HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text

Z10 HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
Help Please. It should be so simple but in the maze of approaches to contacts from the phone or home screen which ever way you get there; how do I select a phone number, copy it and paste it into a text message to another contact so that I can send it on?
The logic of the interface is totally baffling to me most of the time. Can't there just be one contacts interface so that when you enter it from anywhere it presents the same options to edit etc. Cannot the three blobs be called up to allow a proper edit menu - copy/cut/paste/delete.
Can the favourites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?
Any help on any of these - much appreciated.

How Do I copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
The only option would be to to select the edit option on the contact and hold your finger on the number and select the copy option on the left side panel.
Can the favorites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
This feature is currently not available. 
Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?
This feature is currently not available.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks.

    Since downloading the new operating system on my iPhone 4S, I'm having trouble with my phone messaging.  I enter a number or input a number from my contacts and send my message.  I then receive a error message stating the message can't be sent and it shows a set of "1s" were added in front of the number I entered.  Ex: 1 (1) xxx-xxx-xxxx.  Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?

    I realize this. When calling prepaid cus service it only gives you the option to input your #. If you dont the system hangs up on you. When I input my number the system doesnt recognize it and hangs up on me.

  • How do I change which phone number from a contact will be dialed when I push a favorite in phone?

    How do I change which phone number from a contact will be dialed when I push a favorite button in phone? For example if a favorite dials a contact's office number and I want their cell to be called instead.

    Thanks again Chris.
    I was simply going to write that you were incorrect and there are no plus signs either, but I was certian you knew what was supposed to happen, and that I wasn't going soft either. So after staring at it for a while it just came to me: the file was full! I deleted just one favorite and both the plus and the Add to Favorites button appeared where you described.
    Thanks for your help,
    Larry

    The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
    You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
    Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
    I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

  • Myself and my partner had a iphones. Since the recent software update he now randomly receives texts from my contacts and also when im sending texts. Is this because we share the same apple id. This didnt happen before the software update.

    myself and my partner had a iphones. Since the recent software update he now randomly receives texts from my contacts and also when im sending texts. Is this because we share the same apple id. This didnt happen before the software update.

    You can both share the same Apple ID for purchases but i suggest one of you use another email for the use of iMessage, Facetime etc.
    It is easy to do, the easiest way is to set up an iCloud email directly from your iPhone. Once set up one of you will use this for iCloud services but both still use the existing Apple ID to make purchases.

  • Pulling information from an email and pasting it into the Subject line

    i have email requests coming in from project managers that are automatically created after they fill out a form.
    Outlook is set up with a rule on their machines to forward the request to my art dept.
    Problem is that the emails always have the name of the form as the subject line.
    the email generates project info within the body. Is there a way to set up a rule that will pull the info i want from the body of the email and amend the subject line with it?
    Nick

    I would like to use the
    "PROJECT NAME 
    CUSTOMER REFERENCE OR SITE NAME"
    (along with the information that would should have come after it)
    to become the subject line.
    I read from your previous post though that scripts should run after rules, so i would need to combine
    the rule i am already using into the script correct?
    I am a graphic designer, working on storefronts and fascias, i only dabble with outlook so thank you
    for your time.

  • Nokia 7230 - How to insert a phone number from Con...

    I know this is an issue with some other models, but HOW do I insert a phone number from my contacts into a text message?
    -If I go to Phonebook and "copy" number, then I try to paste it into my message, I get an answer that there is nothing to paste.
    -I cannot open the phonebook while I am in the texting window, there is no option, in old models one had "insert telephone number", with 7230 I can only  insert a smile or special character.
    -I DO NOT WANT to send a MMS with visiting card, just plain sms with a number taken from my contacts.
    Thanks to whoever can help!
    Mod

    Hi modjadii,
    The compact UI style used in 7230 does not allow copying phone number to text message the same way as in some previous models but please try this as a solution.
    Write a text message and when you need to insert phone number from your contacts select Options - More - Exit editor (or just press End key to return to idle screen). The text you have already written stays at the text editor and is visible once the editor is opened again.
    Open your contacts by choosing Names and select Options - More - Business card - Via text message and search the contact whose number you want to copy. After selecting the contact you'll get the phone number to screen and you can select Options - Editing options - Copy all.
    Now the number is copied for pasting and you can open the text message editor again and select Options - More - Modify text - Paste.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I copy a row from one sheet and paste it in a column in another sheet?

    I would like to copy a row of numbers from one sheet and paste it into a column in another sheet.  Is it possible to do this with numbers?

    Hi Dennis,
    Numbers doesn't have a built-in Paste Special > Transpose the way you have in Excel.  However, there are ways to do this in Numbers that are not difficult. 
    Here are two ways:
    Approach 1:
    Select the row of numbers, and command-c to copy to the system clipboard.
    Click on the canvas and command-v to paste, automatically creating a new table.
    With that new table still selected, in your menu choose Table > Transpose Rows and Columns.
    Select the cells in the transposed table, command-c to copy, click once in a cell of the destination column of your target table, and command-v to paste.
    Approach 2: (after a quick installation, very similar to Excel's built-in Paste Special > Transpose)
    Download this Copy Transpose Automator Service, and double-click to install (if necessary choosing Open Anyway in System Preferences > Security and Privacy).
    Thereafter to use just:
    select the row of numbers you want to copy
    with the cells still selected, choose Copy Transpose from the Numbers > Services menu
    click once in the destination column and command-v to paste the transposed values.
    Note that the second approach does not handle cells with formulas, whereas the first approach will.

  • How do I copy links and content from 1 tab and paste them in another?

    I'm trying to do my homework, which requires me to post where exactly I got the information. I need to copy web links listed in one tab and paste them into my blog in the other tab.

    You can copy the full URL for the page you're viewing from the Awesome Bar:
    <b>CTRL</> + <b>L</b> selects the full contents of the Awesome Bar (including http, etc. headers).
    <b>For Windows</b>:
    Copy with <b>CTRL</b> + <b>C</b> and paste with <b>CTRL</b> + <b>V</b>.

  • Can I cut, copy and paste a block of text in PL/SQL Developer?

    I have been using TextPad to put together SQL statements by using the cut, copy and pasting of BLOCKS of text.
    Example:
    I copy the describe of a table, replace varchar, number, date will 10 spaces and then copy the column names in a block and paste it further down the TextPad.
    Then I join the lines into one string, replace the spaces with commas
    Then I insert in front of the column name the INSERT INTO table_name(
    Then I get the values by copying from somewhere else and paste then in block text where they need to go. ETC, ETC.
    Thank you, Bill

    In 2.0 you should be able to just type
    INSERT INTO emp(
    and do multiple selections from code completion list of suggested emp columns (by holding ctrl or shift key). Same for "select" and "from" clauses (with optional auto aliasing).
