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 short cut keys stopped working

Im not too sure when it happened, but "command C, command x and command V" don't work. I can highlight and go up to the menu bar, select copy, then select paste and it will work. I can't add a custom shortcut for copy, cut and paste. Any suggestions on how to fix this???

I've shut down and restarted my computer over and over. Whenever Im done using it. That obviously hasn't fixed the issue.
I'm sorry in regards for my "future posts" I don't see a spot to add my hardware. I'm working on a Macbook. Isn't that a notebook?

How to disable copy and paste in a field and allowing user to key in the data in that field...

Hi all,
I need your help on the below scenario.
I have to stop user to copy and paste the data into the field. But allowing user to enter the data in that field.
Please suggest.
Thanks and Regards,
Thiru.

Hi thiru
It sounds like you want a to write a PJC component to extend a forms text item that will capture and eliminate the key strokes and mouse actions used to copy and past thus preventing a user from performing this action. There are many examples on the interent of how this can be written e.g. the Oracle Forms PJCs/Java Beans web site. You will need to have jdeveloper to write thise bit of code. Oracle forms also has a tutorial on how to plug the JAR file you generate into your for sessions.

Copy and Paste WLAN password (PSK-key) on E7-00

It took quite long to find out how the 128 character password of my private WLAN can be copied and pasted in the PSK-key field. Now I found the (not documented) solution and would like to share it with other users.
Simply press and hold the Shift key (in any text window) and you'll see the "Paste" button on the screen.
To copy the password to the clipboard you can transfer the password (by email, sms or in a text file) on your E7-00. Then mark the password using your keyboard (Shift + arrow key), press and hold the Shift key and you'll see the "Copy" button.
I hope that Google finds this instruction!
Here is the German version:
Kopieren und Einfügen eines WLAN Passwortes (PSK-Schlüssel) beim Nokia E7-00:
Nach langem Suchen fand ich (zufällig) die nicht dokumentierte Lösung, wie man ein Passwort mit 128 Zeichen in das Feld PSK-Schlüssel einfügen kann.
Unter >Einstellungen>Verbindungen>Einstellungen>Ziele>Internet>"Netzwerkname">WLAN Sicherheitseinstell.>PSK-Schlüssel öffnet man das Eingabefenster für den Schlüssel. Dann drückt und hält man die Großschreibtaste bis die Schaltfläche "Einfügen" sichtbar wird.
Um das Passwort vorher in die Zwischenablage zu kopieren, überträgt man es per Email, SMS oder Dateitransfer in einer Textdatei, die man mit der Quickoffice-Anwendung öffnet. Dann markiert man den Text mit Hilfe der Tastatur (Großschreibtaste + Pfeiltasten) und hält anschließend die Großschreibtaste gedrückt, bis die Schaltfläche "Kopieren" eingeblendet wird.

O_O - that´s one for RTFM ;-) No, obviously I haven´t. As I said elsewhere, I had it for just a couple of weeks and I didn´t yet have too much time to study the manual in all detail. Sorry ´bout that!

Hendikoischnur
OK, now I have downloaded the manual in German as pdf. Now I only need to install the Adobe Reader, then I can read it on the mobile itself.
I guess that with that Pencil Key, I could also copy contact data from any document I have on the phone to my contact list?

Nokia E71x Copy and Paste Wireless Key

I have my long and obscure WEP encryption key for my wireless network in a text document on my phone. I can open the document and copy the key, but it won't let me paste it into the "Pre-Shared Key" input box.
Can the OS copy and paste between different applications?
Thanks.

Command key not working for copy and paste

Hi everyone!Copy and paste doesn't work when I use the command key on my new macbook pro.Any ideas how to fix this?If I use the toolbar it works fine

Are you sure you are using Command+C and Command+V.
Works fine on my MBP Lion 10.7.2 in all applications.
You could also try using the Space bar and the Shift and Enter/Return keys when asking a question.

Two-key copy and paste on E51?

I want to be able to cut and paste texts in all screen, in all applications, not only Notes, Contacts, but also in web browser, etc.
Is there any third-party software for this? E.g. you press *1 to copy and *2 to paste, or similar?

