Several times recently, I've found that I can type directly into a text capsule, but I can't paste anything in there. Which is an almighty nuisance if I've written a whole article in Word and don't want to retype it all!
Any idea what causes this and how to fix it?
Try hitting ctrl + V to paste into a module. Ctrl + C to copy.
It should. CTRL C and CTRL V, a new window will open and then paste in there.
An alternative to (CTRL + C) is (SHIFT + Insert) ..That works perfectly...No new window will open..(SHIFT + Delete) can also be used to CUT text.
Thanks, but I've already tried all your suggestions plus:
- right click and paste
- using the browser Edit button
- using the paste button in the capsule
Actually, I now know when it's not going to work, because the menu that comes up when I right click is not the correct one - there's a "paste" but not a "cut" option.

Try writing your articles in notepad rather than word. This will make it plain text format and works for me.
Apae, good suggestion! It occurred to me last night and I tried it, thinking "Aha! Now I've got you!"
Didn't work. $%%^^*&*!
I should say, I never have any problem on my home machine, where I use the Opera browser. It's just my work PC that plays up. Don't know whether it has anything to do with their firewall or security settings. It's not even consistent - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I can't edit nor change text capsules. Each time I try to edit text capsules, the text freezes. The cursor for text doesn't work. Please change to the previous hubtool writing capsules where things worked. This new hubtool capsule is beyond ridiculous. ...

for two days now i have tried pasting in the text capsule of my new hub, but nothing seems to be coming up except for the capsule subtitle. This has left my new hub unpublished and could be rated substandard since there is no adequate information in it.Is this a general problem?A lot of visitors...

How can I add a picture in the text capsule. I have seen in many hubpages that people have posted text and pictures side by side. But I have only text capsules and picture capsules. I don't know where to find the capsule which will accept both.Any suggestions.
