Guest guest Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Would everyone please " snip " all but the essential information so relies aren't so long? Imagine what those on digest see if we reply and don't delete. The below is an example of just one post.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 This request comes up often, but many of us (myself included) are often posting from gadgets that don't let you snip-hoping the technology will catch up at some point, but some gadgets just don't let you do it yet. I also don't like the whole message thread, but some times it will happen. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 All " gadgets " allow it. Just awkward, I admit. And when I am in a situation where I can't easily, then I copy and paste the old message in to a new one and start again.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 NO, all gagdets do not. I operate some gadgets from a wi fi hotspot, and snipping is not an option, nor is copy and paste. They will catch up, sooner or later. Until then, we just have to be a bit more tolerant. > > > This request comes up often, but many of us (myself included) are often > > posting from gadgets that don't let you snip-hoping the technology will catch > > up at some point, but some gadgets just don't let you do it yet.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Ah, then I just write my own. I always consider those on digest. W On 5/28/12 9:32 PM wrote: > NO, all gagdets do not.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I agree with . Here on my laptop it is easy, but if answering with my old Palm or even my new ipad, I have tried to copy and paste and " snip " but neither work.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I can copy and paste email on my iPad, but not on Facebook.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Yes, it is inconvenient to snip a post when visiting the group via iPad (or whatever gadget you may be using), but I do my best b/c scrolling thru those loooooooonnnnnggggg posts is such a waste of precious time... ;-) Carol > > > > Would everyone please " snip " all but the essential information so relies > > aren't so long?

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I have been able to bring up a "copy" button on my ipad, but can't figure out how to highlight exactly what I want, much less how to "paste" from that. And yes also not on FB. Velda On 5/29/2012 6:00 AM, S. McCurdy wrote: I can copy and paste email on my iPad, but not on Facebook.  I wonder if it has to do with the email program?

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I am so darn sorry I ever brought this up. But, I wish all of you would switch to digest (Gee, the intro email suggests this) and look at what that is like. Just LOOK BELOW and imagine that times 30 emails. Yes,,,all of this is repeated, every time if you don't snip. So a digest is all of these posts, with all of these replies times dozens. Sorry, it us just darn insensitive and rude. And I will go No Mail and not be part of it any longer.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Velda, to "copy" on your ipad, just hold your finger over the word or text you want to copy-I little box will appear saying "select (for just a word or phrase) "select all" (for the entire page, photos and all) there will be two little dots-just drag those dots over the part you want to copy, hit select and then it will give you a box-choose "copy". When you get to where you want to copy it TO, just put your finger on the screen and hold it again, another box will pop up that says "paste"-it will plop the whole part you selected into the new place!Sent from my iPadOn May 29, 2012, at 10:56 PM, Velda <solomon@...> wrote: I have been able to bring up a "copy" button on my ipad, but can't figure out how to highlight exactly what I want, much less how to "paste" from that.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 All I have seen come up is "copy" no other words to allow me to select more or less. Gonna have to play with that.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 , I responded to this AND closed the thread, but you seem determined that we are out to intentionally be rude. As I have clearly stated, and others have agreed, sometimes it is NOT possible. I moderate many groups and am well versed in the etiquette of trimming posts, but I am also considerate enough to know that not only are there many new people who may not know such tricks yet, but there will never be a " perfect " group that can accomodate all of the ins and outs. Sorry you find it " insensitive and rude " =we are neither. I AM on digest, and when I find a lengthy post, I am quite capable of scanning through it without it ruining my day-I am grateful that I live somewhere where I have such ready access to the internet and valuable info-I don't mind the " inconvenience " of glossing over a few extras. Perhaps going no email IS a better option for you, since you don't seem very tolerant of the " imperfections " of online groups. Shame, since we really are a rather fabulous bunch, with plenty to share. and I feel sure we could have learned from you as well...just not in such a chastising way, please.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Yeah but it's a pain on the iPad. Why not just delete the messages one is not interested in or read the response which is at the top if the message and ignore the rest?TerrySent from my iPadHDOn May 29, 2012, at 11:10 PM, Berry <berrywell@...> wrote: Velda, to "copy" on your ipad, just hold your finger over the word or text you want to copy-I little box will appear saying "select (for just a word or phrase) "select all" (for the entire page, photos and all) there will be two little dots-just drag those dots over the part you want to copy, hit select and then it will give you a box-choose "copy".
