WHY CANT I POST TABLES INTO PAGES?

I keep trying to post a table from the internet application "Statcrunch 5.0" into pages, but every time it only pastes the values and removes the borders of the table, making the data ridiculously confusing.

Just a footnote to this thread.
I hand-created a pure HTML, 4x6 table without any div containers, or CSS. Looks like this, unadorned in Safari.
From the Pages v5.2.2 document toolbar, I added a table, and adjusted it down to a 1x2 example. I used a number automatic data format for the first cell. In the second cell, I created a custom, comma-delimited, number data format.
I then used paste and match style into the first cell (A1) of the table, which then automatically expanded to 5x6 table, that applied the formatting that I assigned to the original Pages table cells. As cleanup, I selected the header row, chose to center align, and bold the column labels. Done. Looks like this.
The above technique did not work well for a different HTML table with div containers, and heavy CSS styling.

  • Insert Numbers Table Into Pages

    Is there an equivalent to the "Past-Special" command found in MS Word/Excel? I want to link a Numbers table into a Pages document and have the Pages document automatically change when the Numbers table is changed.

    Hi, I think there might be some misleading information about this.
    You can highlight a table in Numbers, copy, then paste it into your Pages document. It moves and resizes like an image, and you can directly edit any cell in the table. You can add rows, columns, etc the way you can if you create a table through Pages. The functions all remain the same and change automatically as you change the information.
    While you may not be able to link so that changes in one program affect the other, I find I don't need it to change in both very often. If it ever does become an issue, I just copy/paste whichever is "complete" into the other and continue.
    Hope it helps!
    (Incidentally, you can do the same thing to take tables created in Pages and put them into Numbers)

  • Importing word 2004 docs with tables into Pages

    I work in video production, and my clients send me shooting scrips as word documents formatted with tables. Needless to say, I was quick to discover that Pages doesn't really 'like' these documents. I can't keep asking my clients to reformat their docs as txt files for me - it's very unprofessional.
    What I've found is that all the text is there, but the tables don't 'translate' (one cell tries to fit on a whole page and the text gets 'lost' at the bottom). Is there a quick and easy way to remove the tables in Pages but keep the text?
    In Word, it's Alt+A, V, B, 0 (I've been formatting and reformatting scripts for 8 years!).
    Thanks for your help. I REALLY don't want to have to get Office - I've read so many horror stories about 2008 (especially the excel part).

    Hello,
    Have you tried: Select table, then from the Pages Menu; Format > Table > Convert Table to Text?
    It might be of some value in this situation.

  • IWeb and galleries - Why cant I make a gallery-page??

    Hello! I'm new to Mac (Just bought an MacBook) as well as iWeb. I have pictures from 6 different holidays which I would like to post on the iWeb-site I'm creating at the moment. Is the only solution to make 6 gallery pages right along side the main pages, such as "Welcome", "CV", "blog" and so on? I'm looking for something like a "Gallery page" where you click on a holiday (Icon or picture), which takes you to a page where you can check the photos or watch a slideshow. I've tried a bunch of times, but it won't work, which is why I'm asking out here!
    I hope somebody can help me
    Thanks either way

    Please note, you must have your photos organized into your desired albums in iPhoto. Otherwise, this will create everthing for you! And it won't clutter up your navigation menu!

  • Trouble pasting table into Pages.

    I have been unable to copy a table from Numbers and paste it into a Pages document.  The data gets pasted, but not the formatting and it is also not placed in a table.  I am using Pages '09  and Numbers '08. 
    What appears to happen is teh text or cell data from teh table is pasted in teh Pages document, and seperated by a series of tabs rthare than being placed in a table.

    Numbers '08 was designed to be used with Pages '08, not with Pages '09 which was created 18 months later.
    As Fruhulda wrote, pasting a table from Numbers '08 in Pages '08 or pasting a table from Numbers '09 in Pages '09 behave well (as long as the size limits are respected).
    Pages '09 was not designed as a single app but as a component of a package including Numbers '09 and Keynote '09. Compatibility with the '08 versions wasn’t an item in the design workflow. They were distributed as separate apps only at least 18 months later.

  • Why cant I post anything or search in facebook when using Firefox but I can with internet explorer?

    When I am using firefox I can not post on anyone's wall or search for friends. When I switch to internet explorer I can. This has been happening for over a week now. I cant even access the facebook help center because it wont let me click on anything. Also it does not let me like anyones comments or pages. Please help me I hate internet explorer I like Firefox.

