Copy and paste - random cip

Hi. When using the copy and paste functions, I get the clip I wanted to copy PLUS A RANDOM CLIP every time I paste, the same random clip. It's as though the random clip is stuck in FC's copy function. Any idea what's happening and how to purge the random clip once and for all?

trash preferences? Or have you already done that?

Random auto copying and pasting after 10.6.6 update

Since I upgraded to 10.6.6, I've been seeing random copy and paste behavior. If I leave my mouse in a text box and wait a little bit, the Mac pastes my clipboard. If I select some text, the Mac copies it without me telling it to. Any clue what's going on?

The first thing i would usually try with a display issue is on the Macbook try resetting the Parameter RAM (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379) to help the graphics cards communicate with the external display.
If it's still happening it might be the connection or the actual Cinema Display so Thomas' questions are definitely a good next step.

HT5569 Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an iPad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password protected network? (the password is 31 random characters)

Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an ipad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password proctected newwor? (the password is 31 random characters)

Yes, if both the Mac and iPad are setup using the same iCloud account, then any notes you enter on the Mac will be synced across to the iPad almost instantly.
Same occurs with the 1Password app I mentioned. If you have both the Mac and iPad versions of it, and setup either iCloud or Dropbox syncing, any passwords entered on the Mac will be synced to the app running on the iPad ready for copying and pasting. This would be the most secure method, but not the cheapest.

Right - left scroll in editor makes mouse jump randomly when trying to copy and paste

Hello,
Please see attached screen and the red are in bottom right corner
A right and left scroll bar keeps appearing, I have word wrap turned on. The scroll is very tiny, and I can make it temporarily go away by playing with the widow width, but it always jumps back.
Why this is irritating is because when i try copy and paste text, it makes the view jump to top of page. How can I make it so it never has a right and left scroll ever!

Good day!
use arrow key to move object around but can only do up/down and right left and not foward and backward.
What do you mean?
Could you please post a screenshot to illustrate the issue?
While Photoshop has accumulated 3D features with the last few versions it is originally a 2D image editing program and for a basic Layer there is no »forward« and »backward« (save for the Layer Structure as indicated in the Layers Panel).

How do I copy and paste multiple keyframes?

I've used previous versions of Final Cut in the past, but primarily have done my editing with Adobe Premiere. One of the companies I am freelancing for only has Final Cut X on their machines. I'm a bit confused about keyframes. Keyframing in the inspector seems severely limited. I could use some help.
Basic example: Say I want to zoom and pan into an image... then have it sit there for 5 seconds... then zoom and pan back to its original location. I can't figure out how to do this at all with Final Cut X.
In Premiere I would accomplish this extremely easily.
#1 I'd set my playhead at the location I'd like START my zoom IN/pans and set all my necessary keyframes.
#2 Then i move my playhead to where I'd like to END my zoom IN/pans, change all my parameters and this sets my necessary keyframes.
#3 I move my playhead further to where I'd like to START my zoom OUT/pans to where it originally was... and set all my necessary keyframes
#4 I move my playhead to where I'd like END my zoom OUT/pans to where it originally was... and simply copy and paste my keyframes from step 1...
The reason why I copy and paste my keyframes from step 1 is because often my parameters are very specific. I'm not necessary zoomed in 100% at the beginning with my position set exactly where it needs to be. Say, for instance, I'm working with an image that is zoomed at 75% and perfectly positioned at some random position somewhere in my frame... without the ability to cut and paste keyframes, I'd have to go back to keyframe 1 and write down all the parameters... then go to keyframe 4 and re-enter them. Massive pain in the butt.
How is this properly accomplished in Final Cut X? I can't even see my keyframes on the timeline... every tutorial I've found just says "set keyframe 1 and keyframe 2 in the inspector" and that's incredibly limiting.

That is kind of a bummer, really. Maybe I'll need to adjust my workflow, but it seems like it's a MASSIVE drawback of Final Cut X.
For example:
Say I have an image on the screen at with Postion X: 97.3px and Position Y: -69.3px with the zoom set to 136.3%... (keyframe 1)
And say I want to move that image across the screen to Postion X: 32.5px and Position Y: -23.5px with a zoom set to 85.3% ... (keyframe 2)
Then say I want to let it stay in that position for 10 seconds ... after 10 seconds I'll set more keyframes by clicking the appropriate keyframe buttons and the settings will once again be set for Postion X: 32.5px and Position Y: -23.5px with a zoom set to 85.3% ... (keyframe 3)
Now say I want it to go back to the original position and zoom.   In premiere I'd just highlight all my keyframes from Keyframe 1 and paste at the new location of the playhead... with Final Cut X, i'll need to go back to Keyframe 1 and literally write down on a piece of paper: 97.3, -69.3, 136.3% ... then go back to Keyframe 4 and type them all out.   This is just a simple example, though.   The more individual parameters I'm setting at specific points... the bigger pain this will be.   Lame.
Even with the link you shared... it appears to be completely amature compared to the keyframe editing capabilities of Premiere Pro. In searching a bit on google to confirm the lack of features, I found someone else complaining:
"You cannot expand any parameter that has more than one attribute (like crop or scale or position) - making it useless.
You cannot add bezier handles to keyframes
You cannot copy and paste keyframes
When you copy and paste attributes, you have no choices as to how they will be pasted, etc... it is dismal.
All in all, it is a step backwards from FCP"
Personally, I'm a bit surprised... the more I learn about Final Cut X, the more I am starting to like it. I know a lot of professionals hated it when it initially came out, but I chaulked it up to unfamiliarity with the new software.   For me, this keyframing thing is by far the biggest drawback I've found to yet.

