Cut and paste bug

Im having an issue with cut and paste commands. I can't paste anything unless I copy first then cut. If I cut then try to paste edit>paste will be shaded out and commandX does nothing. Sometimes its not shaded out but will paste what I have previously copied.
I found this out during a tutorial in which I had to cut and paste an effects paint layer to a new solid.
Im using CS5.5 on Macbook pro i7 8GB OSX 10.7.2.
So far I have tried - resetting preferences on start up. - Edit> purge >all. - Turning off system shortcuts. -Rebooting. None of these have made a difference. Anyone else had or having this issue? Any advise on what I should do next to try and resolve? Cheers.

Followed your steps exactly and it's exactly like I said in my previous post. Cut and paste works for effects. Here's exactly what I did except for the part where I created the worst illustrator art that I've ever seen. Just two layers, lovely colors. The .ai file is imported as a comp with retain layer sizes selected. A black brush is chosen set to write on and silhouette luma. The size is adjusted to cover the line easily, I paint on the line, press the e key to reveal the effect in the timeline. It's there, it's also in the ECW so I select the effect, cut it, go to the composition, use Cmnd+Y to create a new layer and paste Cmnd + V and the paint effect is applied to the solid.
There's something going on with your machine, some third party plug-in, some other app, some other issue that's preventing this from working.
Here's my little movie of the whole experiment.
I'd make sure that your AE version is the latest, that you have your memory and processing set to the defaults, and that you're not running any other apps while testing AE. If there's still a problem, file a bug. Your machine is not behaving as my machine and every other Mac I routinely work on is behaving.

  • Cut and Paste Bug with SUM( )

    If SUM( ) refers to multiple ranges, and one of those ranges is Cut and then Pasted to another location, the SUM( ) function is not changed to reflect the new location of those Cut and Pasted cells.  Instead, SUM( ) continues to refer to the original locations.
    I tried this in Excel and it works well.

  • Cut and paste bug within Symbols - anyone else?

    I've come across a bug in Illustrator CS6. When I cut and paste content from within a symbol into the same or another symbol it pastes all the content from that symbol into it again.
    Anyone else having this issue?
    I can provide screenshots to help explain.

    Same issue here, this is a major problem for me as i use symbols all the time. First time i've had the issue with CS6 - maybe it was always there....
    If i cut some text from selected text inside a symbol and paste that text back into another symbol, all the text contained within the first symbol gets pasted even though it was not seletced!
    ARGHHH!

  • Photoshop cut and paste bug

    HI,
    I often take screenshots from my screen. I do this by hitting the 'PrtScrn' button on my keyboard. Then I go to PHotoshop, make a new image and paste, but it doesn't paste the recently copied screen that is in the clipboard...?! Does anyone have experience with this and know how to fix it?
    Thanks,
    Stan

    Rob (post #1) on a good day, yes, but sometimes, often to be honest, it doesn't put the proper dimensions in OR paste the proper image.
    Ok, yeah, because the clipboard date is still there for other programs, so I think it's a PS bug. I knew about closing and reopening, but what a PITA.
    At least I'm not the only one. Thanks all.

  • Bug With iTunes 6 cut and paste?

    I've just installed iTunes 6, when I try to cut and paste lyrics into the lyrics box, it doubles the paste (it does it twice). I'm not having this problem in any other app, and I've rebooted, and it is still happening. Very very very annoying. Has anyone else had this problem. Is there a work around? I've replicated the problem on my G5 desktop.

    Yes, but that was posted before 6.0.1, and they didn't fix it in 6.0.1...
    He did not say it would be in the next update (6.0.1) which cam out very quickly, but that it would be fixed in a future update. At least you know they are aware of the problem and are working on it.

  • I can use cut and paste in Rich Text Editors for all web site hosts but one. I have tried the solution you provided, but it doesn't work. Any ideas? the website that rejects cut and paste is Network Solutions

    I really hoped you would fix the security policy issue in release 4. I have to close Firefox and use IE9 to maintain a website I built with Network Solutions and I'd much rather not have to endure the slowness of IE. I also have websites with Wix and WEBS and have no problems at all using cut and paste with them.

    Did you have it connected to the library mac when it froze? If so, why? I would be hesitant to hook my ipod to a unprotected public computer since it may be infested with viruses or have unknown hardware problems.
    In any case, if you can get it to an Apple store they can probably help you with it, it sounds like it needs replacing.
    A certain percentage of any complex product will turn out to be defective and will have to be returned, it sounds like you were unlucky enough to get one. Looking over the forums here it may seem like the ipod is plagued with bugs, but don't forget that there are millions who never have a problem and so have no reason to pipe up here. Personally I think Apple deserves a thumbs up for continuing to host these forums in spite of how they may cast a negative light on thier products to the casual observer.

  • 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.

