Copy from quicktimepro, paste to imovie?

Why can't I copy from quicktime pro and paste into imovie?
I'm needing to copy very short segments from a MPEG4 Quicktime movie (which I can do fine), but when I switch over to iMovie, "paste" is greyed out. I was hoping to find a way to avoid the long wait with importing the entire movie.
Is there even a shortcut for this??

Crossboard,
In QuickTime Pro, after you have copied the short clip, do a File>New Player and then Paste. This will create a new movie of just the clip. Save the clip and import into iMovie.

How do you copy from a pdf and paste into Notes using iOS 4?

You can't. Copy/paste does not support PDFs or other image formats in IOS4.

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".

Copy text from photoshop, paste in iMovie?

can this be done? To paste overtop video clips. I just don't like the iMovie titling system.
Thanks.

Technically speaking you can not...but if you are creative enough you can do just about anything.
I have often created static titles using some nice multiple layers in PS. Save it as a .jpg and import into the project. Using a combination of ken burns, some cross dissolves, and even some Matte f/x from Gee Three you can do some really cool stuff. If you create multiple images and then set their duration to the minimum, you can even create the illusion of the images animating.
Just gotta think outside of the box.

Copy from PDF, Paste in Word or This Site - Some Text Duplicated

When I copy a block of text from a PDF and paste it into Word 2013 (or even into this question), some of the text is duplicated. Since this post shows the issue happens here (as well as my experienced in Word), I don't think the issue is the destination software. Thanks for any help or workaround (like a way to clear the clipboard perhaps)?
Below is a paste I just did into this question:
Google adopts an intermediary role and saves your card details on initial setup. Google adopts an intermediary role and saves your card details on their servers. They then issue a virtual card to your device
Below is the text as it appears in the PDF:
initial setup. Google adopts an intermediary role and saves your card details
on their servers. They then issue a virtual card to your device

Thanks for creating the test file, pwillener. I downloaded it, copied the text and pasted it into Word with no problem.
Looks like it it the source file.
Have you ever heard of a pdf file that shows text fine, but when you copy/paste it (say into Word for test consistency), the pasted text is partially duplicated as in my example? Are there any secret commands to show the pdf file contents (say in ASCII code, but without Adobe proprietary wrappings)? This seems to happen on pdf's created from printing a webpage from Google Chrome browser?
In any case looks like the bread crumbs lead to the Chrome path, next.
Thanks again.

Copy from Premiere, Paste in After Effects? Not for me. . .

Seem logical and one of the most obvious things we would all want to do:
take parts of what we are editing in Premiere, bring them over to After Effects, add an effect, bring the part back to Premiere to continue editing.
Perhaps my logic is way out there.
As I'm having such a problem doing this simple task, I'm being forced to conclude I must finish editing my 30 minutes of footage, save it as whatever, then re open the whole damn thing in After Effects.
I can't believe that's how this CS3 system is set up.
Is it???
I right click>copy a minute length snippet from Premiere, open After Effects, check to see the size of the composition matches the snippet, paste it into the timeline and I get a completely different piece from my Premiere editing board (timeline) playing at 4.7fps/59.94fps
What the hell is going on!
Any help would be most. . . helpful.

The way you describe it, tlc51~ is the way I envision it in my head.
It would be completely retarded not to be able to do that.
It makes logical sense, doesn't it?
Here's a 3 second clip on my editing board (PPro) I want to add X effect to, so let's just copy/paste it into After Effects, add X effect, bring it back to PPro and voila!
Nope, doesn't work for me.
I cannot copy/paste a clip.
So called 'Dynamic' Link opens After Effects and it sits there. . .
I might as well just click on the shortcut icon.
My mind works in a pattern that would open AE, file>import>PPro clip
Of course, there is not PPro clip.
When I copy/paste I get the full captured 11.7GB 1hour "clip" (is no 'clip', senior. Is mucho footage, si?)
One suggestion to me was simply:
Capture in small clips first, not in one start-to-finish set.
Another suggestion was to change it from mpeg to avi.
Both good suggestions, but in lieu of paying $2,500 is making Adobe look pretty ******.
I vent.
It's the same problem as Fireworks Save. (that Adobe fixed, by the way *praise where praise is due*) Before CS3 the simple save was only in .png form. You had to do the whole song and dance to save a simple .jpg . . . dumb.
The thought I might have to dump 20 hours of editing and go back to the original tape to down load the whole hour into 400 seperate clips. . . jesus, isn't that what an editing program is for???
Arg!

Can't copy from Excel & Paste into Buzzword anymore?

When Buzzword was in Labs, we used it to copy tables from excel and paste them directly into the buzzword doc without any problems. Now when I copy/paste from excel, I am getting text-only versions of my tables (In Firefox 3.0.17) and weird one-cell tables for each data field in IE7.
Did Adobe remove this functionality?

I'm having the same issue as well...UNLESS it's a feature you have to PAY for in which case is sad.

