How do I paste a url into an RSS reader?

A blog I like said, "To subscribe to this blog, right-click the orange RSS button and paste the url into your RSS reader." I see the RSS button, but don't know what an RSS reader is."

If that RSS feed is send with the correct MIME type then clicking that link with the mouse should open a preview window with a button to subscribe to that feed.

How do I past a URL into Firefox browser

Adobe Photoshop wants me to past their URL address into my browser in order to register to verify for a online account.

Don't you have the location bar visible?
See [[Smart Location Bar]]
* In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar.
* Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
* Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

Adobe Photoshop asked me to copy and paste a URL into my "browser" to confirm my e-mail address. What, and where, is my Browser? How do I do that?

Upon register with Adobe Photoshop, they asked me to copy and paste a URL into my "browser" to confirm my e-mail address. What, and where, is my Browser? How do I do that?

If this has arrived in an email from Adobe, it's probably legitimate.
Usually though, you can click the link and it will confirm your registration automatically.
Otherwise copy it and then paste it into the location bar.

Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
Yes that is correct.
Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

HT3708 Can I not paste a URL into the field? It keeps beeping at me.

Whenever I try to paste a URL into the link field, I get the beep alert. Does Apple seriously expect people to type in entire URLs?

It means you have an illegal character in your clipboard eg a return or some non-basic alpha-numeric character.
Or it contains styling information or something preceeding the http etc.

How do you paste an image into a rectangular marqee forcing it to resize into the marqee?

How do you paste an image into a rectangular marqee forcing it to resize into the marqee?

Not sure this would address your issue, but the Crop Tool works that way: set the width and height, plus resolution, and Crop does everything. You could then paste the result into another file if that completes your process.

Is there a way to paste an URL into the file selection dialog box?

Hi,
I would like to share on Friendfeed.com images that I find on websites. On Windows, I click on "Add - photos" and I can paste the URL of the image directly into the dialogue box.
On my Mac 10.6.6, I can't find a way to do that: the dialog box only allows me to click on a file's name, I can't paste anything. So I have to save the image on my disk, and then upload it on Friendfeed.
It's not a big deal, but still more cumbersome.
Is there a way for me to avoid saving the image on my hard drive?
thanks for any help that will come this way

Thomas, you really need to relax I just asked a simple technical question: is X technically possible?
There were only two meaningful answers to that: yes and no.
But, no, you and others started to imply there were some dark issues of image copyright infringement, which - if I was not very relaxed myself - would be offending. You don't know what images I'm talking about, so why in the world did you start by assuming that I was infringing copyright?
(read again my previous answers to you, and you'll see I was not condoning infringement. I was simply saying it was not an issue here). Are you going around the web entering any discussion about how guns work, warning that killing people is a crime? What about knifes? Car forums and speed limits? (I could go on, as you can imagine).
But, since we're talking about copyright, you may want to lower your expectations about how "easily" you could sue me. The world - and its legal systems - is quite a different thing from the USA, you know.
Finally, about Friendfeed. Read again what I wrote (leaving aside all the copyright concerns that are distracting you ) and you'll see I mentioned that of course there's a "normal" way to enter the Url. It's just two different actions, with two different results. One of these actions is apparently not possible with a Mac. Too bad. As for Friendfeed being a crappy website: I see you're a web developer. I wish you to be as successful a developer as the people who created Friendfeed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bret_Taylor). Some of its functionalities were years ahead of the competition, which is why they have been acquired by Facebook, and today - after more than a year with no development whatsoever - they still make for a very good social network. Go and have a look at it, you may learn a thing or two.
(I wrote finally, but I was wrong). One more thing: I couldn't resist, and I took a look at your webpage and resumé. I'm not going to write here what you did from "August 1997 to August 2007" (although it's public, so it shouldn't be a problem). But let me express my full appreciation for that! (I'm serious).
cheers!

How do I fire a URL into QuickTime from a web page?

Looking at the Apple trailer site and I like the way that if you view a HD trailer it loads QuickTime and opens the video straight into QuickTime
Now I assume it's sending the URL of the MOV file to QuickTime to play.
How can I make a link from a HTML page send the URL into QuickTime to replicate the same way to run a video.
At the moment I build "pop up" windows to display movies in, and I think using QuickTime in this way will be better so if someone has popups blocked my movies will still play.
It must be simple to do.
I once did a site for someone that need a podcast and I got it to send it to iTunes. But I cant seem to see how to do the same for a movie to QuickTime

http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/03war/
The technique is known as Poster Movies. A tiny image file saved as .mov file that can either act as a "placeholder" (target="myself") or act like a "link" (target="quicktimeplayer").
http://www.qtbridge.com/pageot/pageot.html
Free software to help write the proper page code.
Another method is a QuickTime Media Link (.qtl file). These tiny text based files can be placed anywhere in a Web page and will always download (Mac or PC) and will launch the QuickTime Player.

