I have to paste/special/text when copying from Firefox and pasting in Word or Excel

When copying data from a table on IE, I just have to paste (ctrl-v), and the data is pasted into appropriate separate cells.
In Firefox, I have to "paste special" and click "text" to separate the fields. Otherwise, all the data is pasted into a single cell or in the case of Word, one paragraph.
Is there a setting that can be designated to allow paste as in IE or as within Word or Excel?

The [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1852/ Dafizilla Table2Clipboard] extension should help with this.

  • Copy and pasting - maintaining content integrity when copy from pdf and pasting to word doc

    My firm is currently using an older version of Acrobat to transfer portions of medical report to a word document format. We are only taking select excerpts and not exporting the whole document. As of now, i copy and paste the needed piece to word but the integrity of the transfer is terrible. Many misspelled words, wrong spacing, characters replacing letter, etc...We are curious if this issue could be resolved by upgrading to the latest version of Acrobat. Thanks for your help!

    If you could give the version of Acrobat and post some before and after screen shots it would help us understand the issue (yes, avoid any personal info). Was the original PDF created as a scan? If so, is it clearscan or searchable? There are many issues that are hard to comment on because we don't know how the PDF was produced or what has been done to it in the meantime. It may be that an upgrade would help, but not necessarily. If you have a spare machine available, you could always download and install the trial to see if it would resolve the issue -- I would not install the trial over your current version.

  • 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).

  • Why does text I copy from a .pdf to a Word document, not copy correctly words containing the combinations 'tt' or 'ti'?

    When I copy text from a .pdf to a Word document, all words containing the combination 'tt' or 'ti' come up as blank boxes,or question marks.  How can I correct this?

    To comment a bit further, several letter combinations like tt and ti as well as many combinations with f are given as a single character in some languages and apparently you do not have that special character on your system.

  • Copy from safari and paste somewhere words is hard to use

    I want ot copy a art clip from safari and then paste it somewhere  I have word but it is very hard to use   I have numbers and the art clip can not be sized
    so where can I paste the art clip and be able to put in text and size, color, text, etc  then print

    Insert a Shape into Numbers first (from the drop down Shapes menu in the top of Numbers).
    Then drag the image from Safari into the Shape you have created (not into a cell in Numbers).
    You can then resize the shape and if you click on the shape you can adjust the mask which will control how much of the image you can see.

  • I have windows 7 64bit. When i installed firefox and then java, i do not have java tm platform or any java plugin. I can't watch free movie's online!!

    As i told i have Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit version. I install java and have problems with Java Deployment Toolkit and Java(TM) Platform SE. It won't show in add-on. I cant watch movies. When I play movie it says java is missing but when I use IE I can watch some movies. I try reinstaling Java and even reinstall Windows. But problem was still there. I run java check (from Firefox) to see if java is installed and it confrmed. I even try diferent versions of Java and Mozilla. I even use JDK and JRE. I install java for 64bit and mozilla is also for 64bit version of system.
    I have another laptop with 32 bit version and everything works great. Installation procedure was same (only used 32bit versions of softwares).
    When I go to control panel and java options (windows 64bit) enable java content in your browser is marked. But in advanced tab default java for browser (mozilla family) is unmarked. And when I mark box and leave (apply then ok) and return box is empty. It wont confirm. In 32bit version of laptop i have alsou java plugin but in 64 bit it is not there. Here is a picture what I was talking about. This is on windows 32 bit for 64bit is some just box for mozilla family is empty and under that java plugin do not exist.

    you don't have to reinstall firefox or java, you can just download and install the 32bit-java next to your currently installed java version. it should then be picked up by firefox and be displayed under firefox > addons > plugins...

  • What is the "iOS rich content paste pasteboard type" when copying from Safari?

    When I copy text from a website in Safari, two pasteboard items are created. This is the output of [pasteboard items]
            "Apple Web Archive pasteboard type" = < [...archive...] >;
            "public.text" = "pages of a journal,";
            "iOS rich content paste pasteboard type" = <694f5320 72696368 20636f6e 74656e74 20706173 74652070 61737465 626f6172 64207479 7065>;
    What is the "iOS rich content paste pasteboard type" all about? What does the data actually represent? Is this representation ever used by other apps?
    Thanks.

    Since your problem is not connected to your hardware, it would probably be better to post it in the software forum for the OS X version you are using:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os?view=discussions
    MS Word's spellcheck is generally independent of OS X, so you may want to also search/ask about how to keep its language setting from changing in the forum devoted to that product  (if you have not done so already):
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macword
    I think there is most likely no way to change the way Safari and Clipboard behave.  The best chance is with Word.

  • When printing from Firefox (and Thunderbird) the 'Portrait' and 'Landscape' dimensions are reversed, resulting in compressed images.

    Using Windows 7, home edition. In print preview, when in Portrait mode, the page to be printed is shown in a vertical format, but the page layout is horizontal. It is reversed in Landscape.
    Prints come out compressed and unreadable.

    It seems that this is a Firefox bug, dating back to 2002, if you can believe that. Apparently, nobody who knows enough to fix it is available to work on it. You can check out the official bug report at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org//show_bug.cgi?id=154892

  • I used to copy from emails then paste to my word processor, now there is no edit option on firefox. why?

    there isn't an edit option in firefox. therefore i can't copy from email and paste to word processor. why?

    You can find the Copy, Paste, and Cut buttons next to Firefox > Edit (and in its sub menu) and in the regular Edit menu on the menu bar (press F10 if the menu bar is hidden).<br />
    The buttons next to Firefox > Edit are enabled if there is something to do with them, just like with the toolbar buttons.<br />
    You can find the Copy, Paste, and Cut toolbar buttons in the toolbar palette in the Customize window and drag them on a toolbar.<br />
    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

  • Can't shown chinese text when copy & paste data from server to Outlook, Word & notepad, etc.( Office 2013)

    Can't shown chinese text when copy & paste data from server to Outlook, Word & notepad, etc.( Office 2013)

    Hi
    As per the information and details provided by you, when you copy & paste a data from server to Outlook, word, notepad, then you do not receive the Chinese text.
    For Outlook, please follow these steps: -
    Close and reopen Outlook in your western locale (or switch the windows system to your Western locale if you changed that),
    Manually change the message from Western to Chinese encoding, which you can do in all versions up to Outlook 2007.
    If you want to stay in your Chinese locale in Outlook 2007, then:
    After you hit reply, go to the Option tab > More Options.
    In the Encoding drop-down menu, select the Chinese encoding you are working in (Not the encoding used by the person who will receive the message)
    Note:
    To set the Chinese locale in all versions up to 2007 the controls are under.
    Tools > Options. In Outlook 2010 File tab > Options > Advanced > International options.
    Unicode (UTF-8)
    is a good setting for multilingual users.
    Check the
    Auto select 2007)/ Automatically select (2010) encoding box.
    I hope this information will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards

  • I want to create an external video widget with iAd. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.

    i want to create an external video widget with iAd to use in an iBook. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.
    hope someone can help!

    May have something to do with whether or not the URL can be reached while building your widget.  I've got a video on the web. When I enter the URL into the field for the video object and click to another field,  the URL is replaced with some text indicating that it is accessing the video then updates itself to displaying just the name of the video file.
    It shows just fine in preview and I can see the full path to the video when I export the widget so it should work for you. 
    Is the video accessible from your Mac while you're laying out your widget?

  • 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?
    But I use CopyPaste Pro all the time - hope that it can be sorted sooner rather than later
