Copy URL in iOS8 Mobile Safari

Mobile Safari in iOS 7 had a button that would copy the full URL of a page.
Is there also a "copy URL to clipboard" button for Mobile Safari in iOS 8?  I've tried taping the "Copy" button but it does NOT copy the URL to the clipboard.  What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Sorry for Bad spelling Caused by iPad Language settings!

  • IOS8 Mobile Safari freeze/crashing for no reason

    In Safari is crashing/freezing on some occasions but there is no way to debug how. I have control over the sites source, it first looked as if it was because of a form.. Later it looked like a 'click event' now even without any events bound (but a Javascript generated ul/li list) seem to crash Safari on both iPad Retina and iPhone 5s and iPhone 5 (tested) in iOS8. Even the simulator freezes up. iOS7 does not have the problems.
    Anyone who knows exactly why Safari freezes (specific selector? specific css class?) PLEASE INFORM.
    Or even better if Apple just fixed the issue...

    Version:         5.0.5 (6533.21.1)   <  from your crash report.
    You need to update Safari to 5.1
    Click your Apple menu (top left in your screen) then click Software Update.
    If you have problems using the updater, download and install from here > Safari 5.1
    Other apps like iPhoto, iMovie, Garageband, etc are also crashing.
    Startup disk may need repairing:
    From the admin account launch Disk Utility. /Applications/Utilities
    Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If the startup disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks

  • Safari copy url button doesn't work

    I just upgraded from an ipad2 to an iPad air 2. Before, if I wanted to copy and paste a url I'd use the copy button. Now,on the new iPad air 2, the copy button just wipes out whatever I've previously copied, and doesn't copy the url.

    You tap and hold down in the URL field until you get the option to select all. Then you choose the option to select all. An option to Copy appears and you select that and then you should be able to paste that URL into a text field.
    Safari copy url button doesn't work
    I Realize that you must know the steps but I am just double checking. If that is not working for you, and you are not having copy and paste issues elsewhere in other apps, I would try clearing Safari, force close it and then reset your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    Now force close Safari. 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.
    Next, 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.

  • How do you create a login page using dashcode for the iPhone's mobile safari that will transfer you to the next page?

         Hey I have created a login page in Dashcode for a mobile safari app (aka iphone web app) and I am having trouble since I can not find any useful info about multiple pages. I don't want to use a stack layout view because it is only a login page and I need to check with a database to make sure the user's login info is correct. Right now I have it set up so that it loads another iphone web app project once it validates the info.
         The only problem with this is I am having a good bit of trouble trying to pass values from my php code to javascript or html. For some reason calling the javascript inside the php code makes the actual code inside the app not be called and same with the echo statment for the html.
    So I would like to be able to create the app in this way:
    Login page > PHP > MS SQL > PHP > UNKNOWN (if I can't get the javascript or html to output both) > Secure info on the next page
         I believe It would be a lot easier if I had the option for a multiple page but instead I am having to load up an entirely new dashcode project. If anyone knows a better way please let me know. Or if anyone knows a link to good information on passing values from php to javascript, because I couldn't get any of the code I tried to work, I would really appreciate it.

    Addendum to previous reply:
    OK.  This is weird--but I should be used to that, and just grateful that it seems to work (for now).
    What I had done is FTPd some image files to my site using Filezilla, but when I had tried to access them, I was unsuccessful.  I am almost sure that I used the same url (and variations of it) as you suggested, namely,  http://mysite.verizon.net/username/filename , and it either did not work, or gave me the "Page under construction", or, in some cases asked me for my username and password.
    But, when I did it this time, it worked.  So I probably had something off, but I can now do what I want.
    By the way, if you'll permit another question, while on the site-builder site, it said that there was a "Web Photo Manager", and said that "To download the Web Photo Manager: Open the Site Builder application and go to the All My Sites page. Click on the Web Photo Manager link (listed under Advanced Building Tools )."  I can't find it--would you happen to know where it is?
    In any case, thanks a lot for all your help--it solved my problem. 

  • No options under the distribute tab to copy url link or embed a fillable PDF form

    I Have a paid basic account is not giving me the option to under the  distribute tab to copy url link or embed a fillable PDF form? Simply put it doesn't show up for an option. I want to embed the form into my website but the embed feature is not showing up? Please help I have been at this all day.

    Based on your answer above, it sounds like you uploaded the file to your website, as opposed to the function being available from formscentral.
    If you have downloaded the file from Acrobat Pro then uploaded it to a website and had the upload pinned to a download button, then that is going to be a function of your website. Your workaround has nothing to do with formscentral itself.
    You essentially uploaded the file to your website, then made it a downloadable file. The reason it is opening in your browser is because you have the Adobe Reader/Acrobat plug-in for your browser. It's not actually "embedded". If you uninstalled all of your adobe plug-ins, then it would open Reader or Acrobat, not in the browser. The reason it only opens in Safari is likely due to the fact that you only have the Adobe Reader/Acrobat plug-in enabled for Safari, and it is disabled for the other browsers.
    I hope this makes sense!

