I'm unable to copy text out of an ADE book.

Recently bought a new Windows PC and transferred all files to it from my old one. Installed ADE successfully, gave it my authorization ID and all is well. I'm able to open the book I'm interested in and browse all through it. But I'm unable to copy text out of it. I highlight the text in the book and when I either right-click or pull down the Edit menu, the Copy function is grayed out and clicking on it does nothing. Ctrl-C also doesn't do anything. This worked on my old PC. What's up here? Thanks for any help. Jim

I am having the same exact problem.

Unable to copy text from Word (for Mac) into Safari

Thanks and regards

Copy cannot be disabled to my knowledge. Did you try quitting Safari and resetting your iPad? To quit an app double click the Home button to reveal the row of recently used apps. Flick up on the page preview and it will fly away and disappear. That quits the app. Then Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

Can't Select or Copy Text or Data from Address Book Contact Card w/out Edit

Is it something I am doing wrong or did someone at Apple have the weird idea to make it impossible to select/copy text in a contact card in Address Book?
Can you drag/select/copy a URL in a contact card in Address Book, e.g. if you had to paste it into another program or even a different contact card? Thanks.

that would be the latter although i suspect it's a bug. it is now also impossible to select all in an address card to quickly copy and paste into a text document. you have to do it one field at a time and it doesn't seem to work with URL at all.

Unable to send text out

Ever since I updated my phone with iOS 7.0.2 my text are not sending out.

I just got off the phone with tech support and there was a texting block on one of my lines. They were unable to tell me who or why or how the block was placed on the line. I'm very confused but things seem to be working.
Cheers,

Unable to copy text from PDF in Safari

Where did the Copy command ability go when viewing a PDF in Safari? In a recent Safari update, the functionality has disaapeared. Prefer not to take the extra step to Save As, then open in Preview or Adobe Reader just to copy a word or line of text. Suggestions please.

Disregard question, found it. Right click, or Ctrl+click to use submenu to Copy.

Copy text out of multiple word documents

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if it is at all possible to copy ALL the text from multiple word documents and place it into one. So basically bringing 6+ documents into 1.
I've done some google searches and have come a cross this:
New-Object -comobject Word.Application
But not sure if I can do what I want it to do. Any help/links would be a massive help.
Cheers

Segmentation faulting when copying text from various programs.

Greetings, I have had this issue ongoing for months now. I have done several re-installs and the problems will eventually come pack. Now I am not ruling out hardware as I am RMAing the motherboard as that is the only thing left remaining. This is my work PC and I get the errors below when I copy text out of Evolution, Pluma and Remmina are the primary offenders. But I get core dumps or unrecoverable hard locks also from Firefox, Chrome, when I try to change themes or click modify settings in Virtualbox when a VM is running. Below is a small snippet from journalctl.
Jan 20 16:54:16 rocker /etc/gdm/Xsession[892]: (evolution:1257): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion 'G_IS_...failed
Jan 20 16:54:16 rocker kernel: evolution[1257]: segfault at 18 ip 00007f31ad554340 sp 00007fffbf0c65b8 error 4 in libgdk...+ab000]
(remmina:1672): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

Jan 20 16:55:46 rocker systemd-coredump[3934]: Process 1672 (remmina) dumped core.
The problem in Evolution, Pluma and Remmina I can recreate on demand to always give the error above. The others I have to switch to another virtual terminal and reboot. I have done several fresh installs. Now my PC at home is the exact same hardware minus the motherboard. I can pull my drives from this PC and move it to my home PC and the problem does not carry. I can even move all my hardware (yes everything) minus the motherboard and the problem still does not carry over. So more than likely the problem, if it is hardware, is the motherboard.
I have not updated in the past 15 days as updating any package does not fix the issue nor does re-installing the packages the error points to. I run Mate as a desktop environment currently, with GDM as my greeter. In case this is not hardware I am posting this to any open suggestions. I can obtain more logs if requested or provide the hardware specs if that will help. Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions. If this is posted in the wrong area also please let me know.

Thank you for the reply.
I have run RAM test inside this machine and the same RAM in my home machine on various occasions. No errors. I ran them 1 at time and all together. But as a test I also but that RAM in my home machine and the issue did not repeat. Meaning I actually swapped all my hardware(processor, RAM, hard drives and cabling). Now I only ran it for a day. But I can easily on the work machine make the error happen on demand.

Unable to copy and paste code or text in the post

If i add a html code windows , i am able to paste the code and text. can anyone pls confirm why they have removed copy-paste operations from the normal window

Did you try to paste by right-clicking or by typing Ctrl + V ?
Sometimes the former doesn't work but the latter works. -- My own experience.

I am unable to copy and paste text from mozilla, clipboard error

Hi-
It seems I am suddenly unable to copy and paste anything from mozilla into other text editors (word, wordpad, notepad).
I am unable to use ctrl c or v, when trying to do Edit-copy or paste it seems as though nothing is "recognized" by Mozilla.
I'm using a netbook running Win7.
In an effort to fix this problem I restarted firefox, started in safe mode, disabled all plugins, returned to default settings, and have done basically everything except for uninstalling and reinstalling.
Are there suggestions? I looked in older posts, but I also do not have the pushow.dll(or something like it) or the new.net(or comparable) malware so I cant get rid of that either.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Firefox button > Web Developer > Error Console or {Ctrl + Shft + J} from the keyboard
Do you have any messages relating specifically to that error? <br />
You can right-click a message and use Copy to get that message into the clipboard - and then Paste it here. (If that works.)
Beyond that, try a new Profile (don't Delete your current Profile). <br />

Why do italics drop out when I copy text to Thunderbird messages?

