Copy-Paste From Other Apps (like PPT 2004) Into CS5 Broken ? -  OS 10.6.3

Hi,
New Mac, so to avoid problems went for the new post-Snow Leopard Photoshop CS5. Oops.
Copy-Paste From Other Apps Into CS5
Pasting images/photos from Powerpoint 2004 to CS5, I experienced the exact problem posted slightly off topic by james norrington in the thread "CS5 does not let me copy & paste file names."  It was not answered and is quoted here:
---"I am using CS5 Photoshop and Office 2004 on 10.6.3. I was using 10.4 until a few weeks ago and it worked and still works with other macs in the office using CS4. I can copy and paste from powerpoint but it cuts the pictures in half and does not know what the res. of the image is. Also when I go from photoshop to powerpoint the image res. is also not preserved."---
Besides that, I also found copy-paste from a digital camera photo.jpg from Preview to CS5 doesn't respect the resolution either. Directly opening the photo into PS CS5, fine.
From the earliest PS, always was able to copy any image to clipboard, have a new document dialog box come up pre-filled with correct original WxH pixels, original resolution, color mode, etc., and just paste into the new document - perfect fit (even the oddball PPT 576 ppi). Now a shift and cut-off.  Don't have PPT 2008 to test pasting from there.
I have also found that a similar but less severe image cut off happens when copy-paste from PPT -> Preview, or -> TextEdit, or ->  drag and drop picture clipping.
Opening Image File in CS5
Even an original 300 dpi tiff file wrongly went to 72 ppi etc. when opened directly into CS5. Converted the file to a jpeg in Preview - that jpeg file could be opened into CS5 correctly, reconverted the jpeg to TIFF in Preview, still opened OK (not counting loss of image quality). Still couldn't copy paste from either document into CS5 correctly. One difference I noticed in the converted files was that more information was available in the Preview file info. Maybe that made the difference in opening the file correctly.
I'd welcome any suggestions. Thanks.

Thanks to Chris for the explanation of the dueling clipboards.
It's still frustrating, but since I still have a CS2 license from the dead G4 the current Mac replaced, I can try that (wonder if they can coexist), or maybe I could use an older Mac for this particular situation.
As for the .tif file, it was generated by a Mac OS 8.5 era image capture program that we are forced to use, and the analysis was that the app does not properly encode the TIFF tags to acceptable standards. Preview 5.0.2 just guessed right from the little information that was included - but it didn't work when tried with Preview 3.0.9 on an OS 10.4 Mac. So this was a unique situation.

  • After Effects CS6 copy paste from other apps is broken

    Hi there,
    After Effects just recently stopped accepting copied text from Microsoft Word (and many other applications incl Photoshop).
    Although it does allow me to copy into the AE GUI search bars, but still not from there into my composition text.
    I have tried a system restore to before the problem developed, however it did not work. I also found this (http://shisko.blogspot.co.nz/2008/01/copy-paste-bug-in-after-effects-fix.html), but the patches are for XP and Vista.
    I'm on Windows 7, running AE version 11.0.0.378, let me know if you have a workaround! This is very frustrating!
    Cheers,
    Brad

    Begin by installing the most recent updates and restarting your computer.

  • Outlook 2010 paste from other programs not working.

    Hi,
    Win 7 SP1 x86 w latest patches. Win lang. ENG
    Outlook 2010 SP1 x86 w latest patches. Office lang. ENG
    Regional (date/time and so on) settings EE (Estonia)
    I have about 6 users with same conditions.
    When I'm trying to copy - paste from other programs like IE9, Word, Excel I'm unable to paste into Outlook message body.
    It just wont paste.
    Typically, Outlook shows me "thniking circle" for a millisecond or rarely just hangs.
    There are some exceptions:
    1. I'm able to paste into To: field
    2. I'm able to paste into Subject: field
    3. I'm able to paste even into body if I copied text from Notepad.
    4. I'm able to paste into body when I copied text from another email.
    Additional information:
    Outlook default message format "Plain text" (Rich text, HTML - does'nt matter)
    What I'v tried so far and results:
    1. Repair Office installation trough "Programs and features" - NO LUCK
    2. Changed default paste behaviour from other programs to "keep text only" - NO LUCK
    3. Used SAFE MODE - this helps, paste SEEMS WORKING correctly. Based on my knowledge, SAFE mode mainly disables Add-ins. OK.
    Disabled all Add-ins in normal mode so Outlook shows that "No Active Application Add-Ins" - NO LUCK
    So, I'm out of ideas. I think that this problem starts after installing Office 2010 SP1
    I don't want to uninstall SP1 because for me it's not a solution (SP1 won't dissapear from the list of updates), ok.. agree, it may be
    temporary solution but at the end of the day, there must be something else.
    Any ideas?

