I can't copy and then paste from page. Anybody know why?

Having written a long article in Page, I find that when I try to copy and paste it doesn't work, When I paste the article disappears as if i deleted it. Anybody know why?

Hi Fourbrick,
Use Menu > Edit > Undo (command z) to undo and get back to how your document was before that article disappeared. When you are reasonably happy with what you have, Save the document.
More information will help. What are you doing to Copy and Paste? Please list all the steps. What kind of Pages document are you working on? Is it a Word Processing document or a Page Layout document? Tell us what Template you started with. What version of Pages? What did you select to Copy? To where are you Pasting?
Please reply.
Regards,
Ian.

  • How can I copy and then insert a column in Numbers 09

    I have a column in a Table that I would like to copy and then insert this column into another existing table on the same sheet. I don't want to copy and paste this, but rather insert it between existing columns.
    Thanks
    Eric

    Thanks SG,
    I have reverted back to 09' because of the nonexistant functionality of 3.0. I tried the option method you mentioned and it doesn't seem to work in 09'. Have you tried it in this version.
    Eric
    PS 3.0 has beautiful interface, perhaps they will add some functionality someday.

  • How do I copy and paste an image form the internet to Keynote. I have done this successfully in the past by selecting copy and then paste by using the right click function and now am unable to do so. I am thinking it is an outdate OS problem...not sure.

    How do I copy and paste an image from the internet to Keynote. I have done so successfully in the paste by using the copy and paste right click functions but am unable to do so now. That was about a year ago that I attempted that I was able to do this. Thank you for your help.

    Some images are copy-protected.
    If all else fails, you can make a screen shot of the image: 
    With the image visible in your browser, press CMD-Shift-4 and your cursor will change to crosshairs.
    Position the cross hairs at one of the corners of what you want to copy and drag to the opposite corner, then release the mouse. An copy of the image will be saved to your desktop.
    You can now edit and use this image.
    Be sure to respect copyrights.

  • Copy and then Past an Image into an APEX Application

    I need to allow my users to copy an image and then simply past it into my APEX application. Much like copy and past for text. Can this be done?

    No.. You would need some sort of client side app to do that - Active X, Silverlight, maybe Java, flash is possible but unlikely - Flex might.

  • I am having problems with copy and then paste function

    Within the past month, I noticed that I am having a problem with my copy and paste function on my IMAC.  I have an intel based IMAC with the Mac OS 10.5.8 running.  Is there anyone experiencing this problem?  Any assistance, recommendations?

    Then try a SMC reset:

  • On the IPad, can I copy text from an online source then paste to Pages?

    Many times from ebooks as part of my own personal research,
    I like to copy text from various sources
    then later review the text of the copied information to render my own conclusions.
    How do I copy from online sources and books and then paste into Pages?

    Only if the iBook is NOT DRM protected, whch means no for the majority of titles in iTunes. You can Copt from your own PDFs or from something like the iOS User Guide, some free titles, but not from most things.
    You will find that to be the case with most other book apps as well.

  • Can you copy and paste?

    Greetings.
    Can someone tell me if there is a way to just highlight a part of a clip in one sequence and paste it into another sequence?
    Normal;y what I do is use the blade tool on the part of the clip I want click on that to highlight the section, copy and then paste it into the new sequence. I've also added in and out points in the viewer, copied that and then paste into new sequence, but then I need to delete in/out points when I'm done.
    Just wondering if there is a short cut I'm missing.
    Thanks.
    Jonathan

    There's an even faster way to do it with one of the selection tools. Not at my edit bay now, but will post when I'm back in the studio. Basically, you can select just a portion of a clip to apply a filter or whatever to just that section of it. Forget the name of the tool, but learn it's keyboard shortcut and it's awesome. Again, will post when I'm back in the studio, unless someone else knows it right off the bat.

    Hi,
    "But it didn't work it's just turning them to black gray scale colors not what i was thinking about."
    If you want it to be colored, you'll need to create a color-palette for the 8bppIndexed bitmaps. The keyword for this process is "Color-Quantization".
    The whole yellow-green pie you get is from the wrong format. If you convert the 32bpp bitmaps to 24 bpp bitmaps, you loose the alpha channel ("transparency"). You can manually set one color to "transparent" with the mMakeTransparent-method
    of the Bitmap class, or simply use gif-images (they are 8bpp with a transparent "key"-color)

    You will be able to do copy & paste when 3.0 comes out this summer.

    No. You would make changes to the address book on your PC and then sync via iTunes.

  • How can I 'COPY AND PASTE' from my mouse and not use EDIT, Fiefox 4

    when I try to copy and paste in Firefox 4, it only works from EDIT on toolbar. This limits where I can use info between tabs or other windows. When I highlight a phase or link using mouse it says 'ADD THIS ETC' copy or paste doesn't appear. I want to use mouse to COPY AND PASTE

    Hi joao,
    If you have your PDF open in Adobe Reader, it's easy to select the text and copy it. Just drag to select the text that you want to copy and then choose Copy from the Edit menu. If you can't select the text, it may be that your resume PDF was created from a scanned document.
    If I misunderstood your question, please let me know.
    Best,

    The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
    You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
    Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
    I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

  • I can't copy and paste from Word to the Internet (Firefox or Chrome), but I can copy and paste from Internet to Word

    I suddenly can't copy and paste text from Word to the internet (Firefox or Chrome, email or other websites), but I can do the reverse. Any ideas? Copy and paste works between Word docs, and it works between internet sites (e.g., web page to email), just not from Word to the internet. Please help. I need to copy and paste my resume for an online job application.

    There are a range of different kinds of forms. For example, this site uses very simple controls that don't automatically convert Word's formatting to an online format. The site where you are trying to paste your resume probably works differently.
    What methods have you tried using to paste? Typically one of these will work:
    * Ctrl+v
    * right-click > Paste
    * Edit > Paste (from the menu)
    Some sites offer their own buttons to paste, but for security/privacy reasons, Firefox usually disables those.
