Parts of the edit menu are not functioning: copy, paste, redo, cut, delete

How can I restore copy, paste, redo, cut, delete on my menu toolbar?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • HT3149 iPhoto 09 When I click on the preview pane to move a photo into edit, it shows up black and the edit buttons are not active.  How do I fix that?

    When I click on the preview pane to move a photo into the edit pane, there is no image just a black square and the edit buttons are not active. A few images in an event will move to the edit pane but most will not.  I cannot work with those images that do not enter the edit pane..no attaching to email, make a card, slideshow, etc.

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.

    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:

  • The "FIND" feature in the Edit menu does not work. I can't find anything on a webpage

    The "FIND" feature in the Edit menu does not work. I cannot search a page. If I am looking for the word "Doctor" and I know it is on the page. All I get after typing the first letter is that the typing box turns red.
    This is not fun.

    Make sure that <b>[] "Match case"</b> on the Find bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check-mark.

  • Can't delete files in iTunes 10.4 (80) OS 10.7 Delete in the edit menu is not hi-lighted?

    Can't delete files in iTunes 10.4 (80) OS 10.7 Delete in the edit menu is not hi-lighted. Any sugestions? I have three Mac's and they all have the same problem.

    Gmatos, when I high-light and drag file from iTunes to my trash the usual promt of "do I want to remove it" followed by by the uual "do I want to keep the file or remove that from my library" comes up too. I click "dont keep file" and it is gone from my itunes and my library an my HD. It's exactly the same as it's always been except annoyingly this is the only way I can do it as the delete button just doesn't work in this latest version.
    Hope this is clearer for you.

  • Hello, how much did you pay when some parts of the keyboard keys are not working properly due to accidental spilt of tea?

    I accidentally spilt a tea on the keyboard of my Macbook Air 11'. I managed to wipe the keyboard and saved my laptop. However, I noticed that the Spacebar, Shift and Command keys are not working as it should be. It's like something's stuck inside that makes these keys hard to press as usual. I refered this problem to Amsys, Berwick St London, as the reservations in Apple Stores are full. Do you have any idea how much is the cost for diagnosis and repair if ever?
    Please help.

    if you spilled a good bit of tea, its a serious problem, yes.
    it got inside, and will corode, and bad things will begin to happen.
    Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
    After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
    The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
    Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
    After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
    There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
    Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
    In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
    In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
    contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.  

  • "Edit Menu in Photoshop" function is not working anymore due to new install of Photoshop.

    I had Photoshop 7.0 installed on my system, and the "Edit Menu in Photoshop" function would bring up Photoshop 7.0, no problem.
    I then installed Photoshop CS3.
    When I pressed the "Edit Menu in Photoshop" button, it would still bring up the old Photoshop 7.0. Then I uninstalled Photoshop 7.0. Now, when I press the button, I get, "Could not edit in Photoshop. Photoshop does not appear to be installed."
    Does anybody know where I can configure Encore (CS3), so that it will recognize Photoshop CS3? If not, what do I need to do to make this work (uninstall and install Encore?)

    Andy,
    I think that Jeff got the problem handled, but this is something that we will all be living with for some time - dead links to FAQ's, other articles and the like. Stanely Jones had done a good job of finding many of the "lost" articles from the previous forum changeover. Don't know if he'll be motivated to do it all over again.
    I would like to think that Adobe has someone working on getting some of the old stuff back, or at least re-linked. Right now, the various search engines still have the old dead links in most of their searches. I guess that it will take the 'bots a while to catch up, if they ever do.
    At least Jeff & Neil have gotten some of the FAQ's back up and working. Good job!

  • 64 bit Ubuntu 10.10 FF 3.6, top menu does NOT function nor does mouse right-click, all other applications O.K.

    Running 64 bit Ubuntu 10.10 upgraded from 10.04
    Running latest 3.x.x Firefox
    On rebooting this morning the top menu does not function at all, nor does mouse right-click.
    Did 'complete removal' in Synaptic and reinstall to no avail.
    Thunderbird and Google Chrome functioning fine.

    Fixed!
    open a new instance of Firefox (ctrl-N). You will notice all is working now. Close the old instance, so whatever Firefox remembers as your last instance is the new, good one. Worked for me. This problem seems to have been around a while already, this fix dates from November 2010...

  • I tried to paste text from another site into my Firebox document, but it says "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". How do I enable clipboard? I never had problems like this on Firefox before...why?

    I tried to paste text I copied from another site into my Notepad++ (as I've always done in the past with no problem).
    But today for the 1st time, I got a message when I tried to paste the text "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". What?
    What happened to the clipboard?

    That's a security feature in Firefox.

    Is there really nobody else with this problem? Really?

  • The u, j, m and 7 keys on the keyboard are not functioning properly on my macbook air. Please Help!

    The u, j, m and 7 keys on the keyboard are not functioning properly on my macbook air. In its place are a random assortment of keys (Ex - u = "eqrw" or "IOUY"). This randomly happened when logging back in after sleep mode. No liquid damage at all. Please help!

    OK, I fixed the problem by doing a SMC (System Management Controller) reset as follows:
    1. Powered off my MacBook and removed everything connected except for the power chord.
    2. When powered off, I held "Shift" + "ctrl" + "Option" + "Power button" for 5 seconds or so until the little light on the front started to blink rapidly.
    3. Powered up my Mac, which took a little longer than usual to start and tested the "missing" keys which now works perfectly again.
    Just added another couple of years usage with my aging mac :-)

  • HT5213 I have two books published to the iBookstore via Blurb. Unfortunately, they just used my first name on the second book. It is like it is by a different author to the first book. -The two books are not linked. Is there anyway I can edit the author's

    Hello. I have just joined this community and would be grateful for advice on editing my name submitted to the iBookstore by Blurb on one of my books. I would like to have both of my books with the same author's name. Is it possible? Thank you.

    Thank you, Tom. I did contact Blurb support back in March and was told the following:
    "We are not able to change the specifications of how Apple Itunes show the author's name on their site.
    Apple always have strict specifications of how they set up the Ebook on their site.
    This issue can only be solved by contacting Apply and they will not change the name of the site".
    I didn't know how or where to contact Apple at that time and gave up. I am resurrecting the issue now as I have seen I have sold some books and would like the people who bought them to learn of my other book.
    I am grateful to both Blurb and Apple for making my books possible, but I would like to fix this issue. I will contact Blurb again.
    Thanks for your support.

  • Acrobat Pro "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file

    I have installed CC but Acrobat Pro gives me headaches.
    The "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file but something I have worked on in the past.
    It forces me to navigates through my hard disk for this very straightforward thing in normal conditions. I precise: Acrobat is the only software reacting like that.
    I use Windows7 professional 64bits.

    I use what seems to be the latest version available on the Cloud:
    To illustrate my point, I open a directory with explorer and double-click on the only PDF in there:
    So here it is, open:
    When I do a "Save as", it takes me to a totally different place on the disk!
    Very annoying...
    Thanks for your time!
