Pasting Text with Keyboard Cue

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but I'll give it a try. When using my PC, I can quickly paste text by pressing a couple keys on my keyboard; I think it's CTRL / V. I discovered that I can't do it with my new Apple/Mac keyboard, and it's really a pain to have to go to the top of the page and push "Paste" every time I want to paste something. Is there a similar cue to paste text on the Apple keyboard?
Thanks.

Apple V to Paste

  • InDesign CS3 crashes when applying styles to pasted text with formatting.

    Running InDesign CS3, v. 5.0.2 on Windows XP, SP2
    InDesign is crashing whenever I do the following:
    1. Paste or place text from Microsoft Word -- with existing formatting preserved.
    2. Apply any character or paragraph style to that text.
    This happens 100% of the time when I try to recreate the error. It happens on more than one computer. It never used to happen in IDCS2. It's not a missing font issue.
    I've tried recreating the InDesign preference files, but it didn't work. (See help file at http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb400616&sliceId=1)
    Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated! This is slowing down my work a ton, and manually adding things like underline is killing me. If it persists, I'll have to roll back to CS2. :(

    We had exactly the same issue - but it only seemed to happen when a "Hyperlink" character style came in with the pasted text. In fact, the crash only happened when we tried to apply a paragraph style to a paragraph that had a hyperlink in it.
    Our solution: before we try to do anything else, we delete the "Hyperlink" character style. I can't guarantee that this will solve your issue, but it has worked for us (so far!) in those rare cases when we cut & paste Word text.
    We have never had this issue when we import ("Place") the Word file - that's generally a better workflow anyway.

  • Copy text with keyboard

    I can paste using the keyboard (cmd-V), but I cannot copy with keyboard, ony through the dropdown menu. What's wrong? How do I fix it?

    yes, I am saying that. cmd-c is not working. cmd-v does work. cmd-x does work.
    when I do cmd-c and then try to paste it I get the last thing I copied with the drop-down menu copy option, or the last thing I ut using cmd-x, not what I w trying to copy and paste. cmd-c has effect.

  • CS3 - pasting text with registration/trademark - not converting in code.

    Hey Gang,
    In my previous versions of DW.
    As I copy and paste content from a PSD or any other document
    into DW design
    view, that has a character such as a Registration symbol,
    Trademark,
    Copyright etc.
    DW would automatically write the proper code in thec ode view
    (such as
    ®).
    That is no longer happening with CS3.
    It is actually placing a small reg, or copywrite symbol into
    the code itself
    (which is not rendering correctly in some browser / email
    client
    environments.
    I can't find a setting to correct this behaviour. Have I
    overlooked a
    preference setting?
    Thanks
    -D

    Hi Dave,
    I was having a hard time with that too, the code kept showing
    up instead of the symbol. Since you're using CS3 if you go to the
    text tab, the very last option on the right has a bunch of
    different options, it has the tm and registration symbol. If that
    doesn't work you could always go into your system tools and
    character map and then copy and paste it into your page, that
    actually worked for me as well, but the first way is better! :)
    Good luck!

  • Feature Request: Support pasting text as a stream of keyboard characters

    Please support pasting text as a stream of keyboard characters from a menu click rather than just relying on the remote server clipboard integration.
    Often I'm in a situation where the remote desktop integration with the clipboard is disabled. E.g. password change screens. I use a local password manager to create and maintain passwords. These are often ridiculously complex to type. Sometimes they need
    to be sent over the wire as characters rather than as a clipboard transfer message. This client doesn't allow this to work and makes it painful to remain secure.
    Please make this less painful.

    Hi Josh,
    Thanks for your feedback. But can you let us know which version of MRD client you are using on which device as to clarify and research more regarding your case.
    Thanks for your understanding and Support!

  • How can I keep my text format after pasting a text with a different format?

