Hi Emily,

The keyboard shortcut for copying:

windows: ctrl + c

mac: command + c

The keyboard shortcut for pasting is:

windows: ctrl + v

mac: command + v

Use your cursor to highlight the text you wish to copy -- then use the copy shortcut. Hope this helps!

You might also want to try right clicking and choosing paste if that doesn't work.

I did right click but paste wasn't one of the options? I'm using Windows 8 if that helps
