Sudden Copy paste failure & then return

Hello,
I Just had a sudden failure of copy & paste feature whilst in feedback
attempting to paste a message. Then also when i typed my reply nothing there in preview, tried to paste something on mail message nothing tried drag & drop nothing. This is the log message, from the console I am not sure of the meaning. Does any one else know? Then it returned, as sudden as it was gone. This is on the FP 10.3.9.
Would this be a font problem/ conflict ?? ( it worked just now )
Any advice, guidance would be so very appreciated.
Thank you.
Eme

RoboHelp Crashes when I Copy & Paste Text then Amend the Pasted Text

I am copying text from one RoboHelp topic then pasting it into another RoboHelp topic (within the same project). If I then try to make a change to the pasted text RoboHelp crashes. This happens every single time so at least it is consistant!
Any suggestions/solutions?

Bit weird but it seems to be playing ball now!
I copy/pasted text in the HTML editor and it works fine. Went back to the Wisiwig editor and tried it again, and it didn't crash.
Really weird, I must have consistently crashed the sytem over 20 times this morning, so no idea why it chooses to work now!
Thanks anyway, if it happens again I will reinstall RoboHelp and see if that is a long term cure.
Cheers,
Nicola

Update pages in form by import then copy/paste

I have inherited a dynamic interactive PDF. Essentially what they did was take multiple pdfs and put them in one, visually shown below.
form1.pdf, 1 page-----
|
form2.pdf, 2 pages----
|---------> formall.pdf
form3.pdf, 4 pages----
|
form4.pdf, 3 pages----
|
etc...----------------
Well now they have made massive changes to form2.pdf and form4.pdf and I am supposed to update formall.pdf.
Is there any way to pull NewForm2.pdf into the existing formall.pdf, and then copy/paste the fields from the current form2 in formall.pdf onto the new one, then delete the old form2 pages?
The changes in NewForm2 are extensive and it would take quite a while to just redo form2 inside formall.
I do not think they thought about updates when they created formall.pdf. I would like to separate the forms and use something like Forms Server, or even add each form into a library where I could add the new version and create a new formall, but I do not have time.
The only tools I have are LiveCycle Designer 7 and Adobe Reader 7.05. I do NOT have Acrobat.
I have seen several posts about inserting pdfs from Designer into Acrobat to update, but not inserting pdfs into Designer to update.
I tried importing NewForm2.pdf into Designer with formall.pdf already open, but it always creates a completely new form.
Thanks

I exported a PDF from Pages v5.2.2. This uses Apple's Quartz PDFContext, not Quark.
In Windows 7, I opened this PDF with Adobe Acrobat Reader v11.0.09. I then copied/pasted a paragraph of this PDF content into LibreOffice Writer (v4.3.2.2). Since there was Baskerville in Windows 7, this comment pasted correctly including font-size. I did not have to make any adjustments to LO to accept this text.
On Ubuntu Linux 14.04, with the latest updates, I opened the same PDF in Evince, the default PDF viewer. Adobe does not offer an Acrobat Reader download for Linux. Again, I copied and pasted a paragraph of content from the PDF viewer into LibreOffice Writer. As there was no Baskerville installed, Writer defaulted to the Liberation font, at the correct point size.
In either of these platform scenarios, there were no anomalies with sentence/paragraph newlines .vs. carriage return issues from the PDF document during copy/paste operations. These were default control-v pastes that did not use the Paste Special menu item in LibreOffice.

Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?

Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original? The cut and paste function is not available and there's no "move to" function. Am I missing something? It was so easy with Windows.

Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

The MacBook Pro will not allow me to cut-and-paste to and from or to click-and-drag to the external drive. I can copy-and-paste, but then I must send the original to the trash, which doubles the time and effort. Is there any way to cut-and-paste?

