Copying Cells with references from Numbers to Pages

I'm trying to copy a row of cells to paste into a Pages doc. The row of cells are referenced to other cells in the Numbers sheet that are not being copied to the Pages doc. Once copied to the pages doc I get errors for the referenced cells.
Is there any way to get these cells to show the references? perhaps something like the Microsoft paste special?
Thanks in advance.

Hello
may you give details?
I'm not sure that I understood well.
Are you asking about formulas referencing cells in a single table or cells in a different table ?
If you want to show the formulas, select the group of cells, apply the format text, copy then paste in the Pages document.
If you want to paste the values, duplicate the source table copy the cells to transfer
paste values in th duplicate table
select agai
copy then paste in Pages.
For this task, I asked Apple for a slight change.
At this time, in Numbers we have
three menu items linked to the task:
copy
paste
paste values.
I wish that they would be replaced by
copy
copy values
paste.
Which this new set, there will be no true change in the way we would use Numbers itself but it would became easy to paste values in an other application like Pages or Keynote.

Copy and paste Values from Numbers to Pages

When I do simple copy and paste content from Numbers to Pages, I get a formula error message. All I want to copy and paste the values only, not the formulas, but on pages I cannot find a way to paste values only. When it tries to paste formula, it errors because some of the formulas references to other sheets on Numbers. What is the easy way to get values from Numbers tables to pages without passing formulas.
Or better yet! Is there a way to link tables to pages like charts with refresh capabilities so I don't have to copy and paste values to pages document every time Numbers table values changes?

J,
There is no Paste Special in OSX, anywhere. You can Paste Values from the Edit menu in Numbers when that would be necessary.
In such cases where you would use Paste Values in Numbers, you can use Paste and Match Style in Pages for the same result.
Sometimes it's so obvious to Pages what should be done that it will give you what you need automatically, but sometimes you need to use Paste and Match Style to get the values rather than an error triangle.

Copy a table from numbers to pages only with content

Dear all,
I'm rather new to iWork 08 and now i'm trying to copy a table from a numbers document to a pages document. When i do so it copies the table but with all the formulas and in pages it does not recognize what equals one cell to another. In other words, since the table in discussion has another table beneath it which is linked to with some simple formulas, and i copy only the above table it doesn't know how to link the results to the table below.
To clarify if i copy and paste the whole numbers worksheet containing both tables it pastes into pages in the correct way, all the data being there.
Having said that is there a way to copy only the content from numbers to pages?
I ask this because i can think of no other way to copy and paste properly the table in question.
You can clearly see here what i mean: http://gallery.me.com/bimmered#100024
What you see in the left is the pages document zoomed out to 75%. If you look closely you can see in the lower left of it the unkown data in the table. On the center right you can see the numbers document showing exactly like i want to appear in pages too.
On this pic you can see that copy and pasting the entire table works: http://gallery.me.com/bimmered#100031
So...what's the catch?
Thanks

Save the script as an Application or an Application Bundle: pasteValues.app
Move the newly created application into the folder:

Maybe you would have to create the folder Pages and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Copy a block of cells from Numbers in the clipboard.
Put the cursor where you wish in a Pages document (it may be a cell of a table).

The script will paste the values only.

How can I copy tables from Numbers to Pages without formula?

hi everyone
i need help
How can I copy tables from Numbers to Pages without formula in the cells?

Ok... I see your problem... when pasting into Pages, the formulas from Numbers are included. Perhaps this is really more of a Pages question (in which case I'm far from expert). A couple of ideas:
• In Pages, try "Edit"/"Paste and Match Style", which may insert tab delimited cell values (no formulas). Then, if you want the table format back, select these newly pasted tabbed values and use Page's "Format"/"Table"/"Convert Text to Table"/
• In Numbers, before copying, make a temporary table of the plain values first, then copy and paste that into Pages. To do this, select the range of cells you desire in the Numbers and "Edit"/"Copy". Then "Edit"/"Deselect All" and "Edit"/"Paste Values" and "Edit"/"Cut". Now just a table of values is on the clipboard and you can head over to Pages to paste.

How can I import diagramms and tables from numbers to pages?

