  • Y at - he shortcut keyboard to take a screenshot and at the same time put in the copy/paste buffer

    My question: is it keyboard shortcut to take a screenshot and simultaneously place the content in the copy/paste buffer, rather than a file?

    If not, is there a shortcut miss me.

    My current approach is Cmd-Shift-3 or Cmd + Shift + 4, take the screenshot, open in preview, select all, copy, return to remove Word, paste, the screenshot file, then repeat. There must be a more efficient way to work.

    Thank you

  • Copy / paste does not not under Vista

    I use the piece of garbage called Vista Home edition.

    Microsoft can't even their own system to work. They may not even recognize their OWN identification numbers when I go to get help.

    Copy and paste it on Vista Home edition does not work and has not worked for a long time.

    Any ideas how to operate?

  • Create shortcut folders does not work all the time?

    I needed to create multiple folders shortcut for a project that needs them often, and I just couldn't. Still, I remember in the past and one of them actually have on my desktop for my photos.

    It appeared that in folder trees if I right click on the folder you want, "create shortcut" Option did not show upward! the same with the folders on my desktop would be! If rich of this conclusion, I copied my "recalcitrant" folder on the desktop (had to cut short the copy because it was great!), but got a copy of it on my desk (with only what he had time can be fully copied!). Then right clicked on it and the shortcut option appeared! I re routed the path to the original on my D drive folder and it works well.
    Obviously something does not work as it should and I don't have to do all this, so I hope someone knows the answer to this problem. Maybe a stupid option that must be checked on somewhere...

    I don't know if this is your question or not because it should either work, or not at all. The first fix, here is a zip file which will certainly not hurt to try. It's my answer for those who have reported lately that the new folder option did not work in Win7 canned.

    Do, or you have installed Chrome? It appears that an update of Chrome, (mid April 2013), is responsible. Here are two patches.

    Since the upgrade to 10.11.6 the functions copy / paste don't work, either by the keyboard shortcuts or the Edit menu.

    Then you have a bad installation.

    Try these in order to test your system after each see if it is back to normal:

    1. a. reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

    b. Macs with Intel processors: reset of the controller (SMC) system management

  • Why can't access Web sites when I copy & paste or type the address in the address window - no answer - but I CAN visit Web sites non - Firefox only?

    I can access websites through bookmarks, most visited, history or if I click on links in Google, etc. If I click on a link directly, it will open. If I copy & paste or type a link into the address window, click Enter or on the arrow "go to" in the address window - no response. I tried several Web sites. This seems to have happened since the 29th of Firefox upgrade. This only happens with Firefox.

    You can try to start Firefox in Mode safe to see if Firefox works correctly without error? You can start Firefox in Mode safe below:

    • Windows/Mac: choose Help > restart with disabled modules
    • Linux: run firefox-safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole

    If Firefox opens fine with no problems, it is probably one of your extensions that is causing the problem. You can reactivate your modules one by one until you find the one that is causing the problem to be re-activated.

    This might or might not be relevant to your question, but it seems that user.js is currently active in Firefox. The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.

    You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-# .js files and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox. You can get the profile below:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory > see folder

    or

    • Go to Subject: support , and then click view the folder next to the profile directory.
  • I can't copy paste over my e-mail and Web sites

    I can't more copy paste my e-mail or Web sites. And I tried windows shortcuts and they do not work or the other.

    Are able to use you do right click on windows, is exemplary and previous work anywhere else in windows.

    If they do not then work its some malware on windows, if they are working correctly then try to start firefox in safe mode. Gives detailed instructions to start in safe mode below.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • Impossible to copy/paste or drag/drop of files. Cannot copy and paste text, either.

    The operating system would prohibit me files copy/paste and drag and drop files text copy and paste all of a sudden. No error message; the right operating system does not respond to my 'stick' and 'slide' actions; 'paste' is grayed out in the menu. ('Copy' seems to be black if I remember correctly).

    Need to reboot back to normal. A reboot about once a day because of this problem frequently.

