Right click...copy (grabbing a picture)...???

Another migration from Windows to Mac question. On the former, if you see a picture on a webpage that you want to take a copy of, you right click it with the mouse and then Copy/Paste it into another document. How do you do this on Mac (know right click) ??

Also, the Mac is VERY drag 'n drop oriented. You can simply click and hold on an image and drag it to the Desktop (or any other folder) and drop. It will be copied there. If a program will open an image, for instance Preview, you can drop it on the program's icon in the Dock and it will open the image. With a text program that accepts images, such as TextEdit, you can drop the image into an open window and the image will be pasted in at the location you drop it (how well this works depends on the program in question--some will just display the URL of the image, some the image).

  • How to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users.

    Hi! I would like to know if there is any possibility to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users. I know that's possible to edit userContent.css or userChrome.css, but this concerns only a profile at a time and being in a domain, I would like to set this for all people using Firefox.
    Can it be possible to edit a mozilla.cfg file to get the same result?
    Thank you in advance for help and tips.

    AFAIK then there is no way to do that system wide. You can only do that via userChrome.css or an extension like the Menu Editor per profile .You can install extensions globally, but the user will have to enable them anyway. That is not required for userChrome.css code.

  • New itune download. unable to right click copy

    new itunes download.
    I'm now unable to right click copy and past album artwork on my itune library.
    Please can you help

    The iTunes 12 Get Info dialog lacks right-click context menus (at least for now) but it still accepts most standard keyboard shortcuts and drag & drop actions.
    Delete Artwork
    On the artwork tab of Get Into, tap the image in question, use Backspace or Ctrl+X. Delete doesn't work.
    Or, tap the image at the top left of Get Info, this time use Backspace or Delete, it is Ctrl+X that doesn't work.
    Add Artwork
    Select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the center of the Artwork tab, press Ctrl+V to paste.
    Or, select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the small image area at the top left, press Ctrl+V to paste.
    Or, you can drag & drop to, or sometimes from, the same locations.
    You can also copy artwork from the Get Info dialog to Windows Explorer with the keyboard shortcuts.
    If the source image is on a web page right-click and use Copy Image rather than copy. (With Chrome I get a one pixel wraparound so tend to go for a temporary local copy anyway - not sure whose bug this is, but it isn't new.)
    If you have multiple images embedded drag the one you want to be the primary artwork to the leftmost position.
    Replace/Remove All Artwork
    The top left image box can be used to add or delete art from multiple tracks. In either case all existing artwork in all tracks is replaced/removed.
    Old Style Get Info Dialog
    Select some items, right-click, hold down shift, then click Get Info from the context menu. (Use alt/option on a Mac)

  • When I right click to save a picture why doesn't the box come up to choose where to put it?

    When I right click to save a picture why doesn't the box come up to choose where to put it?
    Or if I'm trying to upload a pic to a site say for instance a job site and trying to upload a resume and when I click on the button nothing happens.
    This is very frustrating when I have a lot of time invested on the site I'm on and can't upload.

    Ahh.. :)
    A-Go to upper left corner and select preferences. In general tab,there is an option to ask everytime whenever you are going to put your downloading files.
    B-Update your browser and reset it.Might be you are unable to upload because of viruses too. So make sure to scan your pc by a good antivirus. Okay? :)
    Thank you for asking a question

  • ITunes-Can't Right Click-Copy Paste

    http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/5302/picture3jg0.png (Example of what I see)
    I have seen this error before on these forums (once-http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3307808&#3307808), although the original poster never replied, so I think a new thread is probably justified. Does anyone have any ideas? I have tried creating a new account in System Pref./Accounts, and that doesn't work when I tried on iTunes on that account. Also...since I'm still on the subject of iTunes, I have tried installing VolumeLogic Beta for iTunes 7, and it worked on my old account (this is my second "new" account, I deleted the old one to get Safari tabs to look right--ik, dumb, but it was the only thing that worked), but vL will not work on my new account no matter what I've tried. Any ideas?
    I appreciate it,
    Dustin.
    Edit...I also should mention that if I right click on song, and click Get Info, and go to the artwork tab, I CAN copy and paste album artwork...it just ***** that way...

