I have just uploaded Firefox. How do I cut and paste from text on a web page?

If I visit a site I often need to copy a section of text - but I don't see the icon on your toolbar.

You may use keyboard shortcuts, which in windows are '''Ctlr + C''' then '''Ctrl +V''' the shortcuts will usually work in pages seen in Firefox, and often on other pages also.
If you wish you may customise/customize the toolbar to add specific items, right click any blank area on a toolbar and choose the customise option, then drag the items off the dialogue Window to the required position.

    How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

    You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

  • How do you cut and paste text from Adobe Reader 11 into Word?

    Using Windows 8.1.  Recently purchased Adobe Reader 11.  Need to cut and paste text from PDF into Word docs.  Docs are not locked and content should be available for editing.  Have figured out how to highlight the text through the Comment tools, but nothing (right-clicking, going to Edit pulldown) menu gives me a Copy option.  How do I cut and paste the text?

    Good to know that I got what I paid for with the Export PDF.I just went
    into the document that I am trying to cut and paste from and highlighted a
    piece of text.  Clicked right, checked the Edit pulldown, and then did
    Ctrl+C (assuming you meant Ctrl and then C, rather than holding them both
    down together).  Still no Copy option anywhere.
    Properties for the document I am trying to work with do say "Content
    Copying: Allowed" under Security. Since I can highlight text, I assumed
    that the text is there (not a photo scan) so that I can copy it.  Should I
    look somewhere else under properties to confirm this?
    As I did last night, I also opened up a document that I have cut and pasted
    extensively from before-so I know the text is there and manipulable.
    Attempted to cut and paste from it, using the same methods above.  Again,
    no option to copy with any of them.
    Perhaps I should clarify that by cut-and-paste, I do mean that I want to
    copy the text from the original and then transfer it to a Word doc that I
    am writing.  I am not trying to do anything with the original other than
    copy from it--not cutting anything out of the document itself.
    Is there a way to do this with the Adobe 11 reader.  At this point, I am
    wondering if I need to uninstall Adobe 11 and try to go back to Adobe 10 or
    whatever the reader was that was installed on my computer when I bought it
    (Dell Inspiron touch-screen laptop purchased in May 2013, if that gives any
    idea of which reader might have been installed there.  That version did,
    however, have some other limitations that made me want to get Adobe 11. Any
    ideas about what to do now.

    Highlight the item.
    Finder>Edit>Copy
    Place the item where you want to
    Finder>Edit>Paste
    There is 3rd party software that makes cut & paste easier with just 1 or 2 steps. 
    Q2 how do I correct a spelling error when it has a red line under it?
    You can find the correct spelling in the Apple dictionary.  Just add the correct spelling & delete the error.
    Care to share which OS you are using and which model iMac you have? 

  • How do I cut and paste an appointment and change the appointment date?

    I have just moved to the Iphone 3GS after many years on Windows Mobiles so it's all new to me, but how do I cut and paste appointment information?
    I also need to be able to change the date of an appointment, but could not figure out how.
    Thx
    Bryce

    That's fine for changing an appointment date, but is there a way to "copy" an appointment and paste it into a new date so that the date of the original appointment isn't lost?
    For example, I have an appointment that occurs every 4-5 weeks, and we set the future date at our meetings, but I need to be able to go back and review earlier when earlier meeting dates took place to be able to track milestones. If I simply change the current appointment date I'll lose that history.
    In Outlook I can simply copy and paste an appointment into a new date, but I'd like to be able to do so from my phone for when I'm not in my office. How can I do this?

    If you refer to this

    At a first glance, their website is optimized for Windows only, it displays badly in Safari, perhaps it would be better in Firefox or other browser.

  • With PS 7  create new  Place two objects on the new file  then you may cut copy and paste Cs2  create new  place two object on the new file Cut is not available how does one cut and paste in new file

    With PS 7
    create new
    Place two objects on the new file
    then you may cut copy and paste
    Cs2
    create new
    place two object on the new file
    Cut is not available how does one cut and paste in new file

    If your using File>Place then photoshop cs2 creates what's known as Smart Objects, which photoshop 7 didn't have.
    In photoshop cs2 you can rasterize the smart objects and that should make the Cut function available.
    Select both placed layers, right click on the area to the right of the tumbnail and select Rasterize Layers.
    If in photoshop cs2 you to Help>Photoshop Help and look under Layers>Smart Objects, that should give you a good overview of what smart objects are.

  • How do I cut and paste?  I want to change the background around a Christmas tree

    How do I cut and paste in Elements 10.  I want to change the background around a Christmas tree.

    One way would be to open the background image, then go to File<Place and select your christmas tree image.
    Now you have two layers.
    Make a selection of the christmas tree with the Quick Selection Tool and then add a layer mask.
    Now you can see the background around the tree.
    Of course your selection may still need some tweaking, so you could paint on the layer mask to further refine the selection.
    What version of photoshop elements?
    example before: (didn't have a chritmas tree image handy)

  • How do I cut and paste sets of lines for use in various Math questions?

    How do I cut and paste sets of lines for use in various Math questions?

    Thank you for your reply. My problem is much simpler than you are thinking. As a teacher I prepare sheets with random number generators.
    EG. 256 + 389= ______    or         467
                                                 -  384
           469 + 753= ______     
    or  5)750
    On a PC I was able to start a page of A4 with one set and then drag and drop down and across the page.
    On my Macbook I can get the numbers in but the lines do not copy. I asked at one of my One to One sessions and it had my 'trainer' stumped. He said he would make enquiries but so far no news. I am using Numbers.
    I hope I have explained my 'problem' satisfactorily.

  • How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another page or file - on the same screen?

    How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another - on the same screen?

      Open both of your images in the Editor. Click on the image you want to copy and press Ctrtl+A (select all) followed by Ctrl+C (copy) then click the tab for your other image and press Ctrl+V (paste)
    Alternatively click on your background image then simply drag the second image from the photo/project bin and drop it into the main editor workspace on top of the background image. Use the move tool to position and the corner handles of the bounding box to scale.

  • How do I cut and past on my macbook pro?

    How do I cut and past on my MACBOOK PRO?

    You can use the hotkeys, as Steve said. It sort of sounds as if you can't right click though.
    If you're using the touchpad, go into system preferences>trackpad, enable "secondary click, tap with 2 fingers". Then, when you click/tap the touchpad with 2 fingers instead of one, it'll right click, giving you the option to copy/paste whatever you highlighted.
