I want to copy and paste a chart from an email into Pages on MAC. I only get the text.  Not the chart.

I recieved an email that included a chart that I want to put in a document.  When I copy and paste the chart in Pages it only shows the text without the chart.  This shouldnt be too hard but I have no idea why it will not copy this in the format or image that it is.  Thanks.

This is on OSX 10.9.3 MAC Pro
Pages version 5.2
I'm sorry I do not know how to determine the format of the chart.  It was sent to me in the body of an email...it was not an attachment.  Is there a way for me to find that out?
I actually tried both ways...I copied just the chart & then I copied the whole body of the email that included the chart.  Either way, the chart-lines/box did not paste.  Only the text.
Thanks Peter!  I'm somewhat new with MAC

    Try just Opening the Word .doc from within Pages and see if that gets closer to what you want, then copy the chapter you want from the Pages version.

    Firefox doesn't store the bookmarks as separate files in a folder, but uses a sqlite database file with the name places.sqlite.
    You will have to export those favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.
    Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"

  • I want to copy and paste a long list of phone numbers into the 'to' field of messages. Ideas?

    I want to copy and paste a long list of phone numbers into the 'to' field of messaging. All it does is become one long number instead. I have even tried commas in between. Any ideas? (They are NOT contacts)

    That's not how iMessage was designed to work.  It works with your contacts.  You start typing a phone number or email address and you'll se a list of hint from auto-complete.  After you select a suggestion, start typing another address.  If the addresses you want are not in your contacts, you'll need to enter each of them manually.

    Copy and paste? What app are you using?
    When you tap on an image and select copy that usually copies the URL of the image.
    Save image copies the image to your Camera Roll.
    Most apps have an Insert choice that inserts an image from your Camera Roll into the document you are working on.
    But if you tell us which app you are using, we should be able to provide more exact info on how to get done what you want.

  • How do you copy and paste a photo from the internet without a mouse?

    Pointing, clicking, and getting around
    When you move your mouse or finger on a trackpad, you control a pointer (also known as a cursor) that moves across your screen. The pointer allows you to select and interact with the various items on your screen, including selecting files, clicking buttons, dragging sliders, and so on. Sometimes the pointer may look like a hand, a crosshair, an I-beam, or another icon, depending on what you're doing and the application you're using.
    For example, if you're using Safari to view this webpage and move the pointer across it, notice that it turns into an I-beam when you move it over text or a text field. When you see this, you can usually interact with the text or field below it. When you move the pointer over a button or link, the pointer turns into a hand, letting you know that you can click on the item.
    Depending on what you're doing and what application you're using, your pointer (far left) may change appearances
    Clicking your mouse button or trackpad button once allows you to select the item that your pointer is on. In other words, if your pointer is on a file's icon, clicking once will select it. If the pointer is on a button or link, clicking once will activate it. If your pointer is on a text field, clicking once highlights the field and allows you to start typing text in it.
    If you want to open a file, folder, or application, click your mouse button or trackpad twice. This is known as double-clicking. In general, you'll need to double-click items if you want to open them from a Finder window or the desktop. The exception to this is opening stuff from the Dock—just click once on an icon in the Dock to open it.

  • Is there a way that you can copy and paste blade effects from one clip to the other so that the cuts are an exact duplicate of each other?

    Is there a way that you can copy and paste blade effects from one clip to the other so that the cuts are an exact duplicate of each other?

    The same cuts that I have in this clip that i performed with the blade tool, I want to duplicate, copye, paste and apply to another clip. I want the cuts to mimic and be an exact same. I wish i could highlight the clip, click copy and then highlight the other clip and then click paste and the cuts apply.

    hi i can't seem to copy and paste pdf files from preview to a microsoft word document. it always comes up with nonsense characters in the word document. how do i fix this? thanks in advance

    Hi,
    The quickest way to do this (tested with OS 10.8.2, MS Word 2011) is in one line:
    tell application "Microsoft Word" to close every document whose name begins with "book"
    The reason why your script doesn't work is that you aren't specifying to Word which document you want it to close.
    So, changing one line ought to do it:
    close document incrementvalue -- instead of "close document"
    But... when you close a document, you change the document count. Document 2 becomes document 1, document 3 becomes document 2 etc. So eventually you'd get a message saying "The object you are trying to access doesn't exist".
    Because of this, if you want to do it in a repeat loop, you have to work backwards:
    tell application "Microsoft Word"
      set doc_count to count documents
      repeat with x from doc_count to 1 by -1
      if name of document x begins with "book" then close document x
      end repeat
    end tell
    Hope this helps.

  • Copy and paste file names from images

    I want to copy and past the names of multiple photoshop files into an email. In 10.3.9 I could select them all and copy and paste..now with mail 2 and 10.4.3 when I do that it actually pastes the image file themselves..is there something that I can change pref wise to get it back to the old way..very time consuming this way. I don't want to haveto do them individually..I hope!

    Hi CGI,
    I've been playing with it and the only workaround I found so far is:
    Drag to select the files in the finder window
    Command C to copy
    Open TextEdit
    Go to Edit>Paste and match style
    You will now have the list of file names in Textedit
    Select all and copy to your email message.
    I tried to figure out an automator workflow for it but since I have never used Automator I was kind of lost.
