Since downloading 29.0.1 I can no longer cut, copy and paste. So frustrating!!!

I often copy and paste items into website forums with no problem. However, since I upgraded to 29.0.1 I can no longer do that and it's so frustrating. I have tried doing the extra steps of clicking on your copy and paste items but that doesn't help. I even tried uploading the AllowClipboard Helper but that didn't work either. I never needed that add-on in the past.
This is ridiculous.
How do I revert back to version 28? It worked fine but you just had to go ahead and "fix" it and I hate the new version. I was able to download the Classic Theme Restorer which helped a lot but some things I could not make like the version 28.

karen,
You don't need that user.js file any longer for those cut, copy, and paste preferences.
There is a Classic Theme Restorer support thread over here.

They'll be able to help you get rid of that orange Firefox button, which isn't needed if you have the Menu Bar showing.

Can you add cut copy and paste icons to mail toolbar?

Can you add a cut, copy and paste icons to the mail toolbar in macmail?

I guess that these were considered such fundamental operations, each with an already existing variety of operations (mouse, keyboard, right-click, ctrl+c etc) that the Thunderbird devs didn't choose to replicate them again. Similarly, keyboard selection is relied upon a great deal in Thunderbird, rather than adding all the ugly (IMHO) checkboxes that now counterintuitively litter all Windows Explorer displays.
So, if the devs expected you to use ctrl+right+shift to select the current text word by word, then ctrl+c to copy it, ctrl+x to cut it and ctrl+v to paste it would be quite natural, since your hands are already at the keyboard. Similarly, if you prefer to select by mouse, a right-click also offers options to copy, cut and paste, and there is also the possibility to drag selected text, serving cut and paste in one action. So it could be argued that there is no need for buttons.
There used to be additional button add-ons for Thunderbird, but those that I know about don't appear to be under active maintenance and don't currently work with TB 31.0.
You could build your own using a Custom Buttons add-on, but it isn't easy to find the appropriate function call to attach to your home-made buttons. :-(
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/custom-buttons/
Here's the code you need if you try this add-on:
cut: goDoCommand("cmd_cut")
copy: goDoCommand("cmd_copy")
paste: goDoCommand("cmd_paste")
(taken from: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyconfig_extension:_Thunderbird )
The tedious bit is finding suitable icons; the defaults are pretty but unhelpful coloured stars.

Can no longer cut/copy/paste and drag items with my mouse

I can no longer cut/copy and paste items. I've tried restarting and loading all updates, but that didnt help. I can also no longer drag items using my mouse. This includes in programs and on my desktop. Any ideas?

Many months ago I had a problem with my mouse on my iMac G5. Basically, I just wasn't able do much with my mouse anymore, sorta like you. It was terrible, having a mouse but not being able to do much with it.
Is your problem the same one I have? Don't know, but it sure sounds familiar. I did manage to fix the problem by accident, because I'm not really sure what I did to fix it, but I wrote down the incident what I was doing when it was corrected. I stored it away just in case it ever happened again.
I don't even remember what forum I was on when I wrote this, but here's what I wrote and maybe it will help, hopefully:
*Ok everybody, I finally got proper behavior, it's just too bad I'm not sure of the procedure.*
*"When I go to bed I usually run the mouse pointer to the upper left corner to activate the screensaver. Of course it didn't work. But I also knew that clicking a button causes the mouse to be sensed, so I was pushing some of the buttons while in the corner to see if I could get the screensaver going.*
*Well, after doing this, everything is back to normal operation again. So, I fixed it totally by accident. Makes me wonder if there's some features that are turned on and off somehow by doing whatever it was I did up in that corner."*

How can I use the "Copy and paste" tool in order get stamps in the same position in different pages (Acrobat XI for PC)?

With Acrobat 6.0 I was able to copy a stamp in the same position (I mean "exactly" the same one) of different pages just by using the "copy/past" tool.
Now I am using Acrobat XI and it seems like it is not possible anymore: I am copying a stamp and I am trying to past it in anoter page, but it appears in the center of the page (or wherever it wants to...).
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much. I'll be waiting for you message.

Well, I was in the same situation so I've developed a tool that allows one to do it. I will send you some additional information about it in a private message.

hi i can't seem to copy and paste pdf files from preview to a microsoft word document. it always comes up with nonsense characters in the word document. how do i fix this? thanks in advance

Hi,
The quickest way to do this (tested with OS 10.8.2, MS Word 2011) is in one line:
tell application "Microsoft Word" to close every document whose name begins with "book"
The reason why your script doesn't work is that you aren't specifying to Word which document you want it to close.
So, changing one line ought to do it:
close document incrementvalue -- instead of "close document"
But... when you close a document, you change the document count. Document 2 becomes document 1, document 3 becomes document 2 etc. So eventually you'd get a message saying "The object you are trying to access doesn't exist".
Because of this, if you want to do it in a repeat loop, you have to work backwards:
tell application "Microsoft Word"
set doc_count to count documents
repeat with x from doc_count to 1 by -1
if name of document x begins with "book" then close document x
end repeat
end tell
Hope this helps.

