There is 3rd party software that makes cut & paste easier with just 1 or 2 steps. 
Q2 how do I correct a spelling error when it has a red line under it?
You can find the correct spelling in the Apple dictionary.  Just add the correct spelling & delete the error.
Care to share which OS you are using and which model iMac you have?

    How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

    You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

    How do I cut and past on my MACBOOK PRO?

    You can use the hotkeys, as Steve said. It sort of sounds as if you can't right click though.
    If you're using the touchpad, go into system preferences>trackpad, enable "secondary click, tap with 2 fingers". Then, when you click/tap the touchpad with 2 fingers instead of one, it'll right click, giving you the option to copy/paste whatever you highlighted.

  • How do I cut and paste?  I want to change the background around a Christmas tree

    How do I cut and paste in Elements 10.  I want to change the background around a Christmas tree.

    One way would be to open the background image, then go to File<Place and select your christmas tree image.
    Now you have two layers.
    Make a selection of the christmas tree with the Quick Selection Tool and then add a layer mask.
    Now you can see the background around the tree.
    Of course your selection may still need some tweaking, so you could paint on the layer mask to further refine the selection.
    What version of photoshop elements?
    example before: (didn't have a chritmas tree image handy)

    It helps if you provide details - not just a problem
    What exactly dod you have and have you done?
    What version of iPhoto did you have and what version do you now have? Of the OS? If you are upgrading from iphoto '08 or earlier did you download and RUN the iphoto library upgrader?

  • How do I cut and paste sets of lines for use in various Math questions?

    How do I cut and paste sets of lines for use in various Math questions?

    Thank you for your reply. My problem is much simpler than you are thinking. As a teacher I prepare sheets with random number generators.
    EG. 256 + 389= ______    or         467
                                                 -  384
           469 + 753= ______     
    or  5)750
    On a PC I was able to start a page of A4 with one set and then drag and drop down and across the page.
    On my Macbook I can get the numbers in but the lines do not copy. I asked at one of my One to One sessions and it had my 'trainer' stumped. He said he would make enquiries but so far no news. I am using Numbers.
    I hope I have explained my 'problem' satisfactorily.

  • With PS 7  create new  Place two objects on the new file  then you may cut copy and paste Cs2  create new  place two object on the new file Cut is not available how does one cut and paste in new file

    With PS 7
    create new
    Place two objects on the new file
    then you may cut copy and paste
    Cs2
    create new
    place two object on the new file
    Cut is not available how does one cut and paste in new file

    If your using File>Place then photoshop cs2 creates what's known as Smart Objects, which photoshop 7 didn't have.
    In photoshop cs2 you can rasterize the smart objects and that should make the Cut function available.
    Select both placed layers, right click on the area to the right of the tumbnail and select Rasterize Layers.
    If in photoshop cs2 you to Help>Photoshop Help and look under Layers>Smart Objects, that should give you a good overview of what smart objects are.

  • How do I cut and paste an appointment and change the appointment date?

    I have just moved to the Iphone 3GS after many years on Windows Mobiles so it's all new to me, but how do I cut and paste appointment information?
    I also need to be able to change the date of an appointment, but could not figure out how.
    Thx
    Bryce

    That's fine for changing an appointment date, but is there a way to "copy" an appointment and paste it into a new date so that the date of the original appointment isn't lost?
    For example, I have an appointment that occurs every 4-5 weeks, and we set the future date at our meetings, but I need to be able to go back and review earlier when earlier meeting dates took place to be able to track milestones. If I simply change the current appointment date I'll lose that history.
    In Outlook I can simply copy and paste an appointment into a new date, but I'd like to be able to do so from my phone for when I'm not in my office. How can I do this?

  • How do you cut and paste tables in and out of Excel from either Mail.app or Outlook 2011?

    When I try to cut and paste a table generated in Excel for Mac into the body of an email the formatting holds but when I send the table is reduced to one column. Same is true for copying from incoming mail into Excel, when I paste into Excel it is reduced to one column rather than keeping the table format. I have tried using mail.app and went out and Outlook 2011 and both programs have the same issue. The reformatting also happens when I forward an email received from a coworker that contains a table, not just on cut and paste operations.
    I need to do this regularly and right now my only option is using my old PC where the cut and paste function keeps formatting between Excel and Outlook just fine. Attaching a pdf or excel file is not an option. There has to be a way to maintain the formatting and being able to extract the tables keeping them intact. Please let me know if you have a solution to maintain this formatting within email programs. Thank you in advance.

    Selecting all does not help - the issue is I need a table within an incoming email to be moved to excel, edited and then pasted back into a new email. "Select All" picks up the email headers, signatures, any messages around the table etc so that doesn't work. Also, as pointed out above Excel doesn't have a select all feature to get the tables back into the body of an email.
    I just tried again going from Excel into Outlook 2011. No luck. All one column down the left side of the email. All columns are removed and text crammed into one column. Just to check I cut from one Excel document and pasted into another and it retained all formating just fine. It is only in and out of Outlook that seems to be the issue.

  • HT3737 how do you cut and paste on an iMac

    how do you cut and paste on an imac

    If you're talking about cut and paste as you would do with files and folder on a Windows box you do it in a round about way.
    Either Copy ⌘C, (Yes copy not cut), and then move, ⌘⌥V (a variation on paste ⌘V).
    If you're a mouser.
    Right click the File and choose Copy from.....
    The right click the folder you want to move it to but hold down the option key and Paste item.....
    ...will change to Move item here.

  • How do I cut and paste in iBook?

    I am looking for ways to cut and paste info in some of my iBook resources but can't find a way to do it.

    How do you cut and paste in other programs?
    * Select: use cursor keys and shift, or drag over with the mouse
    * Copy: ctrl+c, or right-click|Copy
    * Paste: ctrl+v, or right-click|Paste
    It doesn't make sense to cut; you wouldn't want to damage email messages, surely?
