Cut&past help

Using studio 8. Dreamweaver had stopped allowing me to use
right-click copy (including cntr C) and right-click paste (inc cntr
v). It has been shaded out and doesn't act at all. It used to work.
Can anyone help?

Trying to create a shell script to cut/paste files in finder. Help needed.

I'm trying to create an automator shell script to cut/paste. It'll function exactly like copy/paste. i.e. I'll just copy file/files with command+c like always, but then I'll create an automator which uses the "mv" terminal app to move the files which works exactly like cut paste.
I need some help since I don't know the syntax for creating shell scripts.
What I did so far is to do it in automator with Apple Script which goes like the following:
on run {input, parameters}
tell application "Finder"
set theWindow to window 1
set thePath to quoted form of (POSIX path of (target of theWindow as string))
end tell
tell application "Terminal"
do script with command "mv \"" & input & "\"" & thePath in window 1
end tell
return input
end run
This gets the copied file path from clipboard before, as input, and then recognizes the active finder window as thePath so then executes the mv command for the input file to the thePath window.
It doesn't work as expected since it connects both file/window paths into a single path instead of leaving a space between them so the mv command can't recognize two separate paths.
What's the correct syntax for that line
do script with command "mv \"" & input & "\"" & thePath in window 1
to leave a space between input and thePath under the mv command?
Also this requires the terminal app to be open in the background.
After I get this to work I want to do the exact same thing using shell script within automator, so I won't need Terminal to be open all the time.
And the next step will be to cut/paste multiple files/folders but that should be easy to do once I get the hang of it.

Try using:
on run {input, parameters}
tell application "Finder"
set theWindow to window 1
set thePath to quoted form of (POSIX path of (target of theWindow as string))
end tell
do shell script "mv \"" & input & "\" " & thePath
return input
end run

How can I Cut & paste an address from one address book to another on my PC.

My work computer has 3 address books - 1 personal address book, 2 collected address book, 3 work related address book.
After a couple of years I would like to tidy up my address books & cut & paste some of them from here to there. However there seems to be no cut & paste or copy & paste feature that I can locate anywhere????
I can't drag & drop an address from one to another either.
Can anyone please help
BevN

Cut and paste a whole contacts information has never available because it entails different components. Cut/Copy and paste has always been available if you are only selecting one part of the information, but this means you have to open a specific contacts Properties.
'''How to drag and drop contacts between address books:'''
In the left Directory Pane, select the address book containing the contact you want to move. You should see a list of contacts in the right Contact Pane.
Drag & Drop process:
* Left click and hold down on a contact in the list to grab, then drag that contact to the left and hover over the address book where you want to put the contact. Then release the mouse button to drop into that address book.
You can move more than one contact.
* Hold down 'Ctrl' key and use mouse to select and highlight various contacts.
* then use the D&D process - (left click, hold down on any highlighted contact to grab all highlighted contacts).

Clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express, but does not create a new mail, which it used to. annoying as it then means cutting & pasting the details

As I said above, clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express which is my default email client. In the past it used to also open a new mail, ready for me to type the message but now it does not. It works if I load internet explorer as the browser but does not in firefox. I prefer firefox, so can someone help me resolve this. Its so annoying to have to open a new mail then cut & paste the email details.

I posted this reply elsewhere in the support forum but I'll copy it here for you, as follows....
I had the same problem. Initially thought I needed a string (code) to run the "Create new e-mail" command for Outlook but I didn't. I did a few things that eventually made it work, but I don't know for certain which one it was so here goes.
1.) Go to Control Panel and click on Internet Properties. Go to the Programs tab and double-check that Outlook Express is your default e-mail client. (This is probably for IE).
2. Close Outlook Express. Select the RUN command from the Start Menu and type the following: <msimn /reg>. Only type the info between the brackets. Click the OK button and wait about 5 seconds. Nothing will happen on screen but the information is being silently written to the registry.
3. Open Outlook Express and go to the Tools Menu. Select Options. On the General tab, look down to the Default Messaging Programs. More than likely, the top option will say that "This application is NOT the default Mail handler" Click the button next to it that says "Make Default". This should trigger an available option in Firefox, below, if it was not already available.
4. In Firefox, go to the Tools menu. Select Options. Click on Applications. Under the column, "Content Type" look for the mailto function. In the column Action, select "Use Outlook Express (default)" if it is not already selected. "(default)" must be part of the phrase. Somehow there is code behind this option that will bring up a new e-mail in Outlook that otherwise does not work if Outlook is selected manually. (To choose Outlook manually, you will indeed have to find the string code somewhere.)

