Copy Numbers sheet and paste into Mac Mail

I searched the forum and couldn't find a thread on this topic...
I'm another of the many recent Windows converts. I have an Excel spreadsheet I use to track information for a group. As it's updated, I would hilight the cells in Excel, cut, and then paste into an Outlook e-mail. It would go through just fine.
I tried to do the same thing with Numbers / Mac Mail. When I do a straight cut and paste, the data goes into the email, but loses its structure -- there are no columns. I tries 'paste as quotation' and 'paste and match style', but to no avail.
I ended up booting through Parallels to Windows, and brought Excel up and loaded the page. I can't remember how I cut and pasted it, but somehow I did get it from Excel to my MacMail message. The recipients told me, though, that the font was monstrously large.
Not everyone has Excel, and as far as I know, I'm the only Mac user...any suggestions on how I can easily get that info into my e-mail??
Thanks!

Couple of options:
Use command shift 4 and draw around the table with the mouse curser ~ a png picture of your table will be on your desktop ~ use attach in mail and tick send windows friendly attachments too.
You could also save Numbers as pdf ( Under the print option) and attach that instead.
No doubt there are other ways.

Why when I copy a cell and paste into another it pastes into the middle of three cells?

Why when I copy a cell and paste into another it pastes into the middle of three cells? I was very fond of using numbers as it was straightforward and much better than Excel. But I made the mistake of installing Mavericks and Numbers 3.0. Now it is worse than Word at doing what it thinks it wants to do rather than what you want to do. I can no longer copy a cell and paste it into another. For some reason on pasting, instead of pasting into just one other cell it pastes into the middle of three cells - what the ****?

Thanks Badunit for your quick response
I have found the answer - it is a incompatabilty between CopyPaste Pro and Numbers: -
Thanks dbg1596 - solved my problem with which I wasted a good couple of hours getting more and more frustrated with numbers 3.0
I had the same problem - copy a cell - paste into another cell and it created three vertical cells with the pasted data in the middle
Definitely a problem between CopyPaste Pro - one of the most useful aps on my Mac for the last many years
Once I quit CopyPaste Pro - no problem with pasting in Numbers 3.0
But I use CopyPaste Pro all the time
Have the folks responded to your query?

Copy formatted text from Pages into Mac Mail loses formatting

Hi,
I have a document template I use in Pages that eventually gets copied into an email for sending (rather than attached, it's the actual email body).
Issue is, when I copy from Pages into Mac Mail, the formatting is horrible.
The closest I have to a workaround, though still not 100% (just way better) is to Export the Pages file to Word format, open the document in Word, copy the text there and paste it into Mac Mail.
It can't be this awkward, can it?
Thanks!

How can I copy a url and paste into my email or other page?

I used to be able to copy a url from wherever I was, say Youtube and my browser would remember that and I could paste it on another site, say email or Facebook, etc.

Thank you so very much. I've been searching around to no avail for days. Woohoo. You made my day.

Applescript to copy cells from excel and paste into numbers

Hi  community! I find myself needing your assistance once again. I'm new to applescript and it's my first scripting language. I'm trying to create a script that will copy a block of cells in an excel spreadsheet with multiple sheets and paste that info (preferably with a keystroke) into a numbers template. I've written a successful script to activate Excel, go to the sheet with the info, copy it, then open a Numbers template from My Templates. The problem I can't solve on my own is how to select the right cell on the right table on the right sheet and Paste and Match Style.
Some helpful info:
-I've changed my [Command+V] keystroke in Numbers to "Paste and Match Style" because this is a very common action for me
-The Numbers template is pretty big, but does open on the correct sheet for the paste
Here's what I have so far: (sorry for the center justification, but it wasn't displaying correctly)
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
activate
set myActiveWook to "OG3.9.xls"
select worksheet "Blank1"
select range "E8:E32" of worksheet "Blank1"
tell application "System Events" to keystroke "c" using command down
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
select worksheet "Inputs"
end tell
tell application "Numbers"
activate
set the templatenames to the name of every template
set thistemplatename to "PQ10a" as string
make new document with properties ¬
{document template:template "PQ10a"}
end tell
end tell
From here I was trying this, but couldn't get it to work. it would paste the data the first time into the script editor, then in the middle of the template if run a second time.
tell application "Numbers"
activate
set the templatenames to the name of every template
set thistemplatename to "PQ10a" as string
make new document with properties ¬
{document template:template "PQ10a"}
tell table "10" of sheet "INPUTS" of document 1
set selectrange to cell "B2"
tell application "System Events" to keystroke "v" using command down
end tell
end tell

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hey Priya,
The best way to do this would be by utilising the Excel Import Wizard. These help files provide a thorough explanation into their use:

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.

