Paste from Word doesn't work

In order to paste text from a Word document into a
DreamWeaver CS3 html page, I must first paste the text into the
Macintosh program TextEdit. Then I select all, copy, click into the
html page and paste. Works fine. I checked my DW preferences,
changed them to each of the 4 choices and all is the same. The
Paste and Paste Special Edit Menu items are black (not grayed out)
but when selected, nothing happens.
Any ideas about what is causing this problem? Thank
you.

It's a known bug with CS3.

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...

Edit in Photoshop from Lightroom doesn't work; Automate Photomerge doesn't work

Edit in Photoshop from Lightroom doesn't work.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
Likewise, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... I pick all the images for the PHotomerge and hit "okay," but nothing happens. Makes me think it's Photoshop, not Lightroom, that is all wacky.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 and reinstalled. No change. I also tried dumping PS preferences, but that didn't affect a thing, either.

None of my "Edit In" worked with the pictures in Lightroom for a particular folder. I expanded the 2014 folder and found that two subfolders had a "?" in front of the 2014-07-04" and another. In other words, the folder was missing. After I found the missing folders using the Lightroom "Find Missing Folder" option, I was able to use the "Edit In" menu item. The 2014 folders weren't expanded at first, so I didn't see the ? marks in front of them. With the missing folders, Lightroom's "Edit In" option was basically telling me there was no picture to "Edit In." Howerver, I have Previews and Smart Previews made when I import picture files into Lightroom. So, the "pictures" showed in the slide strip on the bottom, and also in the display in "expand," but it was actually only showing the previews I had built, not the actual missing pictures in the missing folders. I had accidentally moved some directories using Windows Explorer, and I didn't realize my "happy fingers" moved them outside of Lightroom. Of course, Lightroom has no way of knowing I moved them, and just shows the "?" before the missing folder name. After expanding the root folder, then knew what to do. Fixed it easily. It was frustrating, and took about 20 minutes to see the problem. And that fixed the greyed-out "Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014, and all the other plug-ins were greyed out too.
Hope this fixes your problem.
Mike

How to paste from Word and retain formating

My co-worker and I are both running Dreamweaver. However for
some reason I can copy and paste from Word into Dreamweaver and
retain the formatting (bold/italic etc) but she can not. I've done
searches on this board and online in general but haven't found
anything about this issue. Keep in mind that we are not importing
HTML from word, just basic cutting and pasting. The paragraph
returns are retained but the bold/italic formatting is lost. We
don't need the styles to come through (and would rather they not
-they tend to corrupt the html-it get's all wonky) just the
formatting.
I'm sure it's something silly like a preference in Word or
Dreamweaver but we can't seem to find it, or any one else who is
having the same issue.
Our next step is to reinstall Dreamweaver to see if that may
clear the issue...
Any thoughts?

In DW 8 try PASTE SPECIAL. It gives you options for how much
or how little
formatting you want to retain when you paste.

Dreamweaver CS3- can not paste from Word into Design mode window

Have been away from DW for a while, and upon return having a
bit of difficulty with paste function for text. I can select text
in design mode/window; I can type in design mode, but I can not
paste into design mode. I can only paste in code view or the code
half of split view. Is there a setting/preference I have set wrong?
Thx

Cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail

I cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail. Neither from using the keyboard shortcuts, or using the Menu function. I can copy and paste from other applications into Mail- but for some reason, text copied from a Word document (both in .txt and .doc formats) will not paste into an open email. Anyone else have this issue? It's a new issue. I used to be able to do this easily.

I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

When I copy and paste from Word to my e-mail using Firefox it changes the font and spacing to single and 10pt. It just started doing this a month ago. It does not do it when I am on my laptop or using Explorer. Help, I hate explorer.

If this were a project that I was involved in, I would recapture the media at the correct frame rate and rebuild the sequences correctly.
Moving from production, to post production, to delivery is a series of steps, and the success of any particular step is based on having all the preceding steps done correctly.
Shortcuts and workarounds tend to create awkward and difficult problems, that often only surface late in the process.

