How do i copy and paste selected rows from numbers to another numbers worksheet

I have asked this question before, but it sounds as if numbers did not have the update at that time.  I have pasted a spreadsheet from excel into numbers.  I would now like to take selected rows, for example, row 5, row 9, row 22, row 27, etc, copy these entire rows, and pastte into another blank numbers work sheet.  In excel, one can hold down the ctrl key, and click on each row they want to copy, and all will be copied in one operation,  Than you can paste into a new excel work sheet.  I have tried this on my ipad 2 many times, holding down the command key, and tapping on each row I want to copy.  I just cannot get this to work.  Please let me know how to do this, if numbers even has this possible.  Thanks.

I have tried this on my ipad 2 many times, holding down the command key, and tapping on each row I want to copy.
Command Key.... on ipad? Ddint know there was one.
As for copying non-continuous ranges, cannot be done on ipad at this time. On a desktop maybe, but i cannot test it right now.
Each row can be done individually, or you could sort the rows to grab the range you want. To do this (espeically if there is nothing that is unique about them), just make a new column and place a 1 in the cell for each row you want to copy, sort. That will place all your rows together and enable you to copy.paste them back out.
If you want to preserve the original sort order, make another column (I usually use A for this) and put in =ROW() as the equation. Fill it down for the whole table and copy/paste values over it. now after you do any kind of sorting, you can always return the list to the original sort order.

    Copy and paste? What app are you using?
    When you tap on an image and select copy that usually copies the URL of the image.
    Save image copies the image to your Camera Roll.
    Most apps have an Insert choice that inserts an image from your Camera Roll into the document you are working on.
    But if you tell us which app you are using, we should be able to provide more exact info on how to get done what you want.

    Pointing, clicking, and getting around
    When you move your mouse or finger on a trackpad, you control a pointer (also known as a cursor) that moves across your screen. The pointer allows you to select and interact with the various items on your screen, including selecting files, clicking buttons, dragging sliders, and so on. Sometimes the pointer may look like a hand, a crosshair, an I-beam, or another icon, depending on what you're doing and the application you're using.
    For example, if you're using Safari to view this webpage and move the pointer across it, notice that it turns into an I-beam when you move it over text or a text field. When you see this, you can usually interact with the text or field below it. When you move the pointer over a button or link, the pointer turns into a hand, letting you know that you can click on the item.
    Depending on what you're doing and what application you're using, your pointer (far left) may change appearances
    Clicking your mouse button or trackpad button once allows you to select the item that your pointer is on. In other words, if your pointer is on a file's icon, clicking once will select it. If the pointer is on a button or link, clicking once will activate it. If your pointer is on a text field, clicking once highlights the field and allows you to start typing text in it.
    If you want to open a file, folder, or application, click your mouse button or trackpad twice. This is known as double-clicking. In general, you'll need to double-click items if you want to open them from a Finder window or the desktop. The exception to this is opening stuff from the Dock—just click once on an icon in the Dock to open it.

  • How do I copy and paste a picture from my Photobucket account to an email

    The only reason I use Internet Explorer is because I copy and paste pictures to make emails for friends but don't know how to do it here

    Kind of depends on where the picture is. Usually you can just select it and if you can move it you can drop it onto the desktop.
    You should always check usage rights when you use a picture off the Internet. If it's for a school project or personal then there should be no problem.
    Pictures that require a royalty fee are usually marked.

  • How can I copy and paste quoted emails from Apple Mail v4.5 into another application?

