How do you copy and paste a bookmark? I can do this with explorer, why can't I do this with a program that is supposed to be better?

I can not copy and paste a bookmark from Firefox to an open window on my desktop. I also can not find a favorite folder like the one I have when I used to use Explorer?

If you use the icon at the left hand end of the address bar that should drag and drop on to your desktop and create a link to the webpage. That link should then be usable by your default browser i.e. Firefox
Firefox does not use a folder of favourite files, although it is able to export bookmarks in the HTML format. used by Internet Explorer.
Firefox uses a special database of bookmarks and you interact with them using the dropdown menu lists and the Bookmarks Library / manager see
* How to use bookmarks to save and organize your favorite websites
*[[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar]]
* [[Get started with Firefox - An overview of the main features#w_bookmark-a-website]]_bookmark-a-website <br /> A long article and worth scrolling up and down to learn about Firefox

How Do You Copy and Paste in iPhoto

How do you copy and paste in iphoto.
When I highlight a picture and duplicated it I click on the duplicate picture and drag it into my other event however it takes the original and the duplicate pictures into the new event and I lose the pictures from the original event. All I want is the same picture in separate events. This is really frustrating me can somebody please help me with this.

At this time, to the best of my knowledge you can't. Use QuickTime 7 Player which should be in your Utilities folder (if not, it can be installed using the Optional Installs on your Snow Leopard install disk).

How do you copy and paste on Android?

When I'm browsing various sites there is often a need to either copy text from a web page or paste text from elsewhere on the phone (such as a password manager app) into a form on a web page. When using the stock Android browser this is generally accomplished by a long-tap on the text or form. However, when using Firefox this doesn't do anything. So I would like to know how, when using Firefox on Android, I can copy and paste text. Please bear in mind that the phone I am using - the HTC Evo - is a touchscreen device and has no physical keyboard.
Thank you for any help.

I installed the nightly, per your suggestion. And it seems copy / paste is now almost working. The one problem I've encountered is that when trying to paste into a password field that masks your entry the "Paste" option doesn't come up in the context menu after a long tap on the password field. I've encountered this on the 3 sites I've tried so far - Amazon, Android Central, and Best Buy's credit card management. Pasting the username works just fine, so it seems it's something about the masking of the password entry box.
Thanks for pointing me towards the nightlies. I'll keep an eye on them and keep testing things out.

How do you copy and paste a photo from the internet without a mouse?

Pointing, clicking, and getting around
When you move your mouse or finger on a trackpad, you control a pointer (also known as a cursor) that moves across your screen. The pointer allows you to select and interact with the various items on your screen, including selecting files, clicking buttons, dragging sliders, and so on. Sometimes the pointer may look like a hand, a crosshair, an I-beam, or another icon, depending on what you're doing and the application you're using.
For example, if you're using Safari to view this webpage and move the pointer across it, notice that it turns into an I-beam when you move it over text or a text field. When you see this, you can usually interact with the text or field below it. When you move the pointer over a button or link, the pointer turns into a hand, letting you know that you can click on the item.
Depending on what you're doing and what application you're using, your pointer (far left) may change appearances
Clicking your mouse button or trackpad button once allows you to select the item that your pointer is on. In other words, if your pointer is on a file's icon, clicking once will select it. If the pointer is on a button or link, clicking once will activate it. If your pointer is on a text field, clicking once highlights the field and allows you to start typing text in it.
If you want to open a file, folder, or application, click your mouse button or trackpad twice. This is known as double-clicking. In general, you'll need to double-click items if you want to open them from a Finder window or the desktop. The exception to this is opening stuff from the Dock—just click once on an icon in the Dock to open it.

How do you copy and paste

ok, i am going to apologize in advance, I am a new Mac user and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do a simple copy and paste since there appears to be no right click functionality with the mouse. i have tried help topics in Word for Mac but it does not seem to address the issue, I did a search for "copy and paste" but nothing came up that was helpful in the search results. at some point in time i will go to an apple store and take a course but as most of you know time is at a premium!