Why Position:Relative from CSS doesn't work at Safari 5.03?

If you watch my web page: http://clubdeleonesst.tk
I designed a ComboBox and have some problems with position relative. I used jQuery to create it, you could watch the original example here:
http://www.marghoobsuleman.com/jquery-image-dropdown
And I have been watching that the transparency from Flash doesn't work too. I hope you can solve these bugs.

The "disappearing" affect you describe is not normal. You may need to reinstall Safari.
First, try removing the Apple cookies from your Safari Preferences>Security>Cookies panel. Also, go to your Safari Menu and Empty cache. Then try to log-on to Apple Discussions.
Also, regarding the "disappearing" effect, try Safari from another User Account.
Here is guidance from Apple on how to set up the account. You can ignore step 7 in the article.
Also, on the system preference>Accounts panel, click on "log-in" options. There, select "fast user switching". This allows you to go back and forth between user accounts via an icon in your Menu Bar at the top of the computer screen.
Log-on to the new account and start Safari. If Safari is stable in the new account, then your problem is specific to your regular user account. Otherwise, similar response means a system-wide problem.
Post back with results.

Pasting from Word into PDF changes graphic size?

I send PDF newsletters to customers who like to be able to add their own logo or a sentence at the bottom.
In the past (Acrobat 8 and earlier), I would save the PDF as User Enabled. The customer could then copy a graphic or text from a Word document and paste it into the PDF.
Now, in Acrobat 9, with Enable for Commenting or Extend Features, the customer can still paste graphics or text, but it makes the pasted item enormous! For example, the word "Hello" is typed in MS Word at 12 pt Times Roman, and copied. When it is pasted in the PDF it becomes about 48 pt and distorted in proportion. Likewise a 7-inch banner graphic in Word becomes huge and overflows the page when pasted into a PDF.
This didn't used to happen. Any suggestions for a fix? Is there a Preference I need to set? A different way I should Enable for Commenting?
Thanks!
Elise

There does not seems to be any preference that can be set. Clipboard text or images are placed as stamps.
One option for people who just need to paste text would be for them to insert a text comment field and paste their formatted text from Word there. (The reason to paste from Word is because the formatting will be maintained.)
Your customers may want to consider making their own custom stamp for their logo and/or any standard text that they want to appear on your newsletter. If they had their logo and text set up in Word, they could create a pdf using Acrobat.com or another free service. In Reader, they could use that pdf to define a custom stamp. A custom stamp would eliminate cutting and pasting and could be resized easily. The stamps could only be used in pdf documents that have commenting enabled, but they would not have to create a custom stamp for each newsletter – previously made stamps would be available to use in future newsletters.

Pasting from Word ridiculously slow

Hi I wonder if anyone has had this problem:
When I paste from Word (Word 2004 for Mac) to ID 5 it takes a ridiculously long time--maybe a full mintue for 10 lines or so.
I am a book designer and going back and forth from Word to ID all day long--this is driving me crazy (it only started in the past month or so).
I often PLACE (which is also very slow, but it makes more sense since it brings in the formatting) but sometimes I need to PASTE short bits of text and it is excruciating!
Anyone else have this trouble? Know how to fix it?
Any suggestions, much appreciated.

Thanks for responding, Gail. Yes, I am copying and pasting properly. I had no problem whatsoever pasting Word into Mail until I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion.
As far as the other question goes, I will put off taking a lot of time trying to get through to Microsoft Word for as a long as I can!
Leslie
Just tested. No problem with cut & paste here from Word to Mail. Using Office 2011 (14.3.2) which opens all my old word files. You could try Pager or OpenOffice to try to open your old .docs if you wish, but I would try uninstalling and reinstalling MS Office first. Should not be acting like this, and have never had a copatability problem.

Humm?
Just tested both your process and again by going to Plan View > rt-click on page > Menu Options and both instantly remove the page.
Have you tried just making simple/quick test site with 2-3 pages and trying?
Maybe somthing in your site and not in Muse that's causing the issue.