Hi Gary,
I have seen this issue occur with users who have this registry setting missing or have improper permissions.
When you double click the attachment to launch the pdf it is saved and opened from the temporary folder unless saved specifically to a location.
If you dont have the below mentioned registry key or improper permissions then attachments fail to open.
Please heck if the following reg key exists:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
Value Name: OutlookSecureTempFolder
If the value exists, and if the value contains a valid path, Outlook 2010 uses that location for its temporary files.
If the registry value does not exist, or if the value points to an invalid location, Outlook 2010, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2003 creates a new subdirectory under the Temporary Internet Files directory and then puts the temporary file in the new subdirectory. The name of the new subdirectory is unknown and is randomly generated, depending on your version of Outlook.
Please check the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
Note the location for: OutlookSecureTempFolder key
Check if the same folder exists in the following location and if not create a corresponding folder in the location on C:\Users\<User account name>\Appdata\Local\Software\Microsoft\Windows\......

Cannot solve the problem of not being able copy and paste in firefox. I have tried removing appInit.dll, new profiles, etc. with no luck. What is the problem?

I have not been able to copy and paste in firefox for the last two months. My research on the topic has led me to try the disabling all plugins, creating a new profile in safe startup, I removed appInit_dlls from my registry, could not find pushowxx adware, installed lastest version and updates of firefox, etc. All to no avail.

Problems copying and pasting text on Ipad

since updating to iOS 8, when I use the Touch and hold copy function to copy text, it sometimes pastes the correct text and sometimes pastes text that I had copied a long time ago.
For example, I touch and hold some text until the black "copy" option appears, I copy an address from eg. Mail and paste it into Maps and it might work, but when I then copy a different text like a name and paste it, it will paste the address from before.
It seems to be completely random regardless of which apps I am copying from or pasting to. Any answers would be appreciated!

Yep, it's a feature that Apple announced called "Intelligent Text Selection". It's supposed to make it easier to copy columns of paragraphs of text from a multi-column document and keep the paragraphs in the right order when pasted into a new document.
It works perfectly if you actually have a newsletter or other multi-column document and want the paragraphs to stay in order. You are seeing an unintended result. The new "Advanced Artificial Intelligence" is not properly analyzing your document.
Intelligent text selection has been added in Preview. This has to do with the app's ability to select text in PDFs. In the current version of Mac OS X, selecting text in PDFs is not always logical. For example, if you have three text columns and just need to select the text in one of them, you may not be able to do it. "Advanced artificial intelligence" included with Snow Leopard "analyzes each PDF document to understand the structure of its words, paragraphs, columns, and visual layout and create a map of the document’s organization," Apple reveals. "Preview uses this information to help you accurately target the text you want to copy and paste, even if the text is in columns."
It would be nice to be able to turn this 'feature' off:

Copy and paste from word to InDesign - foreign characters

Hello,
I have a Word file using foreign typefaces, Chinese, Korean etc. I have the fonts on my machine because the word document shows them OK..but, if I try to copy and paste the text into InDesign, those characters either don't show at all, or you just get the pink color with the little gray squares...Does anyone out there have any tips for how to handle this type of situation.
Thanks!!
babs

Ooooh, okay. I retract my finger-waggling cautionary statement.
It could be one of a number of different things. I almost always place instead of copy/paste, but I don't have any difficulty copying & pasting complex script text of any sort in any of my various versions and platforms. I'd figure that there are two different possible routes - either there's something about the styling or clipboard that is doing this (meaning that it could be unpacked exactly the same way as any font drop, no complex-script knowledge necessary) or there's something about the non-Latin text itself that is causing the problem. Take a look at the clipboard settings (Edit -> Preferences -> Clipboard Handling) to see if changing those settings resolves the issue, by e.g. changing the settings to raw text.
If that doesn't work, I'd suggest posting a lot more detail. Platform, versions of Word and Indy, the particular fonts that are failing, a description of how styles are set up in the current Word and Indy docs, perhaps a sample of the Word and Indy docs zipped up and made available for testing (e.g. if I can successfully copy/paste into the doc when your user can't, then there's something wrong with the user's install), and so on. Without that kind of information, the best I can do is take random guesses.

