Copy from Illustrator CC and Paste to Powerpoint issues

Hello,
How do you copy and paste a graphic from Illustrator CC to Powerpoint?
I know that sounds easy, and it should be...I used to be able to do this the standard way (ctrl+c in Illustrator, ctrl+v in Powerpoint), however now the result is just a load of code inside Powerpoint and no image. Any ideas? (other than exporting as pngs etc.)
I'm on the latest version Illustrator CC, Powerpoint 2011 for Mac, Mac OS 10.9.1
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you for your reply. I persevered and have figured out what to do.
I create a lot of icon type drawings in Illustrator CC (paths converted to outlines on transparent background) which I want to use in PowerPoint 2010 and be able to change the fill colour of the icon in ppt. I unchecked the preferences>File handling & clipboard>Include SVG code checkbox in Illustrator but copy / paste special > as EMF did not result in editable graphic in ppt so then I exported to .EMF, Inserted EMF file in PowerPoint, Ungrouped and deleted the background. That worked.
Kind regards
Marie-Noëlle

Why can't I copy an image or vector from Illustrator CC and paste to Fireworks CS6?

Why can't I copy an image or vector from Illustrator CC and paste to Fireworks CS6? This was possible with Illustrator CS6. I know they are different versions but since there is no Fireworks CC, is there a fix update???

Yes, other users have complained about that. Unfortunately, Fireworks' development was halted a year ago, and I would be surprised if Adobe spends any money or time to fix bugs and interoperability issues in Fireworks. I would not expect any real updates or fixes.
Tough to swallow, but FW is dead in the water and EOL'ed.

CS5 - Help copy from another application and paste into CS5

I am not able to copy an image from another application and paste into my CS5 image.
I can paste the image into any other program except for CS5.
Does anyone know how this issue can be fixed? Very frustrating, since it is such a simple process.
Thanks!

You probably have at least one plug-in made by Nik Software. They're known to interfere with Photoshop's ability to access the clipboard.
I believe there's a Nik configuration file change needed, or possibly a removal of all or part of the plug-in to restore Photoshop's access to the clipboard. There's another thread on this forum that's gotten quite long on the subject, and in it are some possible resolutions... Ah, here it is: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/680075

Copying from one arrangement and pasting into another arrangement

Hi, I'm using Logic Express 8.
I'm wondering if there is a way to copy several tracks from one arrangement window into another. I've tried to do this simply by copying and pasting, but when I paste into the new arrangement window I get error messages and the tracks pasted into the new window have a speaker icon with an "X" through it - and obviously no sound.
Am I missing something, or perhaps this is simply a limitation that exists with using express instead of pro?
Thanks a lot.

You can do this by simply importing the data from one project to your new one. Check it out here.

Copy from illustrator, paste in photoshop. My image is now tiny and pixelated

My coworker and I just updated my photoshop CC yesterday and we are both having the same problem, so here is what happens:
I draw a vector image in illustrator, say its a square that is 1x1". I copy it from illustrator, and go to open a new photoshop document. My preset is "clipboard" which means it should give me a 1x1" square that is the resolution that i have set (in my case it is usually set at 1200 DPI), but instead, it is now setting it to .6x.6 inches. Then when I have the document open and paste it in, it is pasting it at a very low resolution and a smaller canvas size than my image is.
If I dont use the clipboard preset and type in my own size, the resolution is fine when I paste my shape in. This works for shapes that are exact dimensions, but if I have a shape that is 2.2034x3.4565, its a little annoying to have to figure out that dimensions in illustrator then type it in when creating my photoshop document, epseically because I am doing this over and over throughout the day (creating bitmapped tiffs from vector illustrator shapes). Its also annoying to have to make it bigger then crop it down after I paste it in.
Before the update, the clipboard preset would size it exactly to the size of my shape I copied from illustrator and the resolution would be fine.
I am hoping it is something simple that I just need to check or uncheck, but I dont know where to start.
Anyone know how to fix this?

I have the same problem, but I found a workaround. It may be the same procedure Sarahjane_72 used. It adds two steps to the import: Copy the AI vector art, switch to PS, hit command-N, then, when the Paste dialogue box appears, *first* switch the box's units from pixels to whatever you use-centimeters, inches, picas. *Then* switch the scaling factor, e.g., 72dpi, to your preferred size, e.g., 300dpi, and the image should paste at the correct size. If you reverse the sequence and change the dpi first, it will not work, and the results will be unusable. I have no idea why it works one way and not the other, but switching first from pixels(a scaling factor) to an exact measurement in inches or centimeters seems to make all the difference. I've asked this question in other threads. Nobody has an answer, but I can tell you that this glitch survived a reformatting of my HD to get rid of a malware infection, followed by a re-install of the Adobe CC apps. So it seems to be due to some change in Photoshop. It's a big waste of time and I hope it wasn't consciously added as an "improvement".