Cut/Paste not working in Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac

Sirs,
I am using Microsoft Remote Desktop V8.05 build 24428 on a Mac under the latest Mavericks OS, and I find that Cut and Paste are not working. When I paste on Remote Desktop Windows always pastes the last thing cut/copied under the Windows remote session,
rather than whatever I just cut/copied in another Mac window.
I am well aware that the keystrokes are different, and I tried to follow the instructions on another question which indicated that I should select the console session checkbox on Remote Desktop's 'Connection' configuration window. However Remote
Desktop no longer seems to have that option ... the topmost line now shows 'Admin Console' and checking it did not help with cut/paste.
I hope you can tell me how to get this working as cut/paste is a great convenience.
Thanks

Hi,
Clipboard redirection is not supported in current versions of Microsoft Remote Desktop. However, I will help to submit this as customer wish to the product team.
Thanks for your understanding.

[SOLVED]Cannot copy/cut/paste files in Konqueror

Hi all, I am using KDE4.1.2 (official version). My konqueror cannot copy/cut/paste files in 'file manager' mode, the copy/cut/paste items in the right click menu are always faded out, and C-x/C-c/C-v hotkeys do not work either. However, it can read/write/rename/delete files normally. In fact, 'Move to' and 'Copy to' menu works too. Meanwhile, dolphin does not have this problem. I am a little confused.:mad:

Hello,
I'm using kdemod, konqueror 4.1.4 in i686, and the paste is always greyed out (same happens with the button in the taskbar). The "copy" action seems to be enabled through ctrl-c and the right-click, but there is no way to say, because no paste can be done. Deleting files works, so it does not seem to be related to permissions.
Regarding the post
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57749
I installed konq-plugins, but it did not help. The paste is also greyed out in dolphin.
I wonder if anyone is having this same issue? I thought this was solved in 4.1.3
Thanks!

Edit menu - allowing copy/cut/paste

I am working on creating an edit menu and I would like to be able to disable the copy/cut/paste items in the menu when their use is not possible (like when there is no text based field to copy from).
I am guessing that one approach I can take is as follows:
1) Determine what component currently has focus, and whether it is a text field. If it is not a text field, then all three of the menu items should be disabled.
2) If it is a text field and there is a selection, enable the copy and cut menu items.
3) If it is a text field and there is an insertion point, then enable paste.
However, I have no idea how to accomplish any of those three step. Or even if that is the right approach. Also, I would like to implement the listener within my edit menu class itself (a subclass of JMenu), since I use it to insert edit menues into a number of different JFrames. I would appreciate any help or direction. Thanks.

Can't copy, cut & paste.

I just bought an HP TouchSmart520 PC & am trying to figure out how to copy, cut & paste. Clicking on the R mouse doesn't even have it as an option. Please help!

Hi,
Have you tried to use the keyboard ?
Hold down the Ctrl key then (a) Pres C for Copy and (b) Press V for Paste
If you wish to you Right click mouse (normally) you have to hightlight the area you want to copy first.
Regards.

PodCast Video Play causing XP CRASH during Cut/Paste in WINWORD

I am experiencing serious compatibility issues while viewing a training PodCast with a separate WINWORD window running (taking notes).
When I attempt to cut/paste a screen-shot of the presentation (while in pause mode), or almost any "picture" in the WINWORD or OneNotes window, I get a complete "lock-up CRASH." This happen AFTER I have resumed the video Pod-Cast and doe not typically happen DURING the "pause".
To recover, I am forced to "Force POWER Down" by holding down my POWER-ON button.
This is ugly.
My only "work-around" has been to completely "pause" the video from streaming while I am doing ANY "pasting" or MOVING around images in the separate WINWORD screen. ANY moving around of images WHILE simultaneously viewing the video PodCast using iTunes almost immediately causes a complete LOCK-UP.

what software did you use to burn your rss feed? if you used feed burner they will automaticly redirect the suscribers to the new feed. i hope this helped you

How to update PL/SQL block/Specs in Repository without cut/paste ?

(cross-posted in METALINK form also)
Hello,
Question: How to quickly update PL/SQL block/specs in a package
Repository Object Browser? (without cut/paste)
Tools: Designer 9i, ROB 9.0.2.6
Detailed description of a problem:
-- there is no good pl/sql IDE working with ROB
(JDeveloper can not work with NOT PRIVATE repository workspace)
-- I use Toad and develop/generate pl/sql object
directly in database.
-- I have to synchronize my work with repository as often
as possible the following way (we do not use read-server model
because afraid of getting 1000s of atomik func and proc):
---- navigate to the pl/sql package
---- select properties
---- click on pl/sql block - get old code in editor
---- copy all new code from Toad into editor
---- remove CREATE OR REPLACE and last line
---- save
---- do the same with specifications
I am looking for some way to do this with some script or
one-button click...
For example, for text files it is possible to use command line
Repository Tool. But I did not found the possibility to make
a script like this:
checkout
update workarea/container/plsql_definition/package_name/body....
.....with new_package_body.txt
checkin
Thanks in advance for any help/advice,
Alex V.