Whenever I copy text to or from Thunderbird, attributes such as boldface and italics usually (but perhaps not always) drop out. I can always italicize text when It's in a message. What must I do to make copying already italicized text possible?

Unable to copy & paste text in Godaddy email

I've don't use Safari, but wasn't able to recreate the issue just now. But in Firefox, my primary browser, this has become a major issue over the last few months with using Godaddy webmail. It wasn't as noticeable an issue at first, but now it's with every email. I've also deleted all cookies and cache files in my history.
I frequently use templates to compose new emails to clients. If I try to copy text from a template to paste into an email, none or only part of the text will actually paste. If I try to paste the text again, the same thing happens.
Sometimes, if I try to paste text, a big white space will appear with only part of the text. Other times the text will copy in a completely random spot in the email, such as the very top or bottom.
I've found that there are sometimes dead zones in the Compose Email window, and if I can space far enough away from that a bad spot, it'll then allow ALL the text I've copied to be pasted correctly. I will then try and delete all the extra space. Sometimes this works, other times it will then also delete the pasted text. This then seems to be some kind of formatting issue, but the Goddady Browser Tool says that there aren't any compatibility issues with the Firefox.
This process is now doubling and tripling the time it takes to compose emails that I already have templates created for. Please help!!

I've tried that also (that's mainly how I cut and paste), and it still happens. When I called godaddy and explained that it looked like a formatting issue, the rep said he'd never heard of this being an issue on their end.
I then read online that others had similar issues using godaddy webmail with firefox.
I've switched to safari for now, but I'd love to still be able to email from firefox.

Problem copying text into InDesign

First, let me start by apologizing for my complete lack of knowledge about anything InDesign. I am supporting users that use InDesign, not a user myself.
One of my users came to me with a problem that his team is having. They are coping text out of different files (Docs, Quark, PDFs, etc.) and pasting into InDesign. The text that they are coping is in different languages(Russian, Spanish, German, etc.) When they create a new InDesign file, they will successfully copy text from the first file into the InDesign file. But when they try to copy text from a different file (same language, and even same file type), the font will become garbled. I have attached a screenshot of this issue. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I can not find anything about this on Google or with these forums(probably don't know what to search for).

John,
Thanks for trying to help on this. We had to break down and call Adobe support for a resolution as it was causing a work stoppage.
We were able to solve this problem by contacting Adobe support. The problem was a 3rd party font that was in some of the documents. InDesign did not know how to translate this font into a standard windows font. As long as the original documents were in a standard Windows font, they could be changed to other Windows fonts. But if the document was in the 3rd party font, then it would be unable to change once it was in InDesign. And if the text was copied into the InDesign document with a standard Windows font, then you would be unable to change it to the 3rd party language font.
Thanks again John for trying to assist with this.

Indesign CS4 freezes when copying text to Word 2007

I have a user that copies text from Indesign CS4 to Word 2007 documents. She has Word 2007 open, then opens an InDesign file and copies the text. She then clicks on the Word document and pastes the copied text.
She is unable to go back to the Indesign file. Clicking on InDesign on the toolbar does not activate the InDesign window. The only open she has is to right-click and close InDesign.
She has been doing this without any problems until approximately three weeks ago.
Is this a known problem? What is causing the conflict?

The OS is XP SP3. We are using Adobe Type Manager with Adobe fonts. The only other application running was Outlook 2007.
The user is out today but I will check if Alt Tab will cycle back.

Can't Copy text unless console is opened before applet with JTextField

If an applet uses JTextFields, it is impossible to copy text from the console to the clipboard (or anywhere else) if the console is opened after the applet.
See http://demo.capmon.dk/~pvm/nocopy/nocopy.html for a working applet with source and class file to try it out on...
So if something bad has happened, and there are hints in the console e.g. a stack trace, it all has to be retyped by hand, since all Copy or export is impossible...
Does anyone know of a workaround for this? I'd like to be able to e.g. copy stack traces to bug reports.
Try these test cases:
* Close all browser windows. Open a browser and visit this page. After the page with this applet has loaded, then open the console with "Tools/Sun Java Console" (or "Tools/Web Development/Java Console" in Mozilla). Select some text in the console. There is no way to put this text on the clipboard; the "Copy" button doesn't work, and neither does CTRL+Insert, CTRL+C or anything else.
* Close all browser windows. Open a browser window no some non-java page and then open the console with "Tools/Sun Java Console" (or "Tools/Web Development/Java Console" in Mozilla). Then visit this page. Select some text in the console. Now the "Copy" button does work, enabling "export" of e.g. stack traces to other applicaitons e.g. email.
The difference is which is opened first: The console or the applet. If you look at the very rudimentary Java source code, it is the mere creation of a JTextField is what disables or breaks the Copy functionality.
I've tried this on Windows XP with IE 6.0 and Mozilla 1.3 and they behave exactly the same. The JVM is Sun's 1.4.2 and I've tried 1.4.1_02 also with the same behavior. I've also tried javac from both 1.4.2 and 1.4.1_01

hey .. this seems like a bug.. can you please file a bug at

thanks...
