Carriage return often not recognised, copy-paste is half broken...

Trying to type into web forms such as gmail (or this one), CR is often ignored or delayed until after the next letter typed. Oh fun, I can't start a new line here, for eg. Also, if I ctr-c, the buffered material is lost if I do even the most trivial activity before the ctr-v.

hello VxDman, i could replicate this changed behaviour in firefox 29 and above. you can try this as a workaround:
<br>enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''editor.singleLine.pasteNewlines'''. double-click it, change its value to '''3''' and restart the browser for it to take effect.

  • I tried to paste text from another site into my Firebox document, but it says "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". How do I enable clipboard? I never had problems like this on Firefox before...why?

    I tried to paste text I copied from another site into my Notepad++ (as I've always done in the past with no problem).
    But today for the 1st time, I got a message when I tried to paste the text "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". What?
    What happened to the clipboard?

    That's a security feature in Firefox.

  • Barcode Carriage Return Function not working in Forms 6i

    Dear All,
    I m using Oracle Forms 6i with OS Windows 2000 Professional
    When I receiving Data from Barcode slot reader RS232 interface, carriage Return funtion not working in the forms 6i for e.g Barcode is *12345$M*
    ('$M' for carriage return). Full ASCII code enabled in my slot reader and carriage return switch is also on, its working fine on note pad.
    Please help me in this regard
    Thanks in Advance

    Hello Muhammad,
    Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately, this would not work.
    Indeed, when I scan a barcode, the cursor is already in the text field and no event is triggered.
    This idea is not to replace the Carriage Return but to have a When-Validate-Item with the Carriage Return sent by the barcode reader.
    In Forms, when I scan in a multi-lines text field, the string is displayed and the cursor goes to the next line
    But when I scan in a single line text item, it displays the strings but nothing else.
    Kind Regards,
    Olivier

  • Frustration with Address Book - Not Allowing Copy/Paste of Contact Card

    Has anyone found a work-around for copy/paste of an entire contact card in Address Book? Address Book used to allow you highlight and copy all of the content of a contact v-card. Since Snow Leopard released (including the 10.6.2 update), it only allows you to highlight and copy one line at a time. That is a dramatic reduction in productivity -- a lot like the dysfunctional nature of Outlook's contact manager. Any work-arounds that don't involve export/import to other programs?

    I believe I responded in the previous posting that the work-around did not resolve the problem. The effort that it takes to implement your suggestion takes more time than it would be to cut/paste individual lines or just retype the data. Again, the purpose is to make/have efficient work flow, not complicated tasks which had simple solutions at one point in time. And since a majority of the people reading support threads are less familiar than you might be with prospective automation and programming tasks with the OSX, maybe I should have simply stated that the function is "broke" and should be "fixed".

  • The carriage return &#13; does not appear to work in FF8, it did in 3.6

    I get quotes in html format from a supplier. In FF 3.6 (and IE) they would display properly. Since upgrading to FF 8, the rows in the table don't break at the end of each line, they just run on off to the right. Looking at the source they use an &#13; (carriage return code) as the line break between rows. I can't change what I get from the supplier.

    One of the changes in Firefox 4: '''''by default''''' Firefox 4 does not display the warning message when closing multiple tabs, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences. ''<u>Note: This was a decision by the developers. On this forum, we are all '''uncompensated volunteers''' here to help other users. The developes/employees of Mozilla/Firefox rarely, if ever visit here.</u>''
    #Type '''''about:config''''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #Accept the warning message (promise to be careful)
    #The preferences page/list will open
    #Filter = '''''browser.tabs.warnOnClose'''''
    #If its value is set to false, double-click on it (in the lower panel) to toggle its value to true
    #Repeat steps 4 and 5 for these following 3 preferences also:
    #*'''''browser.warnOnQuit'''''
    #*'''''browser.warnOnRestart'''''
    #*'''''browser.showQuitWarning'''''

  • Parts of the edit menu are not functioning: copy, paste, redo, cut, delete

    How can I restore copy, paste, redo, cut, delete on my menu toolbar?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • ITunes 10.4.0.80 does not allow copy / paste for album artwork.

    Only importing picture now works.  Any one else having this problem?