    There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Usually this manifests itself in problems with video, but games might also be affected. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

  • Importing Numbers table into pages

    Hi,
    If anyone can help me out really quickly with this I'd really appreciate it, deadline coming up!
    I want to get a table I've done in numbers into my assignment on Pages. The table is in landscape form and Pages in portrait. I basically just want to get the page turn it 90 degrees and slot it into my assignment.
    I've tried just copying it over but all the table just comes out in a mess.
    Thanks

    Hello
    Maybe I missed something but I don't understand your message.

    Copying a table from Numbers to Pages works flawlessly as you may see on this screenshot:
    Given that, it's true that there is no tool available to rotate a table but this has nothing related with your last sentence.

  • Insert numbers table into pages v5.2.2

    I seem to remember being able to copy and paste tables from numbers to pages.
    Now I have a new computer and cannot do this.
    Any hints?

    Hard to put a finger on this, maybe just maybe, a real stab in the dark, just guessing, you never know, could be a wild hunch, I might be wrong, chances are it has something to do with you "upgrading" to Numbers 4 and Pages 5.
    Use Pages '09 and Numbers '09 instead. They should be in your Applications/iWork folder.

  • Why cant i post a question in apple support

    So i want to ask about my ipad trouble and post it in he but then this message appears :
    You are not allowed to create or update this content
    can somebody help? thank you

    Since you were able to post your question here try posting again in the iPad Forum. Oftentimes the "you can't post here message" means you timed out. Whenever you get a message copy your work, refresh the page, make sure you're signed in, paste your question in and try again.  The Forumis haunted with glitches if the first solution I already mentioned doesn't work try another browser or just wait a little while, you'll get in.

  • Break a (very) large table into pages interactively

    Here's the problem: I have a number of reports which, depending on parameters and the nature of the underlying data, may produce a table (tablix) with 10's of 1000's of rows.
    The non-interactive renderers deal with this kind of table reasonably - Word & PDF, for example, simply start a new page when the current page is full.
    Sadly, interactive use of the report uses the RPL renderer which, for some strange and incomprehensible reason, ignores the page size and always tries to render a single table without intervening page breaks.
    Unfortunately, when you ask the Web or WinForms ReportViewer clients to render a 250,000 row table on a single page, they fail badly - the Web viewer just gives up after a few minutes, while the WinForms viewer tries like a champ, but even after 90 minutes
    of execution and consumption of 10+Gb of RAM is still stuck compute-bound trying to lay out that giant table.
    Looking for ideas - I've been looking for a solution for 10 years now, but SSRS has progressed so little since 2005, the time lapsed doesn't really mean much.
    In case it matters - the underlying query is MDX.  SSRS 2012 (or 2008 R2 or 2014 - they all behave the same).
    -cd Mark the best replies as answers!

    Setting the InteractiveSize property should resolve this issue.
    Since you say you are getting no page breaks at all I am guessing you have the interactive height set to zero. 
    Not that you can't see this property if you right click the report background and go to report properties - you need to use the properties pane instead.

  • Why cant we have a link/page for jobs on SAP ???

    There are so many professional networks and sites for the jobs.......... But how about having the jobs page here itself?
    so recruiters come here for picking profiles and SDN may earn a littile amount from recruiters fee... (As I prefer every little helps caption,I am suggesting this to Our network)
    it might be helpful to people who is looking for new job (just people like me :-P   )
    Sorry..if this doesnt sound really gud...

    No! I'm absolutely against recruiters on here!
    Forum rules are against multiple punctuation marks but I feel strongly about this so here are a few more: !!!!!!!!!
    As you so rightly point out, there are a great deal of job sites out there, we don't need recruiters spamming these forums.
    However - as Julius has graciously provided the link - I am all for a dedicated job forum (even willing to moderate it!) for the community. Recruiters and job boards only pick up a certain type of jobs, and there is a lot to be gained from a direct contact platform, so I am all for a dedicated non-agency forum.
    Cheers,

  • Why cant I save as in pages any more

    The "save as" function has dissapeared from the File menu in pages...
    It was there yesterday, but not there today
    I did on OS update a couple of days ago, but the "save as" function has worked since then, just not today.
    any ideas?
    I am running OS X 10.8.5 (not sure what animal that is..)

    You're welcome. Apple seems to have removed Save As because it doesn't align well with their new file management scheme. But so many users complained, they brought it back. I never use it myself, because I find that the new commands work fine for me.

    I am attempting to log in and check my bill and not getting any joy yesterday or today.Input my mobile number and then all i get is the dotted circles going round. Anybody else having any issues?

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?