Hi princess,
Check the Edit menu, where you'll find Cut, Copy and Paste, as well as variations of Paste in some applications. Where there is a keystroke combination to do the same thing, you will find it listed in the menu beside the menu command, Here's my Edit menu in Pages:
Yours will be missing the starred key stroke set by Paste and Match Style. This is a custom one, taking advantage of OS X permitting the creating of keystroke combinations for top level menu items without one assigned.
One handy set to memorize is the Z X C V series. With the command key, these are Oops!, Cut, Copy and Paste.
If you've used keyboard shortcuts in Windows, you will find that many of the Mac ones are the same, but use the command key where MS uses the control (ctrl) key.

Barry
PS: A minor rewording on Niels instructions for using the modifier keys. When I gave instructions essentially the same as his to my grade four and five students, I found many of them stabbed at the two (or more) keys, trying to press both at exactly the same time, an almost impossible task. When I revised the instructions to those below, most of the errors disappeared.
command-C: This means 'press and hold the command key, tap and release the C key, then release the command key.
shift-command-A: Press and hold the shift and command keys, tap and release the A key, then release the two modifier keys.
In general: Press the modifier keys (shift, command, option, control—whichever is called for—in any order, holding it/them down, then press/tap the action key (usually a letter), then release the action key, then release the modifier keys.

Copy and past key frames?

I have 2 sequence that are the same.
Is it possible to copy and past the video filters from one clip in one sequence to same clip in the other sequence? And have the key frames in the correct place?
I’m trying to do this but its not staying in sync with the sequence what I mean is the key frames are in the wrong place. I’m opening the clip in one sequence going to the filter tab coping the filter with the key frames and then when I past in to the second sequence the key frames are in the wrong place.

For Kevan,
I only was getting confused by you saying:
...you click on clip/control-c/select 'paste attributes'....
- 'click on clip', I do understand
- 'Control-C' does nothing on my keyboard (standard layout).
So I supposed you meant 'Control-Click' which brings up a pop-up menu (or what's the good name for that) which gives me a variety of options ('open in viewer', 'item properties', 'send to...', etc) including 'paste attributes'. And because that's the next thing you advised:
- Select 'paste attribute'...
...I assumed you meant to say 'Control Click' (Or Right click on a 2- or 3-button mouse.)
edit: This pop-up, I think, is called 'contextual menu', not 'pop-up'
So If on your setup Control-C does the same as Control Click, then you've probably set up your keyboard for that. If this is the only 'problem' you have I wouldn't even consider trashing prefs...

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
volume controls issues are windows, not firefox.

Change dimension constraints key after copy and paste

How do I change the dimension constraint key after I copy and paste or after the dimension is created? The reason is that the dimension I copy and paste has constraints named as "COPY_OF_RP_MERCHANT_UK" (I would like to be remove the COPY_OF)

Right-click on the dimension and select Editor. In the editor, click on the Edit menu and select Table Properties. Click on the constraints tab and rename the constraints.

The MacBook Pro will not allow me to cut-and-paste to and from or to click-and-drag to the external drive. I can copy-and-paste, but then I must send the original to the trash, which doubles the time and effort. Is there any way to cut-and-paste?

I have recently switched from a PC to a MacBook Pro.
I have a large number of documents and photographs on a multiterrabite external drive, backed up on a second multiterrabite external drive.
Both external drives are formatted for MacIntosh. This has been verified by agents at an Apple store and also at Best Buy in two different cities.
This is the problem:
The MacBook Pro will not allow me to cut-and-paste to and from or to click-and-drag to the external drive. I can copy-and-paste, but then I must send the original to the trash, which doubles the time and effort. Is there any way to cut-and-paste?
Also, the MacBook Pro will not allow me to rename multiple documents or photographs. I can click-and-rename a single one, but this is impossibly time consuming. I can batch-rename in iPhoto, but when I transfer the photographs to the external drive, the rename does not transfer.
I’m reduced to using my wife’s Toshiba to cut-and-past, rename, and transfer documents. It works perfectly. Is there any way to do this on the MacBook Pro?
Thanks!