    Go to the start menu and search "System Restore" and restore to a point where you didnt have this issue. It will not delete any documents, music, pictures, etc.

  • Why can't I right-click and set desktop picture?

    Greetings.
    I am having a lot of trouble changing my desktop picture. From what I understand, you right-click the image and click on 'set as desktop picture'. I click it and nothing changes. I have tried to download the image and set it manually through System Preferences but when I go into Desktop & Screen Saver but there are no other folders other than the 'Apple' one that have the wallpapers that come with the computer.
    If it's relevant at all, my macbook pro is a 10.6.8 version.

    You should be able to do it three ways, some of which you already know:
    Right-click image, choose "Set Desktop Picture"
    Right-click desktop, choose "Change Desktop Background"
    Go into System Preferences, click "Desktop and Screen Saver"
    Note when you are in System Preferences, the current desktop is shown in an indented "well." That always indicates that it is a drop target. You don't need to be able to see in the list the pictures or folder you want. Just drag it from the desktop, or iPhoto, or whatever app you're looking at your photo in, and drop it in that well, and it will be set.

    If you did want to do it the old-fashioned way and drill through folders and files, you can click the plus symbol [ + ] below the list there and then you can add any folder to the list. In case you have a folder full of desktop backgrounds, for instance.
    (I might be wrong about some of this since I am using 10.8)

  • Right Click - Copy/Paste/Cut

    When clicking on a object on the Front Panel or Block Diagram, you can use the Ctrl + C/V/X keys to copy, paste, and cut.  You can also highlight text and use those same shortcut keys while editing.  However, right clicking on an object or highlighted text does not display these options.  It could be useful to have these three options in the right click menu on objects and text.

  • With the Lion, the copy and paste commands don't work.  So if you choose a photo and right click Copy, this photo can't be pasted in another event.  This used to work with Snow Leopard.

    The copy and paste functions in iPhoto used to work in Snow Leopard, but not with the Lion.  How do I copy and paste photos from one event to another?  What I don't understand is that it used to work with Snow Leopard, and now that the OS has been upgraded to Lion, it doesn't? 

    Instead of copy and paste drag the photo to the new event. Or flag it and use the add flagged photos to selected event command

  • Mouse right click copy and paste issue

    No matter if I use the trackpad or any mouse if I go to copy & paste something to the end of a sentence it will backspace to the next word. I can hit SPACE and seperate it and it will still backspace into the last word like this. Example. Hello my name is TomI live in the US.
    C&P'd . (I live in the US) as you can see the m and I are together.
    I can space 8-10 spaces and it will backup every time. Gets annoying when you have a lot of C&P to do.

    @ IffatAsyraff, Not sure how long but it's more pronouned now that I'm having to C&P a lot of my work.
    @LexSchellings, I used the space bar not the arrows.
    @ LowLuster, No, It does that on it's own.(highlights)
    I added space with the SPACE BAR to show that whether I space once or 10 times it backs it up.
    I know the video is crappy because I was holding my phone while recoding and when it shows me highlighting the sentence I was attempting to rease it to show how it C&P's but the last part is what it does.

  • I cannot download individual pictures from ebay. When I right click the picture (enlarged) or the small picture I don't get the option to "save picture as". Is this a firefox problem or a yahoo problem?

    I always use firefox to browse the internet. When I attempt to save a picture from ebay I have always enlarged the picture, right click, the clicked "save picture as". Now when I right click I don't get that option. All it will let me do is save the entire ebay item file. When I right click on the enlarged picture, the small picture, or the white near the enlarged photo my icon choices are: 1.Copy 2. Select All 3.Yahoo 4. Search Yahoo for "Please wait imag" 5. View selection source. Is this a firefox problem or a yahoo issue? Please help. Thanks John

    I've tried all kinds of different ways to make it work, and nothing! The only way I can get the pictures off ebay is open up a internet explorer window and go that route. Fire fox NEEDS to fix this NOW!

  • How do I right click and save pictures in flash

    Hey,
    I am wondering if its possible to create a flash button that

    picture, I want to be able to do the same thing but in flash. Is