I have recently switched from a PC to a MacBook Pro.
I have a large number of documents and photographs on a multiterrabite external drive, backed up on a second multiterrabite external drive.
Both external drives are formatted for MacIntosh. This has been verified by agents at an Apple store and also at Best Buy in two different cities.
This is the problem:

Also, the MacBook Pro will not allow me to rename multiple documents or photographs. I can click-and-rename a single one, but this is impossibly time consuming. I can batch-rename in iPhoto, but when I transfer the photographs to the external drive, the rename does not transfer.
I’m reduced to using my wife’s Toshiba to cut-and-past, rename, and transfer documents. It works perfectly. Is there any way to do this on the MacBook Pro?
Thanks!

No, this is a philosophical difference between Apple and Microsoft. Apple believes that it's dangerous to cut a file in case the user never pastes it; in that case the file is lost. Microsoft seems to not have this problem (if I remember Windows correctly) because they don't delete the originating file if it's cut but never pasted.
Even though Macs have a lot of keyboard shortcuts, philosophically Macs have traditionally been mouse-first. This applies to file copy operations. In your case, what a Mac user would do is open the source window, open the destination window (on your second drive), and then Command-drag the selected files from the source to destination window. This is because a normal drag would leave the originals behind, while adding the Command modifier key tells OS X that this is a Move, not a Copy, so don't leave the originals behind.
(In addition there are different rules for drag-copying within the same volume or between different volumes. If you drag between two folders on the same volume, the files are moved. If you drag between different volumes, the files are copied unless you hold down Command to delete the copies on the source volume.)

Two problems in this case. First, batch file renaming is not built into OS X unless you build something with Automator. However, there are many utilities that can do batch file renaming which you can find at macupdate.com or on the App Store. Since I work with media I often batch rename using one of the media managers I have lying around like Media Pro or Adobe Bridge (comes with Photoshop).
iPhoto is a database front end designed to shield the file system from the consumer and let them concentrate on creativity and sharing. As such it is often a poor choice for managing files directly. When you "transferred the photographs" chances are you moved the originals, not the ones iPhoto edited which are stored in a hidden folder.

There will not be a way to do it exactly like Windows. As described above, there are ways to do it "the Mac way." If it is possible to remove judgment on which way is "better" you might find the Mac way to be acceptable, but of course sometimes we simply prefer what we're used to.

I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen. I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email. Does this app exist?

It seems like we were doing these same types of things with Palm Pilots years ago, one would think this would work with iPads?

I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...

When I'm browsing on Safari, it all of a sudden cuts off and the screen turns blue. It turns blue for about 5 seconds and then returns to the desktop screen. Any idea what's going on?

Calling Javascripts with a panel then prevents copy/paste functions in Photoshop CS5

Hi,
I have a simple panel in Photoshop that calls a Javascript when a button is pressed.
I have a simple script that does some Duplication of layers and a bit of simple image manipulation.
I run the script from the Extended Toolkit and eveything works fine.
I run the same script from the Panel and the script runs fine; but then the copy / Paste functionality of Photoshop is broken.
I have to close the Panel window or run the script from the toolkit to get the functionality back.
EDIT: I have not narrowed this down to simple interations with the Panel can casue this issue - clicking on icons, switching `Tabs` etc...
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Cheers,
Pete

Hi,
I created a simple panel that only had a button that calls an external JavaScript.
Even if I simply click on the panel a few times, move it around etc without executing the script, I can get the copy paste error. It happens 90% of the time and interestingly it only happens on the currently active document.
The only way to get the functionality back is to close the panel.
It seems to be a focus issue, but as I'm not calling any script in this case - where could I put the Bridge Talk command?