No, this is a philosophical difference between Apple and Microsoft. Apple believes that it's dangerous to cut a file in case the user never pastes it; in that case the file is lost. Microsoft seems to not have this problem (if I remember Windows correctly) because they don't delete the originating file if it's cut but never pasted.
Even though Macs have a lot of keyboard shortcuts, philosophically Macs have traditionally been mouse-first. This applies to file copy operations. In your case, what a Mac user would do is open the source window, open the destination window (on your second drive), and then Command-drag the selected files from the source to destination window. This is because a normal drag would leave the originals behind, while adding the Command modifier key tells OS X that this is a Move, not a Copy, so don't leave the originals behind.
(In addition there are different rules for drag-copying within the same volume or between different volumes. If you drag between two folders on the same volume, the files are moved. If you drag between different volumes, the files are copied unless you hold down Command to delete the copies on the source volume.)

Two problems in this case. First, batch file renaming is not built into OS X unless you build something with Automator. However, there are many utilities that can do batch file renaming which you can find at macupdate.com or on the App Store. Since I work with media I often batch rename using one of the media managers I have lying around like Media Pro or Adobe Bridge (comes with Photoshop).
iPhoto is a database front end designed to shield the file system from the consumer and let them concentrate on creativity and sharing. As such it is often a poor choice for managing files directly. When you "transferred the photographs" chances are you moved the originals, not the ones iPhoto edited which are stored in a hidden folder.

There will not be a way to do it exactly like Windows. As described above, there are ways to do it "the Mac way." If it is possible to remove judgment on which way is "better" you might find the Mac way to be acceptable, but of course sometimes we simply prefer what we're used to.

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.

HT201269 itunes cannot see my iphone backup. I have a backup of the backup on an external HD, but even tech support cannot figure this one out. I copy and paste backups into the correct folder but itunes still does not see it. All I need are my contact

Sorry for short novel I am writing. I just wanted to cover as much backround as possible.
So, here it goes. I backed up my iphone 4 after renting a movie. The movie only played the starting credits before I was called on for daddy duty. A few days later the movie would not play, so I restored my phone from my backup. The movie would still would not play so itunes support refunded my purchase and ended my viewing privileges for that rental after verifying that I had not viewed the movie. I then had a problem with my contacts showing up twice in the contacts list after the restore. So I attempted another restore. All was well at this point. I then started having trouble with my pc and decided to copy the internal drive to an external source. A week later I had a system failure and did a factory restore on my computer. I re-installed itunes and tried to copy and paste the old backup into the new itunes. Now itunes just flat out does not see the backup file (I failed to mention that I did a factory reset on the iphone after the last backup, hopping to start fresh). Tech support had me uninstall and re-install itunes and then copy and paste the old backup into the newly installed itunes with no luck. The files are all there, but itunes just doesn't see them (itunes says the device has not been backed up to the cloud or to the local machine). We then tried backing up the factory restored iphone and replacing that restore file with one of my old backups on the external drive. Ok, this is where it gets weird. We replaced the guts of the folder but left the folder itself so itunes would continue to recognize the new backup folder with the old files. Whoohoo, itunes now see's a backup folder full of old files, or so we thought. The new files were deleted using shift delete so they would be gone for good and not mix with any files or folders. When I restore my phone, it restores the files that were deleted from the restore file (pause here for a moment and imagine the stupid look on the face of tech support and I while we silently wonder how files that were permanently deleted were restored). This left tech support and I both scratching our heads. My service issue was escalated to the next level. I waited for the phone call the next day that was scheduled at 10am to my wife's phone, but the call never came through. As usual, apple disappoints again. I just bought an iphone 5s and still have the iphone 4, and am looking for a solution to retrieve my contacts and restore to the 4 or 5s. I am guessing that files in other folders must be associated with the iphone backup in order for itunes to retrieve the files. Any ideas or support in retrieving my contacts would be greatly appreciated.

[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.
