Cut and paste

I cut and pasted a file from one hard disk to another.   The file was pasted successfully to the destination drive... but without its content.   A way to recover these files?    Windows XP

The files might just be hidden.  Go to control Panel > Folder Options > view and select Show hidden files and folders .

BTW, I always recommend using copy and paste, not cut and paste when moving from one drive to another.  You can delete the original files when you do not know that the copy was successful.

  • How to cut and paste the image of the body of the received email

    I'm trying to cut and paste an image included in the bottom of an email and insert it into a Word document so that you can size and print. I can highlight, cut it with Ctrl C, paste it into the document Word with Ctrl V, but the image doesn't show, although the picture frame appears when I click on the place where the photo was pasted. Framework, but empty, no image. Any thoughts?

    Thanks to everyone for their help.

    The problem has been resolved - to try and finally understand everything.

    If you encounter this problem, it is perhaps because, unless you know the file format of the inserted picture, programs can not figure it out for you. Place your cursor on the image, right click and save the image under a .jpeg instead of simply copying. Then work with the file .jpeg in any photo management program you use normally - or even insert it in Word.

  • I created a file user.js to cut and paste. The site I'm making this function is a "moodle" and so the URL change ++. Is there a way I can allow cut and paste, which is not specific URL?

    I see that I can enter multiple URLS in the user.js file, but I can't know all the possible URLS I use because of the Moodle application. Is there an easier way for me to cut and paste?

  • After editing user (user.js) rich text editing profile however does not cut and paste

    I'm using the TinyMCE wysiwyg web site editor and have added the following to my user.js file:

    user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://office.iris.ac");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.mozilla.org");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");

    My web address is http://office.iris.ac:8080 / Drupal , but still, even if it does not cut and paste. The Mozilla rich text demo works.

    I use FF 3.6.10

    It does not work.

    You can have a degree of capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites pref, so in your case, the second line with http://www.mozilla.org will replace the first with the office.iris.ac server.

    If you need more than one URL, separate by spaces, but in your case, you don't need the mozilla site that is indicated as an example.

    user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://office.iris.ac");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");

  • Cut and paste tabs and "returns"?

    Hello

    In an earlier version of pages, I could copy and paste tabs, as well as breaks line or "go back". I use this feature a lot then the processor who ends up going inside a spreadsheet and visca versca.

    In the most recent version of Pages, I think that cutting and pasting of the tabs is available in all simply copy the tab character and paste it into the Find/Replace dialog box. (And a shortcut of 'Option-tab' inserts a "tab" character in the Find/Replace dialog box.)

    But cut and paste newlines or line returns no longer seem to work (or fact is old keyboard shortcut 'Option-return'.  This feature has gone completely outside, or modified or?

    Anyone know?

    Thank you!

    Rick

    Just tested the latest version of the Pages.

    Option-tab peut be used in the dialog box search to search for a TAB

    I can select a tab in the text and paste it into the search box and it is as expected

    Shift + return produced a line break, and this also can be copied and pasted into the Find dialog box

    I can't locate 'Find & Replace"of carriage return anyway, page break, column etc. break section break that had Pages 09... most have disappeared when Apple introduced 5 Pages.

  • Service existing AppleScript Automator to cut and paste the same image in a conversation of Messages

    New to Applescript/Automator-

    I want to be able to have a simple shot that will allow me to paste a particular image in a conversation in Messages... It is the same image that I want every time. But I want to avoid having to go to Messages, search for image copy and then turn over Messages to paste.  I didn't need the script to automatically display the message, simply cut and paste of the pictures folder so that I am in Messages in a new message to the existing message thread (it makes no sense to me). Be good for this service in the Messages and be available to a hot key combination!

