Does Xoom do App to App Cut and Paste?
I would like to be able to highlight a phrase or paragraph, cut or copy t to a clipboard and then paste it into another application such as email or Notes.
MY DX will not do that. Can XXoom do it?
To initiate simply long pressed near the words that you want to copy. (Actually I was wrong, I can copy from this site... more below). The long press action often won't get the exact words you want, but you'll end up with some highlighted words and some controls that allow you to modify the selection.
With a selection made there are buttons at the top of the screen that allow you to specify that you want to do a copy.
To paste,all you need to do is long press in an input field. Again,you'll get a Congolese that allows you to specify the cursor position, then an on screen control near the cursor that says paste.
I'll copy / paste your message below. No, I don't have a way to prove that I didn't just retype it, but I'm very lazy Looks like it drops the hard returns and just gets the text.
Are you doing cut and paste from a Xoom or from droid 2? How do you go about Highlignting more than one word? HOw do you initiate Copy or Cut? How do you initiate Paste in the other App?

Why does Project 2010 Pro crash on cut and paste operation, among many other problems?
I guess my question has more to do with this: I'm trying to find a hotfix, patch or update for this. Can you advise?
Thanks,
AldoHi, Mike,
Thank you for your very informative reply. Please accept the comments below in the interest of understanding the problem a little better. I will read your articles and comment on them, if applicable.
What I think you are suggesting is basically for me to provide more information. Perhaps you could advise on how my concern could best be addressed. It's a simple matter of copying and pasting lines until it crashes, which I can't understand why I would
want to avoid, particularly when the actions of the interface clearly support it. So, from a UI design perspective I have to ask, if this is a valid task for an Excel spreadsheet why is it not for a Project spreadsheet?
Please bear in mind that the issue here is not related to the effective use of the product, but quite plainly why doesn't this stuff work out of the box on a simple paste operation?
By "Adding", in my previous comments, I mean go to the "Project" ribbon, and select the "Subproject" button. Following is a very detailed set of steps.
1. Open Microsoft Project 2010 Professional, in either 64 bit or 32 bit mode.
2. About Microsoft Project displays (14.0.4751.1000) MSO (14.0.4760.1000), by going to the quick access tool bar, selecting "Customize quick access tool bar", selecting "More commands", selecting from the pull-down "Choose commands
from" the option "All commands", and then the "About" option in the list view right below it. Press the "Add" button in the middle of the form. Press the OK button. You will see the about button on the quick access bar. Press
the button to see what version of the software this is. If you need additional information to help troubleshoot the issue, please let me know.
3. On the currently open default blank project, first save the project by pressing the save button on the quick access tool bar. I've named this file "Project1.mpp", and the physical file location is the Documents folder on Windows 7. The task
name becomes "Task 1". I then click outside the row.
4. Select the entire row by clicking on the number column to the left of the spreadsheet. Press the "C" key while holding down the "Control" key. Now select the next row and press the "V" key, while holding down the "Control"
key. Do it again if it makes you feel better.
5. Press Ctrl-S to save. Now close the project by clicking on the "File" menu and selecting the close button.
6. Create a new Project file, by selecting "File", then "New", then "Blank project", then "Create". Repeat steps 3 through 5 but this time name the project "Project2.mpp"
7. Click on an empty row on the spreadsheet. This will serve as the placement location of the sub-project. Click on the project tab, Click on the "Subproject" button on the left of the ribbon and select Project1.mpp. Your original Project1
will appear as a sub-project. Select a row in this subproject and copy and paste this row onto the previous project. Everything should work fine and your rows should paste.
8. Now try pasting onto the same subproject on the row below. The application crashes.
Thanks again for your reply,

Cut and paste bitmap, this is killing me
Okay so here's the deal, i'm just trying to figure out how to
cut and paste bitmap selections. I realize that in the fireworks
help it just tells you to make a marquee selection, cut, and paste.
this works sometimes, most of the time it doesn't though. A lot of
the time it cuts and pasts a marquee selection that's free
floating, so when i move it it just moves on top of the bitmap, and
doesn't move the pixels within the selection. Also, sometime when
i'm doing this multiple times, i'll cut and paste sucessfully, and
then try it again, cut, and when i paste it pastes the previous
selection even though i just supposedly cut a new one, AHHH. Then
also someitmes when i paste, i just get the marquee line pasted,
and i can't do anything with other tools until i hit escape, though
i don't know why.
Also when i try to reshape it with the distort or skew tool,
there's no telling what will happen. Sometimes the selection
reshapes, sometimes just the marquee line, who knows. there is no
help in the fireworks help i've read the whole thing. Someone who
knows please give me a rundown on how to do this sucessfully
.It might be helpful for you too look at the Layers Panel
while doing all
this.

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. -
Cut and Paste doesn't work in lots of apps
I was surprised that cut and paste does not work in Twitter, in App descriptions and other places. It's nice that it works on web sites and email text, notes, etc. But, am I wrong about this?

