Word 2008 Crashing (copy and paste)

Absolutely sick of this crap. I need, 100% need Word because everything is done in this program for my University classes. Anyway, consistent crashing when copy & pasting. Read a bit on the net, it appears to be a common problem.
WHAT THE BLOODY **** IS WRONG WITH THIS PROGRAM???
I have SP1 installed, gonna uninstall Office 2008 and reinstall without updating to SP1. I read it can cause issues? Makes no sense, but ok..
Why can't we just have a flawless program, I mean I bought this thing for school and I'm losing all my data after a crash.. no autorecovery after crash or battery-dead shutdown???

I never use the hyperlinks panel. Instead I find that creating no fill/no stroke buttons gives me a better (more stable) results.

  • Crashing - copy and paste iTunes URL into hyperlink panel

    Is anyone else having InDesign crash when they copy and paste an iTunes URL into their hyperlink panel? I am!
    Very annoying since I'm making an app that has over 50 of them!
    Thanks.

  • Can no longer copy and paste from MS apps

    Could be a nightmare a-brewin'.
    As webmaster for a transit company, I'm responsible for
    updating the schedules for our 50+ bus routes three times a year on
    piercetransit.org. So I opened one up today in Dreamweaver 8 and
    launched our brand new version of Excel Mac 2008 to copy and paste
    schedule times into a web page. And it didn't work!
    Up til now, Excel has been an irreplaceable tool for
    converting data from our weird, 70's-era bus scheduling software
    [Hastus] into something Dreamweaver can understand. But no matter
    how much I fiddle with options under Copy and Paste preferences,
    today I got nothing -- literally. It's as if there's nothing
    whatsoever on the clipboard. Earlier, I'd noticed the same problem
    with our new version of Word, but since I rarely paste anything
    into Dreamweaver from Word, I was only mildly irked by it. Given
    the thousands of bus arrival and departure times on our site,
    however, the inability to insert data from Excel into DMW would be
    a disaster!
    Am I just missing something, or is this some kind of "How
    dare you use anything other than one of OUR products?"
    gotcha from Evilco?

    This has been an issue with Office 2008 for Mac even with the
    CS3 version of Dreamweaver. I believe the only workaround is to do
    a paste special as text only but you will lose formatting this way.
    You can do a search on this forum also for other suggestions
    because I didn't follow the old topics before because I didn't
    upgrade till recently, but there might be some other tricks around
    here.

  • I want to copy and paste within an online forum - firefox wont allow it

    i often use an online forum for work with the OU and am unable to copy and paste within the forum - if i wish to copy from one thread to another, i have to copy to word then re copy and paste to another thread - annoying

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Clipboard_not_working

  • Copy and Paste from Word to ID – as text please?

    Recently upgraded to CS4 and Office 2008. Now when I copy and paste text from Word to ID it only comes in as an image. If I'm copying a single paragraph from a lengthy Word doc, I really don't want to have to paste it into a new Word doc, save that, and then Place... into ID.
    Is there really no way to simply copy and paste some TEXT from Word to ID?? Who asked for text to be pasted as images?

    Sorry, I know this is an old post, but I'm not really finding many newer posts about this (although I did also find this article online via built-in InDesign Help, which contains a couple more recent responses: http://indesignsecrets.com/when-pasting-text-from-word-turns-it-into-an-image-in-indesign. php).
    Anyway, as a long-time Mac user, I can confirm the OP's dilemma.
    I just upgraded from a pre-Intel Power Mac G5, OS X 10.5.8, CS2 Premium, Word 2004 for Mac to a late-2011 MacBook Pro, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3, CS5.5, Word 2011.
    This definitely is working as the OP is describing. Select text in .docx file, Cmd-Tab to InDesign, paste (with nothing selected)... pastes as an image.
    Drawing a text frame in InDesign *first* and *then* pasting the text does work, though (unlike the OP, it's not pasting as an inline graphic for me, so something may have been addressed since his posts), as does pasting the text from Word into TextEdit, then copying the text from TextEdit and pasting into InDesign (it is not necessary to first draw a text frame if pasting from TextEdit).
    I can also paste the text from Word into Dreamweaver and then into InDesign, and it'll be actual text in both locations, without having to first draw a text frame in InDesign.
    For some reason, though, it's not liking the Word-to-InDesign transition.
    I even tried saving the file as a text-only file (.txt), opened that in Word, copied some text, pasted into InDesign with nothing selected... still being pasted as an image.
    So, anyway, workaround method it is, for now.
    (Yes, placing the Word doc -- as opposed to copying/pasting -- does still work, but if you're only trying to grab a few lines of text from the file, placing becomes more of a hassle.)

  • I have a document that in Word required a password to open. I copied and pasted it to Pages. Put the password protection on. Now if I click on that filename in Finder it automatically opens.Why. Anyone can read it. How do I protect it again?

    You saved it after setting the Password? :
    Inspector > Document > Document > Require Password to Open
    I just tested it and it shows up ijn The Finder with a padlock on the file icon and does require a password to open.

    I believe that insufficient RAM may be the source of some of your problems. If you have a RAM of somewhere 4 to 8GB, you will experience smoother computing. 3GB doesn't seem right, so you might want to learn more by going to this site:

    I don't know what know what's happening with your optical drive, but it seems you use your drive quite a bit. In that case, look into a lens cleaner for your machine. It's inexpensive, works quite well.
    I hope you'll post here with your results!

  • I cannot copy and paste details from my bank statement into a word document, without the formatting changing.I have a message in my Error console which reads: server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555

    Since transferring data from my desktop to my laptop, i am now having problems copying and pasting details from my bank website in to a word document, the formatting is all over the place. This didnt happen before, when i pasted the details in to the word document the formatting was exactly the same as on the webpage. If I use internet explorer, I dont have this problem, so, I can only assume it has something to do with Firefox. I have checked the "Error console" and I am receiving this message: server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555.

  • I cannot copy and paste from email to word processor in microsoft 7, not Office

    why can I not copy and paste from Yahoo email into Microsoft 7 word processor. I don't have Office. I used to do this all the time using Control C to copy and Control V to paste but recently AT&T installed Firefox and I think that's when the trouble started

    There are a range of different kinds of forms. For example, this site uses very simple controls that don't automatically convert Word's formatting to an online format. The site where you are trying to paste your resume probably works differently.
    What methods have you tried using to paste? Typically one of these will work:
    * Ctrl+v
    * right-click > Paste
    * Edit > Paste (from the menu)
    Some sites offer their own buttons to paste, but for security/privacy reasons, Firefox usually disables those.

  • 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?
