I can't copy and paste text into photoshop because the copy paste option is acting up

Let me explain. I found some text on a website I wanted to us for my project so I copied it into a text box that I made in photoshop. I edited the text to my liking and then hilighted the entire text. When I go to copy the text by right clicking and then clicking on copy it just pastes the original text from the website I got it from instead of copying the edited text. I even tried ctrl+ C and it still pasted the original text not copy the one I edited. Last resort- I re-edited my text and go to edit and click copy. Still no fix it just pastes the original text. For some reason photoshop is thinking that the copy option is a paste option. I have no idea why this is or how to fix this. This was not happening about an hour ago so I have no idea why this is happening. I even tried restarting my laptop and I even tried a test in a completely new photoshop document and it still does this. How do I fix this? I have photoshop CS4 currently installed. Help is appreciated.

  • Can't drag and drop photos into Photoshop CS6

    I'm having this problem since the last time I formatted my computer, and it is really annoying.
    Basically, when I try to drag an image into photoshop, the cursors changes into a circle with a slash in it (unavailable).
    I can open files by right clicking and choosing "Open with -> Adobe Photoshop CS6", and I can also open with "File > Open..." (ctrl+O)
    I've searched for a soltion for this and nothing worked.
    This is what I've tried doing so far:
    - Resetting the preferences (ctrl+alt+shift)
    - Running with administative rights
    - Running without administrative rights
    - Making sure I have premissions for the files
    - Making sure the files are not set as read-only
    - Changing the scratch disk option (Preference -> Performance)
    None of these worked, and I'm looking for another solution...
    Here are my PC specs:
    OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1
    CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 @ 2.50GHz
    RAM: 4.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR2 @ 400MHz
    Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. G31M-ES2L
    Graphic Card: 1024MB GeForce GT 240 (nVidia)

    Here is a quote from a past post with same issue.  Thread had no answer the solved problem, but most agreed it was a permission problem.

    Sounds like a corrupt registry issue -- the file extensions are not correctly associated with Photoshop.
    The default install adds all the registry entries, so something has gone wrong since then with the registry entries for Photoshop 64 bit.
    Have you used any "system optimizer" programs, or registry cleaners?

  • Problem pasting picture into Photoshop

    Yesterday, I went into Google images and copied pics and then used the paste option in Photoshop.
    Today, when I select a picture in Google, select Select All and Copy and then go into Photoshop the Paste option does not seem to be available.  I am not sure if I have turned something on or locked something in Photoshop.
    Can anyone help.  Please be specific re: icons or options I need to select because I am very new with Photoshop and don't know what most mean.
    Thanks so much.
    Darlene

    I was able to copy pictures in Google yesterday and paste with no problem.  I need to do a search to find something in Google and then when I find it, I open the picture up large and then copy it.
    I then go into Photoshop and paste it but again this is not working today.

  • How to copy and paste text into email without HTML gibberish

    I've had trouble for some time now copying and pasting text into and out of yahoo emails. I can't just copy and paste text, I have to first transfer to Word for Mac and then paste into a yahoo email. Then I end up with what looks like three lines of HTML gibberish at the start of the pasted text each time. Isn't there a clean and direct way of copy and paste of text into and from emails in yahoo? No other email I work with has this problem, and the Safari browser doesn't give this same issue
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == some recent Firefox update, I think

    I have to agree with bmalmquist.  Need for Speed seems to work great on the Playbook.  I didn't buy the Playbook to play games though.  RIM needs to shift their focus from games to useful and productive apps.  The apps I need to use are either missing very important features, or are just completely missing.  It is somewhat disconcerting to see new apps appear in App World only to discover that the new apps are mostly games.  I'm seeing lots of apps that would help me waste time, but very few that will actually help me be more productive.

  • I can't paste text into info boxes anymore with the latest version of itunes

    Ever since I downloaded the latest version of itunes (on Windows 7), I can no longer paste text into the info boxes when I edit song information. I can’t paste by right-clicking or Ctrl+V, this is driving me crazy because I’m trying to add info on a Russian artist with Cyrillic letters and I can’t do it! I didn’t buy the song from itunes so it can’t be issues with Copyrighting although the same thing happens with songs from the store and every other song in my library. I can paste text into the lyrics section but that’s it. I restarted my computer after reinstalling the latest versions of itunes and Firefox today hoping it would fix my problem but it didn’t. Is this happening to anyone else? I hope someone can help me! Oh and it isn’t just with Russian, I tried to paste English info just to see if it was a problem with recognizing Cyrillic and still nothing pastes, the boxes just stay blank.
    Itunes is annoying me more than ever. With the constant updates you’d think they would be able to improve all bugs but once one problem is fixed another occurs and it’s so irritating because I couldn’t care less about how my library looks as long as everything is organized in a simple way and I can sync my ipod without spending forever on itunes re-editing stuff and readjusting to updated layout changes. Apple’s attempts at making things look “cool” isn’t worth the F-ing constant problems which matter more! Okay, rant over

