Copy and Paste of Images NOT working.

When I right click on an image and choose 'copy image' and then try to paste it into my editing software, all i get is a string of text that is the location of the image as if I had chosen 'copy image location' instead. what gives?

I too was unable to copy & paste ''IMAGES'' suddenly. This function continued to work correctly in my Internet Explorer and Chrome browsers while not working in Firefox. (I WAS able to copy & paste ''''TEXT'''' however in all 3 browsers.)
As described by another poster, I would click on "Copy image" as I always did, but instead of the image appearing when I clicked paste, the ''URL'' of the image appeared instead.
My computer developed this problem suddenly yesterday after downloading and installing the newest version of Firefox, which is 12. I tried some of the suggested solutions here to no avail, but I strongly suspected the problem was with Firefox 12. To test this, I re-installed Firefox 11 and immediately my copy & paste function started to work correctly once again and I am now able to copy & paste images once again.
I will not install Firefox 12 again until Firefox corrects this problem. I need this function and do not want to have to deal with a convoluted method of saving a graphic with unnecessary extra steps, thank you. Every single time I upgrade Firefox, something is incompatible with the new version and no longer works. This is always a nuisance, especially when it is my Norton toolbar.
This time it was my copy & paste function (again, for images only.) Anyone else with this problem should re-install Firefox 11 to see if their copy & pasting of images function is suddenly restored, as mine was. Good luck! :)

  • My copy and paste functions are not working properly since iOS 8 update

    Ever since I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 4s the copy and paste function isn't working. It'll work the first time but any time I copy something else it pastes the first thing I copy. The only fix I've found is rebooting the phone but that is a pain to do every time I want to copy something and should be very unnecessary. I updated to 8.0.2 but that didn't fix it.

    Have you tried rebooting?

  • Copy and paste styles do not work in toolbar

    I cannot get the copy and paste style functions in the toolbar to work properly for Pages 5.5.   is this something not available in 5.5?
    Do I need to export my document back to Pages 4.3 to have that feature available?

    Hi Pcenginefx,
    This is expected behavior. Marking In and Out points in clip thumbnails is not supported directly in the Media Browser, you must import the clips to the Project panel first. Clips in the Media Browser cannot have metadata added to them to them (like In and Out points) until they are in the project.
    You can still open the clips from the Media Browser into the Source Monitor to set In and Out points before importing them into the project if that workflow is important to you.

  • My Copy and Paste Function is not working

    I recently upgraded to Firefox 16.02 and everything worked fine for a while but last night out of the blue my copy and paste function stopped working. As far as I know I have not done anything different. My copy paste function still works in Chrome and IE.
    I have uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox and that did not solve the problem. As we speak I am running an AV scan and I also cleared the web cache and what not in Firefox. Ran it in safe mode... nothing seems to work!
    Interestingly though, when I went to Copy and Paste the "trouble shooting info" from the clipboard to here on this page it worked fine.

  • Copy and paste are still not working even after many workarounds

    This usually happens to me randomly. I would say that there is about a 25% chance that my paste works. The copy function seems to work, but when it comes to pasting, my browser does not offer the pasting button and it stays invisible. I have disabled my firewall, disabled my antivirus, resat firefox, started in safemode, disabled all plugins, and even uninstalled and reinstalled java. I have tried everything. This is definitely a browser problem because I am able to copy and paste in any other application with out any problem. I don't like any other browser so I refuse to do so. Please help me firefox team.

    Why yes it was in fact Zonealarm's problem. Thank you very much for your answer. I will now inform Zonealarm about this issue.

  • Copy and Paste Keyboard Shortcut not working

    My copy and paste (Command C) function is not working. Tried to resent in keyboard menu, but it didn't do anything. VERY FRUSTRATING as I use this function all day long in my job. Can somebody help please?