  • Mobile Safari does not play videos

    http://naartjie.nanoson.com/movie.html
    Three videos on a simple HTML page[/URL] Check HTML source yourself - it's trivial!
    First video about Subaru plays well in Mobile Safari.
    About second Mobile Safari says, that it can't download video file! About third it says, that video can't be played.
    First I thought that video format is wrong, but! If all that 3 videos send via email to iPhone or upload to iDisk and use iDisk.app, all they can played without any errors! So what is my mistake? Are there any more strict limitations on video in HTML for Mobile Safari?

    K T, I'm not sure what you're talking about, but since this WORKED on the iPad but DID NOT work on ANY other version of Safari (including the iPhone/iPod version), I don't think that could possibly be the issue. Now, what it COULD be is that I processed these videos on an old PowerMac with Final Cut Studio 1 (so Compressor 2, not Compressor 3) . . . but I thought the H.264 standard has been unchanged for seven years, right? If so, I don't see how that could be it either. But I don't know much about this stuff.
    Would compressing the file for "streaming" rather than "download" on an older version of Compressor do anything to the resulting file that would somehow make it incompatible with Safari? And maybe they just tweaked the **** out of the iPad for the big launch and caught that bug, but haven't fixed it on other platforms yet? Like I said, I don't know much about this stuff, but that's the only thing I can think of that made the videos I processed, uploaded, and tested any different than the videos that WORK on all versions of Safari.
    To clarify, all the videos I have processed myself ONLY work on the iPad. Videos I download from the Internet, then upload and test with the exact same code, work on all up-to-date versions of Safari (and Chrome too).

  • Is Mobile Safari's in-app multitasking (audio stream in one tab, browsing in another) gone for good?

    I cannot remember the last iOS version this feature actually worked, but in the past, I used to be able to open a tab in Mobile Safari, begin streaming audio from a website, pinch in to bring up standard UI again, and then open up another tab within Safari itself and continue to browse the web. All the while the streaming audio is still playing in the background.
    Now (and actually for the last few iOS versions, it's been a while), you cannot browse Safari while listening to a Safari audio stream at the same time. To me this makes no sense at all, because it's just a simple backgrounding concept. I can go off and use any other app on my phone, but not Safari itself.
    There ARE a few ways to kind of trick Safari into allowing you to browse and listen, but it's a poor workaround. You can go to the website, tap-and-hold on the stream URL, then select Open in Background. Doing so will begin the stream and keep you in the current webpage and then allow you to open more tabs.
    HOWEVER, if you ever select that audio stream tab, you can't control it consistently, and most of the time you'll get stuck in that tab and your solution is broken.
    For YEARS I've been waiting for Apple to fix this silly limitation with each new iOS release, but every time I find that it's never fixed. I'm just surprised that I don't hear more people complaining about it, because it's been a huge source of frustration for me for so long.
    Does anyone else experience this frustration or know if this is intentional (which would be enormously depressing if Apple purposely designed these functions) or if there are any better solutions to it than what I've come up with?

    Thanks for the heads up.
    Odd that I can't just email their support department.
    I'll post back with my results.

  • Issue closing mobile safari's top webpage

    Hi everyone,
    I'm a webdeveloper and I'm facign some problems using JavaScript.
    I have a routine that opens the navigator and reconfigure it(remove some bars, resize the navigator and another small things), it runs ok when I use Safari for PC and for Mac, but the situation doesn't repeat in Mobile Safari for iPad.
    When I try to run the same routine in iPad, the page blinks and close itself when I allow the pop-up manager to open the webpage, I read in the internet that some navigators don't allow to close the pages that aren't opened by script, for example(window.open("url")).
    How can I handle it?
    I tried to use this alternatives:
    - window.close()
    - self.close()
    - this.close()
    - top.close()
    - self.window.close()
    - function anyfunction(){
         window.open('', '_self', '');
            window.opener = 'x';
            window.close();
    Please, can anybody help me?
    Thanks in Advance!

    I have the same issue on my phone and I think it may due to the latest software upgrade. I use to be able to add a safari shortcut on my home page by hitting the "+" key and then tapping on "Add to Home Screen". However this function is no longer available on my phone. My wife's phone still has it because she has not upgraded her software yet. I have restored my phone as a new phone but that did not solve the problem either. Would appreciate any help from the forum.

