Cut and Paste broken in Safari 5.1

Using the keyboard shortcuts Cmd-K and Cmd-Y no longer works correctly in Safari 5.1.
This behaviour (still) works correctly in text edit.
In Safari, the "paste buffer" is apparently never cleared, resulting is ALL of the recent cut operations being pasted, not just the most recent one.

Those have never been built-in keyboard commands as far as I know. If you have them, you're running a third-party system modification.

  • Mac Word 2008 Cut-And-Paste broken with DW CS3

    The title pretty much says it all - something is failing in
    the process of cutting text from a MS Word 2008 (Mac) document into
    Dreamweaver CS3. Nothing gets transferred.
    I can cut text from Word and paste into other text editors
    (BBEdit, TextMate, TextEdit) without any problem... and can then
    cut and paste that into DW... but, of course, all formatting
    information is stripped - which isn't always a bad thing: this is
    Word, after all...
    Cut-and-paste from Word 2004 worked OK. It's a strange thing
    to have break... and it's odd to me that Word got out of beta with
    this, given the fact that Dreamweaver is as popular as it
    is.

    Well, I can't give any dates, but it's not any time in the
    next few
    months.
    If I figure out an easy workaround, I'll let you know
    directly.

    The following information was submitted on the Software
    Feature
    Request and Bug Report Form for Dreamweaver
    Since upgrading to Office 2008, I can
    no longer copy and paste text from Microsoft Word to
    Dreamweaver.
    When I click Edit -> Paste, or Cmd-V, nothing happens. If
    I do a
    Paste Special routine and choose unformatted text, then it
    *usually*
    works.
    Dreamweaver did not have this issue with Word 2004.

  • 'Cut and paste' function in Safari

    On my iPad, when I scroll down a long web page in Safari, sometimes the text turns grey and the word 'copy' appears. I have to tap the screen a couple of times to get rid of the grey. This is very irritating. Is there any way to disable this function?

    Do you mean stay on the very edge of the display area? If I take care to swipe on the very edge, it does seem to work. It is just going to to difficult to train myself to do it like that. Thanks for the tip.

  • Safari Can't Cut and Paste Pics

    Hi All
    I can not cut and paste pics to Delphi forums. Others have the same problem, Some have tried Firefox but no luck.
    Seems that you can only do it with Internet Explorer. Icckk
    Anybody know how to fix this problem?
    Thanks in advance

    HI,
    One possibility. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    At the bottom of that pane select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now from the Safari Menu Bar click Develop / User Agent / Internet Explorer. Try 8, 7, or 6.
    No guantee but it's worth a try.
    The next time you relaunch Safari it will default to Safari 5.

  • Cut and paste from Safari to Word doc please Help!!!!!

    I am trying to take a map from the internet via either Mapquest or Rand Mcnally maps and put it in a Word document, and I cannot figure out how to do it. I have tried to highlight the map and cut and paste it in the document but this is not working, if anyone out there knows how to perform this function, please let me know as soon as possible.
    Thanks
    Chris Knop

    Hi knopper, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
    This should work. :~)
    1] cmd shift 4 brings up a cross hair.
    2] drag cross hair across the map and release.
    3] see the png file, maybe jpg, on your desktop or where you have system store new things.
    4] open to make sure its what you want.
    5] copy it into word.
    If that works, I like Green or Gold stars. See Apple info on the email alerts.
    Thanks, Joyous Computing, JP

  • Cannot cut and paste text completely in Pages

    I tried cutting and pasting some text from Safari--about 9 pages worth of text--to Pages, but it only pasted 2 pages. Is this a Snow Leopard problem? Or should I consider installing Word now?

    Have you tried any alternatives at all to really determine the problem, whatever it may be?
    Like pasting it into another program such as *TextEdit, Bean or iTextExpress* ?
    iTextExpress for a start gives you a pageless mode where there are no page margins to cut off extra wide content.
    Have you checked if the text has not popped somewhere, but actually is in Pages?
    Have you noticed at what point the text has broken off and if there is any special about that?
    Have you tried pasting it into a demo of Word to see if it actually is a solution?
    The Mac universe does extend beyond Pages and Word:

  • Why can't i cut and paste

    Downloaded the new Mountain Lion and now I can't cut and paste. Tried the keyboard shortcuts and the drop down menu with no luck. Also can't accomplish this from right clicking. Any ideas?

    Hi elg07,
    Welcome to the Safari Discussions Forum. It's interesting you should mention that.
    I did a quick 'drop-down' of the Edit menu, and those facilities are greyed out, but as soon as I highlighted the subject matter of your post, lo and behold, the cut & paste facilities appeared in black, so it is possible to copy & paste, provided you run the cursor over the item or passage you wish to copy (mine highlights in yellow), you should be able to copy and paste.
    Hope this helps.

