Cut and Paste Between adjacent "Spaces" How to ??

Is it possible to either configure or command "Spaces" to display SIMULTANEOUSLY on my screen documents contained in, say, "Space 1" and "Space 2" ?
If I had a Word document open in one space and a web page in another space, could I select and copy text to the clipboard from the page in Space 2 into a Word document in the adjacent space ? In other words, does Spaces support clipboard cut and paste operations between neighbouring spaces in real, drag and drop time ?
Can I split my screen in other words

Hi Michael Bryan;
Yes, it does.
I do it all the time. I have one Space with my writing programs and another with my browsers. I am always cut in one Space and pasting in another. I found the quickest way back and forth is to use command + tab to switch between the open applications. It opens up the Space the includes the application to paste into.

My Word documents repeatedly crash when I cut and paste between documents or websites. Can you help?

My Micrososft Word 2011 repeatedly freeze when I cut and paste between documents or with a website. Any advice?

This is from the Microsoft Answers website,
Try a Maggie:
The Maggie:
1. Create a new blank document in .docx format
2. Carefully select all of the text in the bad document EXCEPT the last
paragraph mark
3. Copy it.
4. Paste in the new document.
5. Save under a new file name and close all, then re-open.
This technique for de-corrupting is known as "Doing a 'Maggie'", after

Vim: cutting and pasting between Terminal windows.

Has anyone else noticed in vim, that when cutting and pasting between 2 files opened in 2 separate vim sessions, each in it's own terminal.app window. that you get a lot of indentions stuffed in with the paste content? If I open both files within a single vim session by splitting the window. This is not a problem.
on other systems that I use, setting 'noai' resolves this problem. but it doesn't appear to have any effect on OS X. any suggetions?
Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy,
Talking to yourself? Don't let this drive you insane. The difference is probably in your ~/.vimrc. In order to avoid the extra indention characters you must unset autoindent and also cindent. You may not set the cindent on the other platforms. I have it set because it's useful in composing code from scratch. However, if I want to paste indented text I have use both ":set noai" and ":set nocindent". After that pasting doesn't add any extra indention.

Cut and Paste between Events not working

Using iPhoto11, I can drag and drop pictures between events, no problem...but Cut and Paste does not work.
I select a photo and cut in event A, go to event B, I right click and get a PAST button, It even clicks but nothing happen, the Cut image never gets pasted.
Is this a bug? whats the solution?

To delete the test user, go to the black apple menu, click on system preferences, then on accounts. From an administrator account, click on the "test" user and hit the "-" key. when the dialog box comes up, hit "delete the home folder" and it will be gone.
For the startup disk issue you should repair permissions. From the finder, click on the "go" menu, then on "utilities". Select disc utility. Select your HD and click on repair disk permissions. This will take several minutes (5 or more).
If that has not done the trick then you may need to reset the parameter ram (PRAM). Turn your computer off. When you turn it back on, simultaneously hold 4 keysL command-option-p-r. Keep holding them. The startup chime will ring. Continue to hold until you have heard the chime at least 2 times (more won't help or hurt). Then release.

Cut and Paste between mac applications and openoffice

Using OpenOffice I can cut and paste within OpenOffice using Ctrl-c and Ctrl-v.
I can copy from Apple Mail using Apple-c, but I cannot paste that text into OpenOffice using Ctrl-v.
Is there any way of doing this?

Try using Neo Office Aqua instead. It does work as expected and it does not require X11. Be sure to download not only the application but the most recent patch as well. There are both PPC and Intel versions. Be sure to get the Intel version (http://www.neooffice.org/).

With emails when I send a link it cannot be opened but has to be cut and pasted by the recipient - how can I avoid this

When I send a link to a page or website via email (Hotmail or Yahoo) it cannot be opened by the recipient. Instead it needs to be cut and pasted into their browser bar for them to open it.
This problem only started after loading Firefox on my computer and I wonder if you can help in any way.

Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.<br />

Cut and paste between photos

I am new to Photoshop but I thought there was a way to cut a person from one photo and paste it into another. Can't seem to find how to do it in any menus or help searches. Is this possible and how?

Basically you use the various selection tools to select the person, copy the selection to the clipboard, open the destination picture, and paste from the clipboard. The person is placed on a new layer with transparent background. You can then resize/reposition the person as needed.
Here is my tutorial demonstrating this and some advanced techniques.

Project Server / Project Pro = Cut and Paste official best practices to avoid corruption

It is pretty common knowledge among Project Server veterans that Cut and Paste between Project Pro files can cause corruption with the assignment table. This leads to Publish and Reporting (Project Publish)
failures. I just went through an upgrade from Project Server 2007 to 2013 and a LOT of files had to be rebuilt from scratch.
I ask my users to not Cut and Paste within or between project files. They do not always listen.
I have looked and cannot find official Microsoft text on the subject or at least some sort of official best practices doc. It would help me prevent some corruption if I had a doc with a Microsoft logo that says “It is not recommended….”
Or “If you do this you will make your admin cry…”
If this doc is right in front of me and I just missed it I apologize in advance.
Thanks

John --
To the best of my knowledge, there is no such Best Practice document from Microsoft. Based on my experience with Project Server from Project Central through Project Server 2013, following are some items that can cause corruption in your project:
Use of special characters in the name of the project.
Cutting/copying/pasting entire task rows within a single enterprise project or between multiple enterprise projects.
Opening an enterprise project on your laptop while connected to a wireless network, then closing the laptop lid, walking to another room in the building when you pass from one wireless access point to another, and then opening the laptop lid again.
I learned this from one of our former clients.
Beyond this, there are some other items that will not corrupt your project, but which will cause problems with saving or publishing a project. These items include:
Using blank rows in the project.
Using special characters in task names.
Task names that start with a space character (this sometimes happens when copying and pasting from an Excel workbook).
In both Project Server 2010 and 2013, the recommended method for resolving a corrupted project is to use the Save for Sharing feature. Refer to my directions in the following thread on how to use the Save for Sharing feature:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/projectserver/en-US/ec2c5135-f997-40e1-8fe1-80466f86d373/task-default-changing?forum=projectprofessional2010general
Beyond what guidance I have provided, I am hoping other members of this community will add their thoughts as well. Hope this helps.