Hi Alex,
I just had an "Ah! I see!" moment. I now understand why you're having trouble and I can explain things so you can move on... I hope!
First it's important to understand that Oracle SCM is designed to support versioning of both files and Oracle Designer objects. Designer objects are stored as rows in specially structured tables that support that specific product. When you look at PL/SQL definitions in the RON you're looking at Designer definitions - not files. As I mentioned before, these are not the definitions of 'real' PL/SQL objects in the data dictionary, but definitions used by Designer (from which the real things can be generated - but that's another story).
If you're using TOAD you should probably avoid accessing the Designer objects. You need to work with files.
Here's a suggestion for a sequence of operations:
- In the RON check out & download the file (e.g. mypkg.plb)
- In TOAD load the package (from DB, or downloaded file), edit, update package in DB
- In TOAD save as mypkg.plb (overwriting the downloaded copy)
- IN RON upload mypkg.plb and check in
If you've not stored the file in Oracle SCM yet, jsut omit the first step.
You could even automate this to an extent using SQL to query the data dictionary views (e.g. USER_SOURCE) after making changes to get the code and edit/overwrite the file contents that way.
Does this help at all?
Keith.

Can't Cut & Paste In JavaScript Editor Window

Can anyone help? Can't cut & paste inside JavaScript Editor Window.
I'm using Windows XP Home Edition & Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro

I've had this happen sometimes while having a JavaScript console window open. IT happens after I've had the console open and switched to another application. Then when I switch back to Acrobat, the console is unresponsive. The solution I found was to close the console and open it up again from the menu. Then it's back to working as expected.

Cut & Paste - different position relative to ruler - why ?

CS5 is not honouring the relative position when cutting from one document then pasting to another. In CS4 I would drag the ruler to a common element of both documents, then cut from one and paste in front in the other document. This is no longer the case with CS5, it appears to be Art Board bound some how, and I dont want that becuase I can never be 100% assured the custom art boards are of the same size .... what happened Adobe , life used to be simple ? Is there a software switch somewhere to have cut & paste adhere to relative ruler position ?

Yeah I posted about this issue yesterday, glad to see others have been complaining about it. It's a huge issue, a dealbreaker as far as using CS5 or not. From the posts about labels and shrink wrap kinda sounds like there's some other folks in the thread doing flexographic work. I don't know if there's something about flexography that makes us desperately need to retain this feature, but so it is (I suppose since flexography uses so many different slightly different document sizes on a regular basis, compared to commercial which may only use 4 or 5 radically different document sizes on a regular basis, it might affect us more).
I put a call into Adobe about it yesterday. First level phone support said that on their end paste was working the way I wanted it. (He screen shared with my computer, I showed him the issue and he was mystified by it saying his CS5 was merrily pasting according to the ruler origin.) This makes it seem like, in contrary to Mr. Zimmerman, that this can be changed in a setting somehow. Note that support also called over their supervisor and they were both surprised to see me unable to paste in place (front/back) relative to the ruler, only relative to the document. He escalated the issue to second level support and said I should get a call back sometime late this week, we shall see. Obviously I can only trust 1st level support so much. I didn't screen share to him (only him to me) so for all I know (despite his assurances) he was accidentally working in CS4 or CS3.
The weird thing to me about the whole issue is the change doesn't actually give anyone anything they didn't have before. Mr. Zimmerman seems to be saying that everyone and their brother was asking to be able to always paste according to the corner of the document, but in old versions that functionality was already present. If you wanted to paste according to the corner of the document you just double clicked in the top left corner (between your x and y rulers) to reset the rulers to the corner. Okay maybe people didn't want to reset their rulers after they paste, but it's a whole lot easier to reset a ruler than it is to be forced to paste things around a document without a ruler's help. I also understand that by adding in artboards (not a useful feature for me, but definitely a useful feature for most designers....old Freehand users will undoubtedly be leaping for joy) paste according to rulers becomes more problematic and they probably wanted to streamline things by default...but I still have a hard time imagining that Adobe would so screw over their customer base by totalling removing this functionality that has been so basic to Illustrator for so long by removing it entirely.
I definitely second (sixth, seventh) the requests to add a paste according to ruler option if my 1st level support guy was incorrect in his assessment that the functionality could still be turned on in CS5. I will post hopefully later this week with an update on my experience with 2nd level support.
