Copy and paste no longer responds in iOS 8.1.2

iI've had trouble since I upgraded my iPad 3 to 8.1.2 with the copy and paste function and getting hyper links to respond.  Anyone have a solution?

Try some basic troubleshooting:
(A) Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
(B) Try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings

  • How can I copy and paste a long page here without using email?

    How can I copy and paste a long page without using email?

    Thanks for replying. Actually I want to copy/paste a recipe from a website so I can keep the recipe. On p 39 it tells how to copy/paste, which I do a lot already, but it doesn't tell where to paste it so I can access or print it whenever I want. It's kind of a long recipe. Too long to type out. Any ideas for that?

  • I want to copy and paste a long list of phone numbers into the 'to' field of messages. Ideas?

    I want to copy and paste a long list of phone numbers into the 'to' field of messaging. All it does is become one long number instead. I have even tried commas in between. Any ideas? (They are NOT contacts)

    That's not how iMessage was designed to work.  It works with your contacts.  You start typing a phone number or email address and you'll se a list of hint from auto-complete.  After you select a suggestion, start typing another address.  If the addresses you want are not in your contacts, you'll need to enter each of them manually.

  • Copy and Paste is still broken in iOS 8.1!!

    This is really ******* me off. I know there were a lot of fundamental changes to iOS 8, so I can cut Apple some slack, but this is ridiculous! It's so frustrating to copy and then paste and get OLD copy results. It's worst when dealing with long complex passwords from LastPass (which can now integrate into Safari, but not other apps). Fix this Apple!!

    We are not Apple employees. We are just other users like you are. I have no problem with copy and past in iOS 8.1, but there have been other discussions about this problem. You should look for one of those discussions for a fix, or report this as a bug to Apple.
    Here is one discussion.

    By the way, I copied and pasted those two links here on my iPad 3 running iOS 8.1.

  • My copy and paste no longer works. Any ideas?

    Hi, my copy and paste function no longer works. Even using menu rather than short cut does not work. Any ideas?

    Hello Heather:
    Your second post is "interesting." You probably are a committee of one that moves to a Windows platform from an Apple one.
    In any event, if you want help resolving your Safari problem, post back. If not, best of luck to you.

  • Everytime I try to copy and paste, Firefox stops responding. Why?

    Ever since I updated to the latest version of Firefox, if I try to copy and paste anything, Firefox stops responding. If I try to paste in another program such as Skype or AIM, that program stops responding too. What can I do to stop this?

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

  • I cannot copy and paste with my clipboard in IOS 8.1. Answers?

    I I am having trouble copying from any text to my clipboard and then pasting it into another document. The clipboard has a past copy of another line of text and it will not clear it and over right it.

    Try closing all apps and then reset your iPad and see if that has any effect on the behavior. If that doesn't help, try resetting all settings.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If you reset all settings, you will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.

  • Copy and Paste While Editing Bookmarks

    I am having a problem on my iPad 2 (ios5) copying and pasting while trying to edit bookmarks. I can copy and paste in the name of the bookmark, but cannot on the web address. This has become a problem because I would like to use a bookmarklet and I need to copy and paste the long code. Has anyone else had this issue and fixed it? The bookmarklet I am trying to use is called dotepub and it converts any web page to an epub format. I was shown this by an Apple employee and it worked great for him and will not for me. Thanks for any help.

    Hi Gil,
    Not a problem  (I actually had to Check first)
    I have not mentioned iChat 6 as I don't have a version in front of me (Although my son has Upstairs - and he was not here when I posted yesterday)
    The iChat 4 Help says
    This does require some manual dexterity.
    Defcom's solution is a lot more elegant with the features iChat has.

  • Hi, I was trying to copy and paste a lot of  info for one day on my calendar to another day and an error message popped up saying that the system responded with an error. Msg won't go away I force quit ical

    Need help for trying to unfreeze a message on my ical.  I was trying to copy and paste some appointment info from one day to another on my ical and a message popped up saying the system responded with an error.  All of my info was below the message.  I can't get that message to go away or work on the ical now at all.  I try to force quit ical and have shut down the computer and it still comes up.  Any suggestions?

    K,
    Try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To find that Library folder, if you are using Lion, use Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart.
    Next, make sure that you are not connected to the internet. Then to to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars Folder and remove any files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Use the same method as listed above to get to the correct Library Folder. Log out/in, or restart and check iCal for functionality.

  • Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust one and then have to copy and paste this length.

    Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust a text clip and then have to copy and paste this each time. Ideally, there should be something in User Preferences but there is not. Thanks.

    Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project.  And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip.  Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad."  When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as. 
    I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software.
