You could drag and drop the photo to the desktop and then into word (won't be the original) or Export modified or original from the menus, but what was once easy will currently take a few more steps.

Will be sending in feedback.
Thanks again

There was another thread along the same lines as yours - I don't recall a solution, the problem is that certain things that seem not to work might be achieved in other ways or via more hidden options - give TD's solution a go if you haven;t tried, it may work for you.

Apr 15, 2015 1:13 PM in response to Terence Devlinby jofromyork,Your loosing me a bit now...not a techy! Time machine ia not working either since the upgrade and I know I am not alone there from other posts.....so no back up currently available.
Hopefully apple will issue another update (as what usually happens) to fix these issues? Appreciate your help though!
