On the "old" Firefox I could copy a section of a web page and tranfer it elsewhere. The new Firefox has an edit option but it always greyed out and unusable. Why can't Icopy a part of a web page??

I try to copy a UPS shipping tracking ID code so I can transfer it to the UPS tracking web site--but the edit option on the Firefox is always greyed out and will not respond when selected--doesn't work. Therefore I have to copy the code on a piece of paper and then go to the UPS web site and type in the code. It was a lot easier when I could copy the code and transfer it to the UPS page>

That Edit menu in the Firefox menu button should have three icons (Cut, Copy, Paste) that are enabled if there is text selected or something is on the clipboard. The arrow at the right of the Edit item will open the Edit menu.
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

  • I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.

    I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.  I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added.  So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them?  It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

  • After ios 5 the ipod that changed to music shows all my songs but they are greyed out and will not play

    after ios 5 the ipod that changed to music shows all my songs but they are greyed out and will not play

    did uncheck all music and resynced afterwards. Got all my music back on the phone. Next morning, the phone had greyed out 1/3 of the songs all by itself. Seems to have something to do with syncing over wifi. No solution yet other than resyncing all my playlists one by one,
    Combined with a battery that drained 5% every 5 minute before I reset the network settings, I am not impressed with Apple's premature launch of their new os. This is what beta testing is for, folks. The iPhone should be done with the growing pains. Shame.

  • Trying to copy across my iTunes library to my newly wiped MacBook but all songs greyed out and iTunes folder now 0bytes...

    I'm worried I have copied the files from the MacBook before wiping incorrectly! Can anyone please advise?

    I use an older operating system version and do not fully understand the view you have.  It doesn't look like a standard iTunes folders structure to me:
    What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management
    What are all those iTunes files? - http://www.macworld.com/article/139974/2009/04/itunes_files.html
    Where are my iTunes files located? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391

    If you do have a complete library set as per all the links I provided above, here's how you move it:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.
    If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music  then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there.  (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

  • TS1574 Hi, I dont have sound on my imac. The options in sound are greyed out and there is nothing in the output list

    itunes and you tube are not working.  There is no sound. When I am in itunes and play a song, the song does not start.
    I checked system preferences, sound.  There is no output options and the input options are greyed out.
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Go step by step and test.
    1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
        Highlight  Internal Speakers.
        Make sure that Mute is not enabled.
    2.Plug in and  remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    3. Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    5. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
        Audio Devices window
        Side Bar
        Click the Built-in Output.
        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.

  • HT1176 I am trying to add my iPhoto library to files to be backed up on time machine. I am told to click on the Options Minus butto, but it is greyed out. What is the solution ?

    I have been trying to add my iPhoto Library to files for time machine backup.
    I was instructed to click on the Options minus button - but it is greyed out and not functional. 
    What is the solution ?
    Your help will be much appreciated.
    Thank you.
    Roberto Kay 

    You can "see" the iPhoto library in Time Machine backups, but you cannot "open" the library or "browse" the contents while you are in Time Machine.
    Apple makes you restore the entire iPhoto library to another destination...like your desktop....if you want to retrieve a few older images that you may have deleted by mistake.
    This is a convoluted mess, but unfortunately, that is the way it is.
    See Pondini's excellent, detailed information on this:
    http://pondini.org/TM/15.html
    You might also want to post in the iPhoto support area to see if the experts over there might have a workaround for you. I cannot find one, but I'm not an iPhoto expert.

  • In the old Numbers I could change the colour of a checkbox using rules - I cannot seem to do this in new Numbers 2013?

    In the old Numbers I could change the colour of a checkbox using rules - I cannot seem to do this in new Numbers 2013?
    I have an old Numbers sheet where I could make the checkbox Cell go Green when ticking "Equal to" TRUE. When I open the old sheet it into new iWork it functions correctly. But I am unable to copy or paste the rule - nor recreate it.
    Any suggestions on how to create a Conditional checkbox cell that goes green once ticked would be most apprecicated.
    Thanks - Steve

    Numbers 3.0 is missing the logic-based "equal to TRUE" or "equal to FALSE" conditions for conditional formatting.  The replacement is text based: "text is TRUE" or "text is FALSE".  You can apply these rules to cells formatted as checkboxes.

  • FTP help! - "skipped because the old remote file could not be deleted."

    I have been using Dreamweaver to administer a dedicated
    server for a large client running 6 copies of Contribute and an ASP
    CMS on the same server. For some reason, out of the blue with no
    changes on the server side or on my side, Dreamweaver refused to
    put files (any type of file) to the server. Permissions haven't
    changed on the box, all is as it was. Here's a copy of the end of
    the FTP Log. The file default_new.asp that it refers to has never
    existed on the server before now, but the same is happening for all
    files (pre-existing or otherwise). Any help would be appreciated...
    < drwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 0 May 26 2005 YPM
    < -rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 22206 May 29 16:08 ypm.html
    < -rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 1939 Sep 17 2004 YPM-home.htm
    < 226 Transfer complete.
    The file "default_new.asp" was skipped because the old remote
    file could not be deleted.

    Apparently you get this because the remote disk you are
    trying to write to is full. Try deleting some files on the server
    and do it again. Otherwise, if it's a hosted account, contact your
    host and ask them to check available disk space on your server.
    This was exactly my problem. Logged on to the remote machine
    using RDC and cleaned out some of the clients archive files.

  • How can I see the old backups of my previous Macbook done by Time machine in a Time capsule with my new iMac?

    How can I see the old backups of my previous Macbook done by Time machine in a Time capsule with my new iMac? I've changed from a Macbook to a iMac because that one stopped working and I cannot use it anymore. I've been able to import all the data of the last backup of the Macbook when setting the new iMac, but I cannot access now to the old backups of the Macbook and there are information that wasn't in the last backup and I would like to recover. Thank you very much.

  • I had changed my Apple ID on my PC and realized iCloud. On my iphone  iCloud account is on the old ID. Could not find where to change it.   In Settings-iTunes

    I had changed my Apple ID on my PC and realized iCloud. On my iphone  iCloud account is on the old ID. Could not find where to change it.  In Settings-iTunes & App Stores – I had replaced the old ID with the new one. On my iPad 2 – iCloud account is on old ID, I cannot change it, 
    do i have to delete iCloud accounts and re=build them ?

    Yes, you got it. there is no way to change - just delete. Usually there is no loss, but photostream is reset, so make sure to back up your pictures before you do.

  • Error message: file was skipped because the old remote file could not be deleted.. Later it will up

    Error message: file was skipped because the old remote file could not be deleted.. Later it will upload after i try a few more times. Not at my size quota for website (I have lots of room) , have toggled Passive FTP ...keeps happening. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks! I am using DW CS5 on Windows 7 platform. This does not happen when I upload otherwise on my computer - only when using DW.
    It also only happens with the html files - it does not happen with my jpeg files

    Do you have notes in your site?  DW's local and remote site synching might be off.   Try clearing your cache.

I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
