How do I copy a URL from a message without opening it in Safari

Someone sent me a URL in a sms.  I want to copy it an put it in an appointment.  Everytime I touch the link it opens in Safari.  I just want to copy it.  Can I do that?  Thanks.

Tap and hold on the link, and a pop-up should appear. Tap Copy. If that doesn't work, tap the whole message and choose copy, then paste it wherever you want and delete the part that you don't need.

  • How do i copy a url from History

    I have visited a site on 'firefox for android', how can i just copy the url without opening the page again?

    The long way around appears to be:
    * long press the entry
    * tap Share
    * tap application to receive the URL
    * in the receiving application, select and copy the URL
    Or if you were planning to text/mail it off to someone anyway, that last step isn't needed.

  • [Linux] How can I see if there are new messages without opening Thunderbird?

    Hi folks
    I'm working on Linux Fedora (20) and am wondering if there's any way to see if I have new emails without opening Thunderbird again. I usually have Thunderbird minimized and when a new email arrives, I get a desktop notification, which is great. But - if I'm away from my computer for a minute and an email arrives, I'll often not see it until the next one comes in.
    On mac, the thunderbird icon would get one of those +1 badges. Is there any way to achieve this? For example have the title of the Thunderbird window tile change from "Inbox - Mozilla Thu..." to "[2] Inbox - Moz..." - or just leave the notification until I click it away.
    Thanks for any tips.
    Cheers

    Thanks again Fabián, this add on is exactly what I need!

  • 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.

  • Can not copy a URL from the address bar/line

    Why is it proving so difficult for me to copy a URL from the address bar using Safari?  When I click on the link I want to copy, it does not highlight.  I have used Command L and Command C, and that works but there has to be a simpler way.  I also read that if I click the address bar once, then press the control key and click on it again that a menu would appear with cut, paste, copy.  That does happen, but all options are greyed out, and not selectable.  Another google search resulted in someone saying there was a button or arrow to click on and that this tool would copy the URL.
    The URL I am copying is very long, longer that the address bar window
    What Gives Here?

    Click the icon (favicon) to the left of the URL.
    That will select the entire URL.
    Command C will copy the URL.

  • How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another page or file - on the same screen?

    How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another - on the same screen?

      Open both of your images in the Editor. Click on the image you want to copy and press Ctrtl+A (select all) followed by Ctrl+C (copy) then click the tab for your other image and press Ctrl+V (paste)
    Alternatively click on your background image then simply drag the second image from the photo/project bin and drop it into the main editor workspace on top of the background image. Use the move tool to position and the corner handles of the bounding box to scale.

  • I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?

    I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?  Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    This should give you some good insight, I'd probably store them on an External HD on the old machine and then just drag and drop to the new machine.

  • 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.

  • My partner has my former iPad 1, I have an iPhone 5 and iPad Gen III.  I want to copy my contacts list to his iPad.  We both have Apple ID's and we share a PC.  How do i copy the contacts from my iPhone, iCloud or iPad to his iPad 1?

    copy my contacts list to his iPad.  We both have Apple ID's and we share a PC.  How do i copy the contacts from my iPhone, iCloud or iPad to his iPad 1?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

  • How can I copy a url and paste into my email or other page?

    I used to be able to copy a url from wherever I was, say Youtube and my browser would remember that and I could paste it on another site, say email or Facebook, etc.

  • The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed.  How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?

    The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed.  How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?  When I try to use Picassa to import them I can only see the 'Camera Roll; folder but I have several other folders with hundreds of pictures in them

    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • How do I copy existing songs from Computer Hard Drive to IPOD 30GB

    How do I copy existing songs from Computer Hard Drive to IPOD 30GB? I am slightly learning disabled and have been unable to figure out how to add and or update. Thnaks

    If the songs are in iTunes and the iPod is set to sync automatically, the songs should already be on the iPod; if they aren't, follow the instructions in this article and post back with any error messages.
    If the iPod is set to sync manually, drag the songs onto the iPod in the iTunes source list.
