    copy paste shortcuts not working


    Hey,

    Recently my copy paste shortcuts stopped working, but only on my desktop and in the file explorer. In all other apps they are still working and when I rightclick on a file, then I can copy it manually and it is working. But the shprtcuts doesnt even show up right next to the options, like they did before. I dont know what I did, so that it isnt working anymore.

    Hope you can help me, Thanks.
    Greets Carlos.

    :)

    copy paste shortcuts not working

    E71x copy/paste keyboard shortcuts?

    OK, here's what I get for those key combos:

    • fn, then chr = Select Symbol
    • fn + chr = Select Symbol
    • mark text, then fn + chr + X = Select Symbol
    :smileysad: Why would AT&T want to remove a keyboard shortcut for copy/paste?!?!?
