Why can't i copy and paste from safari into email?

I am able to select text, copy it, but nothing happens after pasting it to the an email or notes.

Do you wait until the Copy button turns blue and then does the Paste button turns blue when you paste the text?

Why can't I copy and paste from word into websites?

Hi,
I have been accepted as a writer for 3 online publishers, but cannot copy and paste examples of my work from Word into their websites. The clipboard behaviour seems erratic - sometimes I can copy text from websites and paste into Word, sometimes not.
Can somebody help? It is vital that I am able to supply examples of my written work without having to physically re-type everything or send the examples as attachments.
Thanks,
AM

Why can't I copy and paste from google seach history with firefox 4

When I try and copy and paste from Google drop down search box nothing happens. Only happen with Firefox 4. I tried to roll back to 3.6 but every time i reboot it puts 4 back

Same issue. Running 10.10. MBP Retina 13 (Early 2013).
Previous attempts to resolve the issue
a. have reset keyboard preferences
b. have shut down and restarted twice
c. have shut down and restarted in safe mode, then restarted to clear cache
Learning: Appears to be just for browser software.
To reproduce:
1. Go into Safari or Firefox, select the URL or any text in the window, press CMD+C.
2. Go to Word/Text Edit/Evernote or open a new tab in the browser and press CMD+V

Why can't I copy and paste from Illustrator to Flash?

I have this silly but frustrating problem. I've drawn a
series of objects in Illustrator and have copied and pasted many of
them into separate frames in Flash and all of a sudden they won't
paste. There are 3 objects I'm trying to paste onto each frame and
2 of them will paste, but 1 won't. I don't have anything locked and
I have no clipping masks in Illustrator. They will copy and paste
in Illustrator. I've tried copy and pasting them separately, I've
tried opening a new Flash document and pasting, I've tried
restarting my computer. Does this sound like just another freak
thing or does anyone have any ideas? Is there some keyboard
shortcut I might have bumped in Flash to change some hidden
setting...? But then why is it just 1 of the 3 objects that won't
paste?
Any ideas would be appreciated.

I think I tried all the options and none worked. Even so, the clipboard options say "Clipboard on Quit". That sounds like it has nothing to do with between active programs.
I'm able to paste from CS5 TO CC though.

Why can't I copy and paste from my notepad?

I am trying to "copy" from my notepad and "paste" it to another site. It won't work!! Is it the other site or something I am doing wrong??

I touch the screen, then touch "select all", then touch "copy". (I'm
trying to paste it into a dating site - no laughing, please?!?! - in
reply to a message someone sent me.) I go to the site and touch
and hold my finger where I want to paste it, but when I have the option
of touching "paste", nothing pastes. Sure has me baffled!!!!????

Can no longer copy and paste from browser into illustrator - get placeholder that says "QuickTime and a decompressor are needed to see this picture"

We upgraded our iMacs to Yosemite and lost functionality on Illustrator CS4. We can save a picture to the desktop and then drag or 'place' the image to the Illustrator document, but if we drag directly from the browser or cut/copy/paste, we get a placeholder stating 'QuickTime and a decompressor are needed to see this picture'. .png, .psd, and .tiff files give a missing plugin error.

Illustrator CS4 and Yosemite aren't fully compatible. Some folks might have succeeded in getting it to run, but most have not.

Why can't I copy and paste portions of the Word document that I just converted from a PDF file?

Why can't I copy and paste the music from my iPhone on iTunes 11 to a folder in my Music Library?

Why can't I copy and paste the music from my iPhone on iTunes 11 to a folder in my Music Library? I want to have a copy of the music on iTunes so when I update to a newer version of iOS I don't lose my music. And no I didn't buy this music off iTunes and neither will I use iTunes Match.

There has never been a function to copy anything from an iPhone and paste it to a computer.
All of your media should be in iTunes already.
If it is not and was purchased from iTunes, right click on the device and select Transfer Purchases.
If the media is not in iTunes and was not purchased from iTunes, how did you get it on the device in the first place?

(v 5.5) I can no longer copy and paste from one layer to another.

I can no longer copy and paste from one layer to another in Illustrator (5.5). This started happening a few days ago. Restarting Illustrator and also my computer (Mac) didn't help. Any ideas?

To clarify: If I select an object in layer 1 using command/c or command/x then select layer 2 and press command/v the object gets pasted back into layer 1 instead of layer 2. I've tried everything I can think of and can't correct the problem.
Now the only way I can get an object from one layer to another is to drag it into another layer in the layers window.

Cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail

I cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail. Neither from using the keyboard shortcuts, or using the Menu function. I can copy and paste from other applications into Mail- but for some reason, text copied from a Word document (both in .txt and .doc formats) will not paste into an open email. Anyone else have this issue? It's a new issue. I used to be able to do this easily.

I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

No longer able to copy and paste from safari.

When trying to copy and paste from safari to Pages or Mail it continues to paste the original coppiced information. In my online school environment (java) I am not able to copy and paste from safari to other programs. I was able to do this without problem before upgradeing to ios5.

jmgoldjr,
Same issue here and I have spoke with Apple support and actually had them log on to my University website and demo'ed the issue for themselves. This was only yesterday and the response was it would take 5-6 days for upper level support to get back to me for further analysis.
What exactly is happening is when I copy text from my school website, the text is never copied to the clipboard so subsequently when I past it somewhere else it just pastes whatever exists in the clipboard from the previous use.
Did you ever resolve your issue or find a work-around? If not I will gladly update this post when I hear more. My wife's iPad on 4.3.3 is functions perfectly in the same regard. Apple agree's it is a software issue but like simply require more time to diagnose.
Your University wouldn't happen to be Phoenix would it?
Thanks.

Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?

Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?
At the moment it just appears as "Vector Smart Object" in Photoshop and I have to take another step and change the layer name.
Thank you!

Not that I know. PS doesn't care for these kinds of things and uses its own naming system.

Keynote and transfer of presentations why can't I copy and paste?

Hey Community!
     I've always been a Mac lover, but now....... I'm ready to do somethin'...... Very frustrated with update to new Mavericks and Keynote V.6. I have updated my presentations from the previous version of Keynote into the new version. I am trying to copy and paste elements from multiple seperates presentations into one presentation. When I paste the presentation into my "master", the font size changes, format changes. It's a pain in the (beep, boop, poop).
I get a message: OSX Spotlight search information was removed".
     I'm really confused. Why can't one just copy and paste from one show to another when its in the same program!?

If I understand correctly you want the title to appear on top of a later video clip so both title and clip are visible.   The problem is the "whites" background which is both making the background opaque and stopping you from pasting it above another clip. If you just select and drag the title by itself, the background will be transparent so the video clip below will show through. You should also be able to copy and paste it directly above the clip you want.
If you want different parts of the title to have a special effect you will have to edit each instance after you have made and positioned the copies.
I hope this helps - or have I misunderstood?

Can no longer copy and paste from MS apps

Could be a nightmare a-brewin'.
As webmaster for a transit company, I'm responsible for
updating the schedules for our 50+ bus routes three times a year on
piercetransit.org. So I opened one up today in Dreamweaver 8 and
launched our brand new version of Excel Mac 2008 to copy and paste
schedule times into a web page. And it didn't work!
Up til now, Excel has been an irreplaceable tool for
converting data from our weird, 70's-era bus scheduling software
[Hastus] into something Dreamweaver can understand. But no matter
how much I fiddle with options under Copy and Paste preferences,
today I got nothing -- literally. It's as if there's nothing
whatsoever on the clipboard. Earlier, I'd noticed the same problem
with our new version of Word, but since I rarely paste anything
into Dreamweaver from Word, I was only mildly irked by it. Given
the thousands of bus arrival and departure times on our site,
however, the inability to insert data from Excel into DMW would be
a disaster!
Am I just missing something, or is this some kind of "How
dare you use anything other than one of OUR products?"
gotcha from Evilco?

This has been an issue with Office 2008 for Mac even with the
CS3 version of Dreamweaver. I believe the only workaround is to do
a paste special as text only but you will lose formatting this way.
You can do a search on this forum also for other suggestions
because I didn't follow the old topics before because I didn't
upgrade till recently, but there might be some other tricks around
here.

How do I copy and paste from Word into Adobe Photoshop Elements 13

using Windows 7 Professional SP1, Microsoft Office 365 (Office 2013).
I can copy the text within a word document, without a problem.
However, the paste options are greyed out and "Ctrl"+"V" does not work.
Am I missing something, as I can't work out how to copy the text from word, to use as a basis for my photo shop document.

Hey, guys. I am a complete noob to Elements 13. I need to get something done relatively quickly and I need to learn how to copy and paste from a Word document. How do I do this?
Copy the text in WORD to place it on the clipboard
Open PSE in Expert tab
Open your picture file
Get the type tool out of the tool box, click an insertion point
Go to Edit>paste
You should see two layers in the layers palette: background layer, and layer with the text.
