Copy Image command is broken.

I have just completed an upgrade to Mac OSX 10.3.9, the security update and the accompanying update to Safari to 1.3.2.
And my wife pointed this out to me... the Contol-Click "Copy Image" function is not broken, as it does not copy the image to the clipboard, but rather the URL of the image or the LINK is what gets pasted into other app.
According to Safari Help, that is NOT the correct fucntionality.
To save an image, drag it from the webpage to the desktop or a document in another application. You can also hold down the Control key and click the image, then choose Save Image To to save it as a file or Copy Image to paste it in another document.
The cntl-Click options pop-up now read:
"Save Image to the Desktop
Save Image"
This is definitely a Safari glitch, as Drag and Drop still works to move the image, not the URL or Link. I was also able to do a proper "Save As.. " with the ablility to select the destination, this in now gone as well.
Bug, or new (crappy) "feature?"
Anyone run into this, or have a fix to restore the functionality?

Ahhh... that is helpful. Gets me halfway there.
Possibly the issue is that some coding changes in either Safari or OS X have the function work correctly in 10.4.x but are glitchy in 10.3.9... ?
The same problem persists in Safari 1.3.2 (on our iBook) in 1.3.9
Ahhh.. interesting (not all apps have "Paste Special"...) Works in MS Word X, but not Appleworks. Preview "New From Clipboard" works as advertised.
Problem could just as easily be with Appleworks somewhat outdated code? 6.2.4 dates to 2002.
Thank you Tom, for giving me some avenues to investigate.

  • How to copy images from another MC in reversed order??

    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to AS3 and have been fighting and searching for a solution to this problem for a week now, and I'm VERY close!
    I crated a MC holding of a series of images (about 50) and I jump around in it using plenty AS3 scripts (most of which I don't fully understand yet, but I'm working on that to! )
    I had to find a way to "rewind" (= play backwards) the MC. Since there is a stop(); command in almost every frame, prevFrame does not work and if I put that in a loop, it goes WAY to fast (but worked).. So I could think of only one way...
    Create a new (reverserd) MC with the same image sequence ald reverse it manually and play that one.
    This all works fine (very proud of it ).
    Now my question:
    To get this to work for multiple image sequences, I have to load all images twice (once in MC_1 and again in MC_2 and select them and reverse them).
    Not a big one, unless you want to create MANY of those SWF's...
    Is it possible to load the 50 images of the first MC in reverse into the second MC dynamically? JUST the images, noting else.
    extra info: the MC_2 is already in the lib(empty) and placed on the stage.
    something like:
    var pointer:Number=1;
    for (var:i:Number=50;i>=0;i--) {
    get MC_1.picure(var);
    put it in MC_2.frame(pointer);
    pointer = pointer + 1;
    All help is welcome and please take into account that I have little experience and copy most of my scripting from people like you
    T.I.A.
    Melluw

    I tried your advice (thanks for that)
    The event I already have is the mouse leave
    I //-d out the part I removed (what did work)
    The code I ended up with is:
    function Start() {
    stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, cursorHide);
    function cursorHide(evt:Event):void {
    var currFrame = MC_1.currentFrame;
    if (CCW == true) {  //it is true in this case
      movStart = (50 - currFrame);
    else {
      movStart = currFrame;
    if (movStart>25) {
      MC_1.prevFrame();
    // removed swapChildren(MC_1, MC_2); // This is the part I removed
    // removed MC_2.gotoAndPlay(movStart);
    else {
      MC_1.gotoAndPlay (movStart);
    And if I leave the stage on the part where movStart is indeed >25
    Nothing happens,
    So I guess this is not what you meant
    Subject: Action Script 3 how to copy images from another MC in reversed order??
    I cannot direct you in the loading of the images approach, it will be too complicated, and will probably not work anyways... when you move away from a frame that has dynamic content, you lose the content.  So basically, there is nothing practical in taking that approach.
    I do niot understand what the problem will be with the enterFrame/prevFrame approach. If everything you can do with the mouse is already used (which I doubt) by the first mc, then there is nothing else you can do with this file.  You probably just need to rethink your control scheme.  You should search Google for "AS3 slideshow tutorial", and to lighten up your design, add "XML" in that search.

  • HT201302 iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer, but I want to reverse the process and copy images from my desktop Windows PC to my new iPad Mini.  Is this possible in some more direct way than through copying several

    Instead of copying images (jpgs, etc) from my iPad Mini to my desktop PC, I'd like to do the opposite, that is, copy existing images from my PC files to my Mini without going through a multi-email process which involves resizing the images by experiment.
    I hope someday Adobe Lightroom can add this feature, but I'll settle for some simple transfer, perhaps by cable between my PC and my Mini.