    You might want to try the following script to copy and paste an image in the images folder. To launch the script with a quick access key, use FastScripts (free up to 10 keyboard shortcuts).

    value thePicture to (path to the folder images as text) & thePictureName as alias

  • keep the formula when cut and paste cells

    I have a workbook for card games where we're going to turn seats/tables throughout the day (6 moves in total).  I have reproduced the a sheet that has cells with formulas to pick up names among the other sheets in the workbook.  When I cut and paste them, for my seat of update, the formula of data changes.  IE:, journal name game 1, cell #A1 said = name cell A2 of sheet summary and so on.  When I cut and paste, it will change this formula in the correct sheet but bad cell.  Why is she even change any link to the other sheet?

    Thank you.

    It is difficult to follow what you describe here.  By workbook (not a term of numbers), it seems you're saying that worksheet. But in numbers, you can't have a sheet that contains cells. The cells are take-away in an array of numbers that is located on a sheet.  You can duplicate a table of numbers and you can also duplicate a sheet of numbers, but it is not too clear what you're doing.  How about providing a screenshot of what happens?

  • Images lost during operations cut-and - paste from memory card on my computer

    I was moving pictures on my memory card in a folder in "my pictures" using the cut and paste.
    on my memory card and when I plugged my camera into my computer, the photos were in different files as the memory card has been put in two cameras; a samsung and a cannon. Some of the pictures so share the same name of the image.
    When I cut and pasted the warning came to say something in the sense of 'element already exists, replace the existing file' I clicked on "Yes to all" without thinking about it, and now I've lost the almost all of a folder of photos! And because they were cut out of the memory of the device, I can't think of a way to get back them.
    I tried many searches in my files to try and find / recover, but I have no idea where they would have gone!
    They are pictures of vacation and I really want to try to recover, any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Cut and paste in Windows Explorer is * copy * instead of move.

    In Solution Explorer, if I try to move files and folders using cut and paste (or ctrl-x and then Ctrl + v, or 'cut' and then 'paste' from the Edit menu), they were copied instead of moved. It started just past recently after years of using this technique.

    If I right click, drag and select 'Go here', he moves correctly.

    Any ideas? Very much appreciated.

    See you soon,.
    Michael

    Hello Michael,

    Your computer is connected to a domain?

    This can happen when there is rdpclip.exe service runs as part of a domain network. You can try to stop the rdpclip.exe service to see if that helps.

    Another thing that can help is to make sure that you have installed Windows XP Service Pack 3.

    Hope that helps, I look forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you guys

    The guy

    Hello

    Thank God the photos had not gone, apparently the card reader is spoiled. My husband has put the SD card in the camera and the photos are there (except those that have been copied on the desktop, the files I selected but not yet copied on the desktop, because the process is stopped in the middle are still in SD card).

    Kind regards

  • Disable the copy or cut and paste completely

    From: kend_beledm

    Is it possible on a windows-based systems to disable or completely disable the copy and paste function, any type of program is displayed on the screen.

    De : Andrew McLaren

    You can do this for Windows as a whole (and even if you did, users could simply use a print-screen instead, limited data). But you can do it for specific applications: essential technology is Windows Rights Management Services ("RMS"). See http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/rightsmgmt/default.mspx

    If you have an application that can participate in a RMS infrastructure, you can indeed set up policies to selectively allow or prevent the n-cut-paste, etc., to users and groups. or refuse to cut-and - paste altogether in this application.

    Microsoft Office is the application most common which can be plugged into RMS. Once it is all together, it is extremely effective... you really want to cut-and - paste privileged information from this juicy email or a Word document. but hell, you just can not! You also cannot transfer protected emails, etc..

    There is a public SDK, so anyone can write an application that subscribes to RMS and restrict access to the application data. However if you have a legacy application (IE, an already existing application) which you can not re-engineer, so I think you're a bit stuck. You may need to address the issue of security in a non computer perspective, such as human resources policies, etc.

    You can also take a look at the Software Restriction policies ("PRS"), a similar security Windows feature. SRP will not stop users to cut and paste, as such; but it lets you create a very controlled environment. You can stop the users do a lot of things you don't want to do. See:

    http://technet2.Microsoft.com/windowsvista/en/library/0d504b1d-e57c-4DCC-8A5A-8d1da9e4d1fe1033.mspx?mfr=true

    It will be useful,
