Cut and Paste with Mighty Mouse?

I just bought a new mighty mouse and I cannot figure out how to cut and past using the mouse. Do I right click, double click on the highlighted word or left click? Also, how do I drag highlighted phrases?
Thanks!

Good luck.

~~red:'''''Can not copy/cut and paste'''''~~
The two most commonly reported causes of not being able to right-click, Copy and Paste are AVG Safe Search and Yahoo Toolbar. ~~red:'''Disable them and test'''~~ ( Tools > Add-ons > Extensions , locate and click on each of the add-ons, click Disable, when both are disabled, click Restart Firefox in the Extensions window.)
If the right-click context menu allows copy/cut and paste with the two add-ons disabled, then one or both of them is causing the issue. Re-enable the extensions one-at-a-time, restart Firefox and test. When the problem returns, you will know which is the culprit.

HT1015 how do i cut and paste with my magic mouse?

can someone please tell me how to cut and paste words with my new magic mouse?....i am used to a dell mouse, thanks!

That's a hardware question what would be best answered in the forum for the system version you're using, either Mac OS X v10.7 Lion, Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard or Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard.

Cut and paste with mouse setting

Hi,
I am unable to use the cut and paste, copy settings by right-clicking my mouse when in .edu websites. I must use the keyboard instead, such as Ctrl C, V or X. However, this does not occur in IE. Can you please assist?
Thanks! Sashtienne

Cut and paste with key command?

hi, I've looked at the remote desktop help, and it does seem possible to cut and paste using the "Get the remote clipboard contents" button.... but is there a way to do this with a key command? Shouldn't this be possible with just the keyboard?
thanks

No. Just use Pages '09 if you still have it.
Pages 5 is just missing a lot of features.

Cut and paste with Fascinate

Anybody know how to cut and paste text with Fascinate?

I haven't been able to get it to work everytime, but like in text's, just touch and hold at the beginning or end of where you would like to copy. Then, after a moment, a box will open up with options to select text, select all text, and a couple of others. If you only want to select a portion of it, just select, select text, and and then with only one finger at a time, move the highlight field to cover what you want to select. When you're done highliting, press and hold again, and select copy. Then go to where ever you would like to paste it, and press and hold the screen again, and select paste, and it will insert the text that you copied. It doesn't work the best, and like I said too, not in all areas of the phone.

Cut and Paste with MS Project Pro 2013

We have and issue where if we try to Copy and Paste a task in MS Project Pro 2013, the PASTE option is not highlighted and we cannot do this. We can copy and paste field in the project but not a task. The task include enterprise fields and I tried to Cut
and Paste even in off-line mode and it does not work.
Anybody has an idea?
Thanks

Hi Johan,
This normally happens when a sort is applied to the view. Sorting by ID then solves the problem.

Cut and paste with mouse different text selections at the same time

You can do this with several apps - LaunchBar being one:

Suggestion I made to Apple on Cut and Paste

I posted the following suggestion to the feedback web page on cutting and pasting with an iPhone:
You have undoubtably heard many requests for cut and paste. It seems to me based upon my two decades of software experience is that the text-based paradigm found in the emacs editor works works better than a mouse-based one. (As you stated in your developer guidelines a finger does not equal a mouse.) I suggest that double-tapping an editable region enters "edit mode" (and exits it also). Edit mode has four buttons. "Set mark", "cut", "copy", and "paste". "Set mark" sets a mark point at the current cursor location and creates a selection region between the mark point and the current cursor location. Cut, copy, and paste work in their traditional fashion of working with the OS X cut buffer.

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.

Cut and paste on left click mouse doesn't work & manage search engine choices non-existtant

I can no longer cut and paste from any website with the mouse. I have also lost the search engine choices (and the engine itself)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== new version of firefox was updated to 3.6.6

Sounds like at least the Mouse is going out, open Sustem Preferences>Mouse, change the primary button to the right one, does the right button now work like he left one should?
Just thinking, it could jast as likely be the KB, maybe the control key stuck? Does the Mouse work if you disconnect the KB?

Having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this

having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this.
I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.
