Selecting multiple image files on the 'insert picture' menu in word

Hi there,
I am trying to insert multiple pictures at once into a word document, on office for mac 2011.
I am using the 'insert picture' option from the toolbar. Shift-click doesn't work like on a PC, and i have tried a variety of button combinations that don't seem to have any effect! Is there any way around this so I don't have to insert picture files into a word document one at a time?
Thanks!

You are right, it does not work. Here is a workaround by doing an intermediate stopover in TextExit (it's in your Dock and/or in your Applications folder):
In the Finder, select your multiple image files
Right-click (or control-click) and select "Copy # items"
Go to TextEdit and paste
Do Select All (Command A) followed by Copy (Command C)
Go back to Word and paste your heart out

  • Selecting multiple images to edit the source code

    Hi. Does anyone know if there's a way to select multiple
    images in a table and change there source code. The reason why I
    ask is that I recently decided to organize my assets folder by
    adding subfolders. Naturally, this makes my images appear as broken
    links. It's a pretty big site that I'm working on and I would like
    to know if there is a faster way than just selecting them one by
    one.

    If you would have created the folders within DW itself (file
    management), and moved images from one
    folder to the other, the links would have been adjusted
    automatically. Carrying out changes like
    this outside of DW will create broken links as you have
    found.
    Did you backup the original site, if so, and have a lot of
    broken links, it maybe worthwhile, going
    back to the original and use the file management to
    rename/create new folders and move your assets
    that way.

  • Multiple image files with the same name

    I have about 150 images that have been imported into a single lightroom folder that have the same name. These images are from a single event, so Id like to keep them together. The source files are in two different folders on my drive, but they all exist in one folder on lightroom. (for instance, I have two different images, both named CR-0917, both with different retouching). Initially, Lightroom allowed me to do all of my editing on all of the files in one place, even though the names were the same. I have since moved the source folders and files to a different location on my hard drive, but I can't update the files within the folder in lightroom, because lightroom chooses one source, so it gets about half the images right, and half wrong. I spent a ton of time retouching these images and I dont want to have to go back and redo it.
    Is there a way to manually update the source information for each image, without Lightroom automatically using all of the images from a single folder? Or does anyone have any other ideas of what I can do? Please help...

    I am puzzled about how this problem initially arised, too.
    For the issue with several cameras I recommend the following:
    1. If the camera lets you, specify a unique prefix so that each photo will have a unique name directly from camera.
    E.g. Nikon lets you change their default prefix "DSC" to something else. As I even do not want to have recurring filenames after 10'000 shots I choose "yFL" as prefix, where y=number from 0..9, F=starting letter of ther first name of the camera owner, L=last name. Or other 2 digits that point to the camera model.
    For current decade it is even nice to take y=1 for 2011 and so on. As I do roughly 10'000 shutters per year that fits about nicely. [Ok, as of 2020 I will use letters, too. 2046 I have to devise something else hoping that I will still be shooting photos with my same husband.]
    2. If the camera does not facilitate such, as Canon: rename upon LR-import by putting a short prefix in front of the originial filename, e.g. yS90_, yG12_
    I only want from a filename that it be unique in my household and that I have a rough idea where in sequence of time it may belong.
    So if I get pictures from friends I put a prefix for them, too, while importing. Leaving the rest of their original filename is good for further communication about the pic.
    I think usually LR takes more properties into account than just filename when deciding about duplicate, such as camera serial no., capture time etc.
    Anybody who knows for sure?

  • Select Multiple Images

    For some reason, I can't get LR to make changes to multiple images. For example: I select multiple images and apply the same rating and it only does one image. Same thing for deleting. Also, I select multiple images to use a external noise reduction and it also one uses one image.
    I am wondering if I have a setting turned off somewhere to prevent it from applying changes to multiple images.
    Thanks

    That did the trick.
    Thanks

  • Selecting Multiple Contiguous Files on Desktop

    I have been unsuccessful in selecting multiple contiguous files on the Yosemite Desktop. There is no problem in a Finder window, but on the Desktop, selecting a file and then the last of a contiguous group of files fails to include the files in-between. I have to select multiple contiguous files individually. What am I missing?

    No, really. Shift-clicking in Icon View does not extend the selection from what is already selected down to the item you shift-click. It hasn’t done that in icon view for at least two OS’s.

    To select consecutive images click and drag the cursor over multiple thumbnails to select all at once.
    To select multiple images that are randomly located hold down the Command(⌘) key and click on those images you want to select.
    Or to select consecutive images from a list of images that are together hold down the Shift key and and click on the first photo you want to select and the on the last photo you want in the list.