CS3 .indd and .inx file freezes (not responding) in soft returns, copy/paste, across machines

My file first started crashing when I tried to soft-return following an em-dash, en-dash, or hyphen. For a while I worked around this by soft-returning on the line below, typing in the text from above, and backspacing the line above (all to help with typesetting the rag).
I had diagnositics run on my machine at the Genius Bar where they replaced my battery and ran first aid, etc.
Software-wise, I've since tried deleting preferences, etc, in the library. I looked to delete the application support file but didn't find one. I also tried opening the file on a second laptop and it still crashed when I did the items above (returns, copy/paste). I tried exporting to an .inx to clean up the file. However, when I open it (Untitled) and try to save it as an .indd to keep working, the software freezes.
I'm using InDesign CS3 and Mac OS 10.5.8.
I've copied the crash report (from the frozen .inx saving) here: http://pastebin.com/Dq9UCgk1
Thank you in advance for your assistance

As I don't want to install additional software to measure temparetures I can't tell you about my exact core temperatures. However, I can tell you that my fans go off again when load decreases for some time.

Suddenly the apps I downloaded won't work. The screen "blinks" for a second as if the app is loading, and then returns to the home screen. All the apps that came with the iPod seem to be working fine. How to get them all working again?

First try a hard reset. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If still no luck, try downloading another free app from the App Store.

I used to copy from emails then paste to my word processor, now there is no edit option on firefox. why?

there isn't an edit option in firefox. therefore i can't copy from email and paste to word processor. why?

You can find the Copy, Paste, and Cut buttons next to Firefox > Edit (and in its sub menu) and in the regular Edit menu on the menu bar (press F10 if the menu bar is hidden).<br />
The buttons next to Firefox > Edit are enabled if there is something to do with them, just like with the toolbar buttons.<br />
You can find the Copy, Paste, and Cut toolbar buttons in the toolbar palette in the Customize window and drag them on a toolbar.<br />
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

Suddenly unable to copy & paste in Indesign CS5

I was working in a document, and I'm now unable to use copy & paste. Keyboard shortcuts do not work and items are inactive in the top menu.
Any idea what's wrong ?

Second step is trashing the prefs. See Replace Your Preferences

Suddenly I cannot copy paste between applications.

Has anyone dealt with this issue? I used to be able to copy and paste between all my applications.
Now I can copy from one web browser to another, and from one Word document to another, but I cannot copy/paste from the web to Word or vice versa.
I'd appreciate some help!