One of mine as an example.

Crashing - copy and paste iTunes URL into hyperlink panel

Is anyone else having InDesign crash when they copy and paste an iTunes URL into their hyperlink panel? I am!
Very annoying since I'm making an app that has over 50 of them!
Thanks.

I never use the hyperlinks panel. Instead I find that creating no fill/no stroke buttons gives me a better (more stable) results.

How do I paste a hyperlink into the new version of Numbers and show the link name rather than its URL?

I used to be able to do this using paste and match style, but now instead of showing the link name as on the website of origin it is pasting the whole URL. thanks

Hi Debbsy,
Hyperlinks in Numbers 3 are a bit of a mystery. However, here is one way that works.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6630204
Debbsy's question
For example, the URL to this thread in Cell A2
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6630204
In Cell B2, insert the HYPERLINK function
=HYPERLINK(A2,"Debbsy's question")
Hide Column A.
Regards,
Ian.

When I paste a URL into an email body (Yahoo mail), just the text is pasted rather that the live web link I want represented. How can I change this so a pasted URL is shown as a live link in the email body?

The question says it all!

Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text on the "Compose New Mail page" there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).

Invalid URL when pasting YouTube URL into YouTube or HTML widgets?

Any known fix for INVALID URL WHEN PASTING URL OR EMBED CODE INTO YOUTUBE AND HTML WIDGETS?
And video doesn't play on the widget window but rather opens YouTube OUTSIDE of mu website separately!
It appears A LOT of people have had this Problem!

It's very simple.
This is what you paste in the URL field of the YouTube widget :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbvdzQ7uVPc
And this is the embed code from the YT page. Paste it in a HTML Snippet.
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/cbvdzQ7uVPc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
And in case you won't see anything in the HTML snippet, either publish the page to see the result or add http: before the //.
As you can see I haven't a problem. Probably because I'm not a lot of people.

In vsn 6.0.2 how can I paste a link into the body of a Yahoo e-mail and have the pasted result appear as a link?

o/s Windows XP Home
vsn of Firefox 6.0.2
Step 1) open firefox
Step 2) copy link from address bar into clipboard
Step 3) compose message in Yahoo
Step 4) paste contents of clipboard into body of the e-mail
result: the pasted value does NOT become a hyperlink
<on same pc, with same contents in clipboard>
Step 5) open IE
Step 6) compose message in Yahoo
Step 7) paste contents of clipboard into body of the e-mail
result: the pasted value becomes a hyperlink ... the fact that the link becomes a hyperlink in the IE browser makes me think that there may be something in the Firefox browser that is controlling whether the pasted value becomes a link.
I'm not sure, but I believe the update to firefox 6.0.2 was with the past few days.
I'm not sure, but I do not believe the symptoms from steps 1 - 4 were present a few days ago
Questions:
1) could this feature have been introduced in 6.0.2?
2) I would prefer it if the pasted value would become a
hyperlink when working in firefox; what steps do I need to take to make this happen?
Thank you

Now Tony, I know you can't hear my tone on a forum post but I was not complaining, simply stating facts . This change brought several people in my office to a grinding halt in a long established workflow that is really rather simple (and I thought was already assumed from the original post above ):
1) Select a set of records in FileMaker Pro 12 and export only their e-mail addresses as a CSV file.
2) Open that CSV file in Excel.
3) Copy the column of e-mail address.
4) paste into the appropriate recipient field in Mail.
5) Send
If I were to complain it would be about Apple's typically opaque approach to updates. There is no granular explanation of why changes were made or even "what" changes were made.
Complaining is futile since Apple is Apple and is unlikely to change, but sometimes it is cathartic to "shout into the void" .
I had thought about doing something with a formula in Excel and your suggestion was simple and helpful. Again, however, it is only a workaround for a long established helpful behavior that Apple has inexplicably broken/removed in Mavericks Mail.
I, and the other posters here, would love to have the capability back rather than have to add previously unneeded steps to our workflows.
Ultimately we may add scripting steps to the FileMaker side to export the address lists with commas inserted already if Apple ends up having permanently removed this feature.

How to copy&paste from _________ into terminal?

Whenever i try to copy text from e.g. a webpage, and paste it into terminal (e.g. an open emacs) I usually just get part of the text--either just a few lines, or most of the text. When trying to copy only a few lines, it works fine.
Any ideas?

Paste it into a text editor, such as TextEdit, and see what really gets transferred. Other than that, Unix and Terminal queries are best answered in the Unix forum under OS X Technologies.
