Why can't I cut/paste contact info into various contact fields?  This worked before Mt Loin.

Before Mt Loin I could cut/paste into various fields in Contacts, ie:  phone numbers,  mailing addresses, etc. Now I am force to manual update contacts.

Sorry I should have said that we had tried other CHM files on the PCs with the same result. For instance on PCs where the paste did not activate the List Topics button, this was the behaviour on all CHMs. Likewise on the PCs where the button was activated it was the same on all PCs. So the problem is PC related.
Rick. A space after the paste does activate the button. Likewise a backspace so you are probably right. No sure this will meet the exacting standards of our test lead. If it doesn't, maybe I'll print out a copy of our largest help file in 42pt typeface and beat him around the head with it. BTW I love your slight on searches. I'd better not get you started with Air Help then .

  • Why can I no longer tether my ipad to my 3gs phone, it worked before the OS upgrade to 5.

    I have a 3gs Iphone that I was using to tether my Ipad to.  Worked well until I upgrade to the new operating system on both devices. Now when I try and pair them I get an message saying the device is not supported.  I can still tether my phone to my laptop with no problems.

  • 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 cut and paste email addresses when sending documents?

    Why can't I cut and paste email addresses when sending files? I have to type them in each time...And it doesn't remember them for the future, as SendNow did.
    Also, it seems that the message I type in is not kept, as it was with SendNow?
    Thanks!

    Hi drlaura,
    You're correct on both counts--these features work differently Adobe Send than they do in Adobe SendNow.
    If you're sending files from Adobe Reader, you can access your local Address Book, which should make entering email addresses easier. Please see: I’m trying to send a file from Adobe Reader, but I can’t access my computer’s address book to find my contacts. Why not?
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara

    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.

    If you are trying to access them on your phone, make sure you are signed into your iCloud account and have Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On.  If you are trying to access them online, go to https://www.icloud.com on your computer, log into your account and open Contacts.

  • Why can't Adobe add the feature of viewing focus points? This is an obvious,  common sense feature that Adobe Engineers must understrand how to do, No?

    Why can't Adobe add the feature of viewing focus points? This is an obvious,  common sense feature that Adobe Engineers must understrand how to do, No?
    I've seen this requested in several past Lightroom versions.
    Is Adobe not addressing this basic feature for a reason?, I mean, even Aperture has this feature, it can't be that hard to add? Can it?
    Maybe Adobe isn't reading the feature request?

    Honestly, I am hardly qualified to even guess - there are tons of bugs reported that would be easy to fix, but aren't, features that would be useful and easy enough to implement, but aren't. Things like focus points which seem like a no brainer but are never implemented - your guess is as good as mine..
    But to be clear: focus points are different for different cameras, and are stored in proprietary metadata. - not impossible to get at, obviously, but requires some programming/maintenance..
    Worth noting: Apple is shutting down their Aperture business. Yeah, they support focus points and all kinds of good stuff, but I guess Aperture isn't a real money-maker for them (lotsa maintenance work, but not a lot of revenue) - relatively small market.
    Adobe has been working on Revel, and Lightroom Mobile.., instead of focus points (and bug fixes, and...) - my guess: that's where the money is, or where they think it is.
    Cheers,

    Thank you for replying. Unfortunately, I already did all of these things. As you can see from the below screenshot, the language is already set. Also, this screenshot was taken in Safe Mode, so NoScript is not enabled. About:accounts still says I need to enable cookies for some reason. So, this solution didn't work....

    No one here can know why for certain, and yes.
    If no change after resetting network settings on your iPhone and after restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem with the wireless card or something else.

  • Why can't I cut and paste photos between project?

    I recently made the transition from iPhoto to Aperture. One of the weird things is that I can't cut and paste photos between projects. In iPhoto this is an easy way to organize your projects if some photos are in the wrong place.
    You also can't split projects, in iPhoto you can do this easily. Say, if two day's photos ending being in the same project, in iPhoto there's a button that you split them in the middle. Is there something like this in Aperture?

    Copy and Paste:
    In iPhoto "copy and paste" was possible, because it was not possible in the early versions, to see both projects at the same time, the one you are moving from, and the one you are moving to.
    In Aperture you simply drag from the source project to the destination project to move image versions around. Also, it is easy to see more than one project in the Browser at the same time, see: Aperture 3 User Manual: Working with Two or More Browsers Open
    To drag to another project, select the images in the project, then drag to the other project in the source list, for example:
    To split a project, select the images you want to have in the split part, then create a new project from these images: Enable the check mark "Move selected items to new project". This will split the original project.