I don't understand your reply. I am able to copy and paste from web sites without any problems.
That's because cut and paste to a web page isn't the same copy and paste from it. Your first post (and the title of this thread) referred to +cutting and pasting to+ a twitter web page.
You can copy text from anywhere, but you can +cut and paste+ only to editable fields.

I synced with a new computer, lost apps. Reinstalled and office2HD had all docs still in, but now I can not get the cut and paste feature to work? Also had problems with Gmail account and deleted and created new, so not sure I can download the app a 3rd time?
Two ways.
- You can sync with the new computer by following these instructions
Sync Your iOS Device with a New Computer Without Losing Data - How-To Geek
All the apps have to be in the iTunes library so the app data will have a place to go.
- Or just restore from iCloud backup. That will also pull down the apps from iCloud. Your apps data will also be restored. -

Cut and Paste text on a Flex App
Is there any way to cut and paste multiple value at a time
from a Flex App? we have a summary screen which has various text
elements together to give a label/status value. The user can cut
and paste one text at a time, but they can't select all text on
that screen and cut/paste everything. Any ideas?Perhaps you could build a copy to clipboard link that strings
together all of the pieces and pastes the text to the clipboard?
There is an example on the Flex Style Explorer
Export All CSS (lower left of the screen)

I synced my IPad2 with a new computer and lost all apps. I reinstalled apps. When I reinstalled the Office2HD, all documents were still ther, but I am trying to cut and paste one and it is not allowing? Will I need to save new documents there for this function to work?
There are dozens of possibilities, Lisa.
Which C50-A do you have? There is a label on the bottom.
What security applications do you have installed? Webroot is a common offender.
Do you have Microsoft Office installed? If so, which version?
Do you use Bluetooth?
Did you upgrade to Windows 8.1 properly, following carefully the instructions here?
How to Update from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1
Find a situation that always gives you trouble, so that know when we learn something.
Then see if that trouble occurs after a clean boot.
1. Open the System Configuration utility (msconfig.exe). You can do that by typing msconfig at the Start screen and pressing Enter.
2. On the Services tab, set the Hide all Microsoft services check box and then click Disable all.
3. On the Startup tab, click Open Task Manager, right-click and disable each Startup item. Then close Task Manager.
4. Back on the System Configuration screen, click OK, and restart the computer.

When I try to cut and past text from Firefox to Microsoft Works I receive an error that says 'Not enough memory, close applications and restart windows'. This never works! I never had this issue with IE! How can I fix this issue?
If the crashing only happens with other peoples projects it could be for a variety of reasons. There are tons of asset references saved in the library (the location every item was imported from) and much more. None of those locations will exist on your system and internal complications may simply happen, especially with any runtime shared assets.
If possible you should consider adding more system RAM so you can multi-task. RAM is extremely cheap. I'm assuming from a smaller 500GB HD and 4GB RAM that you're probably on a laptop however. Installing RAM is still usually pretty easy if you have the notebook manual (or grab it online). It typically involves just lifting the keyboard or opening a single panel on the bottom of the notebook but it varies greatly. At any rate, 8GB RAM would help you quite a bit. If you do, just make sure you get the correct type of RAM (again, in the specs in your manual).
Even when you run out of physical RAM, Flash (like any other application) will still see more RAM based on the OS's swap memory setting (using available space on your HD as RAM). It will get much slower but Flash should see the total amount the 32bit OS can handle for RAM (it doesn't know if it's physical fast RAM or SWAP (fake) HD RAM though). If you open other apps with Flash they should also operate, but will also use swap RAM and you've probably noticed your HD crunching a lot while more apps are open.
That said, I have a 4GB RAM in my older i7 lappie and have used Flash CS5.5 and CS6 on it extensively, with other applications open. Although my projects contain mild assets and mostly tons of code. No issues at all. I just think your heavy assets are crashing you.
Either way, glad you got your work done. You're welcome and good luck! -

With PS 7
create new
Place two objects on the new file
then you may cut copy and paste
Cs2
create new
place two object on the new file
Cut is not available how does one cut and paste in new fileIf your using File>Place then photoshop cs2 creates what's known as Smart Objects, which photoshop 7 didn't have.
In photoshop cs2 you can rasterize the smart objects and that should make the Cut function available.
Select both placed layers, right click on the area to the right of the tumbnail and select Rasterize Layers.
If in photoshop cs2 you to Help>Photoshop Help and look under Layers>Smart Objects, that should give you a good overview of what smart objects are. -
all my contacts have cell phone numbers next to their name. i would like to print a list of only this field. How do i do this? i tried to cut and past to Excel but it not a "clean fit" and is more trouble than it is worth. is there an easier way?
Firefox does not have a contacts list. Any contacts list will be part of a website that you are using, you need to contact the support for the site to see if they have an option to export the contacts.