BTW if like keyboard shortcuts Command C is copy and Command V is paste.
Also as a recent switcher from MS Windows you will problably find these links useful.

How do you copy and paste automation?

Is there a way to copy and paste automation in logic instead of redrawing the same automation later in the song I asked the same question a few weeks ago and some one replied to go to automation preferences and change the setting move automation with regions to always or ask I did this but this simply just moves the automation with the region if you drag it from its original place I want to copy and paste the region and the have the automation with it hope someone knows what I'm on about cheers
p.s does any know if there is a key board command to turn the cycle mode on/off I looked in the key command preferences but could not find it

Hold down the option key, then drag the region. This will copy the regions AND the automation (as long as you have automation preferences set to move the automation with the region).
Also, there is a hidden feature in Logic, that used to be called the automation folder. t was accessible via a key command in Logic 6, and then they removed that key command in version 7. Why they hid this is beyond me, as it is a very useful thing.
But if you go to your key commands and assign a key command to "Automation Event List", this will open an Event List window showing you the songs automation. Now with that List Window open, hit Apple/1. This opens a new Arrange page, but you'll notice that this new arrange page is showing you all the songs automation data, represented as regions.
From this page, you can then cut and move your automation just like you do audio and MIDI regions.

How do you copy and paste track changes material in Pages from one point in a document to another and keep both the old text along with the track changed thus far in the new pasted location?

Depending on whether track changes is on/paused, Pages thinks the pasted material is either all new and thus highlights it as a big track change or just copies the old material along with the edits as plain text so that I cannot see my track changes. I need to be able to copy and paste in the same document and still be able to see the older text along with the changes to certain sections thus far. Is this possible? I need a step-by-step "talk to me like I'm five" instructional if what I would like can be done.
Thanks for any help!

How do you copy and paste an adjustment layer to the center of a new doc?

Hi,
I know I can drag an adjustment layer to a new document, but it's never in the center. So I end up with an image with adjustments made, but not across the whole image. Therefore I have to eyeball and properly center the adjustment layer to make sure the adjustment sits in the center and is therefore made across the whole image.
Is there a way, or a shortcut, to do this whole process much easier? For the steps I have to do and hassle, I usually skip copy and pasting an adjustment layer and just re-create a new one.
They have to have made a way to do this, but I can't find the instructions online anywhere!
thanks!
Liz

Forgot to add that it would be an adjustment layer with some kind of mask on it already. The mask is uncentered when copy and pasted which throws it off.
I guess the same question would go towards doing the same for an object. How to copy and paste it over to a new doc, keeping its position within the document? is this possible?

How do you copy and paste a pictures and send it to your email on a ipad?

trying to copy and paste a picture so I can email it to myself

Where are you trying to copy the picture from? If it is from a website - tap and hold down on the photo until a Copy option pops up. Tap Copy in order to copy the photo. Go the mail app, start the email, tap and hold down on the body of the email and a Paste option will pop up. Tap Paste to paste the photo into the email.
Not all pictures can be copied from a website. If the photo is copyrighted, you will not be able to copy it.
Now since your question was a bit vague, if that didn't answer your question, provide more details

The Mac has the best User Interface for casual Users anywhere. To get started, Choose Copy from the Edit Menu in every Application, and use Paste from the Edit menu in every Application. Make sure that is working the way you expect.
Once you get used to the way it is supposed to work, look at those items on the menu for their keyboard Shortcuts, and substitute the Shortcut to speed up your work.

How do I copy and paste from internet I could do this on internet explorer

I need to be able to copy from the internet and paste in my reports.
I can't do that on Foxfire! Help

After highlighting something on a web page by left-click and dragging the mouse, you can go to Firefox button (or File) > Edit. Hover your mouse pointer over the 3 images to the right of Edit for a tooltip (scissors = cut, two pages = copy, clipboard = paste) or click the arrow to the far right of Edit for a drop-down, non-icon list of the functions available.
In Windows you can also right-click (without moving the mouse pointer around) the highlighted text, then choose Copy. On the document, email, etc., that you are copying to, you can use right-click, then choose Paste.
