Why can't I copy/paste an image to Yahoo! Mail on Firefox?

It's quite odd.
From any other browser I'm able to copy and paste an image straight into the e-mail body of Yahoo! Mail (meaning, not an attachement but actually pasting the image), but not from Firefox. Upon doing some research on-line, many a folk seem to agree that said feature is not supported by Firefox. Is this true? If so, why?
Thanks!

Not sure if this is the same thing, but I've noticed a strange bug between Office for Mac 2007 and OS X 10.8, which is that often I have to hit 'command-C' to copy several times repeatedly before anything is actually copied to the clipboard.
I haven't spent time tracking down what causes that, but give it a try and see if the paste function works after doing that. Basically, when you hit 'command-C' in Word you should see the 'Edit' menu in the menubar flash blue briefly as you do it. If it doesn't, then it's not copied.
Like I said, I find hitting 'command-C' rapidly a few times in succession normally does the trick.

  • Why can I not copy paste anymore in Dreamweaver CC?

    Help! Why can I not copy paste anymore in Dreamweaver CC? It was working fine a week ago, did not install or delete anything in this time, the options from the pull down menu are ghosted, ctrl+c ctrl+v doesnt work. I could use paste special from the pull down menu and did.  Paste special worked once, now is ghosted too.

    Try renaming the Configuration folder to Configuration-backup.
    The folder can be found as in http://www.dmxzone.com/go/16740/clearing-dreamweaver-s-cache/

  • Why can't I copy/paste tables correctly? (CS6)

    Sorry for having to ask such a basic question. I am new to ID.
    I am following this tutorial:
    http://tastytuts.com/video/managing-formatting-text-tables-in-adobe-indesign
    At 25:10, he creates a 2x16 table into which he pastes a table from iWork Pages. He does this by:
    - Selecting the entire table in Pages
    - Selecting every cell in the blank ID table
    - Copying the Pages table and hitting paste in ID
    The Pages table is mapped, cell for cell, to the ID table.
    However, when I try this method, only the lefthand side of the ID table is populated. Every Pages cell ends up in the left hand column (the number of rows increases to accommodate them) and the right hand side is left empty.
    What am I doing wrong? Is this the standard way of copying/pasting tables? Is there a better method?

    Arghh. As far as I can tell, I'm doing all that. It just won't paste properly.
    Here's what I do:
    Using type tool, I click on the destination frame.
    I insert the 2x16 table.
    I select all the cells in Pages and copy them.
    Using type tool, I select all the cells in ID.
    I hit paste.
    The only thing I can think of it that ID is expecting the table in one format, and Pages is copying the table to the clipboard in another format. 

  • Why can't I copy/paste album art in latest version of iTunes?

    I have the latest version of iTunes and I am unable to copy/paste album art from the internet.  Whenever I try to copy/paste album art from Amazon, it just displays a blank box.  I was able to copy/paste album art just fine before the last iTunes update.  Any suggestions?

    Artwork seems to cut/paste in my situation, but does not "attach" to the file so the icons appear as generic in a list view or when viewing the file using "get info".  Also noticed that cut and paste does not work for text in the comments window either, especially if the copied text contains style changes (underlines, etc.) or hyperlinks.
    Also, if importing AIFF files into iTunes, the song that plays upon import (usually the highest numbered track) will not accept artwork no matter what, unless you convert to another file type (like AAC).  The only workaround is to make a copy of the last song, rename it with a higher track number, then import both at the same time.  Then just delete the higher numbered track.  This has been an on again/off again problem for at least the last 3-4 versions of iTunes.

  • Why can I use copy/paste feature with Firefox 4.0 beta 9?

    I am unable to use the copy/paste feature from any website opened when using the Firefox 4.0 beta 9

    Make sure you have the latest version of IDM (version 6.04), based on comments elsewhere that version should support Firefox 4.

  • Why can't I link to an image in Yahoo! mail options Signature? It works in Explorer.

    I use the Yahoo! Mail options Signature to insert a signature every time I e-mail. I have inserted my logo and cannot get the link to work when you browse over the logo.
    I could not even copy the link in Firefox, I had to do it in Explorer. This may be the problem.
    Why can't Firefox allow images to copy in the Yahoo! signature area and link to them?
    I am going to be forced to go back to using Explorer since I want everyone to be able to simply click on the image to link to my site.
    HELP!

    I just did a test in google chrome. I can not create a folder under google chrome, but I can create a folder under Internet Explorer.

  • Why Can't I Copy/Paste Into Dreamweaver CS6?