    You can do it via your computer's iTunes. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • Unable to COPY image without background

    An object is selected in Photoshop CS4 against a transparency background. In other words, it is isolated.
    Then the COPY command is used.
    Then it is PASTED into Illustrator CS4 but the white background appears
    (Creating a New User account in Windows did not change anything.)
    Also, selecting the object using the Rectangular Marquee tool had the same result of inserting a white background
    Operating System: Windows Vista

    Yes its works, at least on cs3 (had few days ago same problem). Another way is convert selection to path, then export it to illustrator. Then open it in Ilustrator, copy path to where its needed. Select copied image from PS (one with white background), use align palete to align both at same position and make cliping mask. Done Not fastest and easiest way, but when path needed not just transparency then it works.Of course converted path almoust always isn't ideal but you can use handmade path.

  • Safari cant copy images

    I went to amazon.com and tried to copy some of the images for the Zire 72 and paste it into an email message, but everytime it copied the image address. I set it to copy the image, and not the image address, but when I pasted into the email body, I saw the address. And no I do not currently and never plan to use Apple mail.
    I had the same problem with FireFox(which cant copy images to the clipboard anyways). To fix the problem I had to use classic Internet explorer. What a hassle.
    John

    Hi John!
    I'm not sure which images you are trying to C & P from Amazon.com, but, using Safari, I was able to copy the image found HERE, and paste it into an AOL eMail document. It was then successfully sent, and when opened, the image appeared in the body of the mail.
    Maybe I'm not quite understanding what you're trying to do.
    Position the cursor on the image.
    Press the "Control" key and hold the mouse down.
    Select "Copy Image to Clipboard".
    Open a new AOL eMail document.
    Click in the message area of the document.
    Select "Paste" from the "Edit" menu, or "Command Key + V Key.
    Your will be presented with a resizing option. Click Yes or No.
    Address your eMail and send!
    Good Luck!

  • How do you copy images from the internet and paste them on Microsoft Word

    I'm trying to copy images from the internet and trying to paste them on to Microsoft Word and Powerpoint for an assignment but it's not working. I tried to use copy and paste and then paste special but nothing is working. Saving the image onto documents and trying to open them on Microsoft Word still doesn't work.
    PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thank you

    Hi Lily, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    A screenshot can capture almost anything you're viewing. Hold the command and shift keys down, then press the 4 key and release all keys. Hold down the mouse button and drag the cursor to the size/area of the image you want to capture. Release the mouse button and you've captured the image. Remember that it is the individual's responsibility to respect copyright laws.

  • Adobe Reader 9 Mac - cannot copy images

    I upgraded to Reader 9, and another person in our office is using 8 with the same problem. We can no longer copy images out of a PDF - when we try to paste an image that appeared to be copied we only get a gray box. We've tried many ways including pasting directly into Word or Excel, choosing 'New from Clipboard' in Photoshop Elements, creating a blank Photoshop file and pasting, etc. This has works perfectly in Acrobat 5.0 and in Reader 7.0.5 (which I have gone back to using - I'm sure glad I waited before removing it from my system!).
    Any thoughts?

     I was wrong on both counts. With the help of the local Apple store, I found a solution. First, I Moved to Trash all adobe related files/folders from /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Cache and /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Preferences. When I started "Adobe Reader 9", I at least got the license agreement but again it failed with an "internal error". I then moved the /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Application Support/Adobe folder to my desktop. I was then able to start "Adobe Reader 9" successfully.
    I was having the "Internal Error" message on all my repeated installs of Reader in Mac OS 10.6 ("Snow Leopard") and this fixed it for me. The only thing I did different, was after the app finally launched without an error, I dragged all the non-Acrobat Reader folders inside of /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Application Support/Adobe back to the folder. I then re-launched Reader just to check and all was fine.
    Thanks! This fixed my Adobe Reader on Snow Leopard problem.

    I am tryin to copy image form ZABBIX to Word document. Everything was fine before update and now I am having a problem

    More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these:
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • How do I copy image from web and paste into Open Office Document

    Whenever I choose Copy Image from Safari and then paste into open office, I only get the image url and not the image. I am sure that I am not selecting Copy Image Address.

    Any thoughts?

    I have done the same thing using Firefox and it works just fine. It seems to be an issue with Safari.

  • Can I copy images from Album to Album

    Can I "copy" images from Album to Album and then expect to be able to export that data into Keynote?
    I put copy in quotes because I am such a new user I am not even sure at this point when I am copying or moving images as opposed to pointers.
    But the bottom line is that I need to know if I can use the data in Albums that I see images in for a presentation.
    Thanks.

    Aperture 3 does have a few things that work in different ways than Ap2, but dragging images to albums is the same. Cut/copy has never been a feature. It works in a different way. Allan

  • How do I copy images to buffer in Vision Builder Eval

    I have an evaluation copy of Vision Builder.
    I want to load images from files and do an image divide, yet when I copy images to the buffers, the buffers remain empty. Help!

    It sounds like you're using the Vision Builder AI eval and launching the Image Assistant tool to process your image. Buffers in the Image Assistant don't carry over to other steps. However, in one session of Image Assistant you should be able to save an image to a buffer and retrieve it in the same session. If this is not the case, then you should go to ni.com/ask to get in touch with an NI Applications Engineer.

