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.

  • Cut and Paste problem with links in DW

    Anyone have a clue as to why this is happening.....
    when I cut and paste a complex link -- DW seems to add some characters.... see below....

    Simple links stay the same... but this got me in a little hot water with a client when I sent out an email from constant contact....
    Thanks

    oh... couple things.... I'm working on:

    "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 problems

    Cut and paste between program has been real buggy since upgrading.  Today, I am trying to cut lines of text out of InDesign and paste into either a web browser or Mail, and nothing happening.  Text cuts OK, cause I can paste it back into ID, but won't let me paste elsewhere.  Had the same problem earlier pasting between Excel and ID.  Anybody else experiencing this?

  • Adobe Reader/Preview  pdf-to-Word cut and paste problems...

    Hi,
    I often cut and paste from pdfs of documents where the text is in two columns, to Word documents...and without fail, I get a jumbled-up mix of BOTH columns of text that I have to mess with, deleting bits I don't want, squishing-up the text I do, etc...
    What am I doing wrong, and is there anything I can do to stop this happening?!
    Thanks very much for any advice.

    If you are using Adobe Reader to open the pdf then the selection tool should highlight what you are copying and pasting. Unfortunetley sometimes with double row columns you are forced to copy parts of text that you don't want.

  • Cut and paste problem

    When I cut and paste from a photoshop document into a new image, the edges are automatically feathered, as pictured below. How can I keep this from happening?

    Make certain your Feather value is 0 when creating a selection.

  • Cut and paste problem in an applet :(

    Hi All,
    I have developed an applet based GUI and now I wanted to cut and paste some text from an external application say from a notepad(Windows) to a
    JTextfield in the applet. I tried to do it on a applet but it was not allowing me to do it. I was able to do the same(cut and paste) on a textfield when run as an application. So does the cut and paste operation has anything to do with the sandbox security provided by an applet model?. This sounds bit crazy or maybe Im missing something here. Would appreciate help on this.
    Thanks a ton!
    Thanks,
    Ram

    You can always use CTRL-C and CTRL-V to copy/paste, but if you want to right-click, you have to implement it yourself.. Here's MY implementation, if even has 'Undo'!

  • Apple Mail Cut and Paste Problem

    When I cut and past in Apple Mail font changes to smaller size.  Any suggestions?

    As you know, type sizes are uniform - unless you use cut-and-paste. The resulting text will sometimes be smaller, larger, or different than the type-style you began with.
    Personally, I'd ignore it. But if you want to fix the font size, you can alter it in the Format Bar on the top of the Mail program. This allows you to change the type, size, and even alter special characters. To make the text uniform, highlight the text you want to alter, open the Format Bar, and change the settings.

  • Never in all my years have I seen this cut and paste problem - can anyone help?

    Hi all... I've been using Illustrator since v5, and never before has something foxed me as much as this...
    I have a document supplied from a customer to make up into packaging artwork. To start with, the file is 19MB which set the alarm bells ringing, as it has no images etc, and is fairly simply made up (it's a milk carton sleeve). However, when you copy any single element (even a simple shape) from the file and paste to a new doc it takes literally 2 mins to copy, and a minute or so to paste it into the new doc, and then comes in with nearly 100 colours - all called 'Deleted Global Color (1-100)'. You can delete these colours by selecting remove unused colours, but even then when you save the file down (an A4 page with a simple shape coloured in black), the file is 47MB!!! (which is obviously why I can't attach it)...
    I've looked in the appearances etc and nothing seems untoward - all masks have been disabled etc. As you can imagine, the file is very hard to work with, and even to deconstuct it is proving to be an impossible feat.
    If anyone has ever seen anything like this or if anyone knows what might be causing the problems or can suggest any way of tackling it, then I can be most grateful. I can supply a file if needed, but as mentioned, they are quite large!
    Thanks in anticipation, Karl

    Thanks Tom - I'm sure this is related to my problem in regards to the file having a severe 'lame ducks' problem. However, the answer in Teri Pettit's post (http://adobe.groupbrowser.com/t177412.html) is very specific to the user's problem she is addressing, so when I followed the instructions it didn't work for my file as I couldn't locate the offending string of text, as that must have been specific to the file that was being looked at.
    My file seems much worse! The file Teri was looking at was saving down at 6-8MB - mine saves down anything between 40-80MB. Though I'm sure it is the same problem.
    I could really do with getting in touch with Teri Petitt, but I am unsure as to how I can do this, as the adobe group browser doesn't let you reply to posts.
    Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction - I feel like I'm getting closer to a solution, just hope I can get in touch with Teri...
    Cheers, Karl

  • I've suddenly lost the Cut and paste function.... Firefox or system problem?

    In the last 2 -3 days I do not get the cut and paste options when I highlight and right click. This is across the board.

    Start Firefox in a special diagnostic mode called "Safe mode:"
    * Click the Firefox button and in the help menu, select '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled'''
    * Or in Firefox 4-9, hold down '''Shift''' while selecting the shortcut you normally use to open the browser
    * ''For now if you encounter a Safe Mode window, select <u>Continue in Safe Mode</u>.
    If your problem is gone with Safe Mode, it is most likely caused by an add-on. Read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] to find the culprit.

  • 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.

  • Multiple problems: can't open two windows, browser doesn't close although window disappears, and after working for a while I loose my ability to cut and paste or use drop down arrows

    Maybe two weeks ago I discovered that I could no longer open two windows at a time (I can still open multiple tabs). I am also having problems with cutting and pasting, which is crucial to my on-line job. Plus, when I exit Firefox, it doesn't always shut down, so then when you go to re-open, of course, it won't (unless you go into process and turn it off). I have re-installed multiple times and I have also used restore. Nothing seems to be fixing this and I really, really don't want to use IE, especially for work.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    See also "Hang at exit":

    Maybe also do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • I can't be the only person who has this problem - when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that

    I can't be the only person who has this problem with iCal- when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that.

    Yeah that works, but, it involves a click on the event, a click on edit, a click on the date, keystrokes, plus, since you can't see the next month you have to have a calendar in front of you so as to put it to the right date. It's easier just to cut it and advance the month and paste it, once you are in the right month you can move it around helter skelter willy nilly no problems. Although now that you mention it I will try it, maybe it is easier than cut and paste as I don't really care about the date, as long as it gets moved into the right month I can drag it around all I want.

  • Copy and Paste Problem in Dreamweaver CS5.5

    Hi All,
    I saw the posts for Dreamweaver CS4 for copy and paste problems. I tried all the suggestions but to no avail.  My copy and paste would not work. Then I found what worked for me...
    I went to Edit --> Keyboard Shortcuts --> and I changed from "Dreamweaver Standard" to "Dreamweaver Mx2004". For the moment, it is working.  I am on XP Professional.
    From the other posts the suggestions were...
    Switch to Classic Mode
    Delete the Configuration file
    Uncheck "Enable related files"
    It was a problem for sure, and hopefully I won't be back for this one  :-)  Good luck
