Copy URL to clipboard

Having switched from Mozilla to Safari I am finding a small frustration copying a web address (URL) from the Safari address field to the clipboard. With Mozilla one click in the field would select the whole address - which is then easily copied with Command-C.
After some experimenting I found that to do this in Safari you need to click anywhere in the address field, then Control-click anywhere in the address. This (usually) selects the address and gives you a menu that includes the choice COPY. For some reason right-clicking my two button mouse is more reliable than Control-clicking the address.

I find that I can hover the mouse over a link in Safari and right click on my trackball and the contextual menu pops up which includes "Copy Link". I am getting the same behavior in OmniWeb which I also have open at the moment. When I have my trackball plugged in I do not have to Control-Click, although I could if I wanted.

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!

Copy Adobe video lessons (copy URL) and watch them again?

I copied a short Adobe video lession I really liked by right cliking and selecting COPY URL. Now I don't know where the video went or how to find and watch it again. Does anyone know how to do this or in general how to find,copy and wathc certan lessions?

The URL went to your clipboard. In order to preserve it, you need to paste it somewhere, like Notepad and save the file, otherwise it gets overwritten once you copy something else or (of course) turn off the computer.
For easy tagging and "Read/watch later" functionality, I prefer Pocket : https://getpocket.com/

Signed Applet JTextField copy to system clipboard

Hi all,
We have a signed and deployed our JAR file that contains our applet following the instructions listed at:
http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.3/docs/rsa_signing.html
We used Thwate as our CA. All seemed good.
However any JTextFields that are in our applet cannot access the system clip board. Looking at the source for JTextComponent it should have access to the system clipboard if the securitymanager allows it.
The strange thing is that if I call getToolkit().getSystemClipboard() from our applets I can access the clipboard and copy to the system clipboard. Even the code in JTextComponent that checks for system clipboard access (canAccessSystemClipboard) works fine when pasted into the applet.
Why cant a JTextField copy to the clipboard? Has anyone else come across this?

Juste an idea.... Is your JTextField belonging to the javax.swing.... packages ?
Or did you compile using some com.ms , ibm.... sun... package ? This could lead to some different implementations.

More DataFlavors copied to the clipboard/used in D&D in one step

Hallo,
For my GUI app. I would like to enable different types of information to copied to the clipboard.
e.g. object type 1 - Document ID ( actual row's document ID from JTable ) - to copy document type
object type 2 - string representation ( columns texts from JTable ) - to copy to excel
I would like to keep them general, with different possible combinations
among them ( up to 10 different object types ), according to some specs.
Has anybody idea, if it is possible ? ( prefarably with 1.4 D&D interface ).
Data are packed in createTransferable() call, but it allows just 1 format (?) ...
Maybe I can use some 'envelope' format holding all possible information,
but that idea doesn't looks nice for me :(
Thanks for any hint.
Tibor

Hi !
Thanks for your help. For drag & drop it's fine. System will ask for 'best' format as I expect.
How is it with clipboard ? I had idea to copy table columns as a "text" flavor
( for paste into excel ) and user created flavor "id" with documentId inside.
On paste I would take 'what's better' ( e.g. as a document reference better would be better my "id" flavor,
because that information doesn't need to be in table cells inside ).
Maybe I will have to use 'own' clipboard for these reasons.

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!

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.

CIC - Copy to the clipboard

Hello,
When user, on transaction CIC (l-shape), click on the ISU-Finder to find a BP by giving a premise number it should copy to the clipboard the BP when i click on the checkmark button. This part is build by SAP.
I am trying to copy the Premise to the clipboard by using user-exit EXIT_SAPLEECIC_COMP00_001. I tried many attempts by using SAP function modules in order to create a Business Object Premise and add the element to the clipboard.
I tried FMs such as :
CALL FUNCTION 'CIC_EVENT_RAISE'
     EXPORTING
          event = 'ADD_XTAINER_TO_BDD'
          p1     = xtain
     EXCEPTIONS
          OTHERS = 99.
When i used this one, i got an item in the clipboard but it said : Uninitiliazed Business Process Unit.
Does somebody have to code a 'Copy to Clipboard' for a businness object.
Thanks

I found byselft the solution. Here the step for those who have to do the same:

       EXPORTING
            objtype = 'PREMISES'
            objkey = l_key
       IMPORTING
            object = l_procobj-handle
            return = l_return.
IF NOT l_return IS INITIAL.
    EXIT.
ENDIF.
Set Object ID
CALL FUNCTION 'SWO_OBJECT_ID_SET'
       EXPORTING
            object    = l_procobj-handle

l_def-element      = '<MAINOBJ>'.
l_def-editorder    = 2000 - 1.