    With the latest version of iTunes, my library screen has changed completely and I no longer have a Summary tab to select manual syncing of my iPod when I plug it into my computer.
    That would be Manually manage, not Manually syncing.
    Click the drop down arrow at top left the Show menu.
    Then iTunes menu View > Show sidebar.
    Select the iPod then you can select the Summary tab.

  • How to copy objects from Pages (5.5.1) and paste it into Photoshop as a vector smart object with high resolution?

    I recently have bought a new Macbook Pro (Version 10.10.1) with the OS X Yosemite. The computer comes with the new Pages (version 5.5.1).
    Here is the problem: I like to create artwork using the shapes on Pages. Previously, on my old mac, I used Pages 4.3 to create objects, which I would copy then paste to Photoshop and it would become a vector smart object. However, in the new Pages (version 5.5.1), when I copy objects, they would appear on Photoshop as instead, a layer and it would not be in full resolution.
    Also, I know there is nothing wrong with the Pages file itself because I have converted the document to PDF form and it is high resolution when inserted into Photoshop that way.
    Does anyone know how I can copy individual objects from Pages (5.5.1) and paste it into Photoshop as a vector smart object with high resolution as I have done before?
    Thanks!

    copy the image and have it in a high-quality PNG format that does not include the background from the Pages document.
    Oh, well if you don't actually need vector objects then it looks like this is possible. As I said earlier, Pages is putting a PNG on the clipboard. I tested it and it does paste into Photoshop as a transparent layer, because I can see the transparent background of the pasted PNG graphic if I either turn off all layers behind it in Photoshop, or if I start a new Photoshop document to paste into but make sure I choose Transparent for the Background Contents in the New Document dialog.

  • When I copy an email message and paste it into a document, the font turns into all symbols.  What's the problem here?

    When I copy an email message and paste it into a document, the font becomes all symbols. What is wrong?

    To use images from the media browser, you must generate previews of the images first. It sounds like the "automatically generate previews for every new project" is turned off under Aperture >Preferences>Previews. To generate a preview for a photo to use in the media browser, right click it and select "update preview". The quality of the preview photo is determined by the settings in the Previews tab found under the Aperture>Preferences menu.

    You will need to find a forum for MS Word since that is the software that you are trying to manipulate in this.  If you think the processing/creation of the PDF plays a role then you should ask in the forum for the software that you are using to create the PDF.
    This forum is for issue regarding downloading and installing Adobe trial products, so in any circumstance, your issue does not fit in this forum.

  • How can FMS create a text file and write data into it in the Server application folders?

    Recently, I writed a programe about creating a text file and writing data into it in the server application folder. My code is as following:
               var fileObj = new File("/MyApp/test.txt");
               if( fileObj !=  null)
                      if(fileObj.open( "text", "append"))
                            fileObj.write( "                                                      ———— Chat Info Backup ————\r\n" );
                            fileObj.close( );
                            trace("Chat info backup document :" +  fileObj.name + " has been created successfully!");    
    But when I run it, FMS throw the error as following: File operation open failed  ;  TypeError: fileObj has no properties.
    Can you help me ? Thanks in advance.
    Supplement: The text file named test.txt doesn't exist before create the fileObj, an instance of File Class.

    Is MyApp the name of the application directory, or is it a child of the application directory? If myApp is the app name, just use test.txt as the path flag in the file constructor.

  • Is there a way to copy/paste text in Photoshop without keeping formatting?

  • I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field(prefix only) while saving files.

    OS: WinXP sp3
    FF: 3.6.3
    I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field (prefix only) while saving files. example: File name is Pic123.jpg and I want to rename it ABC123.jpg and I have ABC loaded into the WinXPsp3 clipboard. When I highlight\right-click\delete "Pic" then attempt to paste the ABC, I get either no reaction, or upon multiple paste attempts, the ABC is appended to the end of the file, after the extension, as "Pic123.jpgABC". If I delete this unwanted suffix, or repeat the process several times, eventually I can delete the unwanted portion of the prefix and paste the desired text. Sometimes it works fine first try, but mostly it takes several tries. I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 but the problem existed in whatever previous version I had too. This issue only occurs when using the delete/paste; I can always manually change the name by typing. Thank you for your help.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