    The 'input menu' would put a small flag on the main menu bar and allow
    you to click there, and see Keyboard Viewer, and Character Palette. A
    small keyboard will appear on the desktop and mirror all keys you use
    on the real keyboard. Or not. When they don't work in the Viewer, you
    can safely assume they don't work. (Or it is software, vs hardware.)
    Someday, when you have time and perhaps some extra hardware, you
    may consider making a backup clone of your computer contents on a
    large enough external hard disk drive to support bootable OS X clones;
    and also large enough to have more than one partition there, for extras.
    Then, do a completely new installation on a 'secure erased' hard disk drive.
    And then update it. You could migrate previous user setting info, into the
    new installation from an external drive's clone; or if you have extra discover
    time, you may find a cure to the underlying problem's cause and use the
    clone in the external hard disk drive as a backup. Maybe DiskWarrior?
    The problem in the system may be due to at least one possible malady; a
    corruption of system data, a bad block on the hard disk drive, or some other
    matter that somehow became bigger than life when combined with another.
    You may try the SafeBoot mode, repair disk permisions in Disk Utility, and
    then try reinstalling the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo update file, on top of it all.
    Then when it restarts, run SafeBoot again and re-repair disk permissions.
    (But any actual hard disk drive issue may exist and remain unattended.)
    Odd problems often are best attacked at a root level, after you have adequate
    backup; a bootable clone on supported self-powered external hard disk drive.
    Clone utilities such as SuperDuper and Carbon Copy Cloner are fine tools;
    and CCC (bombich software) has evolved to be top-notch with site support.
    Glad you were able to remap some keys; I found several links in a search on
    how to do that, and had previously posted some URLs to help someone else
    on another user forum that covered some angles of resolving keyboard issues.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I wanted the music on my Ipod Touch 3g to be on my new ipod Touch 4g and Ive been trying to do it, by trying to copy and paste but thats not working so if you have another way can you please tell me. Thanks.

    I was wondering how do you get the music on your old ipod to the new ipod?
    Because i have the Ipod Touch 3G and im getting the Ipod4G, and i was trying to get the music to go to the libary but it wouldnt transfer.Because i didnt purchase all my music i download some from other places so not all my music transferred. So i need a different way to get my music to my new Ipod. i was wondering if you just plug it in to the computer and if it would ask you to download the songs from the previous ipod im not sure so please help me out. Thanks!

    All you have to do is connect your new iPod to the computer that has the library for your old iPod.
    When iTunes comes up, click on your new iPod under Devices.
    At the top of the Summary Page click Music.
    Click Synch Music.
    Do the same thing for Photos, Apps, Movies and so on...
    Now just synch the iPod.

  • Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location.

    Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately and only if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location. A few of these images had copies in another folder that remained and the ones I couldn't find may or may not have ever had copies. I had backed up my system with time machine recently as well, so I went into the backup to retreive the lost images. When I searched and found the backup copies I got the error "the file alias cannot be opened because the original cannot be located". The crazy thing is that the images that remained on my computer did not give me the same error and opened like they should.
    In short images that I am creating, saving, and using are disapearing so epically that even time machine versions are affected when retrieval is attempted. Any suggestions as to what I could be doing wrong without realizing it? Or perhaps other people have had similar bugs that are software related and have a solution?

    Hi Kevin,
    I understand what you tried to do but it doesn't work that way. Swapping drive names will just mess things up.
    You should be able to reconnect the files though: in the Locate Referenced Files dialog make sure you click the Show Reconnect Options button — this will give you access to all the connected drives. Locate one of the files and hit Reconnect All. Should do the trick.
    Best

  • How do I copy and paste an image form the internet to Keynote. I have done this successfully in the past by selecting copy and then paste by using the right click function and now am unable to do so. I am thinking it is an outdate OS problem...not sure.

    How do I copy and paste an image from the internet to Keynote. I have done so successfully in the paste by using the copy and paste right click functions but am unable to do so now. That was about a year ago that I attempted that I was able to do this. Thank you for your help.

    Some images are copy-protected.
    If all else fails, you can make a screen shot of the image: 
    With the image visible in your browser, press CMD-Shift-4 and your cursor will change to crosshairs.
    Position the cross hairs at one of the corners of what you want to copy and drag to the opposite corner, then release the mouse. An copy of the image will be saved to your desktop.
    You can now edit and use this image.
    Be sure to respect copyrights.

    Copy and paste? What app are you using?
    When you tap on an image and select copy that usually copies the URL of the image.
    Save image copies the image to your Camera Roll.
    Most apps have an Insert choice that inserts an image from your Camera Roll into the document you are working on.
    But if you tell us which app you are using, we should be able to provide more exact info on how to get done what you want.