    No matter when and where I start to write some text (whether it is a SImpleText, E-Mails, or anyother application's doc), if I have to cut and paste a text from a different source that is formatted differently than my original text (ie. the one I am already using ), once I have pasted the differently formatted text in my doc, the typeset changes while it continues to type with the same formatt used in the text I just pasted.
    How can I continue typing with the same text formatt used before pasting the new text, after pasting the new text, without having to change size, font style etc. Is there a short cut?
    What I have been doing to avoid this problem is: I usually type my entire text content (whether it is an E-Mail, or other doc) then, once I am done typing, I paste the text that was cut from a differently formatted document, so that my text remains with the same formatt in its integrity, while the pasted text stands out differently, but it is a bit complex doing that , because I not only have to remember to paste the other text when I am done typing (I run the risk of forgetting to paste the text I need to insert--which has happened already) or I keep struggling with my formatt change after the pasting of the new text, so my document text starts looking like the same text as the one which was just pasted.
    Thanks for your time reading this!

    (1) First, let's make sure we're talking about the same thing. By "SImpleText, E-Mails" you mean TextEdit and Mail, right?
    (2) Some apps (TextEdit, Mail) use the text engine provided by Mac OS X. By and large, these apps will behave in a similar manner. Others (eg, MS Word) use their own text engine, and their behaviour can be quite different. For such an app you need to consult its manual.
    (3) In TextEdit, if you want the pasted text to adopt the current style, then use kurt188's tip.
    (4) However, if you may want the pasted text to retain its own attributes, while you continue to type in the previous style. I don't know of any shortcut or command that will achieve this. However, you can try to work around it.
    (4.1) TextEdit has the Copy Style (⌘⌥C) and Paste Style (⌘⌥V) commands. If you haven't yet used it, ⌘⌥V will insert the default style. So type, paste, ⌘⌥V, then continue typing. If you have used, it will insert whatever style was copied. You can, type, ⌘V, click somewhere before the pasted text, ⌘⌥C, click after the pasted text, ⌘⌥V, and continue typing.
    (4.2) Alternatively, type your text. Then type one more character, eg, "x". Then ←, ⌘V, ⇧→, and start typing. The new text should adopt "x"'s format. (This should work in Mail, too. I don't know, because IMHO e-mail should always be plain text.)

  • I can't paste text into info boxes anymore with the latest version of itunes

    Ever since I downloaded the latest version of itunes (on Windows 7), I can no longer paste text into the info boxes when I edit song information. I can’t paste by right-clicking or Ctrl+V, this is driving me crazy because I’m trying to add info on a Russian artist with Cyrillic letters and I can’t do it! I didn’t buy the song from itunes so it can’t be issues with Copyrighting although the same thing happens with songs from the store and every other song in my library. I can paste text into the lyrics section but that’s it. I restarted my computer after reinstalling the latest versions of itunes and Firefox today hoping it would fix my problem but it didn’t. Is this happening to anyone else? I hope someone can help me! Oh and it isn’t just with Russian, I tried to paste English info just to see if it was a problem with recognizing Cyrillic and still nothing pastes, the boxes just stay blank.
    Itunes is annoying me more than ever. With the constant updates you’d think they would be able to improve all bugs but once one problem is fixed another occurs and it’s so irritating because I couldn’t care less about how my library looks as long as everything is organized in a simple way and I can sync my ipod without spending forever on itunes re-editing stuff and readjusting to updated layout changes. Apple’s attempts at making things look “cool” isn’t worth the F-ing constant problems which matter more! Okay, rant over

    That would be Manually manage, not Manually syncing.
    Click the drop down arrow at top left the Show menu.
    Then iTunes menu View > Show sidebar.
    Select the iPod then you can select the Summary tab.

    Copy&paste is a function of your browser, not the forum software. Ctrl+V will work just fine.

  • Copy paste text from pdf exported from Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer control with Czech specific characters produced box charactex or ?.

    Used Visual studio 2012. In our project there is used the Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer control. In the report handled by the control are TextBoxs with a text with Czech specific characters e.g. (ř, ě, ...) . When exporting the report to pdf,
    characters are displayed correctly. However when the text with czech characters in the pdf if copied and  placed into the seach box in the pdf document only box characters are displayed. The TextBox in the report use the default font Arial. When the report
    is exported to Word, and then the Word document is saved as a pdf document, its ok. Coping a text with Czech charactes in the result pdf document and pasting into the search box displays again Czech characters not box characters.
    Also when in the report handled by the ReportViewer control are several Tex Boxes and some of the boxes contains Czech characters and some not, after exporting to a pdf document there is problem with text selection. When in the pdf document I'm trying to
    select several paragraphs, some with Czech characters and some without them, selection behaves strangely and jumps from one paragraph to another unexpectedly.