Ios8 copy and paste / Digital AV Cable / internet dropping and other bugs!

hello -
so like everyone else else there is a number of bugs I am running into. so here's my list- Yes I've tried to restore, so I am praying that the ios8 update will contain these fixes:
- copy and paste doesn't work between applications- but it's sporadic! (issue originally found when copying from a webpage to an email, then into notes from another webpage)
- my Apple lighting to digital AV cable doesn't "read/transfer" to the TV
- internet randomly drops for a few seconds to minutes for no apparent reason the it being an iPhone 6
- Facebook and other internet heavy apps like Associated Press are extremely lagging or give me an error unable to connect to server
- randomly freezes while taking pictures or taking notes- it won't even let me shut down
- voicemail set up doesn't work
I am sure there are more bugs but haven't seen them or I've forgotten about them! If anyone else has these problems please check the box that you do have the same issue. Also any known resolutions would be appreciated!
With Joy,
Christina

Another file?
Do you mean folder? Inside or outside iPhoto?
I'm trying to copy photos to a Sony Digital Photo Frame.
Select the photos you want to use.
Export them to a folder on the Desktop. File -> Export
Add that to the device.

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 WiFi WPA key in Lucid

How can I copy and paste a 63 character WiFi WPA key in the LG Lucid phone? The key is totally random and the chances of typing it correctly are slim at best. The WPA standard allows up to 63 character for a key. I would like to put a file on the SD card via usb and then somehow paste the key into the correct WiFi setup field. Seems to be a pretty basic capability ...
Thanks.

I'm not familiar with Polaris Office, but perhaps it doesn't read .txt files. If it reads .doc files (MS Word documents), you could just put the key into that kind of file and put it on the SD card for Polaris to open.
The trick with copying and pasting on Android phones is, as Tidbits said, to tap and hold the text. That might bring up a menu offering the option to select a word or select all, and then if you choose Select Word a rather goofy and awkward-looking pair of pointers that you drag to move the beginning and end of the selection. Or it might bring up the pair of pointers directly, and tapping on them will give you an option to select word or all. In any case, once you've got the text selected with the pointers, it will then offer options to copy or cut the text. Frankly, with my clumsy fingers it's taken me several months to develop any skill at this at all.
Of course, in this case choosing Select All would be simplest, if all there is in the file is the WPA key.
You may only have to do this once. On my Samsung Stratosphere, once I had logged onto my home WiFi one time the procedure has been automatic ever since, and the connection occurs seamlessly and quickly.
Good luck!

Copy and paste stopped working...

My Copy and Paste function works on and off, sometimes not at all.
The problem has been around for months.
I have a 2008 13inch Macbook Pro
running Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5
HELP!!
If it is at all relevant, frequently, and for way longer than my Copy & Paste has been malfunctioning, my keyboard randomly jumps th cursor position...

If you haven't already done so, log out or restart the computer and see whether there's an improvement.

Synchronize settings and copy and paste settings not working LR 4.1

Recently upgraded to LR 4.1.
The copy and paste settings and also synchronize setttings in LR 4.1 has stopped working.
Rebooted, nothing new added
AMD Phenom II X6 1100T 3.60gh
16 GB ram
64 bit

I am also seeing issues in 4.1 with Synchronize settings. I'll giove an example:
Select all images, change the white balance in most selected image, Click "Sync..." have only the "white balance" check box checked, click Synchronize biutton. All images in that folder appear to have synched, but looking more closely, some of the images did not get the white balance setting applied - this is really random also. Had the same issue trying to sync exposure across all images in a folder - 150ish images.
Never seen this in any version of LR prior to 4.1 - I have had them all since 1.2.
I am running Windows 7 x64 8GB on i7 920.
Hopefully Adobe are investigating this issue.

I want to believe...that mac and PC OS can integrate fully...copy and paste

I would love it if I never had to use the windows OS ever again.
but since I have to use hyperlinks in emails, Leopard can't print anything, and for some old software i use intermittently to deal with others less fortunate not to have upgraded with the new programs, I have to.
Had been pretty happy using a windows 2000 OS under parrallels, but poof, it went away. gone, nothing to indicate,that it had ever existed. So I am setting up my windows XP parrallels to replace it. One thing it won't do is copy and paste text or images between the windows and mac OS.
I used to use fusion, and I recall the copy and paste worked there pretty well, but it crashed upon Leopard awaking, no fixing it.
There's got to be a solution, simple or store bought out there to integrate the simplest things like copy and paste, but I don't know what it is.
any help?

its just so random the things that can copy and paste between the 2 systems. But mixing Operating systems seems the only way to get some programs to work correctly, especially when CS3 is concerned. as a workaround, if one program i want to paste something in to doesn't work, just open some unrelated program and copy and paste from there. Why can't they all just get along?
