I want to copy and paste from a PDF, but when I select the text I want to copy and then tap the text, instead of getting the three options I expect (including “copy”), it unselects it all.
Why don’t the CTRL+C and CTRL+V copy-paste on the iPad like they do on Windows? I am using iPadOS 17.5.1 (21F90) and Zagg messenger Folio and Zagg rugged book.
iPad 2, iOS 9
I’d like to recommend visiting your local Apple Retail Store and taking advantage of a free workshop ▷ Get Started: iPad. ◁🙂↔️
Good luck! 👋🏼😉
On a Mac or an iPad with a Magic Keyboard, the copy/paste keyboard shortcuts are command + C and command + V, respectively. The control key is not used.
Thanks. Now I feel bad for asking this question. I feel regret.
Please don’t! If you come from a Windows environment, it’s perfectly normal. I had to learn brand new reflexes myself when I moved from Windows to macOS.
CTRL+C and CTRL+V don’t work
