Control C (copy) doesn´t hold a copy

Everytime I select a portion of a document, for example, a text in Internet to paste it in Word, I copy (control C) the text, open Word, and then when I paste, nothing happens. I have to go back to Safari and copy the text one more time to be able to paste in Word, that´s already opened.
The first time I hit Control C, the information is not held in Clipboard.
Why this happens?

In Word 12.1.7 it takes pasting twice to get the info from this site into the document.
In TextEdit it works as it should.
In OpenOffice it works as it should.
Use another text program to paste your copied text into such as OpenOffice.
Or not..

  • Opt-click & drag to copy doesn't work..why???

    Hello,
    I am having trouble with the shortcut copy & drag command (holding down option while dragging a note event or region.) It only seems to work about half the time- frequently, it moves the event instead of moving a copy. Then I have to undo & try again. Sometimes this happens 5 or 10 times before it finally works. As you can imagine this can be incredibly frustrating.
    I haven't been using Logic long enough to know if I'm just an idiot or I have some kind of bug.
    I have tried holding down opt before clicking on the item vs clicking on the item first and then holding option...I've tried selecting the item first, then tried having it NOT selected before the first click...it just seems to work sometimes, not work other times, no matter what. Has anyone heard of this problem? I couldn't find anything in the archives here.
    Or, does anyone have a Logic tech support email or phone #? It seems to be hard to find.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks

    The good news is that I use this copy method all the time with no problem so it is most likely something small that you're overlooking. So let's take it step by step:
    to copy a region, select the region by clicking on it once. When the region is highlighted grab it by clicking and holding on it. Now move it to where you want to position the copy (if you have the help tags on they will read "Moving to position x.x.x.x). When it's positioned where you want it hold the option key (the help tags will now read "Copying" instead of "Moving"). Release the mouse button while still holding the option key, once the copy is in place you can stop holding the option key.
    To copy individual note(s) in the Score or Piano Roll editors follow the exact same proceedure except that you first select the notes by rubberbanding them.

  • Finder copy doesn't copy all files

    I have a dedicated disk for my Aperture masters, and to back this up while also defragging (according to a method described by Kevin J Doyle and Matthew Bergsma on the Aperture forum) I'm simply doing a Finder copy of the masters. I may have made a mistake when I relocated my masters a few months ago, because I put all 40,000 files in a single directory, at the "root" level of the drive.
    I've searched around to see if there is a limit to the number of items in a single directory, and saw guesses but nothing definitive.
    The problem is that when I try to copy the files, the Finder shows all 40,000 selected, but only copies 10,000 or so. I can't figure out why. If needed I can relocate the masters again into project folders, but I'm very curious why I'm seeing the partial copy.

    I've got the same problem when copying multiple large files from the desktop to a network drive on Windows Home Server (using drag/drop). The files are about 1gb each, and if I copy more than one at a time, at least one will dissapear on the target machine. This is VERY repeatable.
    When I watch it closely, I can see temporary files for all files appear, and the number of items, and the total size reported in the copy status on the Mac are correct. In fact, it takes about the correct amount of time for the total size copied. However, when the copy is complete, some of the files on the target drive vanish. There is no error dialog, files just go poof. Dragging the missing files again works, as long as no more than one is copied at a time.
    A test with a few small files works fine. This only fails with large files. The total copied is less than 2gb, so this doesn't seem to be a FAT32 problem. There is ample space on the destination drive (over 1Tb free). The Mac is on a wireless 802.11N lan.

  • Making a Green Screen copy--doesn't work

    I have a nice Green Screen shot. I wanted to copy it and put the copy in another part of my film. But I find that I can't seem to copy both the Green Screen shot and the normal shot it's attached to together; I have to do it separately. But then, when I try to use these two copies and attach them to each other, I can't. The Green Screen refuses to attach and springs back to where it was.
    Anybody have any ideas?

    Seems like this is just a quirk of Green Screen. No biggie.

  • The plastic hinge between my screen and the computer (macbook pro retina) is cracked and doesn't hold the screen anymore? Can Apple change it?

    The hinge between my screen and my computer (macbook pro retina) has cracked and doesn't hold the screen anymore. Can I fix it without changing my screen. And if it's still on guarantee does Apple have to repair it?

    Apple can fix any and all of their computers.  Whether it would be charged to you would be the question.   Do you have AppleCare?

  • File copy/paste adds " - Copy" - how to change to " - Copy" + date/time?