  • Cannot copy paste from Outlook 2011 to anything

    I'm on 10.9.5 and cannot copy/paste text from emails in Outlook:Mac 2011 to other apps like textedit or textwrangler or MS Word. I've tried killing pboard in the Activity Monitor and from command line, and tried stopping and starting com.apple.pboard with launchctl. Restart has fixed this in the past, but that is not a good solution.
    Looking at other threads here and other places, it seems like a pervasive issue that goes beyond Outlook. Any other known fixes?  Thanks-

  • How can i Copy paste from e-mail to Notebook or textbook

    How can i Copy pasta from some Content of e-mail to the notepad or textbook or word?

    hold your finger down in the body of the mail - the part you want to copy. a blue box will comeup and offer to 'select/select all' or something like that. choose the appropriate choice. If you only want part of it that bubble will have two handles that allow you to drag out the selection box.
    then hold your finger down again and another bubble will come up offering to cut/copy the words. choose copy
    then navigate to your notes app (not sure about the textbook, depends on whether or not it support it) and hold your finger down in an empty text area. you'll get another blue bubble offering to paste it. choose that and the words should appear. then save as appropriate.

  • I cant copy/paste from an article to my web site, get a Mozilla Rich Text Editing demo page will not work.HELP

    Tried to copy/paste from an article to my web site and got a "cannot copy /paste " warning and was directed to a security perferences site that said that Mozilla Rich Text Editing demo page will not work.
    Tried to find my Firefox profile directory using the start menu and was directed to hit enter to go to web. Feel like i am getting run around.

    Let's start with something very basic, and that is, you do not need to use the paste button on most websites. The button just reads what is on your clipboard and sticks it into the form. You can do that yourself using Ctrl+v or right-click>Paste.
    For your security, I suggest using those standard Windows keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+x cut, Ctrl+c copy, Ctrl+v paste) or the context menu.
    Occasionally you will find a paste button that runs a clean-up script or otherwise does something useful. That is where the (admittedly a bit complicated) instructions come in handy.
    To open your active profile folder, you can use:
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Which help article are you using for the modifications?
    Finally, please be cautious in opening up your clipboard to sites. You may have stuff you copied from other pages or other programs that you do not want to share with most sites.

  • Extract All Embedded Files in All Folders and Save Each? Copy/Paste from PDF to Word?

    I have most of what I need here, but I’m missing 2 important pieces. 
    #1)  I want to copy/paste from all PDF files in a folder and paste the copied data into a single Word file. 
    It works fine if I have ONLY Word docs in my folder.  When I have PDF files and Word files, the contents of the Word files are copied in fine, but the contents of the PDF files seem to come in as Chinese, and there is no Chinese in
    the PDF, so I have no idea where that’s coming from.
    #2)  I want to extract all embedded files (in all my Word files) and save the extracted/opened file into the folder.  Some embedded files are PDFs and some are Excel files.
    Here the code that I’m working with now.
    Sub Foo()
    Dim i As Long
    Dim MyName As String, MyPath As String
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Documents.Add
    MyPath = "C:\Users\001\Desktop\Test\" ' <= change this as necessary
    MyName = Dir$(MyPath & "*.*") ' not *.* if you just want doc files
    On Error Resume Next
    Do While MyName <> ""
    If InStr(MyName, "~") = 0 Then
    Selection.InsertFile _
    FileName:="""" & MyPath & MyName & """", _
    ConfirmConversions:=False, Link:=False, _
    Attachment:=False
    Dim Myshape As InlineShape
    Dim IndexCount As Integer
    IndexCount = 1
    For Each Myshape In ActiveDocument.InlineShapes
    If Myshape.AlternativeText = PDFname Then
    ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(IndexCount).OLEFormat.Activate
    End If
    IndexCount = IndexCount + 1
    Next
    Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
    End If
    On Error Resume Next
    Debug.Print MyName
    MyName = Dir ' gets the next doc file in the directory
    Loop
    End Sub
    If this has to be done using 2 Macros, that’s fine. 
    If I can do it in 1, that’s great too.
    Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

    Hi ryguy72,
    >>When I have PDF files and Word files, the contents of the Word files are copied in fine, but the contents of the PDF files seem to come in as Chinese, and there is no Chinese in the PDF, so I have no idea where that’s coming from.<<
    Based on the code, you were insert the file via the code Selection.InsertFile. I am trying to reproduce this issue however failed. I suggest that you insert the PDF file manually to see whether this issue relative to the specific file. You can insert PDF
    file via Insert->Text->Object->Text from file.
    If this issue also could reproduced manually, I would suggest that you reopen a new thread in forum to narrow down whether this issue relative to the specific PDF file or Word application.
    >> I want to extract all embedded files (in all my Word files) and save the extracted/opened file into the folder.  Some embedded files are PDFs and some are Excel files.<<
    We can save the embedded spreadsheet via Excel object model. Here is an example that check the whether the inlineshape is an embedded workbook and save it to the disk for you reference:
    If Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.ClassType = "Excel.Sheet.12" Then
    Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.DoVerb xlPrimary
    Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.Object.SaveAs "C:\workbook1.xlsx"
    Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.Object.Close
    End If
    And since the Word object model doesn't provide API to save the embedded PDF, I would suggest that you get more effective response from PDF support forum to see whether it supports automation. If yes, we can export the PDF as embedded spreadsheet like code
    absolve.
    Hope it is helpful.