All of a sudden I can not print my e-mail in firefox (I used to be able to) I can print if I copy and paste to MSW or do it in IE or a Web sight.

Is it possible you mistakenly clicked on a [Clear Layout] button?
But a great hint is- Always click on the [Create a Saved Book] button, early in your new book design.
Then you have a permanent link to the book in the Collections panel. (In addition to the standard collection of your selected images)
Note: a Book Collection shows an icon that looks like a book.
Every time you come back to edit the book, open the Book Module by clicking on the white arrow that appears on the end of your Book Collection title. (The title as saved)
Re-opening a book without using the "Saved Book" option can have unpredictable results.
A "Book" Collection is like a "Smart Collection" because anything you do to the book design, change pages, change images, etc, is automatically updated in the Saved Book collection.

In Firefox 36.0.1, can I show ONLY copy and paste in the navigation toolbar without showing cut?

In Firefox 36.0.1, can I show ONLY copy and paste in the navigation toolbar without showing cut?

Do you only want this to happen if you right-click in the location/address bar?
You can ddd code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#urlbar menupopup menuitem[label="Cut"] { display:none !important; }
</nowiki></pre>
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
*Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in the chrome folder (file name is case sensitive)
*Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window
*Make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
*Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

Since I lost windows explorer I am not able to copy and paste pictures on my emails using either photobucket or just pictres

I send out flyers to around 100 plus people almost everyday. I have no problem forwarding someone Else's pictures but I can't copy and paste a picture into my emails with photobucket or my own pictures myself. I was able to do this with windows explorers but since it doesn't work I use firefox and that doesn't work. It is frustrating. I can still go to my pc and do this process but not my laptop.
I would really appreciate your advice are you compatible with yahoo?

WHich system?
Any third party plugins installed?
Any clipboard extensions in your system?
Maybe Pushbullet?

I want to move all my email data over the past several years from one yahoo account to another. I am told that I can use Thunderbird to copy and paste . How?

I wish to close down one email account but have no time to indivuidaully send emails out piecemeal to my newly set-up email address/account.
I want to keep the same InBox and Sent data columns as I have always had with dates associated with each email.
I was told that setting up Thunderbird to deal with emailing can facilitate this copying and pasting between two accounts.
Once done I wish to close my first email account ( its unfortuneately contractually linked to my old iphone 4 and I have changed cell phone companies so I am still keeping that account alive while I sort out how to move my data out into my new email account) and stick to using the new account.
Both are yahoo.co.jp email accounts. Yes, I live in Japan.
The Thunderbird program seems to have accessed and stored all of my email data . It did so quickly.
Please advise what to do next.
Thanks
JW

I want to move the Ipad from my husbands account to my account so I can purchase him an Ipad2 and I can use the old one with all the settings and apps as they are now and then update with my contact information.
How do I do this?
He will run into a problem when he wants to use his own account. Some apps will have been purchased on one Apple ID and other apps will have been purchased on a different Apple ID. That's a nuisance situation when the apps need updating and, unfortunately, there is no resolution at the present time (IDs can not be combined).

Open up Finder and go to your flash drive. Now open up iPhoto and drag and drop the pictures you want into the flash drive folder.
By the way, how is your PPC mac running Lion?

If you're using 10.6 (as your post says) then there are no "latest software updates". If you're not using it, then you need to tell us what version of the OS you have, what updates you downloaded and how you access "UTUBE" and AOL

Burning DVD, can't drag or copy and paste items, all I get is an alias -mbp

Hi all
Just upgraded to Leopard, am I being dumb?
When I drag items to a blank DVD or copy from the HD and paste to the DVD all I get is an alias version of the files??
I have found if I hold down "alt" it copies the actual files... is there a way of swapping this as who wants to burn a disc of alias's??
Az
PS Merry Christmas!

Actually ever since Tiger there has been a change to "burn folders" which show an alias when you drag items to a mounted blank disk. Prior to Tiger the system would indeed make a copy of items to be burned, then after burning you recovered the disk space. Starting with Tiger this was changed, the alias is used and when you burn the disk the system uses the alias and burns the original to the disk. The only thing to be aware of that can cause a problem is if you find you have more "stuff" in the burn folder than space on the blank disk, and open the alias in the burn folder to trash some files--you are, of course, trashing your originals. So don't do that! Move some stuff to the Desktop or another folder to reduce the size.

Why can't i Cut items and paste them? I have to copy Paste and delete them?

Why can't i cut items (ctl + x) on my Macbook air? I always have to copy item from original location to location where i want to paste and del

Are you talking about cut/paste within an application (i.e.: Word, Textedit) or Finder? (i.e.: cut/move file to folder or external hard drive.) Finder doesn't have cut, just copy. As to why, you'd have to ask Apple.

Since downloading 29.0.1 I can no longer cut, copy and paste. So frustrating!!!
