Copy and paste lines

Hi you all,
I bought a new MacBook Pro and now can not use the old technique of copying and pasting lines of text using the track pad. What has changed?
Thanks for replying,
alebarut

the "old technique" is placing the cursor at the beginning of a line and then pulling it until the end, tapping and fixing the marked area to the cursor , then dragging it to release it at the desired point.

How can i copy and paste 100 item lines into Purchase order (ME21N) ?

hi,
Can anyone help me to use the copy and paste from Microsoft excel ?
1. i have 100 line items in excel for material item.
2. I copied the 100 lines in excel and paste into PO creation transaction code ME21n line items.
3. In one shot, i only successful copied 35 lines.
How can i manage to copied all line items into PO items in one shot ?
Is it possible to copied the excel line items into PO screen line item more than what we can see in the screen ?
thanks

Hi,
No, it can't! So far in the current version of mySAP Business Suite you can not do it when you create any document, you only can copy the line items as mush as the screen can display! you said you can copy 35 items, I thought your screen resolution must be bigger than 1024X768 (it's my screen resolution)!
So I hope maybe SAP AG can solve the problem in the future, then we can copy the items as mush as we want!
Good luck!

When I copy and paste text in facebook, the text looks fine until I hit 'share' or 'comment' to submit it. Firefox then adds indiscriminate line-feeds within the text and it looks nothing like the original text. It makes it very difficult to read and awful to look at.
This does not happen in Safari.
(Mac OSX 10.6.4 with Firefox 3.6.6).

Same problem, 3.6.8 and previous recent versions. I never thought to try another browser but I just pasted into IE and it worked fine. I copied from Firefox to IE and it worked as well. It's just when you paste into Firefox that you get the weird line breaks.

Copy and paste from MS Word to Apple Mail - line spacing

Folks:
When I copy and paste single-spaced text from MS Word into the body of an email message in Apple Mail, it pastes in as double spaced text. Does anyone know of a fix for this? I can't seem to find how to change line spacing in Apple Mail. Thanks.

hi, had the same issue
went into the word doc, removed all tabs (even if not using tabs there were some hidden) and paragraph formatting and it pasted in fine... my doc was a single paragraph...
BUT having fixed that I found another doc which underlines the text when pasting it into mail!!!! havn;t solved that!

Oracle Express 10g - SQL Command Line - copy and paste?

Is there a special key to copy and paste SQL statement in the SQL command line?
I'm doing a spool and this can only be achieved through the SQL command line. Thanks for the help if any.

It uses the functionality of the shell it is running in.
If you're using Windows, right-click on the title bar, select Edit then Paste from the menu that pops up.
If you select Properties from the menu, you can enable Quick Edit mode, which lets you paste using the right mouse button.
You can use the up arrow key to recall previous commands.
If you're using Linux, I think you can paste with the right mouse button. (Or is it the middle mouse button?)

Copy and Paste Multiple lines into a single cell

Folks:
I need to copy some plain text data into a single cell that has been merged with other cells to provider a larger unit; however, every time I copy and paste my data it gives me an error. In addition, if I paste the data into a single cell, the next line
of data inserts into the next row.
I understand that Alt+enter is a quick way to do what I want, but I already have the data typed out, and I do not want to type the data again.
Example: (If possible I want in one single cell)
Disks=32
Total space=1.74TB
Used space=1.20TB
Free space=0.54TB
Thank you!!!

Is there any way to do this but keep the source formatting? I don't see any "Paste Special" options when you do it this way.
That is not possible - when you copy/paste this way, you only copy the plain text, not the formatting. You'll have to apply formatting to the cell with pasted lines from scratch.

When I copy and past text in a chat window there is a line of information that appears that describes the font and other information related to the pasted information. How do I stop that from displaying?