  • Mobile Safari mail link to doesn't show Exchange group

    Has anyone noticed that while attempting to forward a URL from mobile Safari (iPhone/iPad), the composed message doesn't show Exchange contact groups?
    If you have an Exchange contact group:
    From Safari, try to Mail Link to this Page, then select the + icon in the To field in order to bring up contact groups. I haven't been able to forward a URL from Safari to an Exchange address book recipient.
    Other applications do expose the Exchange group: Photos and the Mercury browser, for example.
    iPhone 4 (ATT), version 4.3.3. Not sure what version of Exchange, but it's at least 2007. Windows Live group doesn't show, either, FWIW.

  • Disable AirPlay in Mobile Safari

    I see a lot of questions about enabling AirPlay, but I actually need to disable it for certain videos I have on my site. I found Apple's guide on doing this in HTML5 at http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AudioVideo/Conceptual/AirPl ayGuide/AirPlayGuide.pdf. However, when I did what it said to opt out (x-webkit-airplay="disallow") it didn't disable AirPlay at all. I found other sites that suggested using the word "deny" instead of "disallow" and if I do that, I still have AirPlay but the audio only. However, when I push that to my Apple TV via AirPlay, it exposes the stream URL instead of any "nice" metadata; this is a live stream using .m3u8.
    So my questions are:
    Is there any way to truly remove AirPlay entirely via HTML5 and Mobile Safari? (I know there are bookmarklet hacks to re-enable it but we're looking at the common user in this scenario, who won't think of that.)
    If the best I can do is disable the video push, which is acceptable, is there any way to control what Apple TV shows on screen for the audio track?
    Thanks.

  • Copy URL Problem

    Hi
    When I select 'Copy URL' to send the page to another browser on my iPod Touch, it doesn't always copy the entire link.
    For example, if I carry out a Google search and then copy the URL across to another browser (e.g. Opera Mini or Safari), it only takes me to the Google main page, not the search result page I've just created.
    Another example is when I copy a forum page link. Again, it doesn't copy the entire URL and I am often told that the page I requested does not exist.
    Am I doing something wrong, or is this some kind of bug or limitation?
    Thanks.

    I can be playing my favorite games, or voting on abc and other things. Abox comes up and says your url is not valid. This happens a lot. What's wrong? If this doesn't start working, I am going to change my browser.

    That crash is caused by a bug. The easiest way to recover from it seems to be to install Safari 6; however, Software Update won't find it and there's no official download link. Unofficially, you can download the update from here:
    http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/37/23/041-5058/lr5tynbldi18zcrqo8a8uq88 rnjushqliu/Safari6Lion.pkg
    If you don't have a working web browser and can't download the file on another device, proceed as below. You should have received a notification of this message in email. Retrieve that notification in Mail. If you don't get email notifications, mail a copy of this message to yourself.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    In your mail client, triple-click the line below to select it, then drag or copy into the Terminal window — do not type — and press return:
    cd Desktop; curl -O http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/37/23/041-5058/lr5tynbldi18zcrqo8a8uq88 rnjushqliu/Safari6Lion.pkg
    The update package will download to your Desktop. When the download is complete, a new line ending in a dollar sign ("$") will appear below what you entered. Quit Terminal and double-click the package file.

  • Since updating my iPad 2 to ios8, it safari has been slow and crashing and some of the apps acting wierd. The password app doesn't work at all so had to find another way of retrieving all my passwords. Very very dissapointing

    Since updating my iPad 2 to ios8, it safari has been slow and crashing and some of the apps acting wierd. The password app doesn't work at all so had to find another way of retrieving all my passwords. Very very dissapointing. It appears from these forums that a lot of people are having the same problems wit this latest update.

    Hi erastyle,
    Actually the Licensing information for the package is missing hence it is not launching any applications. You need to Reserialize the products using APTEE which you can find it on the Machine where you have created the package. If you dont have the access to that Machine then please download and install Creative Cloud Packager and it will download APTEE in the below mentioned location.
    Windows:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP\utilities
    Once downloaded please follow this KB article to use the Tool.

  • Image Won't Display In Mobile Safari

    I'm developing a website, it validates properly, and it works perfectly in Chrome, FireFox, Internet Explorer, and Desktop Safari. The only problem that I'm having with it is in Mobile Safari for iOS. I have a div element with an <img> tag inside it. On a desktop browser, it will show it. However, iOS will display a missing image icon instead. This only occurs on iOS. You can test it out yourself by going to http://covu.optini.com first in your desktop browser and then again in your Mobile Safari browser. Could anyone please give me some insight as to why this would be happening? Thanks. All the other images display correctly in Mobile Safari.

    Update: It works perfectly on iOS5 Mobile Safari. It isn't working on iOS 4.3.3's Safari.
    I hate to double post, but the edit button wasn't showing up.
