Move (or copy or cut and paste) entire sheet from one document to another.

I have several sheets I want to move from one document to another and retain all formatting and spacing, etc.
What is the best way to do this?
Thanks

On the left of the screen is the list of sheets and tables and charts. Select the sheet. Copy. Paste into the same area (i.e., in the area where the sheets are listed) of the new document.

How do I copy and paste vector art from one layer to another, keeping all of its attributes?

When I copy a vector shape from one layer to another, the shape picks up the color attributes of an existing shape in the second layer (or sometimes only the outline of the shape appears). What to I do to avoid this from happening (I just just want to paste the shape in its original form and color)?

OK - I guess this is a little more difficult than I imagined...
Merge Layers rasterizes all the vector shapes - I want all the shapes to stay as vectors in the second (pasted) layer.
Merge Shapes changes the color of the copied vector shape - I don't want to change the color
Shape Layer via Copy [Ctrl] +[J] copies the layer containing the vector shape, but doesn't paste it into the second layer
Any other ideas? Or, is it possible that PhotoShop doesn't support varied colored vector shapes on the same layer? I am coming from an InDesign background, and there was no issue having many different (colored) vector objects on the same layer.

How can I 'cut and paste' a part of one image to another?

I have this program the creates great syfi looking planets and some other cool stuff. I creates them
on a solid black background. I'm hoping there is a way to cut out just that planet and paste it onto
the sky of another picture. I don't want the black background just the planet. I can go in and make
the edges look nice after it's done. But I don't know how to do it :-(
Thank You.

1. use the selection tool(s) of your choice to select the planet. It helps to give the selection a one or two pixel feather to avoid a cutout look (Select>Feather).
2. Copy it (ctrl+C in windows, command+C on a mac)
3. Paste it (ctrl+v in windows, command+v on a mac)
You will get better results if both images have the same ppi before you start (image>resize>image size. If you need to make a change for one image, make sure Resample Image is OFF.) You can use the Move tool to arrange/resize the object once it's in the destination photo.

Problems copying and pasting multiple slides from one captivate to another.

I have been able to copy and paste several slides into
another captivate and suddenly this has stopped working. I am using
the ctrl key to select multiple slides (a set of 3) and the using
the Edit drop-down to select copy slide. Then, I click on the other
captivate and click paste slides. It is only bringing 1 slide, the
first one, and not the 2nd and 3rd... any ideas. I've had another
set of eyes look over my shoulder... and we're both scratching our
heads.
Also, for some reason the text entry boxes are being copied,
but the failure caption associated with it does not come along. It
also copied the button but lost the association with the text entry
box. WTH?

This might work, this might not. I have copy paste problems
on a regular basis and all that works for me is closing Captivate
down and then re open and continue. At worst, a reboot tends to
solve this glitch in my experience.
Good Luck

some people have reported issues trying this with content not being found etc...
On a sidenote: I am pretty sure that in some of those cases what actually happened was that people opened Logic immediately after installing or copying content, and then expecting Logic to find this, but the Spotlight index (which EXS24 and NI's Kontakt use to find samples) was probably still busy updating.
This can take a few minutes up to half an hour or more (e.g. after installing big sample ibraries).
A pulsating dot inside the magnifying glass Spotlight symbol, on the top right corner of the screen, indicates that the Spotlight Index is being rebuilt or updated. Other indications are active MDS and/or MDWorker processes; those can be seen in Activity Monitor.
(these processes are usually open, the CPU % is what matters)

How do I copy e-mail and e-mail settings from one Mac to another?

I am fairly new to Mac and have been using a Mac mini for a few months. I have just purchased an iMac i7 and have used the migration tool to move apps and files over. However it didn't do anything with my e-mail accounts. I have several accounts setup on the Mini that I need moved over. I can't import because e-mail is not setup in the i7. Every time I open Mail on the i7 it wants me to setup an account. Is there anyway to bring the e-mail accounts and data over to the i7 without setting up Mail on the i7 first?

I agree with Antonio, but since we don't know if the Mail app on the Mini is the same version as the one on your new iMac, I'd err on the side of caution and allow Mail on the new iMac to set up; additionally, I'd prefer to start with a new preference file. In order to make it easier, you could take screenshots of all the account windows on the Mini. You can then use those to enter the info when setting up Mail on the new iMac.
After Mail is set up, quit Mail. Go to the location outlined by Antonio (Users-Library-Mail) and compare the folders with the folders from the old Mail app; i.e. the new Inbox folder should be empty -> remove that (drag to trash) and replace it with your old Inbox folder (same with Sent, etc). If you have old folders not found in the new location, add them.
When done, open Mail and your folders and emails should all be there.

How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells? In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly. When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up. How can I do this?

How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells? In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly. When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up. How can I do this?
For example: I have formulas in columns D and F that relate to columns C to CU
If I want to move one column from one position to another (say S to T), the formula loses the colums that was moved, i.e. it doesn't recognize it has moved, rather sees it as deleted... How can I do this without distorting the formula?

Thanks for the feedback.
If I often urge askers to look at the available resources, it's because a large range of questions asked in the forums are already answered in these documents.
As they are PDFs, they are easy to search in.
CAUTION
Download them while they are available.
Given what is delivered with iBooks Author, I'm afraid that we will not get such easy to use documents.
Searching infos in the iBooks Author documentation available on line is awfully cumbersome and a lot of embedded links are wrongly flagged this way. In the Help files they aren't links but underlined strings.
It seems that the tool used to generate the web pages was wrongly configured.

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.

How do I cut and paste a picture from the Internet to PowerPoint on a Mac?