    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 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 from text field not working in early access JRE 1.90-ea-b38

    I noticed that cut and paste no longer works with JRE 1.9 on Windows 7 professional. Anyone else having that problem?
    I haven't posted a bug reports since the Sun days, is there still a place to post bugs?

    Which advice didn't I follow?1) How to write a simple SSCCE.
    Again why do you have a custom TableModel? It is not required for the SSCCE and in fact is not required for your real program.
    Why is KeyListener code included. It has notthing to do with your question.
    2) I also suggested you add the mouse listener to the text area. Well, the text area is defined in the popup dialog, not the editor in my original SSCCE. So why have you made the code so complex by defining a second text area?
    I did look at your sample program (the table with pop-up menu appearing on right-click) That was only a wild guess because you didn't respond the second time when I asked you why the mouse listener wasn't added to the text area.

  • What has happened to cut and paste files?

    Hi,
    I was a Windows user for a long time and then I switched to Linux, and finally to Mac OS X. So I'm quite used to cut and paste files in Windows and Linux, I didn't discover this problem in Mac OS X until I tried right clicking on a file in order to move it into another folder, but I found out that there is no cut or move option in the menu, so I tried Edit> Cut in the menu bar of Finder but surprisingly I found out it is grayed out, nor does the command X button have any effect. so I always have to drag the files and navigate into the desired folder in order to move them there, which is really frustrating sometimes. Is it my Mac or every other Mac out there has the same Bug? What is the work around solution?

    Thanks for the tip, its what I have been doing for a while.
    You made a good point about cut files being deleted, however I think that is not the case, at least in other Operating systems that I have used, even If I forget to paste a file into a folder, they will never be deleted, at least it never happened to me, but I'm quite sure about this, so I don't think this would be a problem in Mac either, and if it is, which would be embarrassing, then what's the point of putting a dead Cut option in the Menu bar? am I missing something here? there has to be a work around, is it possible that I should change a security setting or something, somewhere?

  • 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.
    - Vic

    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 failed

    No cut and paste available either by keyboard or control click (can copy on that but no paste available)
    No drag available either.
    Have repaired permissions. No joy.
    This is a major major bug and it seems Im not the only one, surely there is a fix for this? It makes the mac all but useless

    I see a blank space where, presumably, my copied text should be. "clipboard contents.none'
    In Word I am getting 'there is not enough memory or disk space to complete this operation' message when I apple+V (768 MB RAM, 76GB unused space on HD)
    no message at all (or paste) if i use the pull down menu.
    In text edit I get a system bleep when I apple +V
    Drag will not work at all on folders or icons and as I cannot copy and paste I cannot move files
    I can 'send to trash' which I think is where this blasted OS should go! Really, this is a major bug and its going to cost me a days work while I set up an old mac i thought id never have to use again
    This along with the noted bug that stops the ability to rename files (usually fixed via restart) is making me question 10.5.5's viability.
    I hope someone somewhere knows what's going on and how to fix it
    Thx

  • Dreamweaver cut and paste problem! LAST RESORT!

    Hello there people
    I am in desperate need of some help, I have exhausted all
    other options and I REALLY hope some one on here will be able to
    help me!...
    I was halfway through an index.html doc when my cut and paste
    option stopped working! if you go to edit, all the options are
    greyed out! and keyboard shortcuts wont work either! I have tried
    opening my other docs and they are all the same!,
    Thinking it was a bug I downloaded some updates, I then tried
    re-installing, and then removing the WHOLE thing then
    re-installing! Ive also looked at windows and there does not seem
    to be a problem there either!
    Cut and paste works EVERY where else except in DW!
    It is looking like maybe I have "selected" some thing, but I
    have checked every thing I know and still NOTHING!!
    can any one shed any light on this?

    IVE GOT THE ANSWER!
    In Windows, browse to this file:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration\panelset.xml
    Rename the panelset.xml file to panelsetOLD.xml, so that
    Dreamweaver will automatically create a new panelset.xml
    file.

  • Small font when I cut and paste

    Got a new MBP about 3 months ago. Whenever I cut and past from a form into an email, the font is always 12 pt and I like 20 pt, which is my default size for email typing. How can I make it so anything I cut/past is 20 pt? Any ideas?

    This problem is bugging me too. I would like it when I cut and paste into an email it would format it correctly rather then copying the color and font size.

  • Cut and paste of commented block loses indentation

    In the code editor, cutting and pasting a block of code that has been commented out (with /* */) loses any indentation it may have.
    For example, copying:
         internal function test():void{
           return;
    and pasting it to a new location, becomes:
    internal function test():void{
    return;
    Blocks with multiple levels of indent also lose all indentation.
    A simple workaround, of course, is to copy the contents of the comment (without the /* and */) and to then turn that into a comment but, for the final version of the product, it would be nice if it could work properly.