    Hi,
    Having just moved from Entourage to Apple Mail on an Exchange back-end, everything is running smoothly except for one thing - when I copy emails that include quotes from replies (i.e. those coloured vertical lines down the left of the message) and paste them into other applications (Word, TextEdit, etc.) these indentations are not preserved, and instead each line starts at the left margin. This makes following interleaved conversations in the pasted document very difficult. It's as though Mail allows me to copy the view onto the message, rather than the source of the message (I believe that Mail simply reinterprets the '>' quote indentations for presentation, but retains these in the stored message).
    How can I restore copying of quote indentation in Apple Mail for pasting in other documents?
    CT

    You will need Pages or a sjmilar word processing program for this, TextEdit doesn't appear to be capable. Using Pages:
    Open your message. From the 'View' Menu choose "Message>Raw Source'.
    Copy the body of the message.
    Paste into a Pages Word Processing blank template.
    Open Find, click 'Advanced'.
    Set 'Find' to '>' (no quotes)
    Set 'Replace' to tab (select from the 'Insert' drop-down menu)
    Click 'Replace All'.
    Set 'Find' to '=20' (no quotes)
    Set 'Replace' to a single space.
    Click 'Replace all'.
    Obviously this will lose the colours which identify the level of quotes but you will have the indentation.

  • How do I copy and paste vector art from one layer to another, keeping all of its attributes?

    When I copy a vector shape from one layer to another, the shape picks up the color attributes of an existing shape in the second layer (or sometimes only the outline of the shape appears). What to I do to avoid this from happening (I just just want to paste the shape in its original form and color)?

    OK - I guess this is a little more difficult than I imagined...
    Merge Layers rasterizes all the vector shapes - I want all the shapes to stay as vectors in the second (pasted) layer.
    Merge Shapes changes the color of the copied vector shape - I don't want to change the color
    Shape Layer via Copy [Ctrl] +[J] copies the layer containing the vector shape, but doesn't paste it into the second layer
    Any other ideas? Or, is it possible that PhotoShop doesn't support varied colored vector shapes on the same layer? I am coming from an InDesign background, and there was no issue having many different (colored) vector objects on the same layer.

  • How do I copy and paste an image form the internet to Keynote. I have done this successfully in the past by selecting copy and then paste by using the right click function and now am unable to do so. I am thinking it is an outdate OS problem...not sure.

    How do I copy and paste an image from the internet to Keynote. I have done so successfully in the paste by using the copy and paste right click functions but am unable to do so now. That was about a year ago that I attempted that I was able to do this. Thank you for your help.

    Some images are copy-protected.
    If all else fails, you can make a screen shot of the image: 
    With the image visible in your browser, press CMD-Shift-4 and your cursor will change to crosshairs.
    Position the cross hairs at one of the corners of what you want to copy and drag to the opposite corner, then release the mouse. An copy of the image will be saved to your desktop.
    You can now edit and use this image.
    Be sure to respect copyrights.

    How do I copy and paste a resume from my downloads into/onto a job application on a potential employer's website?

    Not knowing the format/design of the employer's website, it's difficult to know.
    Why not send your resume via regular mail or email. Just fill out the application the way the employer wants you to.

  • How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another page or file - on the same screen?

    How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another - on the same screen?

      Open both of your images in the Editor. Click on the image you want to copy and press Ctrtl+A (select all) followed by Ctrl+C (copy) then click the tab for your other image and press Ctrl+V (paste)
    Alternatively click on your background image then simply drag the second image from the photo/project bin and drop it into the main editor workspace on top of the background image. Use the move tool to position and the corner handles of the bounding box to scale.

  • How can I copy and paste a caption for several pictures that are all the same?

    I'm trying to understand the process of importing, labeling and organizing pictures I'm importing from my iPhone into iPhoto 11.
    So far I am importing only pictures that relate to one another; ie taken at the same event.  I have 18 pictures from one hike.  I'd like to label each of those pictures the same; ie "hike at Bear Creak 2/15."  Can I copy and paste the same label to all 18 pictures?  How would I copy and paste?
    There are lots of You Tube videos on the subject of iPhoto and that's how I learn best.  If you know of a really basic one to watch I'd appreciate it. 
    I think I have to take a class at the Apple Store on this basic organizing because it's really escaped me in the 9 months I've had this Mac (switched from PC.)
    Thanks,
    Ginny

    Ginny,
    select all 18 photos at once in iPhoto on your Mac and then use the menu entry "Photos > Batch Change"
    That will change the titles or descriptions of all photos at once.
