Cut and paste from web to Word or Excel
I have Windows 8, Word 2007. Seems with latest update I can no longer paste from web into word or excel. Cut item shows in clipboard but will not paste into the document. Can someone help?
Problems with copy and paste are usually caused by some poorly designed add-in. You should troubleshoot for add-ins; follow the steps for startup and COM add-ins in the article at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/921541/en-us/.
More specifically, if you are seeing a "black blob" when pasting, see the Black Blob Solution at

Cut and paste from Safari to Word doc please Help!!!!!
I am trying to take a map from the internet via either Mapquest or Rand Mcnally maps and put it in a Word document, and I cannot figure out how to do it. I have tried to highlight the map and cut and paste it in the document but this is not working, if anyone out there knows how to perform this function, please let me know as soon as possible.
Thanks
Chris KnopHi knopper, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
This should work. :~)
1] cmd shift 4 brings up a cross hair.
2] drag cross hair across the map and release.
3] see the png file, maybe jpg, on your desktop or where you have system store new things.
4] open to make sure its what you want.
5] copy it into word.
If that works, I like Green or Gold stars. See Apple info on the email alerts.
Thanks, Joyous Computing, JP -
How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?
You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

Cut and paste from Word into Mail
I have an earlier post where I thought I had solved this problem, but now it's back with a twist:
I can cut and paste from Word, but after a few cut and pastes, it seems as if I can only paste the last successful section of text: copying new text from word seems to work, but when pasting into Mail, only the previous section of cut and pasted text appears.
I have checked the preferences within Mail, and they are set for plain text... so there should be no problem, yes?
I also tried quitting and then restarting Mail, but had the same problem...
Any advice?Thanks, aqua*star -
I just checked the "archiving" and "back-up" suggestions in the Mail "Help" window and got the following info:
Mail preferences and messages
Your Mail accounts, rules, signatures, and Smart Mailboxes preference settings can easily be backed up. Tip: All Mail-related preference files should be backed up or restored as a group.
To back up:
Note: These steps back up Mail preferences, but do not back up Mail messages (emails), although you can do that with the .Mac Backup utility. See below if you want to manually back up Mail messages (mailboxes).
Create a uniquely-named folder on your desktop (or other favorite location). For example, you might call it "Mail Prefs Backups May152005" (adding a date is a good idea).
Quit Mail if it's running.
In the Finder choose Home from the Go menu.
Open the Library folder.
Open the Preferences folder.
Copy the "com.apple.mail.plist" file to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the file. Don't remove the original file from its current location (this file contains your Mail accounts information).
Close the Preferences folder.
Open the Mail folder.
Copy the "MessageRules.plist" file to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the file (this file contains your Mail rules).
Copy the "SmartMailboxes.plist" file to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the file (you guessed it, this file contains Smart Mailboxes information).
Finally, copy the Signatures folder to the folder you made in step 1 by Option-dragging the folder. (Your custom signatures, if you use them, are stored here.)
To restore: Just move all of the copies of the files and folders from your uniquely-named folder to the original locations from which they came, as listed above.
It looks like I can save and restore the Mail rules separately from the plist... -
Italics and boldface not preserved in cut-and-paste from InDesign CS3
This is using Mac InDesign CS3 5.0.1 and Mac Dreamweaver CS3
9.0.
When cuting-and-pasting text from InDesign CS3 to Dreamweaver
CS3, basic text formatting such as italics and boldface are not
preserved for me. When I select Edit, Paste Special in Dreamweaver,
the "Text with structure plus basic formatting (bold, italic)" is
not selectable when the clipboard holds InDesign-origin text.
If I paste the same InDesign text into Word, the formatting
is preserved and if I then cut-and-paste from Word into
Dreamweaver, boldface and italics are preserved. But I don't want
to cut-and-paste everything twice!
Do others experience this too?

Workarounds:
1) Export from InDesign as eps or PDF, or
2) Copy paste into Photoshop as a Smartobject, and then double click the layer to edit smart object (it will open in Illustrator)
I know, it's a pain.

Cannot Cut and Paste From Excel
I am trying to simply cut and paste from Excel into the Xcelsius spreadsheet. Even though the user manual indicates to copy from Excel and right click where you want to paste, the Paste and Paste Special functions are greyed out. It is almost like the cells are locked or protected somehow. I selected Formal Cells -> Protection and unlocked the cells but still nothing. Any ideas? Excel 2007
Hi,
It seems your workbook was locked. Try the following... it might help you.
I know some of you out there have hit this problem in the past and now we have a workaround...
If you try to add/remove/modify a worksheet in the Xcelsius embedded Excel and you can't do it.
1. Start to unprotect the workbook:
Office 2007 (Ribbon menu in Xcelsius or Excel). Select Review > Protect Workbook > Protect Structure and Windows.
Office 2003 (menu only in Excel). Select Tools > Protection > Unprotect Workbook.
2. You will be prompted for a password.
3. This is the password (the O is an uppercase o):
fazOh1+u
4. Click OK and the spreadsheet should no longer be locked.
Let me know if still your problem exists.

i am trying to cut and paste from a program, IEP DIRECT, and normally on my PC I have no problems; however, when using my MAC the formatting gets all mixed up
If you refer to this
https://www.iepdirect.com/iepdotnet/hub/index.html
then they have an issue with mac version.
At a first glance, their website is optimized for Windows only, it displays badly in Safari, perhaps it would be better in Firefox or other browser. -

Quick way to format text cut and pasted from a web browser into Pages?
I work a lot by cutting and pasting text from web browsers into my word processor.
When I was using Word, I had built a very useful macro that allowed me to re-format the font, font size, colour, line spacing etc, as well as to remove hyperlinks, all by pressing one keyboard shortcut.
Is this possible in Pages? I've tried Paste and Match Style, and Paste Paragraph Style, but they only seem to solve half the problems.
Surely this must be a common problem? I've had a look in the discussion forums, but can't find anything...arthur,
I'm not having any trouble deleting links. Click on View > Show Invisibles. If there's a space following the link, put your cursor to the right side of the space, click, then drag to the left so that you highlight the link. Then just hit delete.
Or, if you want to have a web or email address in your copy without it being a live link, highlight it, then click on the Link inspector > Hyperlink button > and UNcheck +Enable As Hyperlink+.

Copy and paste from pdf to word

When I cut and paste pictures from pdf files into my word documents using my mac, the pasted content appears colored black and I am not able to select what I truly mean to. I am able to do this easily with a pc - but prefer to do it with my laptop.
Thanks for your help,

Cut and Paste from Reader to Outlook
Hi,
Here is my problem - hopefully someone can help me out with a solution
I have had a flyer designed by someone which is essentially in 2 parts - an image at the top and some narrative at the bottom. It has been converted from Corel Draw into a .pdf file
I want to send it out in the body of an email (not as an attachment)
I have tried to cut and paste it into the body of the email but only the image gets copied and not the narrative.
When I try to select the full area by going to the top left and thenleft click and hold and drag the range down to the bottom right it all appears to be selected as it all goes into shadow - however when I release the left mouse button the area in shadow jumps back so that it only covers the image part and not the narrative part.
Any help gratefully received...Regards....JohnHi knopper, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.

Cut-and-paste from Windows notepad to webforms text item?
I can copy text from a Windows program such as notepad and paste it into a text item ina a client/server version of a form, but if I run the same form over the web, I lose the cut-and-paste functionality. Is it possbile to cut-and-pastee text into a webform text item?
Thank you!
TomYou can do this on the web but yu require an extra step. Have a look at the browser setting - you need to ensure that
you are able to run unsigned applets.
Hope this helps.
