Note copied and pasted itself from Iphone 5 to Mac Book Pro

Hi there,
OK, I have the most strangest event to report am really freaking out as Im not too sure of how it was possible but I am sure that there is someone out there who may! I will outline below exactly the circumstances in which this bizarre occurred:
1. Turned on Mac Book Pro (OS X 10.6.8)
2. Opened my VNC remote viewer to remote connect to my Windows 7 PC
3. Connected with my computer and opened an MS Word 2007 document
4. Selected and copied the text in this document
5. On my visible MAC tool bar I opened "Text Edit"
6. Then hit cmd+v to paste the text from this document from the Windows PC to the Mac text edit document
This is when I got a little disturbed - I will be as thorrough as possible:
The paste function worked as per normal in the fact that some text did appear in my text edit document but it was not the text sourced from the word document is was something completely different - In fact the text startlingly was originally from a text message I sent over 10 days ago on my iphone 5. I am more than baffled how this text has managed to mysteriously appear from my "Un-connected" Iphone 5 to a text document on my Mac Book!?!?!? It is beyond freaking me out until................I just happened to open my "notes" app on my Iphone and the first thing I saw was an old note i created that was infact this text that appeared on my Mac!
"A little background history on where the text came from: I had a text message exchange/conversation with someone I then wanted to send this complete exchange to someone else via text message but so it read all in one long complete unbroken message I individually copied each text exchange and pasted in sequentially into the note document until I had the whole conversation in there then copied the entire Note document and pasted it into messages and then text it to someone"
OK, so I think that this may now be something un-supernatural however, I need to determine exactly how this procedure occurred! I am still utterly baffled as:
1. I did not connect or even touch my notes app that day on my iphone and actually have not touched it since I created that note over 10 days ago
2. Checked my icloud settings on my Iphone and can see I have not got notes selected/activated
I hope I have not missed anything out but if anyone has any intelligent respones that may solve this mystery I was be extremely grateful.
Many thanks.

  • Copy and paste text from Word for Mac to Mail exasperating!

    I'm so exasperated!! I would be grateful for some help.  I have a carefully worded template letter in Word for Mac.  I copied and pasted it into Mail and loads of extra lines are put in that I cannot delete! So I painstakingly copy and paste each line.  I still have to faff about deleting extra lines that magically appear, then press shift+enter to go to next line without having a line space.  It has messed up font size as well.  Surely it should be straightforward to copy and paste simple text from one program to another!  Is there something I should know or do I just have to type everything out afresh each time - ridiculous in this so called easy technology that saves work ha ha.

  • Photos from iPhone to Mac Book pro

    I want to copy photos from my i phone 4 to a new Mac Book pro but the Mac only sees the latest picture folder on the i phone and has a 12 month window. I cannot find a way to get the older folders. Have tried i photo and capture. Any suggestions please?

    Check out my iPhoneToMac Photo app. It transfers Camera Roll photos to your Mac over WiFi (no cable required!). There's a free trial version available to give you the opportunity to try it out.

  • Removing pictures and music files from my old Mac Book Pro

    Hi I hope someone out there can help me with this question,
    I have an older MacBook Pro with IOS 10.9.2 Mavericks I want to remove all my pictures, music and documents and put them on discs since my new MacBook Pro with Retina Display does not have a HDD and only has 125GB drive. How can I safely remove all my items unti a disc.

    I'm not sure I understand the problem.
    You need an external drive. You can store your documents on there, and then wipe the disk of the old MBP.
    You can then access the documents on the new MBP from the external drive.
    One other thing: you do already have a backup, don't you? A backup should be on a separate physical device from any other copy of your files. Make sure you have two copies of your files before deleting the originals on the old MBP.

  • Pictures from iphone to mac book pro

    How do I transfer pictures taken on Iphone 4 by syncing the phone or any other way? I want to place pics on my iphone4 to my mac, when i sync i only see choices for computer to phone, not phone to computer.
    Any help please, thanks,
    Tommy

    You can use Image Capture, which is an application included with OS X, to transfer the photos off the phone to the Mac.

  • Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location.

    Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately and only if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location. A few of these images had copies in another folder that remained and the ones I couldn't find may or may not have ever had copies. I had backed up my system with time machine recently as well, so I went into the backup to retreive the lost images. When I searched and found the backup copies I got the error "the file alias cannot be opened because the original cannot be located". The crazy thing is that the images that remained on my computer did not give me the same error and opened like they should.
    In short images that I am creating, saving, and using are disapearing so epically that even time machine versions are affected when retrieval is attempted. Any suggestions as to what I could be doing wrong without realizing it? Or perhaps other people have had similar bugs that are software related and have a solution?

    Hi Kevin,
    I understand what you tried to do but it doesn't work that way. Swapping drive names will just mess things up.
    You should be able to reconnect the files though: in the Locate Referenced Files dialog make sure you click the Show Reconnect Options button — this will give you access to all the connected drives. Locate one of the files and hit Reconnect All. Should do the trick.
    Best

  • Why I am not able to copy and paste photos from my desktop to my Itouch?

    I am not able to copy and paste photos from my computer to my Itouch. I use to be able to do it. Now there is an error message that says my device is wither disconnected or stopped responding.
    But when I plugged in the Itouch, it still shows on my computer, still able to see my existing pictures in it. Just not able to paste/drag any new pictures into the folder.
    Anyone has this problem and able to solve it?
    Thank you.

    Hi BobRz
    Thanks for you suggestion but it didn't work - are there other ways for solving this problem? Or is it because my files that I want to copy and paste onto my hard disk etc are too big? (However there is space on my hard disk and it works on a PC)

  • I cannot copy and paste details from my bank statement into a word document, without the formatting changing.I have a message in my Error console which reads: server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555

    Since transferring data from my desktop to my laptop, i am now having problems copying and pasting details from my bank website in to a word document, the formatting is all over the place. This didnt happen before, when i pasted the details in to the word document the formatting was exactly the same as on the webpage. If I use internet explorer, I dont have this problem, so, I can only assume it has something to do with Firefox. I have checked the "Error console" and I am receiving this message: server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555.

    Maybe:<br />

    You will be able to do copy & paste when 3.0 comes out this summer.

    No. You would make changes to the address book on your PC and then sync via iTunes.

  • I have an iPhone 4s, and I cannot copy and paste text from facebook.

    I have an iPhone 4s, and I cannot copy and paste text from facebook. I opened Safari and tapped/held the text I wanted to copy, but nothing happened. I have tried everything, and I am getting frustrated.

    Are the use the correct email address for the contact? Those are listed in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive. When Messaging somene the iOS devices used the email address (or phone number if applicable) listed in the Contact app for that person.
    Thus, it appears the you Contact apps only has that one email address listed for the person you are trying to Message.
    If he can send you a Messages can you reply to it? If so save the sender to your Contact app.

    Hi, Jrpaige7. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    You can still copy and paste material from various applications in iOS 7.  Here are the steps on how to process these steps.

    If you are experiencing issues with this functionality, I would recommend closing multitasking and power cycling the device.

  • Select, Copy and Paste text - the iPhone can't do that either???

    Select, Copy and Paste text - the iPhone can't do that either??? OK, this is pretty lame...the iPhone does not allow you to select, copy or paste text in SMS, Notes, Safari or Mail. Is this just a oversight on the part of Apple?

    Apple left out a LOT of basic functionality from the iPhone. I think they believe that the 'sexiness factor' will far outweigh the need for functionality in getting this phone to sell. For the most part they were right. Now that most of us have realized what this phone cannot do, and that the honeymoon is over (well, for the most part) I hope that Apple will do include some of that basic functionality in future updates. I also hope that the 3G phone is not the answer to this because that will leave out a lot of users who want these basic features but who dont really want 3G.
