How can I copy a specific sentence within an iMessage on my iPhone?

Everytime I try to copy a word or a sentence from an iMessage, it only allows me to copy the entire message.  I do not have the ability to select words or sentences like I do in a webpage or within notes.

Copy from Messages.
Paste into Notes.
Copy the desired sentence from Notes.

  • Noob question - How can I copy a specific time sequence from an audio file

    Hello, I want to chop up an audio file
    into time-specific lengths.  How can I accomplish this precisely?  I know I can position the playhead precisely but
    how can I copy a chunk of an audio file, for example, if I wanted the segment from 00:02:34.7
    to 00:05:42.1?  Is my only option the "drag" selection of the
    Time Selection tool?  Is there not an option to do some start and end point setting so I can be as arbitrarily precise as necessary?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • How can I Copy/paste the pixels within a frame in a video layer to another frame? (It duplicates the whole frame instead.)

    I'm making a handdrawn animation in the timeline using video layers, so each video layer contains the frames for the animation. The method works great..except for this -
    If lasso select a section of one frame and try to paste into another frame, it duplicates the the whole frame and pastes it with an arbitrary long frame duration for some reason (not the same duration as the frame its copied from)....not at all what I'm trying to do. Any work around? I've tried all the variations of 'paste special' to no avail.
    Thanks.

    Images and other object can either be floating or be inline. Yours are floating and will not move with the text. Inline object will move with the text but can't be outside the text layer. It doesn't help if you have created section in the document. Floating images doesn't care. Nor will it help if you create several documents that you want to merge later. Doesn't make any difference.
    My suggestion is that until your text is finished you have the images inline. Then as a last editing you can start make the images floating and move them a little.

  • How can i copy my diary from blackberry to iphone 3gs - this si my first iphone so not sure how to use anything at the moment but my diary is the most important bit i need!

    how can i copy my diary from my old blackberry to new iphone 3GS - this is my first iphone so i am complete novice!  I hope to avoid re-inputting every entry!

    You probably already figured this out, but....
    The iPhone will sync from various things on your computer (check the manual for details) but if your Blackberry won't export the data or sync to anything, then you'll need to get the info off the Blackberry manually.
    Alternatively, it might be possible to set the Blackberry up to sync with Google Calendar, maybe, to export the data? I don't know anything about Blackberrys. Try a google search or ask on BB forums with help getting the data out.
    But it will be easier to manually type into something on your desktop/web, then sync with the iPhone, rather than hand-entering on the phone itself. Then keep syncing with whatever you decided to use, so that you'll never need to do this again.

    Is there a step-by-step instruction guide I can find re how to so import photos through iTunes?
    For windows pc's Photo albums:
    1) Create a master sync folder on your pc with no photo files at the root level of the folder.
    2) Create sub-folders within the master sync folder with the subfolders named what you want the ipad's photo albums to be named.
    3) Place the photo files you want to sync in the appropriate subfolder within the master sync folder.
    4) In itunes on the photos tab, select the master folder as the sync folder.
    5) After syncing, each subfolder will be an album on the ipad with the proper photos contained there-in.

  • How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

    How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

    Hi George,
    Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
    Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • How can I copy a file through a logon script with UAC enabled ?

    Hello,
    I have a batch that is copying a file to "%public%\desktop\" (windows 7) folder through a logon GPO (GPO from user configuration).
    Everytime I try, I have an "access denied". I know it is because UAC and I don't want to disable it.
    Through explorer.exe, I can copy this file with no problem with this same account.
    How can I copy a file to such folder through group policy please ?
    I dont want to use GPP as the script is used on WinXP too and I dont have the hotfix to support GPP on this operating systems.
    Thank you

    Since you are copying to a non-user specific-directory, I'd recommend
    using a startup script instead...

  • How can I copy/paste without copying the formatting?

    How can I copy/paste without copying the formatting? For example, if I copy a sentence from a website and paste it on text editing program, it copies all the formatting as well. How can I turn that off?

    There is an app called "No Formatting" in the App Store. It is simple and works perfectly - it strips formatting from paste (Ctr-V). I needed it for Word and Excel, which don't have keyboard shortcuts for this. It can be toggled on and off from the Menu Bar.

  • How can I copy and Paste in the newly converted PDF to WORD?

    How can I copy and paste in the newly converted document?  I can save it to any Word format and cut within it, but not paste what I just cut or copy and paste.

    Try copying all of the content in your Word document to a new document, then see if you can selectively copy and paste.
    Let us know if that helps!

  • How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?

    How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?  I can physically copy the tunes as mp3's but the phone does not seem to be able to play all of them.   Do I need to copy an entire album or can I just pick & choose individual songs?   The phone is question is an LG running who knows what for an operating system.

    AAC is Advanced Audio Coding.  Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD).  More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder).  Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
    You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button.  Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder.  After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version."  You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding.  Hopefully your phone will play that.

  • How can i copy apps from one computer to another?

    how can i copy apps from one computer to another?

    You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
    The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.