I'm writing an essay, where I need diagramms and tables in it. I created some cool stuff in numbers and wanted to transfer it to pages. I thought it would be easier, but I don't have a clue how to just import the numbers stuff to my essay in pages. So I tried to copy it, but it looks not that way it looked in numbers. Another problem is: I can't layout the diagramms and tables the way I want (centered) and I need to write a description under it. I tried it with Textbox, but then I just can't group the textbox with the Table.
Somebody with an idea?
Thanks for your help!

To get your data from Numbers into Pages is just a simple matter of copying and pasting. Select the cells you want to place in Pages, copy, and then past into Pages. There are a couple caveats. 1) the table you paste into Pages will be pasted inline. You'll probably want to use the wrap Inspector and change it to floating. 2) if the table is too wide you'll have to get creative about how you arrange the data and 3) Numbers lets you insert check boxes, sliders, steppers, and popup menus and these won't show but the data in the cells will.
The charts will also copy and paste - again, you'll probably want to use the wrap inspector to switch them to floating objects. Having made the chart object(s) floating objects, you should have no trouble inserting your text box description, arranging them the way you want, and then grouping.
Just to make sure it worked the way I remembered, I just threw together a quick table and chart in Numbers and then copy/pasted it all into Pages.

I deleated numbers and pages files and apps on my iPhone and when I got to work all my files were gone from numbers and pages on my iPad. How do I get those files back on my iPad?

My storage was getting low on my iCloud, so I decided to delete my files from numbers and pages on my iPhone and delete the apps on my phone because i did not really use it on my phone. When I got to work and clicked on pages and numbers on my iPad the files were gone. I assume the files were deleted through iCloud. I did not want the files deleted on the iPad and would like to know how to get them back?

If you also backed up to your computer - you can restore from that backup - to retrieve the files. As far as I know- that should have no bearing on deleting them from iCloud - they should still be in that backup.
If you used iOS file sharing with your computer - and saved the files to your computer - you can retrieve them from there.
if the only place that the files were saved to was iCloud, I know of no way to get them back.

How to insert data from Numbers to Pages?

I want to use data from Numbers to insert in Pages. The same as Word and Excel can connect. When it works you can make 1 letter, and after connecting it correctly with Numbers you can make ten, hundred, thousand ... letters, all of them personalized. Who can help me? The manuals can't.

You are talking about Mail Merge.
Pages '09 did this with data from Numbers and from Address Book/Contents.
Apple removed this from Pages along with over 100 other features, but in Pages 5.5.1 it has now become possible to work around the limitation with some AppleScripting. So Apple has done what Apple does best these days, it takes something that was relatively simple and worked and turns into something complicated if not impossible, usually undocumented, and says they have simplified it.
Frankly it is not worth the time it takes trying to fix everything that is broken, there is just too much and it is constantly being reshuffled by Apple. Just stick with what you know or use LibreOffice [free] which has all this built in.

Error while posting a sales order created with reference from contract for

Hi,
I am posting a sales document( Type: WA) created with reference from contract document( type wk2) for delivery. The item category in the sales order of the Item is WAN. On posting this document for delivery I am getting the error as "Item category WAN is not defined". Please help me out how to resolve this issue.
Thanks
Jayant

Hi Jayant,
I think its value contract releated error,
You suppose to check material item category group through T.code-MM02 into sales2 tab and maintain VCIT,
and do item category assignment through T.code- VOV4.
plz.maintain like that,
WK2 -          -VCIT-         -           - WAN(contract item category),
wk2 -          -        -VCTR-          - WAN((contract item category),
you should also maintain same against your standard Sales Document type and for Standard Item category into VOV4,
WA(standard docu.type) -VCIT-                             -                -TAN(your standard docu.type item category),
WA(standard docu.type) -         -VCTR(item usage)-              -TAN(your standard docu.type item category),

Looking for advice on how to share pdf files with iPad from Mac. Pages seems to only recognize text. What app is recommended for pdf documents?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
If I understand your question, you want to read pdfs on your iPad, not create or edit.
Drag pdf files to the iPad icon in Finder while connected to your computer via the USB cable.
They will show up in the iBooks application
(If you don't already have iBooks, it's a free download from the App Store.)
Once installed, there are two buttons at the top left of the Bookshelf.
One is Books, the other is Collections.
Tap Collections, and you'll see Books and PDFs.
Tap PDFs and you're there.