Mac OS: sapgui java 7.10 rev6 copy from ALV works but paste.... doesn't!

Dear all,
some times ago I had problems in copying cell contents from ALV reports. java gui 7.10 rev 6 solved the issue but....
... I still cannot paste it in SAPGUI.
I mean:
- I can paste it in other OSX application (like textedit)
- I cannot paste it in an input field of sapgui
to copy/paste from sapgui to sapgui I have to copy from sapgui, paste it to textedit, copy from textedit and paste it into sapgui.
No problem if I copy the value from a "normal" field. The only issue is if I copy from ALV reports.
Any hint?
Lorenzo

Hello Lorenzo,
this sounds like a bug we have fixed recently (assuming that I get your description correctly).
The forthcoming SAP GUI for Java 7.10 rev 7 should solve the issue.
Best regards

Clipboard error when copying from Ai to Ps CS5.

I just started receiving an error message when I attempt to copy vector objects from Ai to Ps. I try to paste it as a Smart Object and I get this message:
"Could not complete the Paste command because the clipboard data is empty or invalid."
I've also tried to paste it as the other options and still get the same message. I tried to copy/paste an image from the web into the same Ps document and that worked fine. Just seems to be from Ai.

3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512 MB
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1 (11B26)

Ai CS5 15.0.2

Having the same issue in CS5 - copy from Illustrator,paste in Photoshop. I closed Safari (5.1) and it pasted fine. I've had similar issues before which were resolved by closing a browser. In my experience, suspect browsers have been Chrome and Safari. Not sure why this occurs, but something to try next time. :-)

I'll stay in this chat ... I answered in the other one ... I have a Sony digital Handycam ... from years ago. I just got the LaCie and I think I formatted it for only to be used on my Mac ... how should I go about reformatting it to be HFS Extended like you said?

Text Copied from Illustrator CC 2014.1.0 Pastes as Image

I have seen similar discussions but none of the answers are of any help to me as of today.
Background:
I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10
All my CC apps are up to date as of (11/1/14)
I am also up to date on all other software on my Mac
My goal:
Copy text from illustrator
Paste in Mail, TextEdit, and Notes as live editable text
Results:
Text pastes as pdf or some type of an image depending on the app
What it looks like:
I'll start from the beginning to avoid some questions later.
I open a new document in Illustrator.
These are the clipboard settings in my preferences.
Please Note - I have tried every combination of these settings. Turning them on and off one at a time and in combination does nothing to change the end product. I have turned them all off for this example, so as to not muddy the waters.
I type some text. I did not use a text box in this example. I just clicked on the page with the type tool and typed this line. There are no added attributes. You can see the character settings are the most basic. Again, please note - I have tried using a text box with the same result.
I use the type tool to highlight the text and then copy the text. I did not use the selection tool to select the text and copy.
This is what the clipboard looks like. Note that the contents is "text".
If I type text in PS (as an example) and copy to the clipboard it says "text". However, the text I copy out of PS I can paste anywhere as editable text.
If I type text in Notes and copy to the clipboard it says RTF. This text can also be pasted anywhere as editable text.
This leads me to believe that this is an Illustrator centric problem I am experiencing.
I click into the body of an email and paste. Looks fine, but when I try to click into the text (such as between the words "into" and "Mail") I cannot do it.
The line of words is highlighted and not editable at all.
If I right click on the image of the line of text and highlight "open attachment" you can see the clipboard pasted in as a .pdf and not editable text.
Interestingly, if I open a new note and try to paste the line of text, it also pastes as a .pdf but just the icon show up. Double clicking on the icon will open the text as a pdf in acrobat.
I did not have this issue until CC2014 updates were made. I would like to know if there is something that can be done or is this a bug in Illustrator. If it is a bug I don't want to spend time looking for workarounds. I will use another program when I know there will be a good deal of copy and paste work to be done. It's inconvenient for my older Illustrator files now have this issue when I open them in CC2014.
I know I can use the "paste and match style" but it's a force of habit to use the shortcut for paste. It's also a ridiculous change to Illustrator for the cut/paste to act this way. If it indeed was planned and not a bug, what would the benefit be?
If anyone has insight into the problem I am eager to know what's going on.
Finally, if there is no other way to fix this then can someone remind me how to customize the shortcut key combinations in Mail, Notes and TextEdit? I seem to remember (long ago) being able to customize certain shortcuts in some apps, but I never did it in anything but Adobe apps and even then it was CS5.
Thanks in advance for any help!

I ran into this issue today. I wanted to copy text into an email – however I pasted it it stayed uneditable.
The workaround was to open Text Edit and use the menu item 'paste and match style' (Command+Option+Shift+V) which pastes it as editable text. Then copy and paste that into mail.
What a pain.
If I try 'paste and match style' directly in mail from illustrator it pastes as a flipping pdf.
I'm 10.10.2 yosemite and using Adobe CC