When I copy and paste this is what appear: @font-face { font-family: "Arial"; }@font-face { font-family: "ＭＳ明朝"; }@font-face { font-family: "ＭＳ明朝"; }@font-face { font-family: "Cambria"; }p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal { margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt;

Make sure that the editor that you use to compose the text is in plain text mode.

[b]HOW TO:[/b] Copy and Paste THE Filename AND its PATH from Finder

HOW TO DO THIS: Copy and Paste THE selected Filename AND its entire PATH from Finder to another application as in document footer reference, or document database which has a path field to aid in locating the file later.
Finder, Spotlight and File Info (can be used to display Path) or using Command F, command I, etc. but user is not allowed to copy the path to clipboard.
This is rudimentary, yet the word Path, is unknown to Mac Help.

AJ,
Isn't it amazing....There is no Command Key for this action? Apple Care was confounded too. And thanx, it'll be a help....
Jim
its tedious, but this should work:
open a terminal window.
Drag and drop the icon for the file in the terminal
window.
This will put the full path including the filename on
the command line.
Copy the path from the command line, and paste
(wherever).
Close the terminal window.

How do I copy and paste a shape (or layer) from one file to another keeping all of its attributes?

Our department currently uses MS Paint to place varied colored boxes for callouts on top of screen figures used in our documentation. As you know, MS Paint is not a robust image editing application, and we are frustrated at its limitations (especially not having a "non-destructive" edit capability). Consequently, we are evaluating a trial version of PS to see how a workflow could be developed that would allow the department to use callout boxes "stored" in a PS file that could be applied in an easy, consistent manner to our screen figures (but also keep each callout box editable) using PS.
Consequently, in PS using the shape tool, I created a file with our colored boxes for callouts, each on its own layer. Now I am trying to determine how you copy and paste a box (or layer) from this file to a "working" file (one containing a screen figure), while keeping all of its attributes (color, line weight, being editable, etc.). I can't seem to find an option to do this. Is there? If not, is there another workflow in PS that you can recommend for this type of procedure?

Thanks - I used the Layer > Duplicate command and it worked great!
P.S. How do you drag and drop a layer? I tried dragging a layer to the other open image, but nothing happened. Do you have to hold down a specific key for this (I'm using Windows)?

I believe that insufficient RAM may be the source of some of your problems. If you have a RAM of somewhere 4 to 8GB, you will experience smoother computing. 3GB doesn't seem right, so you might want to learn more by going to this site:

Copying and Pasting file paths in iChat

Hi all,
Since upgrading some of our machines at the office to Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and iChat 5.0.3 we are having a strange issue that I hope someone has some insight into.
When all of the machines at our office ran Leopard and iChat 4, we used to send linkable file paths to folders on our server to one another via iChat so we could avoid having to write "go to Jobs, then to Current, then Posted, and the file is in there."
We would achieve this by opening up a firefox window, then dragging a folder from our server into the window. It would generate a filepath that looked like "file:///Volumes/Server/Jobs/New/transfer/" in the URL bar which could be copied and pasted into iChat and would appear as a linkable URL. Then we started using a program called Get File Path by Alpha Omega Software (http://alphaomega.software.free.fr/), a great drag and drop app which did the same thing with great results.
On machines that run Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and iChat 5.0.3 neither of these tricks will work anymore. The message returns an alert saying that the message couldn't be delivered, and that an "AIM service error occurred."
Does anyone know why this is happening? Has ichat changed the way it pastes text into message windows? These tricks were real timesavers, and it is annoying they are no longer working.
As an aside, the port number in iChat is 5190 on all machines, those that work and those that don't. This probably has nothing to do with it, but it is a little extra info.
Thanks in advance,
Adrian