  • Problems doing copy/paste from Flash to Illustrator

    This is a problem I've had since Flash 8: when doing a
    copy/paste from Flash to Illustrator (on Windows), there's extreme
    degradation of the artwork, sometimes to the extent that no actual
    art is even copied. All the curves seem to be approximated with
    straight line segments, but at some point it just seems to give up
    even trying, leaving an unidentifiable blob for most of the object.
    As I said, sometimes it doesn't even copy anything at all -- all
    that shows up after pasting into Illustrator is an empty group.
    The weird thing is that this process worked fine in Flash MX
    2004. What could possibly have changed? I was sure with CS3 it
    would be fixed, but it wasn't. I haven't tried Illustrator CS4 yet,
    but copying from Flash CS4 to Illustrator CS3 produces the same
    problem.
    I've seen a few other reports of this problem in other
    forums, but I've encountered it on every install of Flash and
    Illustrator I've tried (admittedly, all Windows machines, but three
    or four different ones, both XP or Vista). Can anyone here confirm
    that this problem exists or doesn't exist on their computer? To
    test it, create a piece of art with plenty of curves and several
    colors in Flash, then copy and paste it into an illustrator
    document.
    If this problem is as widespread as my experience seems to
    indicate it is, why hasn't it been fixed in two major revisions of
    the software? Is Adobe even aware of it? If not, how can I let them
    know? I'm getting majorly sick of having to deal with it.
    Illustrator used to be a much larger part of my animation process,
    but now I can't use it how I really want to because of the bad copy
    and paste functionality.

    Hi,
    The integration between Flash CS3 and Illustrator means you
    can copy objects from Illustrator to Flash and i think if you copy
    from Flash to illustrator or Photoshop, you would not get a good
    results.
    You can solve your problem by exporting your Flash work as
    .AI.
    Your idea about the ability to copy from Flash to Illustrator
    is a good idea although Illustrator can not read some of the Flash
    imported information correctly. But it is still a good enahcement
    idea. There is a link where you can add suggestions but I do not
    remember it and I am replying using mobile, so my browsing
    capabilities is limited.
    I will try to post the link here when I got to my back normal
    connection
    Thanks alot!!

  • Copy & Paste from Illustrator to InDesign CS4

    Hi,
    I am aware that there are issues when copying/pasting from Illustrator to InDesign, in particular:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/6.0/WSa285fff53dea4f8617383751001ea8cb3f-6bdda.html
    I have the following problems:
    1- I copy and paste text from Illustrator to InDesign on the same platform and some (not all) of the text is converted to outline in InDesign. The same font is available to both applications. Why this behaviour?
    2- I copy and paste objects containing text from Illustrator to InDesign and some of the objects appear to have moved respective positions when pasted into InDesign. Is this to be expected?
    Are there solutions to these problems? Note that if I expand everything in Illustrator prior to copying and pasting into InDesign, none of these issues occur, but everything is obviously in outline form, with the limitations it entails.
    My clipboard settings are as indicated in the link above, but I have tried other settings with no more luck.
    (Important: Before pasting a graphic, make sure that Illustrator is configured to copy as AICB (see Illustrator Help). In InDesign, make sure that Prefer PDF When Pasting isn’t selected in the Clipboard Handling preferences. If these options aren’t set properly, the Illustrator graphic cannot be edited in InDesign.)
    It is not practical for me to create an Illustrator file for each of the Illustrator graphics and import those files via Place into InDesign. I must use Copy/Paste.
    I use CS4.
    Thanks.

    You can copy/paste from Illy to ID by selecting the text with the type tool in Illy and then pasting it into ID. You will not be able to maintain the formatting. If you want to maintain the appearance the text will be converted to outlines.
    If you need to get anything other than very simple objects from Illy to ID then you should save as AI and use the file > place command to place those objects as linked graphics into ID.
    Your closing statement is irrelevant. Whether you like it or not, this is the way it is.

  • Videos on my iPad are playing 2x. It seems to happen more prominently on videos via Safari and other apps like Fox News. Sometimes I can alter the speed by "scrubbing" through the video, but it is inconsistent. I have an iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1...thanks!

    Videos on my iPad are running 2x. I have restored every way possible but still no change. The videos are noticeably faster in Safari and other apps like my Fox News app. Sometimes I can change the speed back to normal by "scrubbing" the video, but that is inconsistent. I have an iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1 ...thanks for any and all help!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Not precise vector copy&paste from Illus cs4 to flash cs4

    Hi,
    does somebody knows if there is a solution to that or does somebody have an explanation to this ...
    I have a really complex shape made in Illustrator cs4 that I need to import in flash cs4. When I import my shape in flash , my shape doesn't keep the exactly, precisely same shape. I try to reduce the amount of point with illustrator with Object->path->simplify ... It's help but not enough. My shape is to complex to re-draw one by one every single points as the original.
    I did some test as in Flash cs3 and this problem dosen't exist. In cs4 you can test it do a circle , the smallest you can and zoom , you will see that the circle is not a circle anymore. (cs3 does't do it)

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.