    I am running Windows XP Professional w/ Service Pack 3 and I have Dreamweaver CS4 and CS6 installed. 
    When I work on sites in CS6 I find I'm having issues with copying and pasting.  It doesn't matter where I try to pull the information from, it won't paste into Dreamweaver CS6 (code view or design view). It seems to work fine in CS4, as well as every other application I try to paste to.
    I don't have CS4 and CS6 open simultaneously. I just kept CS4 because it had a bunch of info on other sites I need to transfer over, as well as testing CS6 before fully commiting to it.
    Any insight or help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have this problem, too, and it's driving me f'n crazy, too!
    While I'm happy other forum members are offering to help by asking diagnostic questions, why grill us over what we have installed and what we can and can't do? This is a problem shared by many users. Why is the burden of "proof' on our shoulders? No offense meant, Nancy and Murray, but are you going to be able to resolve this bug? Unless you work at Adobe, I doubt it! It's not something WE are doing.
    I've been using Dreamweaver since version 1.0 in 1998 or so, and I've never had this problem. It seems like something that should be pretty basic to identify and fix. Shouldn't Adobe be on these forums asking what programs we have installed on our machines and what we can and can't do? What help is it if a fellow forum member asks these questions? Adobe is a major corporation that should be listening to our issues, especially if we're forking over $600 PER YEAR for Creative Cloud!
    This problem needs to be fixed, and it needs to be fixed now. I can't work like this!

  • Why can't I copy, paste or save as text?

    I use a Mac v. 10.6.7 and Adobe reader v. 9.4.4. In my job, I get sent a variety of documents in Adobe. Sometimes I can copy and paste text and sometimes I can't. What is the secret that will allow me to quickly and reliably copy and paste text from an Adobe document to a Word document? And I've tried saving Adobe documents as text and never, not once, has the document been saved as text. The new Adobe file always is just blank. Thank you for your help.

    For the most part yes.
    There are some idiosyncrasies with using OCR so unless you are creating the scans themselves and can control how they are being created, you may run across some that don't work easily.
    I would suggest installing the trial version of Acrobat. It's good for 30 days and by then you should have a good idea whether it will work for your situation.

  • I can't cut and paste any images into apple mail

    I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet.
    I am using a gmail pop account and firefox as my primary browser. It took me a few times to figure this out as the image appears to be attached in my mail, but is removed when I send, such that if I have text and an image in an email the recipient receives only the text. Before I hit send I can see both the text and the image.
    I have tried starting again in safe mode and repairing permissions. That has not helped. I can login to my gmail regularly and cut and paste images with no problem.
    This is exceptionally frustrating.

    Hello.  In 2012 you answered a query about the following problem:
    "I have had my MacBook Pro for over three years now, without much trouble, but recently I've been unable to send images that I have cut and pasted into Apple mail. I can attach an image that I have saved in my photos and it will send but I can not send an image that I have cut and pasted from the internet."
    This problem started with me this morning and it does not happen when I open a test account.  The thread stops after you asked if it occurs in the test account, did you ever find a solution to this issue?  I am using mac mail 3.6 on system 10.5.8.
    I hope you receive this, I have never posted in one of these forums.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dave

  • Why can't I copy an image or vector from Illustrator CC and paste to Fireworks CS6?

    Why can't I copy an image or vector from Illustrator CC and paste to Fireworks CS6? This was possible with Illustrator CS6. I know they are different versions but since there is no Fireworks CC, is there a fix update???

    Yes, other users have complained about that. Unfortunately, Fireworks' development was halted a year ago, and I would be surprised if Adobe spends any money or time to fix bugs and interoperability issues in Fireworks. I would not expect any real updates or fixes.
    Tough to swallow, but FW is dead in the water and EOL'ed.

    Assuming Windows...
    You can, assuming you select around the pixels you want to copy, and the selected region isn't too large.
    There are a variety of ways you can get the copy operation wrong, e.g., by not having the proper layer selected or similar.
    And there's a secret setting to enable Photoshop to export its clipboard no matter how large the selected pixel set is.  Note the setting I have bolded below.  Keep in mind that by making this setting you may be subjecting all the software on your computer that registers to receive clipboard data to datasets that are larger than it might expect.  In other words, there could be a downside.  That being said, I haven't had any problems on my Windows 8 system.

  • 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?

  • How to copy/paste texts/images from webpages in iBooks Author?

    Hi,
    I want to copy/paste text/image contents from webpages with iBooks Author, somehow images can't be copied, only texts can be copied with copy/paste editing. Wonder if there are any ways to include images with simple copy/paste?
    Tried to search iBooks Author help, could not find answers. Please help.
    Thanks

    Perhaps the people who spent a lot of time and money to produce the websites.....and who own copyright ...don't want anybody using their work without payment or credits. Have you contacted the websites owners to ask permission? 
    IF any person(s)  use anything from websites without permission apart from being to lazy to email to request permission....could face a legal action if and when the sites owners fins out. 
    There is another her misconception that "free" websites and content on "social media" such as the dreaded FaceBook....can be used without consequence. Almost all "free" websites are common licence material - which requires permission and those who give permission do so only for personal or none profit reproduction.
    i Use a blocking script on my websites which apart from preventing a right click...those who try are whisked off  my website to the the UK copyright website page which explains my rights! 
    You may wish to check out your iBooks contract with Apple and read their warnings on use of others copyright material. 
    You could ..and should contact the websites...explain what you want to use and why....and ask them if they can supply media.

  • How to copy & paste an image into a new Pages document?

    With the latest version of Pages, you cannot copy & paste an image from iPhoto or the web any more.
    Is there an easy alternative?
    Using the toolbar alternative "Media" takes ages.
    Why did Apple remove this great feature of Pages????

    Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