Keynote document saved in icloud not updating with data from Numbers? is icloud the problem

keynote document saved in icloud not updating with data from Numbers? is icloud the problem.
If both files are held locally on the computer it looks like there is no problem however if you try and do it though icloud (ie your docs are saved on icloud) you dont get the "source" oprion besides the graph etc. Is this a but or a broken function due to the new implementation of icloud.

How can I paste a part of a sheet from Numbers in Pages as text, without the formulas.The reason I need this (and was used to in Office) so that I have the freedom to delete something in one cell (in pages document) without causing changes.

How can I paste a part of a sheet that I copied in Numers in a pages document without the formulas, simply as text. Used this a lot in Office. When I make some changes in the pages document. f.i. deleting a cell, I don't want to change other cells. Also when I copy a part of a sheet from Numbers and one of the cells that is part of the formula is not also copied, when I paste in Pages it shows as an error.
Hope that You can me help with this.

Leon,
There are two solutions to the first question, narrowing to one solution when you have a broken link causing an error.
Here's the "works always" solution.
Copy (Command-C) the table or range in Numbers
Click off the table on the blank canvas of the sheet.
Edit > Paste Values
Command-C
Switch to Pages
Command-V
Regards,
Jerry

Copy cells and past as picture in pages

How do I copy some cells that have calculations in them, then paste to Pages? In Excel when you go to paste, you get a menu paste as picture. Them you just get the cells as they look in Numbers. If you paste from Numbers it shows cell layout but the cells that have calculations in them only show a triangle error message. Any one know how to do this.

Hello Badunit
I always get the red triangle when I paste in Pages a table or a piece of table embedding references to cells which aren't in the pasted range.
This why once I asked Apple to make a small change in Numbers:
Replace Paste Values Only by Copy Values Only
With such change,
Copy - Paste in Numbers would not change
Copy - Paste Values Only in Numbers would be replaced by Copy Values Only - Paste in Numbers
Copy - Paste in Pages would not change
Copy Values Only - Paste in Pages would replace the trickery which we must use at this time.

I did a COPY of some text from a web page, and then did a PASTE into notepad.exe (Windows). The text from each line was duplicated -- on the line! Instead of "Fred", it became "Fred Fred".

I just recently installed Firefox for the first time. It seems nice and quick. The version is reported as: "10.0.1".
I wanted to save some text from a web page, so navigated to that page, selected the text, and pressed the Control-C combination to COPY the selected text to the buffer. For example, the text I selected looked something like this:
Harry
Ron
Hermione
Hagrid
Albus
NOTE: Each line of text has a small icon to the left of the text.
It is not reasonable to COPY and PASTE each line individually, as there can be hundreds of lines of data. I recall, however, that
doing a COPY and PASTE on this data into Microsoft's Excel will produce cells which have the icons included in the cell, but unfortunately one cannot can't get rid of them! At least I've never found a way to remove them, but that's another issue. :)
Once I'd done the COPY operation I switched to a Notepad window and did a PASTE operation. To my surprise, the text from each line was duplicated. It looked like this:
Harry Harry
Ron Ron
Hermione Hermione
Hagrid Hagrid
Albus Albus
Thinking that there might be something unusual about the web page I looked at the source, but it appeared "normal" -- that is, as expected.
Note: I have done this operation several times before, and have never seen this occur before.
Note: In the actual data some of the lines have quoted text in them. Curiously there is weird behavior on these lines. In some cases the entire line is shown only once. (These occur at the top of the line, and the quoted text is at the beginning of the name.)
When quoted text appears "later" in the name, in some cases the quoted text is duplicated, and in other cases the quoted text is missing altogether! I have also noticed an error with the quoted text, and so will be reporting that to the web site which generates the HTML.
Note that each line of "text" is "anchor text", so if I click on a name the browser navigates to a page for that name.
I believe that the problem is that the COPY operating in Firefox is not simply copying the visible text, but also the ALT=
Below is a sample of what the source HTML looks like:
<a class="lnk" target="_blank" href="http://details.aspx?id=Harry">
<img width="16" height="16" alt="Harry" class="tb_icon" src="http://.../Harry.gif"/>
<span>Harry</span></a>
<br/>
(Because of the true length of the lines in the source HTML, I have stripped out the actual URL of the site.)
To make sure I wasn't imaging this difference I repeated the process within Internet Explorer. In that browser I did not get duplicated data.
