Problem with Copy and Paste in Edit
Today i cannot get Copy and Paste to operate. After highlighting a link in blue I cannot get the Copy to register. The link stays blue and does not respond to Copy click. I send links on Yahoo IM to friends of sites or Youtube videos. Thanx for the great help here!
I'm glad that is working again. Copy and Paste is such a fundamental operation, a computer is useless without it.
By the way have you had a look at Mac 101 Essentials? At the bottom of that page are further link. Just thought it might be useful to you as you are new to Apple Macs.
Happy computing.

Problem with copying and pasting text blocks in Fireworks CS5
Until recently when I copied and pasted a text block in Fireworks CS5, the block would retain all formatting applied to the copied text block, font, size, color, etc. Now, the pasted block reverts to some default setting. Oddly, if I copy multiple text blocks, the formatting is retained as expected, but not if I copy a single text block. I cannot find a preference that affects this, and I cannot figure out what might have changed. The current behaviour is definitely not desired, and is dramatically affecting my efficiency. Anyone experienced something similar or have any ideas how to correct this? Thanks.
Sure, thanks for replying so quickly. My workflow is simple. My problem is limited to copying and pasting within Fireworks. I typically select an entire block with the main selection arrow but I sometimes use this one too depending on the context. I usually just use the keyboard CTRL-C then CTRL-V to paste. Previously (and I have been using FW for years, it's always been the same) it would paste an identical text block directly over the top of the copied one, and it looked exactly the same, same font, same color, etc. Now, it pastes a new block in the center of the document and all the formatting has reverted to what I guess is the default, in this case Myriad Pro 12pt. The behavior is the same no matter which arrow I use to select the text block. I tried Edit>Copy and Edit>Paste, the effect was the same. The Duplicate function seems to work as desired, but I had never noticed or tried that command before reading your post. Using the keyboard to copy/paste is such an ingrained habit I'd much prefer to continue using it as I always have instead of trying to retrain myself. (I'm old, retraining is hard!)
(Selected block)
(pasted block)
Most often I copy and paste directly on the canvas, but occasionally will do it within the layers panel. Both now have the same undesired effect. I also tried creating a new document to see if it was a corruption in my current file, but the issue persisted to the new document as well.
Thanks. -
When trying to copy and paste, i have a hard time with at least 9 attempts before it takes effect. Thais has been going on for about 2 weeks now. Everything seems to happen as it's suppose to until you go and try to paste.
Update; As of now, i am able to copy and paste. Steps i have taken to correct issues i had before.
- I installed browser again, but issue came up again.
-I uninstalled Google Chrome browser, it recently showed up in my task manger when i was not using the browser. AnVir Task Manger showed it being in use, so i stopped the processor and uninstalled Google Chrome.
'''From Zdnet;Google has shipped a new version of its Chrome web browser to fix at least 14 security vulnerabilities that expose users to malicious hacker attacks.'''
-I was using Iobit Toolbox Memory. For some reason, this seemed to be the cause of the problem. After uninstalling it, i am able to copy and paste with no more issues.
I'm no expert, but this has worked for me. Enjoy your weekend. :-) -
Problems with copy and paste document size
Using Adobe illustrator I have been copying images from a .pdf and then pasting in photoshop having made an action script which does : -
>Make New document
preset clipboard
>Paste
with aa
as: smart object
center: center
Translate 0, cm , 0cm
>Save
As JPEG
Quality 12
Matte: none
In E:/my documents....
with copy
most of the time it works but occasionaly pasting into photoshop the clipboard size is wrong it makes it much much smaller,
even if i bypass using the script and copy from illustrator and in PS try Ctrl N and Ctrl V.
Sometimes also clipboard isnt even selectable it wants to use a specific document size.
The only way I can fix it is close down Ai and PS, launch Ai and PS, copy in Ai then in PS press Ctrl N for New, choosing clipboard, Ctrl V to paste enter to confirm, then it seems happy and I can then carry on using my Actions or manually pasting to my hearts content.
My question is what is causing it to have this quirk, how can I avoid it if possible or is there no avoiding it?>> How can I have dreamweaver hold format with
different tabs and bullets
Generally a bad idea. Word's HTML formatting is notoriously
flawed. And,
HTML doesn't allow tabs. You probably need to take time to
learn (X)HTML &
CSS before going further. You seem to be headed for disaster
if you expect
to just grab text from Word and plop it into a web page with
good results.
Web pages are in an entirely different world than Word docs.

