Copy and paste

**candjmc** · 06-14-2012, 10:01 AM

I'm having trouble with the copy and paste on my PlayBook, I can copy the item I assume say from email.but when I paste, say in Google very rarely does it work. Also the drop down list when you're searching on a Site example Google, you type in your query and it comes up with examples of many choices I try to touch one but rarely pick what I think I've touched. Any advice would be great

My Copy and Paste work great. If you can copy, it's on the clipboard. Then you have to tap the screen to insert the cursor where you want to paste. Then hold your finger next to the cursor for a few seconds. A bunch of commands will pop up, tap the paste command and there it is.
The other item you mentioned about selecting, purchase a rubber tipped stylus at Staples (15.00). It is good to use instead of big fingers to make a screen selection.

I have found the best way when you have to make tap selection and may select wrong link due to small size of website, I first zoom in and then select.

For the Google suggestions, try to pinch to zoom before making a selection.
edit- rcm is quicker to the punch than me
