Thanks for another great video, Gary! Even though I knew about copying text, I watched it anyway, because I was sure I would learn something new-which I did. I never even noticed the delete icon, and also learned a few new things about the screen capture. This is going to save me a bunch of time. Thanks again!
Hi Gary, as always a helpful and informative video. I have been watching your videos on our smart TV and can’t say thanks when watching that way, so - thank you for the last few weeks of tutorials including the new Sequoia ones. Please don’t ever retire……ll.
💙 Once again you have. Tight me something I was unaware of! Thank you! ❤ every time I think I don’t need to watch one of your videos, YOU prove me wrong and ignorant. 👍🏽😎 AWESOME! 👏🏼 🙏🏻
Great video Gary.... always providing info that we need. I just wanted to mention that I was trying select text from the system report. Apple, for some reason, has never allowed that. (The text version in the system report is not in spreadsheet format.) After taking a screen shot of the section that I wanted I was still having trouble getting all the text to drop into the proper column format that makes it easy to read. So I changed the brightness and got rid of the grey section on every other line and BINGO... I was home free. As a sage RUclipsr says: "Hope this helps "....(someone.)
I use this function, but not all the nuances. So many little bits I was missing. Thanks Gary, more great tips. I also didn't realise if I clicked on the floating thumbnail I could work from there, I was always waiting for it to save.
Hi Gary. Many thanks for all your great and informative videos. I know you always use the most recent Mac OS, but it would help if you let us know what OS version is used in each video. Thanks again.

I have a late 2015 iMac 27inch. I am on Big Sur. I cannot get your directions to work. Is my iMac too old for this feature? the Control, command 5 works but it keeps defaulting to the mark up tool.
@@macmost thanks! I am actually inside of Apple News, so not really a webpage. Can’t figure out how to print or copy text more than what I see on screen at one time.
@@kevinclark7136 Ah, OK. You said "webpage" before. News doesn't really work like that, but you can use the File, Open In Safari option and then you can copy from the web page if the site allows it.
How To Copy Any Text From Your Screen Shot MY WAY: 1. Open the Screen Shot in Preview 2. Go Tools and choose Text Selection 3. And now you CAN select, copy and paste the text
Sometime when I'm watching RUclipss I will click on the thumbnail of the video and it selects the type. Is there a way to turn this feature on and off?
It is in System Settings, General, Language & Region. But then you wont' be able to use it. Instead, make sure that when you click on a video thumbnail that it is a plain click. If you click and drag a little, then you may start a selection.
Haha I usually just screenshot, open in the preview, select the text and translate. One of the games I'm playing involving people communicating in Russian. I have to do that just to understand what they are saying. I just wish Apple will finally allow us to right away airdrop the screenshot to other devices without digging through so many steps.
...but why delete the screenshot immediately after copying the text and why not delete it after the copied text is pasted elsewhere? 2 - Does the text capture work with all languages or only with English alphabets?
You could delete the screenshot after you paste the copied text somewhere, which is what I have been doing. In fact, I never even noticed the trash icon. I guess it depends on your work flow. I take a lot of sceeen shots and frequently need to copy text. So in my case, deleting the screenshot immediately after will save me a lot of cleanup after. Now that I know about the trash button, I will start doing more deleted immediately. This is what is great about Gary’s videos. Even though I knew about copying text, I watched it anyway because I almost always learn something new.
Sure, you can do that if you find that works better for you. It would work with all languages that Live Text supports. See www.apple.com/macos/feature-availability/#live-text

Fantastic! Your tips are actually whole lessons. Thank you.

Hi, Gary! Thanks for the valuable info! However, I went into my Applications folder and could NOT find "Live Text". Where is it hidden?
It isn't an app. It is a feature found in other apps. Follow along with the tutorial here to see how to use it.

nice tips always . is the mac shortcut for text capture not working anymore ?
Yes. See www.patreon.com/posts/105248702
I just now had to do that with some Kanji characters. Very useful tip.
Copy that!
Gary, could I suggest a tutorial or video on how to use Hide my Mail?
This feature is very confusing.

@@macmost ,
10. Scary, I don’t know how I missed it.
I have a late 2015 iMac 27inch. I am on Big Sur.
I cannot get your directions to work. Is my iMac too old for this feature?
the Control, command 5 works but it keeps defaulting to the mark up tool.
You are using Big Sur. That's too old to have Live Text.
Very useful and informative video tutorial today! Thank you, Gary! 👏🏻❤️
How do you do it for a webpage that is bigger than just the screen?
If it is a web page, you shouldn't need to screenshot it. Just select the text you want and Edit, Copy.

How To Copy Any Text From Your Screen Shot MY WAY:
1. Open the Screen Shot in Preview
2. Go Tools and choose Text Selection
3. And now you CAN select, copy and paste the text
What about texts in vernacular languages such as Gujarati or Hindi
Look at the Apple site for Live Text and they list the languages supported.