    Hi,
    did you managed to avoid those squares?
    BTW: if any such char. is encountered in a line, the entire line of text is grabbled.
    I've tried even the ReportViewer from MSSQL 2014, but got the same problem. When I've tried IL Spy, I found a code, where it is checked if the PDFFont is composite - depending on that a glyph is created. But that still only a guess.
    I've tried Telerik's reporting, they have similar problem (beside other), but not with the special characters. They produced scuares for some sequences like: ft, fi, tí.
    Please give any info you got.
    Until then my advices for you:
    a) try JasperReports (seems theyre most advanced, although it is java)
    b) Developer express has quiet quality reports - and it seems they got those special chars. right :D
    c) I created a ticket and waiting for Telerik's response (but if I had to choose reporting, I vould stick with a) or b)

  • Issue with pasting text when saving for web and resizing

    This seems to be a very specific problem in PS CC 14.2.1 Mac.
    I have text in the clipboard.
    I go "SAVE FOR WEB" then  "SAVE . . ."
    I can then paste my name into the "Save As" name dialog.
    BUT
    If I I go "SAVE FOR WEB" then change the size of the file in the Image Size Box before I "SAVE . . ." I can no longer paste text in the naming dialog box.
    I haven't tried this for every permutation in the Save For Web dialog, but saving optimized as JPEG is what I'm having trouble with.
    I believe this is a bug.

    What might be happening is after you change the image size in the save for web dialog, one of the size fields is still highlighted, so when you paste
    in the save as dialog, the name is actually being pasted in one of the size fields in the main save for web dialog.
    After you change the size in the save for web dialog press the enter/return key and then see if pasting into the name field of the save dialog in save for web works.

    All iWork apps, both for iOS and OS X, have always had bugs that make them unsuitable for RTL scripts for most purposes.  The only solution is to use something else.

  • Keyboard Works OK - But what happened to Copy/Paste Text?

    Ability to Copy/Paste Text is a MUST if you want to search the Internet...

    It's a must if you want to be able to maintain lists on your phone and freely/easily re-org them at will.
    Unless they gave us a drag-able checklist like Apple's insanely great Notes & collapsible checklist/outliner feature from the Newton (see <<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Newton#Notes">this>) then I'd be happy.

  • I can't cut and paste text in any app, between apps, drag drop...

    OSX 10.7.2:   iMAC 24" FLAT-PANEL/ 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo/ 4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    I have owned and used my iMac since late in 2008 (although mine is an early 2008 model).
    Starting this evening (10 December 2011) I can't copy/paste text from the clipboard any longer. For example, I can't select and copy a URL then paste it in another tab of the same browser. Nothing is pasted.
    Dragging and dropping text from one browser window to another also doesn't work, nor from one browser URL bar to another browser bar.
    In sum, the most BASIC COPY/PASTING TEXT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL ANY LONGER!!!  Drag and drop ditto. Most frustrating!
    Anybody else had this problem suddenly come upon them???  Suggestions, advice.
    Thanks.  Tomeg
    ====================
    p.s. btw restarting the mac or shutting down booting up doesn't get rid of the problem. Next I will try unplugging everything then reconnecting.
    Haven't tried resetting PRAM yet. That will be my next and last resort.

    Oops! I discovered yesterday that *the real problem with my keyboard was (is) a diagonal "row" of keys isn't functioning*!  Unfortunately, the four keys are 'c, d, e, and 3/#'; hence, losing the '⌘-c' or "copy" function.
    Still, it helped some that I could employ the right-click with my wireless "magic mouse."
    Fortunately I remembered this morning that I had a perfectly good UBS keyboard with keypad from my previous Mac.
    A good learning experience! Thank you all for your help!!!   (:
