Copy/Paste and 'Quote'

[mike Meehan]

For some reason I am unable to copy/paste, or copy a post by using the quote function on this particular computer on NW site - it works with other computers and I can copy paste using other programs, for example  'Word' -

 

Any Ideas?

Have you tried clearing your browser cache - usually clears most quirks.

"Clearing your browser cache" This'll do the job http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download. download the free one, it's so easy to use

Cleared my browser - that must have done something because I had to log on again - but the problem still exists - it's not the end of the world though I can still do these things on lap top - the problem is with a PC I keep in France.

That reminds me, Mike: how does one use the multiquote function?

Click the [MultiQuote] button in one or more quotes and the popup box at the bottom is the one to finally click on to include the selected quotes [Reply to # quoted posts]

I clicked the multi quotes and ended up with an English Language version of the small ads at Montpellier

Click "Quote" for the first post you want to quote, and then click "multiquote" for subsequent ones. Seems to work for me, although I haven't got a clue how.

Dancer, I tried your 'Piriform' - it ain't made no difference. - Still baffled.

Q... Do you remember when it worked! If so, the only thing i can suggest is Recover you PC back to an earlier point in time, ie 'before you had the problem'

When i've had niggly problems with mine, 9 times out of 10 this cures it.

Click on your Windows icon ( bottom right) Then type into the search (Recovery Manager)

click on advanced opitions then (earlier point in time) then select date (from more than 5 days earlier)

This won't affect any of your personal files ...Good luck