    P.S. The computer seems to be slower than usual these days. kernal_task and Google Chrome Helper often go beyond 100% of the CPU in the activity monitor. My MBP has a 480 GB SSD (with use of 180 GB).

  • Why I have to insert the RESUME of someone else in my profile to change my settings to copy paste?

    I want to just use the copy/paste with my mouse.
    Why you don't get just a gimbal in Firefox?
    Why should I enter the resume of someone else in my user.js file?
    It makes even LESS sense.

    For Firefox:

       Quit Firefox. If you have Quick Launch running (in Windows, an icon in the toolbar), quit that too.
       Find your Firefox profile directory.
       Open the user.js file from that directory in a text editor. If there's no user.js file, create one.
       Add these lines to user.js:
    
      [edit: removed personal information]
    

    Note: Preference is site as specific Protocol. For example:

    user_pref ("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.mozilla.org")

    is it not the same thing as:

    user_pref ("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "https://www.mozilla.org")

    This is because the first uses the HTTP protocol, while the second uses the HTTPS protocol.

    If you want to allow more than one URL to access to the paste operation, separate the URL by a space. For example:

    user_pref ("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites",

    "https://www.mozilla.org https://developer.mozilla.org")

    Hey woodenuknow

    I found this page you were talking about with instructions to put someone of another recovery in your user.js file. This page has been hacked by someone who wants to stir up trouble. Sorry for the inconvenience. I'm trying to find someone to fix this page and delete take it back.

    And for anyone of another reading, "Reset Firefox" will not solve this problem. It is a problem that happens on some sites using some text editors.

    And I wondered where one of these sites gave you the link to instructions pirate user.js pasting error page that you got?

    On the WHMCS, Guru, FreshDesk, ActivCollab, Vworker sites and independent, I am not able to register accounts with each of them. But for a site that gives the error message, I'll try to make an account. As I would like to see what this error message. I think that society has done a good job doing that b/c of many sites does give any kind of warning or error for the problem of copy / paste, so I would like to see how they have implemented. Thank you.

  • Copy-paste an object of front panel to the same xy location

    Hello

    Just a practical question, but I would need very often this kind of functionality:

    How can I copy - paste an object of front panel to the same location? Lets consider the I have a TAB container, and on the first page, I have a chart. I would like to make a graph even on the second page tab, but at the same XY location compared to the TAB container.

    Thank you very much!

    HM, I just realized, there is an option 'double page' for the TAB containers and it's magic for me, creates the exact copy of all the objects

  • Local variables just "copy-paste".

    Hello

    Is it possible to copy - paste a chart area containing local variables without creating new objects on the interface?

    Thank you

    Gregory

    Use the command + drag instead of copy and paste.

    1. Use your mouse to select the items to copy.
    2. Hold down the control (Ctrl) key and drag the items to the new location.

    If you also hold down the SHIFT key while dragging - items remain aligned.

    To move items to another diagram, you've even pressed the SHIFT key.

  • Can not copy / paste from one folder to another.

    Just recently, I can't copy and paste a word document to a different folder, and my office is locked and can not move icons. I've unlocked settings, also tried to reconstruct the dates. Running advanced system of care. Creates a new user. Nothing works. My computer as most of the people is a tool and not used to play games, it's time to implement a different system, that is to say Windows 7 or wait 8. I honestly thought that XP Pro has been very stable and I have all the important issues in over 5 years, and in this case. This is the result of an update?

    Hello

    1 did you change your computer, after which the issue started?
    2. the issue of copy paste only occurs with Microsoft Word?

    Windows XP is still very stable and reliable. If you want to upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8, you can do it. It's a good idea to upgrade your operating system to get used to a new User Interface that would give you a new experience altogether.

    Follow these steps and check if the problem persists.

    Step 1:

    Test the issue in safe mode.

    Step 2:

    If the problem does not occur in safe mode, I suspect that there is a conflict of software of third party causing the problem to occur. I suggest that you start your computer in a clean boot State in order to eliminate conflicts of third party software.