  • MDM: Search for images in the dialog window "Select Multiple Images"

    Hi,
    are there possibilities to search for images in the dialog window "Select Multiple Images" (if you want to add a image to a record)?
    I know the possibilities to sort the images and the possibilities with the data groups. But I don't know a possibilities to search for a single image.
    Thanks for any help!
    Best regards, Melanie

    Hi,
          From the question you asked; its not much clear what your clear requirement is; but if its what i get then the solution is:
          How is that you want to select the image? With Image view or By viewing the image itself ? For it when u select "Select Multiple Images" you can find two as "Available Images" and "Selected Images" and in between u can find some buttons, after "All, Add, Remove and None" you can find two buttons "Thumb Nail" and "view Details". I think you can use these buttons for your solution.
          When you select "Thumb Nail" button you can see the image in real and select the image.  OR you can select "View Details" and check the file name or path or the requirement as required.

  • Can I somehow let the user select multiple images from device?

    Is there any way to let the user select multiple images from the device media gallery?
    The CameraRoll only selects one image. And the FileRefernceList doesn't show thumbnails (so you have no idea what you are selecting).
    Is there a way, or maybe some sort of workaround, for this? Is there a way to maybe "read" the users gallery on the SD-card and output your own gallery that the user can select from?
    I'm developing towards both Android and iOS so cross-plattform is a must.
    Thank you guys

    +1 to this question. I'm looking to do the same thing but haven't had any luck yet.

  • If I select multiple images to apply a change to all Aperture it does so only with the first selected. Why?

    If I select multiple images to apply a change to all openings it does so only with the first selected. Why?

    You probably have Primary Selection only on.
    Aperture identifies the images you’ve selected by displaying them with a white border. When you select a group of images, the actively selected image, called the primary selection, appears with a thick white border and the rest of the selected images appear with thin white borders.
    Primary Only button: Click this button to make changes to the primary image selection only.

  • Selecting multiple images in a table

    Hi. I have a website and have recently decided to organize my
    assets folder by creating subfolders. However, this has made all of
    the pictures on my site turn into broken source codes. Is there a
    way to select multiple images within a table and edit the source
    code? If anyone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it!

    You should always do this kind of thing using DW's Files
    panel - DW will manage your links when you do.
    Did you move all of the images into the same subfolder, or
    different ones? If the latter, you will just have to remake all of
    the links one by one. If the former you may be able to do
    find/replace to find the old links and replace with the new folder
    path.

  • Fastest way to add multiple images, one after the other, in DW5.5

    There has to be a faster way to add multiple images, one after the other, in a web page rather than just dragging each from the Files tab w/in DW 5.5
    I was a little surprized I couldn't select multiple images and just drag a block and have DW just insert an img tag with empty alts and the source path but maybe there is some options I just haven't found?
    I tried using Bridge to generate a quick html slideshow/gallery but it creates skads of divs and such... I just have to update an older site and was looking for an efficient way to add a bunch of images (random names ugh so just copying-pasting one and changing names is still more manual) that lie next to each other, no breaks inbetween....seems an ideal automated situation.
    I'd settle for an external script or app or something because they come in blocks of 25 approx and I have all my actions in PS set up to size appropriately which is nice so I just wondered if there was something good for this low-level production task.
    Thanks

    Thanks. Yes, I started writing a script but I just wondered if there were hidden gems in DW....so many programs do more than they are intended to do nowadays, I had to ask people who use it more!
    Actually, the fastest was to just dupe one line of code, paste x amount and then just use the pick-wip to point and drag. That at least cut the menu out of the equation.
    I thought I remembered doing a batch insert years ago..maybe in GoLive or before Adobe had DW? DW and GoLive are the only GUI html editors I've ever used..but, may it was just something out of an ealier photoshop...they've taken good stuff out and put good stuff in so many times that I can only remember so much!

  • No thumbnails visible when doing file attach or insert picture from file

    Hi,
    Running OS X 10.4 (Tiger) on a MacBook Pro, I don't see image thumbnails when doing a file attach (or other similar "browse" dialog).
    I do see image thumbnails when changing the desktop background (until I go to Choose Folder) but not when doing tasks like these:
    -- File attach, such as when I'm sending a picture of my kitty cat (using Gmail from either Firefox of Safari).
    -- In Word for Mac: 2004, the Insert Picture dialog (the final dialog box is titles "Choose a Picture").
    -- In Pages '08, the Insert, Choose dialog.
    It there a solution short of firing up VMWare Fusion and doing this from <ack!> Windows?
    I've looked around a fair amount but not found an answer.