  • How do you Automatically Copy Images From Camera?

    I would like to create an AppleScript that will run when I plug in my digital camera. Here is what I cannot figure out.
    How to make it run when the camera is plugged in.
    How tow to copy images from camera to a designated folder.
    Thanks!

    You can do all you requested - without 'AppleScript'.
    01. Connect your camera launch 'Image Capture' ('/Applications/' folder - if it does not automatically launch.
    02. Select the 'Image Capture, Preferences...' menu item.
    03. Click on the 'General' tab.
    04. From the 'Camera:' 'When a camera is connected, open:' pop up menu - select the 'Image Capture.app' menu item.
    05. From the 'Devices' menu select your camera from the menu items list. A window will appear with the title of your camera.
    06. From the 'Download To:' pop up menu select where to save the camera's photographs. You can select any folder anywhere on your hard disk drive(s).
    07. Click the 'Options...' button, and from the drop down sheet click on the 'Connection Options' 'Automatically download all items' check box - to add a check mark. There are other options you may have be interested in.
    08. Click on the 'OK' button.
    09. If you want to download the photographs now - click on the window's 'Download All' button. Or, to test the above setting changes - quit 'Image Capture' and disconnect your camera. Then reconnect the camera - and watch the above setting changes take effect.
    Note:
    The above automatic action can also happen if the storage device of the camera were inserted into a USB digital camera card reader. So long as apply the Steps above, and you select the USB digital camera card reader from the 'Devices' menu's menu item list in Step 05 above.
    'Image Capture' is not scriptable; but, may be control-able via 'tell application "System Events" to tell process "Image Capture" ....
    When a camera is connect to the Mac, the storage card of the camera is mounted onto the 'Desktop' and also listed, as an alias, in the (invisible) '/Volumes/' folder.
    Now that you know the name of the storage card ... you can create a 'Folder Action Script' (an example is presented below) and save it into the '/Library/Script/Folder Action Scripts/' folder,
    Open the '/Volumes./' folder (in 'Finder' via 'Go, Go to Folder' - enter '/Volumes/').
    Perform a right button click ('<control> - click, for single button users) on the 'Volumes' folder's window, and select 'Enable Folder Actions' (if not already).
    Rpeat the right button click (<control> click) and select 'Attach a Folder Action...' - selecting your script ('Volumes_FAS.scpt' as shown below).
    Below is a 'Folder Action Script' example - where you will have to substitute 'NO NAME' with the name of your digital camera's storage card's name.
    -- --- Save code as a script with the name 'Volumes_FAS.scpt' --- --
    on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
    set myStorageCard to "NO NAME" -- The name of my 1 GB stroage card. The name of your card may differ.
    repeat with i in added_items
    tell application "Finder" to set tName to (name of i) as string -- Obtain name of mounted storage card.
    if (tName is equal to myStorageCard) then my handle_card(i) -- If my storage card, continue processing.
    end repeat
    end adding folder items to
    on handlecard(localVolume)
    set folder_Path to ((path to desktop folder from user domain) as string) -- Path to 'Desktop' folder.
    set download_Folder to "NO_NAME Photographs" -- Name of folder to store storage card's items (files and folders).
    -- create download_Folder, if it does not exists.
    tell application "Finder" to if (not (exists folder (folder_Path & download_Folder))) then make new folder at (folder_Path as alias) with properties {name:download_Folder}
    -- Duplicate all the items (files and folders) of the storage device to the '~/Desktop/NO_NAME Photographs' folder.
    tell application "Finder" to duplicate items of local_Volume to (folder_Path & download_Folder) as alias
    end handle_card
    -- --- End of code --- --
    Review 'Finder's dictionary (in 'Script Editor') for the various ways to incorporate 'duplicate ...'.

  • Copy images to new computer, but keep settings in Aperture - How?

    My subject pretty much sums it up. I have two computers running aperture. I want to copy my images & adjustments made in Aperture, to the new computer while keeping the adjustments & ratings, etc.
    Here's the goal:
    1. Download images to my computer for backup.
    2. Copy images to External Hard Drive for Computer #2.
    3. Let assistant edit/rate photos on Computer #2.
    4. When done, copy adjustments/ratings/photos to Computer #1.
    How do I do this?
    Thanks,
    Josh
    PS. I tried just copying the referenced files to Computer #2, but it didn't keep the settings.

    In that case, if you have 2 machines, here's what I'd recommend:
    On the machine you're using for remote shoots, use a managed library (keep the shots in Aperture). On the weekly basis, export the projects from the wedding(s) you shoot in their entirety. Import them to the other machine, and at that point convert to a referenced library.
    I don't do weddings but I shoot landscape and this is how I handle managing my shots between the MacBook Pro I travel with, and the Quad G5 I use in the office.
