Create a new, separate login on your Mac, log into it, and see if the problem persists in that context.  Post the results here; whether the problem is present in that login, or if it's specific to your current login.

  • The bar where the html is suppose to show, the new feature of firefox 4 doesn't seem to show it, what do i do when i want to copy and paste it without loading or refreshing the page again?

    i am having problems with not seeing the HTML on the bar because i always look and copy and paste it on things like Facebook and stuff. but now with this new feature, i cannot see or copy or paste it.

    You can find the Copy, Paste, and Cut buttons in the Edit menu and the Edit sub menu in the Firefox menu.<br />
    If you need access to the menu bar then press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    You can also find them as toolbar buttons in the toolbar palette in the Customize window and drag them on a toolbar.

  • Does the last updated backup in Time Machine have all my files for "standard" file copy? (i want to copy and paste files to another computer that doesn't have TM)

    My personal Macbook pro died, but I did have a Time Machine backup. I have a new iMac that I would like to use as a family computer. I would like to transfer some files to the new computer (and set-up a new Time Machine backup), but archive the remainder on a non-TM drive. I was planning to:
    1. File copy my last backup folder from my old TM drive to the new computer
    2. Copy (and then delete) the files I want to archive on another HD drive
    3. Wipe clean my current TM drive
    4. Set-up TM on my new computer
    Is this a good way to proceed?
    Is copying the last backup folder (vs. all backup folders) enough to move my files over?
    Any better approaches appreciated!

    I suggest you visit MicroCenter and go to there Apple section and ask one of there guys if they are still offering the 2 terabyte Backup For the iMac, Mine was only $100.00.
    So the iMac has Time machine plus the USB 2 Terabyte Backup for less than your $130.00

  • Error message when I try to copy and paste using mouse

    I am taking college classes online. When I try to copy and paste something using the right mouse button I keep getting error messages that something is blocked on my browser, and cannot copy and paste. When I use ctrl A ctrl C ctrl V everything works fine, but I don't always want to copy everything. How can I fix this because its starting to be a hassle.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • I want to copy and past 58 links from my IE favorites into the bookmarks toolbar...not one at a time. where's the folder i can copy these too?

    i want to copy and past 58 links from my IE favorites into the bookmarks toolbar...not one at a time. where's the folder i can copy these too?
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == i want to copy and past 58 links from my IE favorites into the bookmarks toolbar...not one at a time. where's the folder i can copy these too?

    Firefox doesn't store the bookmarks as separate files in a folder, but uses a sqlite database file with the name places.sqlite.
    You will have to export those favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.
    Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"

  • I want to copy and paste a long list of phone numbers into the 'to' field of messages. Ideas?

    I want to copy and paste a long list of phone numbers into the 'to' field of messaging. All it does is become one long number instead. I have even tried commas in between. Any ideas? (They are NOT contacts)

    That's not how iMessage was designed to work.  It works with your contacts.  You start typing a phone number or email address and you'll se a list of hint from auto-complete.  After you select a suggestion, start typing another address.  If the addresses you want are not in your contacts, you'll need to enter each of them manually.

  • Keywords not transferring with pictures on copy and paste to a new computer. In lightroom on old computer but not in lightroom on new computer? Not all pictures, but a lot of the new ones.

    Keywords not transferring with pictures on copy and paste to a new computer. The keywords are in lightroom on old computer but not in lightroom on new computer? Not all pictures, but a lot of the new ones.

    I actually found under  EDIT then Catalog settings / then metadata that the automatic write changes to XMP had been unchecked. Once I check this, it updated and connected all the keywords to the pictures. Now when I copy and paste the keywords show up as I can now detect them in Adobe bridge when before I couldn't see them even though they were in lightroom. . Thanks for your input.

  • I want to copy and paste a chart from an email into Pages on MAC. I only get the text.  Not the chart.

    I recieved an email that included a chart that I want to put in a document.  When I copy and paste the chart in Pages it only shows the text without the chart.  This shouldnt be too hard but I have no idea why it will not copy this in the format or image that it is.  Thanks.

    This is on OSX 10.9.3 MAC Pro
    Pages version 5.2
    I'm sorry I do not know how to determine the format of the chart.  It was sent to me in the body of an email...it was not an attachment.  Is there a way for me to find that out?
    I actually tried both ways...I copied just the chart & then I copied the whole body of the email that included the chart.  Either way, the chart-lines/box did not paste.  Only the text.
    Thanks Peter!  I'm somewhat new with MAC

  • I want to copy and paste selections of music?

    hi there, several years ago I just used sound edit to simply copy and paste selections of music and then put them together.
    Today all the programs I find are far too complicated for what I want.
    any suggestions for a program that will let me just select a section of music and paste it into a new file?
    thanx

    You can import songs from iTunes into GarageBand where you can cut, copy edit and what not.

    There is no paste method that will remove a line/paragraph break from copy/paste data - you need to remove the line/paragraph break before or after pasting.