Verizon Supervisor Dismissal of Concerns/Failure to Return Requested Calls

Frankly, I am outraged at the lack of concern and the failure of Verizon Wireless' Customer Care Supervisors failure to return my calls after REPEATED request through customer service representatives. I initially called Verizon Wireless because I was at the end of my contract with a mobile pac which I was not and had not been using for months. I was told by two different customer care representatives incorrect dates at which time I would be allowed to terminate the service without having to pay the early termination fee. My MAIN concern and my actual reason for calling Verizon Wireless is because I have been placed on Social Security Disability; I am unable to work, and I SIMPLY wanted to have a representative look at my account and tell me what I could do to reduce the amount I pay each month. The young man told me that the termination of the mobile pac would reduce my monthly bill by $50.00, bringing me from approximately a $300.00 monthly bill to a $250.00 monthly bill. Though this was still a pretty hefty sum for me to pay each month out of the $1700.00 I receive, in disability benefits, I decided this would at least provide me with some relief. The representative then told me I was eligible for upgrades on two of the phones of the four I have on my account. I discussed the Samsung Galaxy five which was being advertised for $199.00, but I decided I was not willing to upgrade at the pricing. Then, I was told I could get two Samsung Galaxy four phones for $99.00; I would also receive two $50.00 Visa Rebate Cards which I could use to apply to my bill in order to actually get the phones for free. Since the phones would actually cost me $0.00 dollars, I agreed to upgrade to the Samsung Galaxy 4. Upon going with the Samsung Galaxy 4 and signing on to an additional two year contract, the representative told me he could save me even more money on my monthly bill if I would change from my current family plan to the new family plan which offered more features and greater data service, unlimited minutes, and unlimited text messaging. The young man told me this would reduce my monthly payments from approximately $250-$270 a month to somewhere in the high $100 to lower $200 dollar range. As any individual who suddenly finds himself or herself in a situation which creates financial hardship due to a reduction of one's monthly income from $3,300.00 per month to $1700.00 per month, I trusted the individual who sold me the service because I desperately needed lower costs in order to meet my monthly obligations. I was not given the specifics of proration of my account; I was simply led to believe changing to this new plan would be a much greater means of reducing my bill. When I receive my bill for the May to early June billing cycle, I was absolutely floored to discover the amount due to Verizon was over $600. I immediately called customer service and explained why I had called and how my understanding of what was sold to me would create a much more manageable monthly amount due. In addition, there were charges for the two new devices, and I had already received the Visa cards and applied the $100 to my account with the belief that doing so would place me at the much reduced bill. This time I spoke with a representative who was an incredibly kind and understanding representative. He was able to get permission to reduce the amount owed by $300, but somehow, I still owed a great deal more. At that time, the proration of my old plan and my new plan was revealed more fully to me, and I was beyond outraged. I did not speak harshly to this understanding young man because he told me it was not within his authorization to remove proration charges; however, he said he would speak to someone with more authority to see if the misrepresentation of the truth to me could be removed. When he returned to speak with me, he said I am sorry Mr. Sullivan, but my supervisor will not allow the removal of the proration. At that time, I asked to speak with someone with more authority, and I was told Verizon did not allow escalation to a higher level at the initiation of a customer issue; however, he could and would put in my request for a supervisor with greater authorization abilities to call me...as I specifically requested. I was told I could expect a call in the next 24 to 48 hours. Guess what? NO CALL. After a few days, I, again, used MyVerizon to see if the reductions were applied. Again, NO. I gave Verizon several days to apply the reductions, but nothing was done. I told Verizon to stop my automatic payments until we could come to some resolution regarding this misrepresentation of the truth to a customer, me! Again, I placed a call to Verizon, spoke with representative #3, explained my situation again, and again requested a call from someone in a supervisory position to call me for further discussion regarding the misrepresentation of service which I was sold. IF my primary objective in calling Verizon INITIALLY was my very REAL need to lower my cost, what ****** fail to see I am now in a situation which I creating tremendous financial stress for me. I paid $200.00 at online to make an effort to show willingness to pay, and I continued to await the call from a supervisor. Over three weeks have passed, and I still have not had anyone from Verizon make any attempt to reach out to me. I have always made my payments on time in the past; I signed up for automatic withdrawal of funds from my bank in order to make sure I was never past due, and this is the way I am treated. I will continue to pay what I can pay due to my very limited funds, and I will continue to demand a call from someone who has the authority to adjust my bill to the amount I was promised and I expect. Today, I receive my statement for June 6th to my July due date. Guess what? My bill has NO adjustments, and Verizon is still billing me over $600.00 for the current billing cycle. My issues will be addressed one way or the other because there are other options I can take against Verizon. Social Media is a powerful tool which I can use on a daily basis to warn and to guide potential Verizon customers away from the incompetence, the misrepresentation of the truth, and the multiple failures of the companies upper management to take the time to call me. This is outrageous and this is unacceptable. PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL ME! Do not promise customers a service for which I have also found to be yet another way to skirt the issues many customers' request. I am not threating anyone at Verizon; however, I am completely dedicated to following through with daily notifications to Facebook followers warning them of the manipulation of customers and the inept supervisory and upper-management's failure to follow their OWN promises to honor to its customers. I encourage any and ALL Verizon customers to flood social media with warning so corrupt polices and misrepresentations which are a DANGER to Verizon customers. We DO NOT HAVE TO REMAIN VOICELESS. As customers, we support Verizon's profits. I will not sit idly by and let this foolishness and these lies to go unaddressed. I expect to get precisely what I was promised...AND NOTHING LESS!

I understand how important it is to be on the correct tsull82751 and stay within your budget, I apologize for the problems you had while contacting us about the plan. We want to make sure we resolve your concern as this is unacceptable; if you were promised a call, you should receive it. Please follow me back and send me a Direct Message so I can review the details of this. Here are our plans http://vz.to/1qUByL2 , which is what we offer and can honor. I look forward to your message.