    Is there any way I can change the default file copied name from having " - Copy" at the end to " - Copy" plus the date and time?
    Before editing files I always make a copy of the existing file so I have a backup. I do this by clicking on the file I want to change in the list of files then do Ctrl C and Ctrl V which creates a copy of the file at the end of the list of times, with "- Copy" at the end of the name in the format "index - Copy.php". Is there any way I can get Dreamweaver to add the date and time to the name which would save me from editing the name and adding the date and time every time. Its a pain having to do this but I don't know any other way to ensure I know the date and time the file was copied. I know that there is a Modified date and time but changing a template for instance changes that and besides the file could also be edited but having the name reflect the copy date/time allows me to have the Modified date/time as a double check. I would like to have the file name in the format "index - Copy20110216 1621.php", the date being the international format and the time slotted on the end of it. This then puts the files in date/time order in the list.

    There's no way of customising a copied file name using DW that I'm aware of.
    Either rename it manually in DW or use a 3rd party file copy utlity outside DW.
    Is there a reason for keeping a hard copy of the last copied date that the Last Modified date in the operating system does not record?

  • Copy QAS customizing after TDMS copy from Production are finished

    Hi Gurus,
    I need your help whit this issue. I use TDMS to create a second client in QAS with Production data but I have to manteinance a QAS customizing.
    The TDMS copy was finished OK. So, the customizing is same as the production system; but I need the customizing from QAS system.
    Have I import ALL transport to QAS in the new client ?? Or I can do a client copy??
    How to copy the customizing QAS to the new client in the same system??
    If I do a client copy with SAP_CUST profile, the documentation said that the appliction data was deleted.
         SAP_CUST
          Client-dependent Customizing, including authorization profiles, are copied. The application data is deleted and the user data is retained.

    I don´t know how is the best practice for this situation...
    Somebody can help me for this?
    Thanks a lot.
    Sergio.

    Hello.
    What we do here (sucessfully) is to install in QAS all transports in the queue to the production system. Of course for that you have to be sure that your queue really represents the delta between QAS and PRD.
    Actually that's already how we did it before TDMS: we made full system copies, but then imported the queue back in QAS so that we would keep the customizing (and ABAP).

  • Flatbed white and black copy very faint but color copy is ok.

    Flatbed of HP officejet pro 8600 black and white copy very faint but color copy is good. I am also able to print from my desktop and other devices fine.  I have all Hp inks and they are full.

    Hello calbears,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand when you copy a black and white document, it's very faint. I will do my best to assist you! Please make sure this printer is plugged into a direct wall, not a surge protector. I just want to see if this makes a difference.
    Could you print a self test page from your printer to make sure the black ink is printing out? Follow this HP document on Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems which shows you how to print this page. Let me know on this post how this page comes out.
    Make sure this Firmware is update to date on this printer. I will provide the update from the HP website here. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

  • IMAQ Copy function does not always copy Calibratio​n Informatio​n

    This only seems to happen on one PC in compiled form- works fine elsewhere. I wrote a trap to check for the existance of calibration information before the copy, and again after the copy to a newly created image. If the two disagree, the program breaks. The program breaks consistantly on one of my machines, but never on other PCs. Does anyone know what conditions can cause this to happen?

    Hello,
    Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
    I don't know of anything in particular that would cause the IMAQ Copy function to not copy the pattern matching information on one particular machine. For troubleshooting purposes, I recommend checking for any and all differences between the working machines and the non-working machine. For instance, check the versions of all software that may be used by the application (especially NI-IMAQ and IMAQ Vision). How do the systems differ in hardware? Are they all the same make/model of PC? Are they all using the same IMAQ board?
    Any differences you uncover may help us figure out what is causing this behavior. Let me know your findings so I can continue to assist you.

  • Blend Mode doesn't hold in Smart Object

    Here's the scenario:
    I'm building a web page, lot's of layers and groups. I want to clean things up by converting some groups into smart objects.
    Here's the Problem:
    Within some of the group folders are layers with a blend mode assigned, like Darken. When I convert the group to a Smart Object the blend mode on those layers doesn't hold.
    Screen grabs:
    Hopefully these will make it clear in cas I haven't explained it well.
    Original with layers
    Group converted to Smart Object
    Bland mode applied to Smart Object
    I figured out why it happens, I want to know if there's a way around it other then don't do it.
    TIA,
    Mike

    Yep, another understandable feature by few who understand, but created by many users -  toy feature for web and print. It can either mean money or murder when handed these files from your bone head customer who assumes anything that can be created shall work with the greatest of ease because marketing told you so.
    Now that's progress intelligently planned.
