Copy and paste file names from images

I want to copy and past the names of multiple photoshop files into an email. In 10.3.9 I could select them all and copy and paste..now with mail 2 and 10.4.3 when I do that it actually pastes the image file themselves..is there something that I can change pref wise to get it back to the old way..very time consuming this way. I don't want to haveto do them individually..I hope!

Hi CGI,
I've been playing with it and the only workaround I found so far is:
Drag to select the files in the finder window
Command C to copy
Open TextEdit
Go to Edit>Paste and match style
You will now have the list of file names in Textedit
Select all and copy to your email message.
I tried to figure out an automator workflow for it but since I have never used Automator I was kind of lost.

  • Very elementary doubt, but... can i use the rest free space of Airport Time Capsule as a Hard Drive (copy and paste files freely, from my MacAir SSD to the Time Capsule), besides use it with Time Machine at the same time?

    Cant find it clearly in tutorials...

    You can do it.. should you do it is another question.
    Store files on the TC.
    This is asked several times a day.. obviously people are struggling with their latest SSD being too small.
    The TC is not suitable for network file server.. but many people having no choice press it into service as such.
    Major issues.
    1. No backup.. no way Time Machine can backup a network drive. No place to backup to.. So all your files will be at risk. Think this out very clearly.. how and to where are you going to backup your files. And you will need to buy a third party like CCC to do backup.
    2. The TC cannot be partitioned and mixing TM backups and data is not great. It was and is and ever shall be a backup device for Time Machine.
    3. The drive is slow to spin up and quick to spin down.. there is no control. In fact the TC is so lacking in controls for even the router side.. that you cannot do more than the most basic of setups.
    The following are controls on the hard disk side.
    Reformat it. You can name the share. You can do a full archive of the whole disk. This will go at a speed of aprox. 30-50GB/Hr so calculate how long an archive of a full 2TB will take.
    4. iPhoto in particular can easily corrupt its entire library with wireless networking causing a disconnection to one photo. Even if you do this;;; do not move your photo library... you have been warned!!
              Even apple btw say don’t do it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5168 Although mostly about FAT32           it adds network drives.
    5. iTunes can constantly lose connection to the library. The disk is slow to respond.. itunes on the computer will constantly spit out errors. Even in the midst of streaming the TC can spin down the disk due to caching.
    6. Do not use any live files on the TC no matter what else you do.. if you edit files in whatever program the file must be on the local hard disk.
    7. The only suitable location for most libraries is a computer. You can plug in an external hard disk.
    Read pondini for some work arounds.

  • Can't copy and paste files

    Why won't my MacBook Pro let me copy and paste files, particularly from my external hard drives (to each other) and (to my computer). They are both new and it shouldn't be a problem.
    Please help!

    Is it possible that the hard drives, which you said are new, have not been formatted for the mac?  If they are formatted NTFS (which is the standard format for new drives) you will only be able to read from the drives, not write...therefore you will not be able to cut and paste. 
    To check the format of the drive, from the Utilities folder, open the application "Disk Utility".  Select the Hard drive from the left side of that app, and then click on the "Partition" tab.  Then click on the big Partition block found under "Volume Scheme" and see what it says beside "Format".  If it is NTFS, this is your problem.
    The best solution if the drives will only be used on the mac is to use the Disk Utility Application and reformat the hard drives by selecting the drive you want to format on the left side of the app, and select the "Partition" tab.  Under Volume Scheme select "1 partition" and then for format, select "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".  Then Click Apply.  PLEASE NOTE THAT DOING THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING ON THAT HARD DRIVE!!!!
    If the drives need to be used on a windows machine as well, you can download and install this plugin for your mac that will make it read and write to NTFS although it will do so slower than a disk formatted for the mac.  Here is a link: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g    Using this option will NOT require you to loose any data that might already be on the disks.
    Hope this helps!

  • Copy and paste files from Windows Explorer

    Hi everybody,
    For a part of my application I need to copy and paste files and folders from Windows explorer to the vi shown in the picture.
    Does anybody know how to implement this with the clipboard functionality.
    Also drag and drop would be very nice (but thats maybe a later step...)
    Best regards, Helmut

    Hello Friedr,
    drag and drop is the easy part!
    Use a path control, this will naturally allow drag and drop. If a file is dropped on this a 'Value Change' event is fired! with this event you can load the data into the picture. To get a nice drag and drop functionality you should make the path transparent and resize to the size of the picture control. This will work fluently!
    To use the clipboard, LV 8 has an functionality for this, I think it is an application event.

    PS I didn't see you image maybe it was removed when you did a preview these have the bad habit of removing the attachments!

    Hi BobRz
    Thanks for you suggestion but it didn't work - are there other ways for solving this problem? Or is it because my files that I want to copy and paste onto my hard disk etc are too big? (However there is space on my hard disk and it works on a PC)

    == i want to copy and past 58 links from my IE favorites into the bookmarks toolbar...not one at a time. where's the folder i can copy these too?

    Firefox doesn't store the bookmarks as separate files in a folder, but uses a sqlite database file with the name places.sqlite.
    You will have to export those favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.

  • Can't copy and paste files using RDP session in server 2012

    I'm running windows 8, but I have also verified on a windows 7 machine as well. We have server 2012 installed on a machine
    I use remote desktop to get into. I cannot copy files from my local pc and use paste to get them to the server. I could do this with server 2008. Is there some setting I have to change or does this not work with server 2012?
    FYI, clipboard is checked when I open my remote desktop connection window. If I connect into a win server 2008 r2 machine from the same local machine, I can copy and paste files
    just fine.

    Hi,
    I believe RDS clipboard redirection should be enabled by default also on Windows Server 2012. Is there perhaps is a Group Policy Object active that is configured to disable Clip Board Redirection? Either on the computer or the user OU. If not:
    You did not explicitly state this, but I'm assuming that you are running in Application Mode (meaning you did not install the RD Session Host role) ? If so please check the registry on the Windows Server 2012 destination server and look for:
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Winstations\RDP-Tcp\fDisableClip
    this should be set to
    0, to make allow Clipboard Redirection
    Also check the key below:
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Addins\Clip Redirector
    This should have: 
    Name
    REG_SZRDPClip
    Type
    REG_DWORD0x00000003
    If you did run the RD Session Host role, and you have done so using a Scenario Based Deployment (Scenario
    Based Deployment of RDS in Windows Server 2012 ) you will have a Remote Desktop Management Service GUI available as pat of the Server Manager with which you can enable or disable ClipBoard Redirection from within a GUI on a Session Collection level
    or you can use PowerShell
    Using Powershell to install, configure and maintain RDS in Windows Server 2012

  • How do you copy and paste a photo from the internet without a mouse?

    Does anyone know how to copy and paste a photo from the internet without a mouse?  I would appreciate a response asap.  Thanks.

    Pointing, clicking, and getting around
    When you move your mouse or finger on a trackpad, you control a pointer (also known as a cursor) that moves across your screen. The pointer allows you to select and interact with the various items on your screen, including selecting files, clicking buttons, dragging sliders, and so on. Sometimes the pointer may look like a hand, a crosshair, an I-beam, or another icon, depending on what you're doing and the application you're using.
    For example, if you're using Safari to view this webpage and move the pointer across it, notice that it turns into an I-beam when you move it over text or a text field. When you see this, you can usually interact with the text or field below it. When you move the pointer over a button or link, the pointer turns into a hand, letting you know that you can click on the item.
    Depending on what you're doing and what application you're using, your pointer (far left) may change appearances
    Clicking your mouse button or trackpad button once allows you to select the item that your pointer is on. In other words, if your pointer is on a file's icon, clicking once will select it. If the pointer is on a button or link, clicking once will activate it. If your pointer is on a text field, clicking once highlights the field and allows you to start typing text in it.
    If you want to open a file, folder, or application, click your mouse button or trackpad twice. This is known as double-clicking. In general, you'll need to double-click items if you want to open them from a Finder window or the desktop. The exception to this is opening stuff from the Dock—just click once on an icon in the Dock to open it.

  • I can't copy and paste files in finder arrrgghh

    Ok im not the most tech savvy person around and this is my first imac, I dont operate windows on it and am stumped. I am trying to transfer my movies onto a media player and external hard drive but it just wont do it. when I just had my previous pc all I had to do was copy and paste and am ready to scream. Does anyone have any answers????

    I don't think this is necessarily a disk format problem.  I've been noticing the same thing the past few weeks.  I used to copy and paste files frequently using the Finder but it no longer works.  I have the Copy option in the contextual menu when a file is selected but I no longer have a Paste option after doing the copy.
    All mounted drives on my system are formatted Mac OS Extended and the operation fails even when attempting to copy files residing on the boot drive to another folder on the same boot drive.  Digging around for a cause/solution now.
    UPDATE:
    The problem in my case was an application called Clipboard Cleaner that strips all formatting from text you copy to the clipboard so you can copy from something like a Word doc and paste into an email without all the Word formatting coming along as well.  It runs in the background and apparently disables the ability to copy/paste files.

  • How to copy and paste files to Time Capsule

    I thought it could be used as an external disk.
    Do you guys know how to copy and paste files directly into Time Capsule?

    I thought it could be used as an external disk.
    An external disk...also known as a local disk....connects directly to a computer using USB or FireWire.
    The Time Capsule is a network disk, since it connects direct to a network. As such, it s a SHARED network device
    Open a Finder window and look for the SHARED heading on the left side of the window. The Time Capsule icon should appear there. Click on the Time Caspule icon.
    A folder, representing the Time Capsule drive named "Data" (unless you have changed the name of the drive) will appear to the right
    Double click on "Data" to mount the Time Capsule drive on the desktop. You may need to click "Connect As" and enter the Time Capsule device password the first time that you do this.