Why can I not copy text from a file and paste into "File Name" when saving?

I thought I used to do this but I cannot copy a string of text from within AI (CS5, CS6 or CC) then "save as" and paste into the "file name" field. Why would this be?
This proceedure works fine in Photoshop.
Mac OSX 10.7.5.

I am copying the characters not the object. Something seems to have changed at the system level. I can paste the text to other applications (Skype, Word, etc.) but not the "Save" dialog. I have been pasting the text to a Skype message window and re-copying. Then it will paste into the save dialog. Weird.
I see you are on 10.6.8. Maybe it's a system difference.

How do I copy text and objects from pages to and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email

Anyone know how I copy text and objects from pages and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email, thanks

You can't expect Mail to support all the objects of Pages which can include anything up to charts generated from spreadsheet tables.
Even if Mail was a superset of Pages, what would the recipients who don't have either Mail or Pages, make of it?

Can't copy text or images from webpages and paste into word documents or notepad

Today suddenly I cannot copy text or images from webpages (I tried many different ones) and paste into my word 2010 document or notepad. What can I do to get this ability back. Yesterday it worked fine. It does not appear to be a problem with word or notepad so I have to assume it is a problem with Firefox

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

Copy and paste into dialog boxes

Copy and paste into dialog boxes
Greetings:
This is a cross post, so sorry about that, but I had originally replied to a previous post,
before I realized it was probably the wrong forum
for my question.
Copying from a document to a dialog box field doesn't work anymore; How do I fix it?
We have the problem since upgrading to Tiger.
Our Mac users, during their workflow, paste a filename
from a document into the 'save as' field (when printing to a .ps file).
This no longer works. UNLESS they control click in the 'save as' field.
Then they can select 'paste' with the mouse. Why is this happening? and how can we fix it? (so they can just 'command C' then 'command V' as they used to).
We have repaired permissions, cleared user caches,
tossed finder prefs, logged in as another user,
all to no avail.
Thanks in advance!

Matt,
Thanks for your response.
I agree that something else is capturing the shortcut, as
all shortcuts are unavailable in the pulldown menus at that point where we used to be able to 'Command V' paste into the text field. We're not using Quick Keys, and the
Full keyboard access setings are default for OS 10.4.
I did experiement with turning of some of the modifier F key selections in the Keyboard system prefs but none made
any change for this issue. For now our work around will be to control click in the text field and select 'paste'.
Seems odd that the contextual menu is available for that field but a 'command V' or command control V doesn't work.
Not a huge deal, more of an irritant, but I'll keep on the hunt! Thanks again!

COPY AND PASTE INTO WIN7 DIALOG BOX

Hi,
I am new to Win7 and Lenovo Technologies. I am not sure if this post belongs here or if my problem has to do with Lenovo password management, which I have not yet set up on my new ThinkPad W700.
I am unable to copy information from a text file and paste it into a Win 7 dialog box. I am in a process of loading software from my old machine into the new one. I have all relevant information on keys, etc., in text files within my installed software archive. Manual retyping is a pain! The copy and paste function works just fine outside of the dialogue boxes.
Can someone advise me what I need to do in order to allow the pasting of information into the dialogue boxes possible?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

SUPPLEMENT TO MY PREVIOUS POST
The copy and paste into dialog boxes works just fine. I suspect that my earlier problem was due to not being familiar with the new computer's keyboard. I am used to the CTRL key being located at the bottom left of the keyboard. The new keyboard has the Fn key in that position. I must have pressed Fn instead of CTRL. The old habits die hard. I feel like for not noticing this earlier.

I cannot copy from any website opened in FIrefox and paste into Word since using Windows 7, Office 7.

I just started using a new Windows 7 computer with Office 7 installed. I can no longer copy from any webpage opened in Firefox and paste into Word.
I can paste into email. Word to Word is OK. And copy from email and into Word is OK. But not from an opened webpage into Word.
Any help GREATLY appreciated!

it sure would be nice if Firefox had technical help that customers could call for help.
