First I tried command-x only to realize that it is dimmed out on the edit
menu. Command-c and command-v works though but without the command-x, I have
to go back to the folder where I coppied the files to delete all the files I
just copied to the other folder. It is taking so much time cause it is
acctually copying the files instead of just changing the point of reference
as command-x then command-c will do. Is there a setting I am missing? Why is
my edit menu having this dimmed item? It is tedious to be going back and
forth folders first to select then copy,  go to another folder and paste,
then go back to the source files and delete but right now, that is the only
way I know And there is very little I do know cause it is all new to me.

 

The second that I tried is to learn or at least try my skills at drag and
drop but I haven't gotten the hang of it yet so far. What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks.

Hi All!

I'm a new Apple switcher and I like it very much. Its just been a week since
I got a new Macbook pro and I've been learning fairly quickly if I may say
so myself. I love challenges and this thing about learning the operating
system plus its screen reader surely qualifies for one big challenge indeed.
So far I've been doing very well until I ran into a problem with cutting and
pasting with in the Finder. I can't make it to work  no matter how I try. I
have to learn how to do this cause my work  involves moving lots and lots of
files and folders all day. I'd truly appreciate it if someone can help me
learn how to move files and folders.

Thanks in advance.

Vic