    Have you tried to drag & drop artwork instead of copy & paste? It seems to work just fine too.
    The only issue I've faced with album artwork is what turingtest2 has mentioned, which is hardly an issue for me since I use MP3tag to edit ID3 metadata.
    Hope that helps,

    Why do I bother with logic 8 again?
    It's really sad guys like you and me have to keep asking ourselves this question, but it has to be asked every time we uncover yet another useful and necessary function that got broken with the release of version 8.
    I've said it before and I'll say it again... I don't mind waiting out while Apple sorts through this very much .0 release of Logic, but it would do a lot to calm the professionals dissent if we could have conversations with the developers, letting them see first hand why some things are imperative to using Logic in the "real" world of audio.
    The "tight lipped" approach is doing nothing but losing long time users.

  • BPC does not recognize Copy-paste

    Hi,
    I am using the following VBA code to find if the excel is in Copy mode.
    If Application.CutCopyMode = 1 Then
    DO SOMETHING
    End if
    As long as I copy a cell and paste it outside the BPC data range, it works fine. But if the cell where I paste belongs to the data range, the CutCopyMode shows 0. Why is it not recognizing the Copy event? Also, in BPC, once we copy a region, we can use it to paste only once. Why can't we have a normal Excel function where we can paste it as many times as we want to? Is there some compatibility issue?
    Thanks,
    Swathi

    Karthik,
    I removed the CHANGED criteria from the FormatRange and it worked! Thank you very much

  • Not Cut/Copy & Paste

    hi
    i have windows 7. when i cut and copy the folders from pen drives. its not paste in my computer drives. its paste only desktop. Copy and Cut does not working. its give me some error.kindly tell how to solve the prob.
    thanks

    if you are able to paste it in your desktop but not on a drive then I would say this is a permission issue. The desktop is under your profile aka your credintials while the drive is  under different ACE management. Have you looked at the permissions?
    Could be a local or domain GPO or set on the drive it self.

  • Cap 6 projects not allowing copy/paste of elements

    Is this a known bug or does anyone have any explanation or ideas for resolution?
    It is making working on our projects really cumbersome. 
    It seems to be an intermittent problem, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but it seems to be happening at an increased rate.
    I can't identify a reason this is happening.  It happens on old projects that are being revised, new ones just recorded, big/small, etc.  We are all working in Captivate 6.
    My coworker thinks that it happens for her after she adds a highlight box, but I have not experienced the same thing.
    Please, HELP!

    Thank you for your responses!!
    Yes, unfortunately I don't think we are eligable to get that 6.1 update.
    I tried opening the program with "Run as Administrator" but I keep getting this error.
    When I manually copy the theme files to \My Adobe Captivate Projects it does not correct the error.  So... I'm not sure what is up with that.  It allows me to click OK through the error, and then aborts the Captivate program launch.  We do not use themes anyway.  Is there a way to correct this?
    The Captivate Project files and Cache are stored on my local drives.
    The theme layout files appear to be stored on a company shared drive. This must be causing the problem. Is there a way to change this and correct the problem??
    The types of things we are trying to copy are just your normal slide elements, highlights, click boxes, images, etc.  Not copying question slides or widgets.

  • I am working in windows 7 and I am trying to enable the copy/paste and I can not find user.j file in the profile and I am not real sure how to create a file, I can create a folder .

    I am trying to copy text from a word document and paste it into my web builder and it says that firefox does not support copy/paste from clipboard. Went to your site and it tells me to open the user.j file in my profile. This file does not exist and I am not real sure how to create that file so I can paste the fix from your site into it.

    I went to that link and added to firefox add on but it still does not work. I went to the add on option button for this but it told me that my MYSIWG widget was disabled. Does this have something to do with it not working and if so how do you enable it.

  • Copy Paste cell/table from OpenOffice

    Hi,
    I have a problem pasting text from cells from OpenOffice Writer to Indesign cells because it's seems that unlike Microsoft Word, OpenOffice separate the different elements of a table by a carriage return and not by a tabulation.
    Does anyone know the solution?
    Thanks,
    Edouard

    I am not using CS3, but testing NeoOffice with CS2 I see the same behavior as with Excel.
    Tables come in as text with tabs between columns and paragraph returns between rows.
    Using Dave Saunders PopTabFromClip script allows pasting of the data into predefined tables.
    If you need to convert the text pasted in direct from NeoOffice to Tables, then the method is to go ahead and paste, then select the text and use the Table menu option Convert Text to Table.
    I cannot comment on OpenOffice as I am not seeing the behavior reported by Edo75.
    -mt
    PS: I now see that Edo75 is using the Writer part (Word equivalent) of the office instead of the Spreadsheet (Excel equivalent). Could that be the issue?
    Edit: Yep, same issue. Try pasting into a new Spreadsheet, then copy the data again before pasting into InDesign. That fixed the behavior for me.
