I can't copy to anything to the clipboard
My clipboard just seems to die randomly. I can't nail down when or how. I restart my laptop and it works fine for a while. But later in the day, all of the sudden I can no longer copy anything. I select some text and copy or cmd-C and go somewhere else and paste and it just pastes the last thing I had in the clipboard from earlier in the day.
Also, once I copy something, I can go to the Finder and choose Show Clipboard from the edit menu and it appears blank.
Any ideas?
Unless you can find a way to reproduce the problem at will, it will be almost impossible to track down. There has to be something you can do to make it fail.

Message title says it: Can you copy/paste files from the Finder to Mail in Lion, or drag them onto the Mail icon in the Dock to create a new message and attach the files to it?
I can't find anything in the Knowledge Base that says these two options no longer work or still do.
I do not have a system capable of running Lion, but I need to know the answer nonetheless.Gee, I don't know: "paste attachments mail Lion"? ;-)
One further question, if I may: in Panther (which is where I've aggregated nearly 7 years of mail), if you copy more than one file in the Finder, switch to Mail, and paste the files into a new message, only the file names paste in. If you copy one file and paste it into a Mail message, you get the file, not just the name. Is that still true, or has that (IMHO) bug been fixed since 10.3.9? -
I can't click on anything on the top of my screen.. help!
Hello,
When I first got firefox, it worked great, and i fell in love with it. But recently, something's happened. For some reason, I can't click on anything at the top of my screen. For example, if I go to Facebook, you know how you have to type you email and password in? Well it won't let me click in the bow to type them in. I also can't search google or go on youtube because of this. Please help! I've tried a lot, like downloading the newest version a few days ago, but no luck. I'm not sure what else I can try. Any suggestions or things that may get rid of this problem would be much appreciated.Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

I can no longer see anything in the "Manually Added Songs" field when managing music on my iPhone4. why?
If you are using iTunes Match, your songs are long gone.
iTunes Match is now a streaming service, with no regards to letting you download individual files.
Otherwise, I'm sorry for wasting your time. -

When I connect my ipad to the computer and click import photos and videos, the computer says that there are no photos or videos on the ipad it says the file is empty I can't even add anything to the file!!!!!
It looks like the card may be the problem, and your best bet is to try the Card Reader - this will make the card accessible by the Finder and you may be able to drag the pics off to the desktop or, at worst, try recover the pics with an app like MediaRecover

How can I copy and Paste in the newly converted PDF to WORD?
How can I copy and paste in the newly converted document? I can save it to any Word format and cut within it, but not paste what I just cut or copy and paste.
Try copying all of the content in your Word document to a new document, then see if you can selectively copy and paste.
Let us know if that helps!

CS4: How can I copy named potions of the time line to the projects panel?
I am trying to copy named portion of my time line to the project panel & I can't past the segment.
I copied a large AVI file to the time line, split it up into sections, & am trying to place the individual rename section into the Projects Panel. I can Copy the segment, but when I try to Paste it into the Projects Panel the Paste command is not "lighted up".
How can I copy named potions of the time line to the projects panel?
I found a way albeit a tedious method:
positioned the render bar( I do not know the proper name) to encompass each segment separately.
Exported that segment to Media.
Media in turn transferred the segment to the Media Encoder program.
The Media Encoder, after processing the segments, deposited the files in a temporary folder.
Lastly, imported the content of the folder to the Project Panel,
Thank you for all your suggestions. -
Copying a slide to the clipboard?
I want to copy a Captivate slide to the clipboard so I can
edit it in a graphics program. The documentation first says:
Adobe Captivate provides an easy way to copy a slide to the
clipboard. Then the instructions say:
To copy a slide to the clipboard:
1. Open an Adobe Captivate project in Edit view.
2. Select an image on the slide that you want to copy as a
bitmap.
3. Select Edit > Copy to Clipboard as Bitmap.
4. .....
How do I copy the entire slide to the clipboard as a bitmap
in order to edit it, and not just an image on the slide?
Thanks.Hi there
Yep, you sure can! Insert a Highlight Box object. Configure 0
for the frame width and 0% transparency. Here's where it gets cool.
Click the color chooser, then the eyedropper and lift the color
from the field. (Sometimes these are an odd color, so this helps)
Now size and position the Highlight Box to cover the
information you wish to hide. Once that is done, copy this to the
clipboard. Here's where it gets even cooler! Choose all the
remaining slides where you want to hide the info and paste. Whoosh!
The Highlight Box is pasted in the EXACT location on each slide.
(no futzing with placement!)
Now all you have to do is visit each slide, right-click the
Highlight Box and choose Merge into Background.
This should accomplish what you are doing with editing in a
different application.
Cheers... Rick -
Copy ImageField Images to the clipboard
We've created ImageFields in a pdf to for people to send into us.
However we would like to be able to take those images and copy and paste them into other things. emails for example.
right now the ImageField only lets you click it to add an image. We can't select or right click that image to copy it to the clipboard.
is there a way to setup a button or something that via javascript or some other way allow us to copy that image to the clipboard?Hi,
to copy an image to the clipboard you can use the snapshopt tool from Acrobats or Readers Edit menu.
There is no other way I'm afraid. -
Copy/paste without using the clipboard?
Can this be done without using the clipboard?
myTable.select()
app.copy()
app.select(myCopyFrame.insertionPoints.item(0));
app.paste();Can you please not use that site, or (if you must) at the very least not refer to it in this forum?
Its entire contents is "stolen" -- the guy who made it advertises himself as "proficient XML and HTML programmer", but rather than proving it by doing something worthwhile himself, he copied the entire contents of the heavily improved HTML version I made from Adobe's own documentation. To add insult to injury he wrapped it up in heavily advertised pages.
The help text is Adobe's own, but I vastly improved upon it by adding yet even more hyperlinks, categories, and a graphic hierarchical view. An even better version than the one this ****head stole can be downloaded for free (and without any advertisements) from http://www.jongware.com/idjshelp.html. I made it better just to prove I could; so far this stinking thief didn't dare copy the latest version -- yet. -