Cut and paste not working in iphoto

I can't cut and paste between events in iPhoto any longer. i tried flagging a photo but the add flag item to event was grayed out. how can you move photos between events. i tried dragging but page didn't scroll very well so was a little inefficient

I see, in the "Photos" album I cannot cut and paste either. I can cut the photo from the event, but not paste it into a different event, because It is impossible to select the event for pasting in the Photos album.
@ Terence Devlin, is pasting into an event supposed to work inside the Photos album?
I can paste into an event in the Events view. And dragging and dropping between events is working well in the Photos view.
i tried flagging a photo but the add flag item to event was grayed out.
This cannot work in Photos view, because "Add flagged items to the selected event" requires an event to be selected, an in the Photos album is no selected event. You can create a new event from the flagged photos and drag this event on top of the event where you want them to go.
So, I am afraid you will have to switch between the Photos album and the Events view to move your photos around.

Cut and paste problems

Cut and paste between program has been real buggy since upgrading. Today, I am trying to cut lines of text out of InDesign and paste into either a web browser or Mail, and nothing happening. Text cuts OK, cause I can paste it back into ID, but won't let me paste elsewhere. Had the same problem earlier pasting between Excel and ID. Anybody else experiencing this?

It's an extremely important skill to learn to read the API and become familiar with the tools you will use to program Java. Java has an extensive set of documentation that you can even download for your convenience. These "javadocs" are indexed and categorized so you can quickly look up any class or method. Take the time to consult this resource whenever you have a question - you'll find they typically contain very detailed descriptions and possibly some code examples.

How do I cut and paste

I have just bought an apple having previously owned windows based computers. And was wondering if anyone can advice how you cut and paste things within social networking sites. It would appear I can not do it the same way as windows. Not sure why. I have not tried doing anything in word or excel yet.

This may be good information for cut, copy, and paste functions within a program that uses text or pictures within documents but not good advice for simple file management....
It is important to me that I maintain files without using up space by having duplicate files in multiple locations, ie. same file name with same contents under another parent file with differing name. I want to move multiple files from one parent file to another parent file that may contain the same file name. Upon doing so, I should get a pop up window that states I am trying to move a file with the same name to this new location that already contains a file with the same name and what do I want to do with it? Stop, Merge, Overwrite, etc. I would say stop because I want to verify if they are indeed the same contents and to continue with the moving of files for those that do not have a conflict. When all is said and done, I should only have those files left in the original parent file that had a conflict and all the others should have successfully moved to the new location parent file.
This is not the case with Mac. When I try this procedure, FIRST there is no CUT command using the command and mouse (right click) menu. SECOND if I selct all files in the parent file (command 'a') and drag to the new file location, I get all the previously mentioned options about files with the same names but when its done, I find that the files were only copied and not cut from their original location file. This makes it impossible to know which files are indeed duplicates since everything was left behind in the original parent file location.
What is the Darn answer??!! Don't tell me Apple was so stupid not to create a function that does this as all Windows based computers do.

How do I turn off "Smart Cut and paste" in InDesign?

Hi,
A programmer told me, that ID has a function called "smart cut and paste":
smart cut and paste boolean -- If true, automatically adjusts spacing among words and between words and punctuation marks when cutting and pasting text.
http://www.mugginsoft.com/html/kosmictask/ASDictionaryDocs/Adobe/InDesign/OS-X-10.7/InDesi gn-CS5/html/html/FULL/classes/text_editing_preference.html
Unfortunately, it shows some weird text exchange behaviour when copying and pasting text.
My web and my forum search showed no results.
So: How can it be turned off?
Thanks for your help!
Mathais

Thank you very much!
In the German version of InDesign's GUI it is called "Beim Ausschneiden und Einfügen von Wörtern Abstand automatisch anpassen".

How do you cut and paste tables in and out of Excel from either Mail.app or Outlook 2011?

When I try to cut and paste a table generated in Excel for Mac into the body of an email the formatting holds but when I send the table is reduced to one column. Same is true for copying from incoming mail into Excel, when I paste into Excel it is reduced to one column rather than keeping the table format. I have tried using mail.app and went out and Outlook 2011 and both programs have the same issue. The reformatting also happens when I forward an email received from a coworker that contains a table, not just on cut and paste operations.
I need to do this regularly and right now my only option is using my old PC where the cut and paste function keeps formatting between Excel and Outlook just fine. Attaching a pdf or excel file is not an option. There has to be a way to maintain the formatting and being able to extract the tables keeping them intact. Please let me know if you have a solution to maintain this formatting within email programs. Thank you in advance.

Selecting all does not help - the issue is I need a table within an incoming email to be moved to excel, edited and then pasted back into a new email. "Select All" picks up the email headers, signatures, any messages around the table etc so that doesn't work. Also, as pointed out above Excel doesn't have a select all feature to get the tables back into the body of an email.
I just tried again going from Excel into Outlook 2011. No luck. All one column down the left side of the email. All columns are removed and text crammed into one column. Just to check I cut from one Excel document and pasted into another and it retained all formating just fine. It is only in and out of Outlook that seems to be the issue.
