.
Your files/data might be OK. One way to get your data off since you have no back up would be to have another Mac and connect the two via a Thunderbolt cable or even an ethernet cable (I think), then restart your 'bad' Mac into Target Mode by restarting and pressing the T key. Then go onto the 'good' Mac and see if you can copy the data files you want over to it.

Hi
I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
What can I do?
thank you a lot.

There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
- Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
- Adobe Reader (free)
Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

Copy and/or Cut and Paste no longer works from within Firefox yet I can Paste to Notepad and yet again copy the same text from within Notepad or any app will not Paste back into Firefox, thanks

I 'Copy & Paste' from within Firefox quite often but for some reason the function has stopped working when using some sites, even the menu item 'Paste' is greyed out, yet I can open Notepad and 'Paste'. I tried pasting into 'Notepad' then copying from Notepad and pasting back into Firefox, which I've found in the past sometimes works but today even that does not work. I accept it may not actually be a Firefox problem but I have noticed since upgrading to the latest version, I am having several problems with crashing and hanging exceedingly long execution of the browser.

I transferred photos to my computer by cutting and pasting. I have some on my phone that I didn't cut and paste. Now they are can and I cannot find them anywhere on phone or computer

I transferred photos to my computer by cutting and pasting. I have some on my phone that I didn't cut and paste. Now they are gone and and I cannot find them anywhere on phone or computer. Are they lost forever. I have done no back-up recently or icloud. My daughters 8th grade graduation was on it. I am devastated.

A lot of I should haves. I had too many photos and while at work I opened up the 4 folders inside of the DCIM folder on my phone. I didn't think it would be a big deal to just cut the photos and paste on my computer as I have done this before. i moved one folder that had 803 pictures in it and all was fine. I ran out of time and unplugged phone and went home. When I got to work this morning I was looking at my phone and realized I only had 34 pictures. I knew there should have been 400+ there and they are gone. Don't know what happened and if they were deleted off phone or computer I cannot see them anywhere. I didn't back up (I know mistake) Lessoned learned I just hope there is something i can do!

Is there a way to access an old account if you cannot remember the password, when I try to change passwork they have the wrong birthday in the system and I can't get past it

My old computer crashed and I was able to copy my music from my Ipod onto my new computer. When I upgraded to a new Ipod I was not able to access a lot of my music-I needed to authorize the new computer to play songs bought under the old apple ID. For the life of me I cannot remember what the password was, and when I try to reset it, the birthday that there to confirm it is me is the wrong date-so I can't go any further. If I go into an apple store will they be able to help? I have almost 100 songs that I have bought that I can't get to.
thanks

Hey teflonjimmy,
Thanks for the question. If you have lost track of the Apple ID email address or password, you can use our handy iForgot tool to recover the email address and/or password:

HT201272 I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days..." WH

I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 75 days." WHAT??
I've never had problems before - my husband and I have used the same library for years. My daughter also has her own Apple ID... are we going to have trouble with that, too? Actually we have 4 Apple IDs - somewhere around 8 Apple devices... this is a huge issue for us... HELP

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, put it into iTunes Library and convert it to an .mp3. How do I get the voice memos from my phone? I can't seem to move them out of the Devices folder, no matter how much I try to copy and paste or drag and drop

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, turn it into and .mp3, and email it. My iPhone shows up under "Devices" in my iTunes but doesn't allow me to move the voice memo files I see sitting there into my Library no matter how much copying and pasting or dragging and dropping I try to do.
Also, I need to convert the file to an .mp3.
How come no voice memo files show up when I go into my iPhone via My Computer? All it shows are the videos and pictures in the DCIM folder, but not the voice memos. Is there another way to access the voice memos other than through iTunes?

Email it to yourself, then save the file and then see if you can convert it to MP3.

My Photoshop CS 5 has some strange actions when I copy a portion of a photo using the clone stamp to transfer to another part of the image. It carries the entire layer (not just the stamps selection) across the screen and I cannot place it where I need t

My Photoshop CS 5 has some strange actions when I copy a portion of a photo using the clone stamp to transfer to another part of the image. It carries the entire layer (not just the stamps selection) across the screen and I cannot place it where I need to. It appears as if I selected the entire layer on purpose (which I did not)
The below items appeared when I opened Photoshop CS 5:
“Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled G & U enhancements. Check the video card malfunctions website for latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.”
(I believe this started after the automatically updated Windows was applied. It was coincident with the before mentioned problem . . . but I don’t really know if it had anything to do with it. )

For the Clone Stamp problem, check the Clone Source panel and Clipped is probably unchecked.
If so, check Clipped and see if that makes a difference.
(Window>Clone Source)
As to the video card problem:
Which version of windows are you using?
What is the make and model of your graphics card?
Do you know which update windows installed?