  • I use classical Hebrew for my work, and Pages will only display English characters even with a Hebrew font selected. If I cut and paste Hebrew characters from another document, as long as the font is supported, it will appear in Pages.  If I type it won't

    I use classical Hebrew for my work, and Pages will only display English characters even with a Hebrew font selected. If I cut and paste Hebrew characters from another document, as long as the font is supported, it will appear in Pages.  If I type it won't continue in Hebrew.  I have tried downloading several fonts, including those from professional societies, but the only way to get Hebrew in my document is to cut and paste.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  I use an older MacBook running OS 10.9.1.  I used to do my Hebrew work in Word, but it is no longer supported by Mac OS.

    Just clarifying:
    Pages '09 has bad support for Hebrew, Arabic etc but will accept pasted text.
    Pages 5 has much better support but with bugs.
    If you have columns they are in the wrong order ie Text starts in the left column and ends in the right column.
    If you type English into Hebrew text it tends to fall in the wrong position eg instead of to the left of Hebrew punctuation it goes to the right.
    As Tom recommends the only real solution on the Mac is Mellel.
    Peter
    btw Tell Apple, they are amazingly slow to fix this running sore which has been broken since RtoL was supposedly introduced in OSX 10.2.3 over a decade ago.

  • Cut and Paste Cross References

    As some of you know, I'm updating a book composed of chapter files, with cross references between chapters. This used to be incredibly buggy, with crashes and broken references common. Some of that is improved in CS5.5, but a couple of big issues remain, and I'm wondering if anybody has any suggestions.
    Two problems:
    You generally can't cut and paste a cross reference. I have text that says "see page 27". I want to move this somewhere else in the same document. Cut it. Paste it. The paste comes in looking like this: "see <?>" -- and you get a broken link in the Hyperlinks panel. That really limits text editing. It doesn't always happen. Sometimes you'll paste and your cross reference works. But that's rare. And you can never copy and paste. That always breaks.
    Cross references refer to absolute file pathnames. I'd like to rename some chapter files. But I dare not because I assume that all cross references to destinations in those files will break.
    Anybody have any suggestions for either of these things? Number 1 is a real work-stopper right now.
    Many thanks,
    Steve

    Okay, guys -- I've made some progress. And I really appreciate your support, now, and in the past.
    Upgrading from 7.5.2 to 7.5.3 -- no improvement,
    Save a new copy of the file via Save As -- no improvement,
    Export as IDML and then just double-click the IDML to open it -- worked! (Is that the correct procedure? Anything else I need to do?)
    It's still just about suicidal to try and edit text in any story containing multiple cross references to chapter files that aren't open. And adding a new cross reference is super-slow, during which time you're sure you're going to crash. But with the imported file, the new cross ref held.
    One other point of confusion: new cross references display differently than ones created in older versions of the software. The old ones have dark grey boxes around them. New ones have light blue boxes. No mention of this in the help file that I could find. Even if you update an old cross ref, the dark grey remains. Only starting from scratch produces light blue.
    Something corrupted that file, which IDML got rid of. It was corrupted by doing little more than adding or updating a bunch of cross references, and doing some minor text editing. No images in the file, so that had nothing to do with it.
    Chapter file sizes, since you asked, are anywhere from 3 to 40 mb. The file I was having problems with is only 2.5 mb. The book contains 22 chapters. Long ago I converted it from one big file to separate chapters. Easier to manage, chapter numbering works more logically and chapter starts are easier to handle. But cross references worked a lot better with the single file.
    In any event, problem solved for the moment, so thanks very much again. But Adobe really needs to look at this. It's been broken for way too long.

    "it's adding  amp after the & sign"
    It's not actually adding "amp".
    DW is assisting you by encoding the "&" (which validators assume to be a broken HTML entity since they start with "&") and replacing it with the correct form of "&amp;" so that browsers can understand the URL.

  • Cut and Paste fail (6.0.1)

    When I try to cut and paste a graphic from Safari to Keynote, Keynote places a new text box. Do the same with Pages and the grapic appears. Why won't the graphic appear in Keynote? What's the deal?

    Drag and drop will work, but it appears that sone Keynote code has not been aligned to numbers and Pages yet (since it works there). Keynote has a problem with which bit of data to pull from the clipboard when pasting.

    Hello.  In 2012 you answered a query about the following problem:
    "I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet."
    This problem started with me this morning and it does not happen when I open a test account.  The thread stops after you asked if it occurs in the test account, did you ever find a solution to this issue?  I am using mac mail 3.6 on system 10.5.8.
    I hope you receive this, I have never posted in one of these forums.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Can't cut and paste in a web based e-mail service. (Not G-mail)

    I belong to a membership site that is coaching me on e-mail marketing. I want to cut and paste different bits of information and ad links etc. to emails that I am sending out through the site.
    For some reason, Firefox will not allow me to cut and paste when I am in this particular site??
    I can cut and paste in Microsoft Word and other programs with no problem. But when I'm on this particular site it's no deal.
    This is very frustrating. What can I do to resolve the problem.

    I've had this happen a couple of times. Seems it just gets a bit borked sometimes.
    Best thing to do is close Pages (or whatever), then do an iOS reset (hold power button then home button till screen goes blank and apple logo comes up and then let go).
    Cut copy paste should work again as normal.