Receive error: There was an error while copying to the Clipboard. An internal error occurred.

I receive the message "There was an error while copying to the Clipboard. An internal error occurred." when I highlight anything and copy to the clipboard. I've searched and found others with the same issue, but they were either on an older OS, Acrobat ver, or their issue was intermittent. My issue always occurrs and I cannot copy anything to the clipboard.
I'm running Win 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 and Acrobat Pro 9.4.4. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Safari copy wipes the clipboard

Anyone else have this in Safari 4 for Windows?
I use Safari at work, often copying and pasting text; in Safari 4 I have noticed an issue that when I have text in the clipboard and use the keyboard shortcut to paste the text into a text box on a web page.
Here's what happens, I first have some text I copied into the clipboard, when I accidentally hit Ctrl-C instead of Ctrl-V the clipboard gets wiped out as Safari copies a null amount of text into the clipboard, thus if I realize my mistake and try to do a Ctrl-V my previously copied text has disappeared from the clipboard and nothing pastes.
Yeah I know I should learn to type better, ha ha, but we all occasionally make mistakes and it's infuriating when this happens. I am sure this was not the behaviour Safari 3 and also this issue does not occur in FireFox and I think most other browsers out there.
I clean installed Safari on a new install of Windows on a virtual machine and was able to recreate the issue.
Any thoughts?
Phil

Append copyright text to copied text in clipboard

Is it possible in RH6 to append a copyright string to the
text that a user has just copied to the clipboard, so that when
they paste it, they get the text they copied, plus the copyright
string? The old WinHelp application that I am converting to HTML
help had this feature - I believe the old project was authored in
RoboHelp, but have no idea on how they included the copyright
string. I haven't found anything in the help that references
functionality like this, nor have I found anything online.

Hi,
Make use of READ_TEXT and SAVE_TEXT FM to get the additional text and add to the existing text.

Is there any limitations in Finder when copying files using clipboard?

One day I was moving my photos from one folder to another and accidently discovered that not all of my files are copied!
What I was doing (I'm using Finder):
- Go into folder
- Cmd+A to select all files
- Cmd+C to copy them into clipboard
- Cmd+V to paste them in new location
Every folder contain about 10k files, but (I did some checks) copy operation copied only 2-3k. Every time different amount.
It was so unexpected!
Does anybody know what does it mean??

There is no clipboard limit that I'm aware of. I have copied folders containing tens of thousands of files with no problem. Seems like a bug in the OS.
Just a question, why are you copying your files when you could just drag&drop them from one folder to the other?

Copy diagram to clipboard for sql server 2012 the row did not appear when paste in paint

hello,
i've been trying to create database diagram on my database on sql server 2012 platform. i can create the diagram, but when copy it to clipboard and try to paste it on paint, only the tables name appear without all the columns name. any idea how can i paste
it to have information for both tables name and columns name as well.i've no issue creating diagram and paste on paint for my sql server 2008.
Thanks in advance.
kneeah

Hi kneeah,
According to your description, SQL 2012 database diagram is not printed correctly and several of column names are missed. There are some suggestions for troubleshooting this issue, you can refer to the following steps.
1. We recommend you can copy database diagram to Word and check if it will print correctly.
2. When printing database diagrams, several of the tables contain large grey squares instead of the column names. We recommend switch Windows XP computer from Classic theme to Windows XP theme, and check if it can print correctly.
There is more similar issue about printing database diagram, you can review the following posts.

Copy image from clipboard

hi
Is there any way to find out about type of image that you are coping from clipboard. Because i receive only this type image/x-java-image. I need to know if image is jpg or png.

read the OP, OK then. "image/x-java-image", not application/x-java-file-list.
the question was "what type of image was
copied to the clipboard". if it was pixel/raw data
then whether or not it was jpg or png is what's
irrelavent. That is what I said in my first post. "image/x-java-image" is what Java return when you copy a Image (print screen, open Paint select, copy etc).
When you copy a File it returns a List of Files.
i felt it was obvious that this was a
file (which is still an image) and not pixel buffer
data.It sounds to me like the OP has copied an image from an image program (or hit print screen). At which point it is a raw pixel buffer.