I am having a problem with copying and pasting text into the Safari search bar.
For example, when I copy and paste "Organic Chemistry: A Short Course" it will change to Organic%20Chemistry:%20A%20Short%20Course"
It will then tell me it has failed to open page, even though my interenet is otherwise working.
How can I fix this?What you tried worked for me. Try "Organic Chemistry - A Short Course" It took me to the same search result as what you are trying.

Copy and Paste While Editing Bookmarks
I am having a problem on my iPad 2 (ios5) copying and pasting while trying to edit bookmarks. I can copy and paste in the name of the bookmark, but cannot on the web address. This has become a problem because I would like to use a bookmarklet and I need to copy and paste the long code. Has anyone else had this issue and fixed it? The bookmarklet I am trying to use is called dotepub and it converts any web page to an epub format. I was shown this by an Apple employee and it worked great for him and will not for me. Thanks for any help.
Hi Gil,
Not a problem (I actually had to Check first)
I have not mentioned iChat 6 as I don't have a version in front of me (Although my son has Upstairs - and he was not here when I posted yesterday)
The iChat 4 Help says
This does require some manual dexterity.
Defcom's solution is a lot more elegant with the features iChat has.

Edited by: 847441 on Mar 25, 2011 9:39 AMWhat is the difference between this instance and other instances?
Was this working before? If yes, any changes have been done recently?
Can you reproduce the issue from other clients using same/different browsers/users?

Memory Error in PSCS4 with Copy and Paste
While working on a complicated project involving copying and pasting into PSCS4 from several applications I received this error and Photoshop closed down with loss of my work.
I'm in Windows XP Pro SP3 and using a workstation with 2GB of error correcting memory. I had no such problems in PS3 and other applications work fine.

Problems with cut and paste within the code editor in JDeveloper 10.1.3 EA
Copy and pasting doesn't work as expected. If I copy some code and paste it somewhere else, i get completely different code, (it seems to paste a piece of code from somewhere else in the source).
I tried expanding + signs, this didn't help.
I'am running JDeveloper on Windows XP Professional.
Does anybody else have the same problem.
Is this a bug?We've tracked down this issue thanks to Tullio's supplying us with a reproducible testcase. It's related to the "Automatically Copy Paste Imports" preference (which is on by default) in the Tools->Preferences->Code Editor category of IDE preferences. It seems to also be related to having renamed a source path directory to have a name that is only different by case from the name it originally had. Disabling this preference is a workaround for EA1.
For example, if you started out by creating your workspace with a source directory named "Src", then later renamed it to "src", this seems related to the situation when this issue can occur. Renaming the directory back to match what it was before is another workaround for EA1. -
Im using captivate 7 and when editing a slide element such as atext caption, image or anything really, I cannot copy and paste an item. It makes a sound when I try command C but does nothing. Right click shows options only for slide but nothing for copy options.
Hi there,
Are you trying to copy/paste a Title/Subtitle Placeholder or a normal Text caption? Can you please post a screenshot of the object's Right Click menu so that we can understand the issue better?
Thanks,

Can someone help me with copy and paste?
My first time to this discussion. I am just learning the protocals.
Not sure what happened but for some reason I cannot copy a file in finder and paste it. I also cannot copy in word. Basicly it stopped working altogether.
I shut down remote desktop, I have an XSAN that I use for editing.Hmmm, not sure but I'd try this in the old account...
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive. -
Hello. I have an iphone 3g with which I successfully cut and pasted links and other such items for quite some time; however, over the past week or so, every time I copy a link or text, when I go to paste it, a youtube link gets pasted.
Try a Reset... you will not lose any Data or Settings...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