Hi,
I did test this (I got distracted from looking for the thread to post to it).
I tested with A Google ID and a Jabber ID (one on Each computer) and could send the Text and it appeared as a Live link and showed where the file was.
It did not matter which was sending (10.6.4 or 10.5.8)
I tested with two AIM based Logins.
As you have stated 10.6.4/iChat 5.0.3 will not send to 10.5.8/iChat 4.0.9
10.5.8/iChat 4.0.9 can send to 10.6.4/iChat 5.0.3
I double checked firewalls. (Both allowing iChat)
I checked the router (allowing all ports on Local Traffic).
I did find this in a Console Message (on the 10.6.4 computer) though:-
Based on this info I tried deleting com.apple.ichatAgent.plist and starting iChatAgent (I used Force Quit in Activity Monitor and restarted iChat)
This did not improve things.
I have sent Feedback

Copy and paste graphics and text in Acrobat 9 Pro

I'm a new user of Acrobat Pro and am trying to copy a combination of text and graphics from the top half of a page to the blank bottom half of the page. I've not had much success with what I thought would be a simple thing to do and would welcome suggestions. Here's a summary of the options I've tried so far for graphics, text, and both text and graphics.
A. Graphic Alone:
1. When I use the Select Object Tool, I can highlight the graphic but when I unclick the left mouse button, the highlighting disappears, so I can't copy the graphic.
2. When I use theTouchup Object Tool, only an oblong portion of the graphic is highlighted when I click on the object. The only way to highlight all of the graphic is to hold down the shift key and click on successive portions of the graphic until I have highlighted all of it. When I then right-click the mouse, I can copy the graphic. However, when I then place the mouse cursor in the bottom half of the page and do a righ-click paste, the graphic appears to be pasted on top of the original graphic. I can then drag the graphic to the bottom half of the page. I can also paste the object on to a blank page from Create PDF>Blank Page. Overall, this is not elegant nor intuitive, but it does work.
B. Text Alone:
1. I can copy the text but when it is pasted, it is not formatted like the orginal, nor can I place it where I want on the bottom half of the page. This is true whenther I use the basic copy function or the Touchup Text Tool.
2. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and click on the text, Acrobat places similarly-formatted text in a box that I can then right-click and copy. I can then paste the text on a blank page with the text formatted identical to the way it was on the original page. With several blocks of text formatted differently, this procedure could work but would require a lot of work to create a format with placement identical to the original.
C. Text and Graphics Together
1. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and attempt to highlight the top half of the page, the Tool insists on including the blank bottom half of the page in its selection. I can copy everything on the page but I haven't found a way to select just the objects in the top half of the page -- I can copy some, but the selected objects aren't highlighted and so this isn't a satisfactory route. It seems obvious to me that Touchup Object should be able to select just the objects I want. But then, even the Select Object Tool doesn't do that, either -- it Selects an object but then you can't do anything with the object.
2. Using the snapshot tool, I can highlight both graphics and text and copy them -- I can even export them them to another program via the clipboard and create an external file. However -- regardless of whether I just copy and paste, or do a Touchup Object file import, or whether the file is bitmap or jpg -- when I paste the resulting object or file onto a page in Acrobat, the image always comes out at 200% of its orginal size. I looked for a Resize option, but couldn't find one.
This is all very time-consuming and frustrating since what I am trying to do is not rocket science. Surely there is a simple way to do this.
By the way, there are no security restrictions on the file.
George

Hi,
In response to both "...is that normal?" — Yes.
PDF is not a file format meant to support editing of layout/format/etc or text content creation.
You'd master content in an authoring application (FrameMaker, InDesign, MS Word, etc.).
The PDF file is the output of this mastered content.
Some minor touchups are possible with Acrobat (think whiteout/correction tape on a printed piece of paper -- PDF page content is the electronic "finished paper").
With that said, you might play with File > Create PDF > From Blank Page and use the Typewriter tool to enter text.
To output MS Word content to PDF use the Adobe PDFMaker.
Prior to Word 2007, you'd use "Adobe PDF" on the menu line.
With Word 2007, you'd use the Acrobat Ribbon features.
Be well...

Dreamweaver CC - cannot copy and paste

Hi, Dreamweaver just stopped permitting copy and paste. How can that be? How can a brand new install of DW suddenly not allow any text to be copied from one document to another? I have tried copying a section of four lines of text from one html file to another, doesn't work. I have tried copying the code view content from one to another, I have tried copying just one word from one html file to another, and nothing is working. DW has just stopped working, period. Simple edits that should have taken just 2-3 minutes and here I am an hour later, having restarted my system, applied yet another update to CC apps, and still, not able to copy and paste. Major failure. And another reason why I should not have been sucked into subscribing to CC. Thanks Adobe for letting me down yet again, will explain to my client that I can deliver simple updates because a multi-million dollar company has outsourced its development to India and let me with virtually useless software that is still in beta testing.

Hi vharis, thanks for the suggestion but did not work. I’m on Mavericks with DW CC.
Here is what I am getting when I first open files:
While executing onLoad in bc_opOpen.htm, the following Javascript error(s) occurred:
In file “bc_onOpen”:
onLoad is not defined
Separate dialogue box:
While executing onLoad in ProtoFile_opOpen.htm, the following Javascript error(s) occurred:
In file “ProtoFile_onOpen”:
onLoad is not defined
The following translators were not loaded due to errors: PROTO.html: has configuration information that is invalid.
I did an update late yesterday AFTER this issue started, hoping that the issue would go away.
It hasn’t.
So DW CC is utterly useless to me now and I am searching for replacements because I need to make ongoing edits to client sites and don’t have the time to beta test Adobe’s ridiculously expensive software for them.

CANNOT COPY AND PASTE MAPPINGS IN OWB REPOSITORY

I was trying to copy and paste mapping HR_APP_H_APPR_DEL_OLD_ETKS_T12 from module DMRH_DWH into the same module. I could copy but when pasting, the following error happened (translated from Spanish into English): "Error in line 4.824: Error in Repository: Error in insertion. .: ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kcbrls_1], [], [], [], [], [], [], []". I exit the application and start it again, follow the same steps and the same error happened. I have sent the screenshot of the error. I have also run OWB in batch mode, and I have attached out.log and error.log files, where it can be seen the error.

First you need to open song info copy from or paste to the artwork box. It won't work with right click, you need to use the short cuts "cmd C" for copy and "cmd V' for paste.

Swatch palette becomes full of unused colors when copy and paste from one document to another!!

sometimes (i haven't found a pattern yet of when) when i copy and paste an object that is solid black (for example) into another Illustrator document, a bunch of unused swatches copy into the swatch palette for no reason! lots of "default global colors" and PMS swatches. i then have to 'select all unused' and delete them all to clean out the palette (which always seems to stall while thinking when selecting or deleting them). often times i get the global swatch warning (always 2x, not just once) before placing an object and before the whole swatch palette fills up with unused colors.
this has only happened recently in the last few months and i have been using Illustrator for years so i'm not sure what's stemming this. a new update? has anyone else noticed this problem and know a solution? is there a preference checked somewhere that i don't know about?
guess i should mention i'm on CS3 Illustrator running MAC OS 10.5.6
thanks,
kim

I've had this problem before as well and it has to do with a currupt file that your coppying from. It's too complicated to explain here so here is my fix for it.
I take the file and save it down or up in CS1. Open infected file in CS1. Create a new file in CS1 the same size as the one you've opened. Select all and drag and drop into the new empty file. Don't copy paste, it must be dragged into the file. You can then delete all global colours and save your file. The curruption will be gone. There's a way to check suspect files to see if they have the deleted global colours present. Open your suspect file in a text editor like simple text, scroll down a little way and if you see a bunch of lines of code mentioning "deleted global colours" then you know it's infected and has to be fixed.
Hope this helps
Here is another idea from a bit of research I just did. Don't know if this works or not but you might want to give it a try and it explains the issue in more detail