    HI Bob,
    In GMail, when you navigate to your images folder, it will be in a Finder window. Make sure your Finder window preferences are set to "Columns". Open a Finder window. In the Toolbar, there is one set with 3 different options... List, Columns, or Icons... choose Columns. When you go to select an image, you should be able to see the thumbnail version in the contextual menu that expands to the right.

  • When selecting multiple images in LR 5.2 on Mac, how do I delete all selected photos?

    Based on http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1308132?tstart=0 I decided to add each question seperately:
    Hello, I'm quite interested in buying Lightroom 5.2. I tried the RC which ran out now. Yet, I have a several questions that I can't really find good conclusive answers to, that I'd like to get answered before buying LR. Please don't write maybe like this or that (assumptions), since I don't want to start my whole workflow and then realize that I have to change everything around, so please answer, if you know for sure that something works and you are, preferably, using that method too.
    When selecting multiple images in LR 5.2 RC on my Mac, using the Filmstrip view, how do I delete all selected files using a shortcut (as opposed to the right-click context-menu > remove selected photos)? Details: Using backspace asks me if I want to delete it, I choose from disk, but it just deletes individual photos, so if I have 3 selected, I need to do this 3 times.

    Many users (including me) will thank you for saving us the trouble of looking for this description in the manual. Seriously!
    However, if something performs unexpectedly, if it's not a bug, it's at least a user-inconvenience.
    When an unexpected result like this occurs in a product, often the documentation writer is given the task of writing the workaround into the docs. That's not a great way to fix bugs permanently, even if it does help in the short term. So, it's probably a good idea to point to where in the documentation it seems that the product-performance problem is smoothed over, when filing the report/request.
    Feature enhancement requests and bugs are filed the same way. And, developers do listen to requests. Many features in many Adobe products originated in feature requests. However, product managers and, financial-management folks above them, who have some power to decide where to expend resources, set the priorities. Adobe's new subscription model is supposed to release some of the pressure on developers to meet a new release deadline every-so-often, where a whole bunch of product improvements is revealed, and instead, under the idea of making constant improvements available through more-frequent updates, users will get results sooner.

    As far as I know, this is not a bug, this is a feature of Lightroom (although I can't explain why anyone would want Lightroom to operate this way). You can find text in the Lightroom Manual that clearly explains tha operations performed on selection of photos in the Filmstrip is different than the same operation performed on photos selected in the Grid.

  • Selecting Multiple Images to Copy - Fragmented Image

    Hello!
    I made a pdf out of a powerpoint presentation on a friend's windows computer. I am now trying to extract an image that I lost while editing on my computer. The problem I have run into is that the image was fragmented into multiple pieces in the PDF (1 image is now 3 parts). I cannot seem to select all of the images and do "copy images" as you can with one part.
    I can select all the pieces with the touchup object tool and edit them in illustrator and then manipulate them but this is very much the long way around.
    Since I have to do this with many graphics, I am trying not to take the long route. Is there a way to select multiple images and copy them? Or is there a way to select everything with the touchup object tool and just copy it to the clipboard?
    Any thoughts?
    -Mike

    I am also running into this issue. I happens in PDFs coming from all programs that our clients use to produce the PDFs. InDesign, Publisher, Word, WordPerfect.
    My question is: back in CS3 days, I could select all the images (one image that broke into any number of horizontal sections) with the TouchUp tool and select>edit objects...They would all open as one image in photoshop, I could do my edits, save and then replace what I had on the PDF with the new saved file (jpg or pdf or tiff).
    We upgraded to CS5 and now I can't do that anymore. I go into my PDF, select all parts of the image and then edit, but only the first part I selected is editable. I would like to say that it's a CS5 issue, but we had one machine, back when we all had CS3, that would do the same (not edit all the parts as one). I'm thinking it's some sort of preference or combination of preferences in both Acrobat and Photoshop, but I can't figure it out.
    I know one runaround is the "Snapshot Tool," but it was much better before when we could edit what we needed and that's it.
    Thank you for your attention,
    Leonardo Pedreros
    P.S.: Please don't judge me about Illustrator VS. Photoshop...they REFUSE to give us Illustrator at work, for some reason ($$$). If only they knew the amount of time and file size that Illustrator saves, they'd invest in 5 measly licenses.
