Copy and paste pictures from preview to ebay problem

Hi.
I am creating adverts on eBay with my macbook and when I copy and paste a picture from preview, into the body of the advert it works fine and displays fine. I then save the advert and go to view it on my mac and all displays ok.
However my problem is when I view it on anything other than a mac. The pics just show up as a small block with a strange symbol in it.
Anybody got any ideas?
It seems daft that I can create an ad on a PC and you can view pics no matter what machine you use, yet when I use a mac it's not the case. I hope it doens't mean I have to keep using my PC.
So you know, I have tried it with the picture file being a ".png" file and a ".jpg" file and it made no difference.
Thanks
Mark

Sorry to disagree but this isn't right.
I copy and paste on my PC and it works just fine to view on anything so if what you're saying is right then it would surely do the same on a PC.
Aslo it IS saving the image in the body of the ad because if I view it on another mac it displays correctly.
I'm not sure what you mean by you upload the pictures at the end. I want to type a bit about the product, then have a picture, then type some more and maybe put some more pics. Like this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180637405596&ssPageName=STR K:MESELX:IT#ht1600wt1141
or this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180635082165&ssPageName=STR K:MESELX:IT#ht1266wt1141
The only difference here is these were created on a PC.
I must add on thing though. When I'm trying to add the pictures, I have them open in "preview" and I crop them by using the instant alpha cutting tool. Then I copy and paste it. I've even tried savingit as a jpeg file and a bmp file and makes no difference.
Thanks
Mark

  • I can't copy and paste pictures from the web to my email like I could with Explorer?

    With IE you can copy a picture from the web and paste in to an email, with Firefox I have not been able to do this?

    In Firefox, right click over the image you want to copy and select "Copy Image".
    Go to your email application and then right-click and "Paste".
    This should work.
    I notice that you are using an older version of Firefox, so it might be worth upgrading to the newest version Firefox 6.0.2.

  • When using Yahoo Mail in Firefox, I can't copy and paste pictures from a third-party host. I can do this in MSIE 8.

    I'm accustomed to copying pictures that I placed on a third-party host (Photobucket or Multiply) and pasting them into the body of a Yahoo Mail message. I can't do that on Firefox. When I click "Paste," nothing happens.

  • Can I copy and paste pictures from laptop (windows 7) to ipad

    I had to remove pictures taken with iphone (photo stream)  to make room to load ISO8.  Copied them to my Toshiba laptop but now trying to copy & paste back to ipad but it is not working.

    Sync the Photos using iTunes on your laptop.

    There are also third party WiFi apps that let you transfer photos to the iPad from the computer and the other way around. I use this one.

  • Preview - Cannot copy and paste text from pdf

    Hi there ...
    I usually have no problem copying and pasting text from a pdf using Preview ...
    However .. I recently received a pdf ... and there is no way it will highlight the text to copy ...
    The older pdf's are not affected ...
    I did a get info on the pdf ... it's not locked ... and it was made by Adobe In Design CS2
    I tried opening it with Adobe Reader 9 ...... but still no luck
    IN my search .. I noticed one other person had the same problem ... but he didn't get any responses..
    Thanks for any info ....

    If it's behind something else then you can open it in Illustrator and select the specific object you want. If it's rasterized then no.
    If this is a document you can share with the world then I'm sure we could tell you what specifically is going on if you posted it here.

  • Why I am not able to copy and paste photos from my desktop to my Itouch?

    I am not able to copy and paste photos from my computer to my Itouch. I use to be able to do it. Now there is an error message that says my device is wither disconnected or stopped responding.
    But when I plugged in the Itouch, it still shows on my computer, still able to see my existing pictures in it. Just not able to paste/drag any new pictures into the folder.
    Anyone has this problem and able to solve it?
    Thank you.

    Hi BobRz
    Thanks for you suggestion but it didn't work - are there other ways for solving this problem? Or is it because my files that I want to copy and paste onto my hard disk etc are too big? (However there is space on my hard disk and it works on a PC)

  • Muse 2014.2 : when I copy and paste svg from Illustrator to Muse, i have no transparency.

    Hello. Muse 2014.2 : when I copy and paste svg from Illustrator to Muse, i have no transparency. Only by importing saved svg file I have transparency.
    In official Adobe (promo) Tutorial  in the same operation - svg is transparent, link: Import SVG | Adobe Muse CC tutorials
    Please help me!. It would be very usefull copy&paste svg with transparency.
    Andrew Maola

    Hi.
    Thank you for explaining the theory about rendering in Muse but something doesn't work.
    I'm running on Win7 - CC2014.2. on 2 different computers. Efe Of course the transparency displays correctly when I preview my page in the browsers (All browsers - also IE11).
    Also in preview mode svg is very good but in design mode
    In order to render the SVG at design time, Muse hands the SVG to Safari on the Mac and Internet Explorer on Windows and asks it for a bitmap. This bitmap is only used at design time and when viewing the site in a browser that does not support SVG. Unfortunately, the bitmap returned by Internet Explorer strips out partial transparency. Fully transparent pixels should be preserved at design time and all transparency should be preserved when you actually view your site in the browser.
    We have not seen or heard of differences in the handling of transparent pixels between copy/pasting and save/import. Hence, I'm wondering if the copy/paste issue is only with partially transparent pixels and if the case that succeeds in a save/import workflow is for fully transparent pixels. To be clear, this transparency issue should only be during design time on Windows. There shouldn't be any issues on the Mac or in the browser.

  • I cannot copy and paste details from my bank statement into a word document, without the formatting changing.I have a message in my Error console which reads: server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555

    Since transferring data from my desktop to my laptop, i am now having problems copying and pasting details from my bank website in to a word document, the formatting is all over the place. This didnt happen before, when i pasted the details in to the word document the formatting was exactly the same as on the webpage. If I use internet explorer, I dont have this problem, so, I can only assume it has something to do with Firefox. I have checked the "Error console" and I am receiving this message: server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555.

    You need to give a lot more information about the media specifications and the project properties you're using in the different projects.

    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    You can still copy and paste material from various applications in iOS 7.  Here are the steps on how to process these steps.

  • I am unable to copy and paste text from mozilla, clipboard error

    Hi-
    It seems I am suddenly unable to copy and paste anything from mozilla into other text editors (word, wordpad, notepad).
    I am unable to use ctrl c or v, when trying to do Edit-copy or paste it seems as though nothing is "recognized" by Mozilla.
    I'm using a netbook running Win7.
    In an effort to fix this problem I restarted firefox, started in safe mode, disabled all plugins, returned to default settings, and have done basically everything except for uninstalling and reinstalling.
    Are there suggestions? I looked in older posts, but I also do not have the pushow.dll(or something like it) or the new.net(or comparable) malware so I cant get rid of that either.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Firefox button > Web Developer > Error Console or {Ctrl + Shft + J} from the keyboard
    Do you have any messages relating specifically to that error? <br />
    You can right-click a message and use Copy to get that message into the clipboard - and then Paste it here. (If that works.)
    Beyond that, try a new Profile (don't Delete your current Profile). <br />
