i need assistance with my iMac
Hello, everyone. I have been a PC owner for 20 years... I now have a new IMAC... how in the world do I copy paste pictures? I can not illustrate my posts because I can't copy past pictures. I am frustrated.

Depends on where you are trying to get pic from. If in your pic file all I have to do id right click on pic do copy and go to where I want it then paste.
You should have received Mac help (forgot what they call it as I have had mine for a while) and you can get on line or phone help at no charge.

I think you will have to use download pic with right click to you hard drive and then copy it from there to paste. I just tried that on a image and it worked.

I tried agin and used right click to save image to desktop and then did a copy from desktop and pasted into blank doc which should allow to paste anywhere. hope that helps.

Re: i need assistance with my iMac
Biker trash, thank you for trying. Nothing seems to be working right now. I am getting mush brained from trying to figure out this whole new system. I think I will put it on the back burner. You have great night. Thanks again.

I use a mac everyday. I can help.
To copy, select the picture with your mouse and hit "command C" or in other words press the "command" key (on either side of the space bar) and press the "c" key.
To make it so your mouse will right click:
Go to the apple symbol thats at the top left corner of your screen. Click on it. The go down to system preferences. Click on it.
That will bring up a new window.
In the second row of Icon you see in that new window, you will see a mouse. Click on that mouse Icon.
Depending on the mouse that you have the options will be different, but you are now at the place where you can turn on right clicking for your mouse.
If you have the fancy bluetooth mouth like I have you will see an option that says "One Finger" Click on the box that says "secondary click". Then change the drop down menu right next to that check box to right.
You are all set. Any more mac questions and you can PM me.
Once you get a hang of it... There is no going back to window. I know that I am never going back. Not unles windows seriously step up there game.

Re: i need assistance with my iMac
i Still can't get the actual picture... i am just getting the link. It may be just trying to copy from google images, but that is all I have since it is a new computer and I don't have any pictures yet
