When I right click to paste something, my Mac automatically highlights a space, a return, or the rest of the line...whatever is next to where I want to paste in my document. This highlighted area is automatically deleted as my copied information is pasted in. Is there a fix for this? This has been happening ever since I bought my Mac. I have the latest upgrade.
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
How about command (key) + the C (key) for copy
and command V for paste
This works. However, it's such an engrained habit of using my mouse, this new way is going to take some getting used to. And when I use Windows at work, I'm reminded that my regular way doesn't work on my beloved Mac. It's all good though. Thanks for your help!
FWIW, I believe what you are describing only occurs when clicking in text in a template.

I suffer from that everyday at work using Windows. Windows is an amazingly inconsistent and non-intuitive operating system that never works as I expect. It is riddled with "helpers" that consistently guess wrong about what I want to do. A large portion of my day is undoing what Windows thought I wanted to happen.
It happens during regular use of Pages and email.
Actually right-clicking works on Windows just fine. I wish it worked on my Mac, because that's what I'm used to.