HHow do I cut and paste a picture from the Internet to PowerPoint on a Mac?

Kind of depends on where the picture is. Usually you can just select it and if you can move it you can drop it onto the desktop.
You should always check usage rights when you use a picture off the Internet. If it's for a school project or personal then there should be no problem.
Pictures that require a royalty fee are usually marked.

I use classical Hebrew for my work, and Pages will only display English characters even with a Hebrew font selected. If I cut and paste Hebrew characters from another document, as long as the font is supported, it will appear in Pages. If I type it won't continue in Hebrew. I have tried downloading several fonts, including those from professional societies, but the only way to get Hebrew in my document is to cut and paste. Does anyone know how to fix this? I use an older MacBook running OS 10.9.1. I used to do my Hebrew work in Word, but it is no longer supported by Mac OS.

Just clarifying:
Pages '09 has bad support for Hebrew, Arabic etc but will accept pasted text.
Pages 5 has much better support but with bugs.
If you have columns they are in the wrong order ie Text starts in the left column and ends in the right column.
If you type English into Hebrew text it tends to fall in the wrong position eg instead of to the left of Hebrew punctuation it goes to the right.
As Tom recommends the only real solution on the Mac is Mellel.

btw Tell Apple, they are amazingly slow to fix this running sore which has been broken since RtoL was supposedly introduced in OSX 10.2.3 over a decade ago.

I cut and pasted a description from the Internet. It posted as a link in iPhoto. It seems to have made a global change--all my descriptions are now blue, underlined, and Times Roman 12 rather than Arial white. How can I get this back to the default?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Copy/Move Layerset From One Document To Another Without Flattening

Hello,
Does anyone know how to move a layerset from one document to another using JavaScript ExtendScript, but without having to flatten the layers first as I still need to edit them after the move.
Many Thanks,
James

This requires that you have the the two documents open the first document open is the one you are copying from with the layer/layers selected.
activeDocument=documents[0];
dupLayers();
function dupLayers() {
    var desc15 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var ref12 = new ActionReference();
        ref12.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
    desc15.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref12 );
        var ref13 = new ActionReference();
        ref13.putName( charIDToTypeID('Dcmn'), documents[1].name );
    desc15.putReference( charIDToTypeID('T   '), ref13 );
    desc15.putInteger( charIDToTypeID('Vrsn'), 2 );
    executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Dplc'), desc15, DialogModes.NO );

[CS3 JS] Move pages from one document to another?

First, a brief explanation of what I am trying to do. I have several individual chapters that I am including in an INDD book. However, I also want to be able to allow those individual chapters to stand alone, meaning that I want to add a cover/title page to each chapter file (these two pages would be placed before the current page 1 of each chapter).
My preference would be to write a script that would open the cover/tp file and open the first chapter file; this part is no problem. Where I am running into trouble however, is the second step: moving the cover/tp pages (2 pages) over into the chapter file.
Manually, I would open Cover.indd, activate the "move pages" menu, "Move pages: 1-2", "Destination: Before_Page 1", "Move to: Chapter1.indd".
With over 100 chapters in the book, however, I would prefer to automate the process. I have looked into the Page.move and PageItem.move elements, but both look like they would require a location in the current document (either in (x,y) form or using "AT_BEGINNING".
If I cannot get this to work, I will likely try to insert two blank pages, then cut/paste with a script, but I would prefer the "move" functionality, if it is possible.
A couple of answers to potential questions:
I can't simply place the INDD cover file b/c it uses a text variable to pull the chapter name; this personalizes each stand-alone chapter.
Same answer to why I can't just slap the 2-page .pdf on the front of each. I need the text variable to still be active.
Has anyone tried to move pages from one document to another using scripting? I tried to explain what I am trying to do, but if it doesn't make sense, I can try again. :)
thanks!
Matt

ok here we are
I get a raw skeleton that you will have to adjust but it's functional.
Use a PDF for placement as you can specify the page that you want to place.
I don't know if you can do the same for indesign files.
So basically, it starts adding 2 pages and placeing the pdf in the same time.
After that, it creates the textVariable and the frame that will receive it.
Here you are:
//If a document is open
if(app.documents.length!=0)
var ad = app.activeDocument;
//Pages placement
for(i=0; i<2; i++)
//Add 2 pages on top of the document;
var tmpPg = ad.pages.add(LocationOptions.BEFORE, ad.pages[0]);
//Here you place your pdf
app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = i;
tmpPg.place(File(cover.pdf), false)
//You should specify page x and page y but ain't found yet the way to go.
//Text variable creation
//Check if the textVariable named "txtVar" does not already exist...
if(ad.textVariables.item("txtVar")==null)
//if not found, create the text variable named "txtVar"
var txtVar = ad.textVariables.add();
txtVar.variableType =VariableTypes.CUSTOM_TEXT_TYPE;
txtVar.name = "txtVar";
//Set the contents of the text variables to the string "test"
ad.textVariables.item("txtVar").variableOptions.contents = "test";
//these coordinates don't care aboutyour units but you may adjust them to your needs
var y1 = ad.marginPreferences.left;
var x1 = ad.marginPreferences.top;
var y2 = y1+5;
var x2 = x1+25;
var myFrame = ad.pages[0].textFrames.add({geometricBounds:[y1,x1,y2,x2]});
//Set the contents of the frame to the text variables "txtVar"
myFrame.contents=ad.textVariables.item("txtVar").variableOptions.contents;
//You may want to stylize the txtVar
//In this case, either you use a existing characterStyle or you create one in the script

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