Why do vector objects copied from illustrator cc don't stay the same dimensions when pasted into pho

I think the problem started with the last updates. The normal work flow of copy and paste no longer functions correctly.
Photshop is changing the dimensions of vector artwork copied from illustrator, and pasted to photoshop.
If I start with a 6in x 6in vector shape in illustrator, and select copy, I should be able to go into photoshop, select file and then new,
and the document should automaticly get the dimensions from the clipboard. For some reason that 6in x 6in opens a 0.6in x 0.6in document.
Even if i manually change the document to 6in x 6in, anything else I copy from illustrator larger than 6in x 6in gets its dimensions changed to fit inside the document. I cant copy and paste a 10in x 2in vector into the 6in x 6in document without photoshop changing the dimensions
so it fits inside the document. Any ideas on how to fix? Thanks.

illustrator has no dpi, that info wont copy to the clip board. There are setting within illustrator you can set so when you do raster something in illustrator, you can pick what dpi it will raster it to. But even if you raster something in illustrator, the dpi info doesn't copy to the clipboard.
The Photoshop: File, New, opens a window with the default set to pixels and 72ppi. When you have something stored on the clipboard, First you change the pixels to inches, cm, mm, anything but pixels, the dimensions stay locked in and Then you can change the ppi to anything you want.
The issue once the file is opened, and you try to copy and paste in something larger than the canvas still needs corrected. I have found a quick work around. After you paste it, before you select ok or hit enter, look at the info where it displays the % of the size of what's being placed.
It shows it at less than 100%, so change it to 100% (and constrain) and its back to original size.

How can I copy an audio effect from a clip and paste it to another clip in the same timiline...With FCPro 7 it was all so fast........

The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text

Z10 HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
Help Please. It should be so simple but in the maze of approaches to contacts from the phone or home screen which ever way you get there; how do I select a phone number, copy it and paste it into a text message to another contact so that I can send it on?
The logic of the interface is totally baffling to me most of the time. Can't there just be one contacts interface so that when you enter it from anywhere it presents the same options to edit etc. Cannot the three blobs be called up to allow a proper edit menu - copy/cut/paste/delete.
Can the favourites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?
Any help on any of these - much appreciated.
Solved!

Hey jbee,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
How Do I copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
The only option would be to to select the edit option on the contact and hold your finger on the number and select the copy option on the left side panel.
Can the favorites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
This feature is currently not available.
Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?

Let me know if you have any other questions.

How can I copy a row from one sheet and paste it in a column in another sheet?

I would like to copy a row of numbers from one sheet and paste it into a column in another sheet. Is it possible to do this with numbers?

Hi Dennis,
Numbers doesn't have a built-in Paste Special > Transpose the way you have in Excel. However, there are ways to do this in Numbers that are not difficult.
Here are two ways:
Approach 1:
Select the row of numbers, and command-c to copy to the system clipboard.
Click on the canvas and command-v to paste, automatically creating a new table.
With that new table still selected, in your menu choose Table > Transpose Rows and Columns.
Select the cells in the transposed table, command-c to copy, click once in a cell of the destination column of your target table, and command-v to paste.
Approach 2: (after a quick installation, very similar to Excel's built-in Paste Special > Transpose)
Download this Copy Transpose Automator Service, and double-click to install (if necessary choosing Open Anyway in System Preferences > Security and Privacy).
Thereafter to use just:
select the row of numbers you want to copy
with the cells still selected, choose Copy Transpose from the Numbers > Services menu
click once in the destination column and command-v to paste the transposed values.
Note that the second approach does not handle cells with formulas, whereas the first approach will.

When I copy and paste a powerpoint slide into Captivate the slide is blurry how do I fix that

When I copy and paste a powerpoint slide into Captivate the slide is blurry how do I fix that

Have you tried importing it with standard workflow instead of coyping and pasting.
Is the resolution of your powerpoint presentation and Captivate Project same, make sure it is same, else, it would rescale it to fit on the sldie, rescaling might detoriate the quality.
Thanks,

When I copy an email message and paste it into a document, the font turns into all symbols. What's the problem here?

When I copy an email message and paste it into a document, the font becomes all symbols. What is wrong?

To use images from the media browser, you must generate previews of the images first. It sounds like the "automatically generate previews for every new project" is turned off under Aperture >Preferences>Previews. To generate a preview for a photo to use in the media browser, right click it and select "update preview". The quality of the preview photo is determined by the settings in the Previews tab found under the Aperture>Preferences menu.

How can I copy a web image and paste into iMessages?

I have recently purchased a new iPhone that uses the iOS7. Previously, I was able to copy images from the web and paste into iMessages. When I try this now, all that is pasted is the link. Is there a way around this?

When I tap and hold the image, I don't see an option to "Save" it. I get the following options:
Open, Open in New Page, Add to Reading Lisa, and Copy. When I choose "copy and then go to paste it, it just pastes the web link as you mentioned. Am I missing something?
(Thanks for your response, by the way)!
