I cannot paste any pictures/ images copied from any websites into word, powerpoint and onenote.
Now, i am so stressful because this strange problem occurs with both versions of Microsoft Office (2010 and 2013). I had updated the Microsoft Office from 2010 to 2013 with the hope that this problem will be solved in 2013 version but I was so disappointed. I was so addicted to onenote and cannot live without onenote. In the past, I always used onenote to store countless handmade-creating articles and so many other information found on websites and other resources by simply copying (Ctrl + C) and pasting (Ctrl + V) them into onenote without any problems.
This strange problem has occurred and resisted approximate 2 months. Now I am almost going insane. I am longing for help, any help from the online community. Please!
I will describe the problem in more details.
-My laptop was Asus N550JV, and it was installed only one operating system: Window 8 single language by manufacturer. Nothing such as virtual machine or multiple operating systems in this laptop.
-This problem occurred with all websites, not only with a certain website or a specific website.
-It occurred with all of my latest-updated web-browsers, including firefox, internet explorer (which was pre-installed by factory in my window 8), opera, safari, chrome.
-Despite of using whatever web-browsers listed above, although the whole articles (text and pictures) on these websites were copied, however there was only text pasted successfully, excluding pictures.
-Pictures/ images were not pasted together with text. The onenote/word/powerpoint only shows a blank space where the picture should be in. If I click on this blank space, a frame will appear covering this blank space inside, and the url address of this picture was shown. The“drawing tools” tab appeared instead of “picture tools” tab. I guessed the pasted pictures were considered as drawing objects, not as pictures.
-After many unsuccessful attempts to solve this problem in Microsoft Office, some days ago I decided to install Open Office of Apache in the same laptop in order to make a control test between the two programs. I was successfully in copying and pasting text and pictures on many websites (using whatever web-browsers I am having) into text document of Open Office without any problems. Pasting pictures and text from websites into Open Office was successful, so that what the hell was happened with my Microsoft Office?
-If I download or save the pictures found on websites to my laptop then using the“insert picture” function to insert these pictures into word/ppt/onenote, these pictures were inserted successfully without any problems.
-Copying and pasting text and pictures from old articles stored in onenote to a newly created word document were successful without any problems. Copying and pasting text and pictures between word and word, onenote and onenote were successful without any problems.
-It was concluded that this problem only occurred with online pictures pasted from websites, while inserting or pasting the downloaded pictures were successful without any problems.
-My internet connection was not disrupted during copying and pasting processes.
-My Canon laser printer only recognized and printed the text lines, there were only blank spaces in the places where the pictures should be in.
During two months since having this problem, I have searched so many times in order to find a solution. All of solutions listed behind I already found on internet and tried them all but nothing worked! This problem still resisted in Microsoft Office 2013 and now I am so sad and tired because of it.
List of solutions I found and tried but nothing worked:
-Right-clicking then choose "paste option: keep source formatting” and choose “set as default paste option"
-On theView tab of the Ribbon or on the status bar, choosePrint Layout view, not Draft view.
-Go toOffice Button | Word Options | Advanced: Show document content and make sure that“Show drawings and text boxes on screen” is checked and that “Show picture placeholders” is not checked.
-Go toOffice Button | Word Options | Display: Printing options and make sure that“Print drawings created in Word”is checked.
-On theHome tab of the Ribbon, locate theParagraph group and click the dialog launcher arrow in the bottom right corner to open theParagraph dialog; in that dialog, make sure that line spacing of the paragraph the picture is in is not set to anExact value.
-Paste the picture and immediately pressCtrl+Shift+F9 to unlink it. The picture will then be embedded in your document.
-If you find that Word hangs when you try to paste, you can instead selectEdit | Paste Special and choose “Device-independent Bitmap” instead of the default of “HTML format.”-> I could not try this solution because my paste special options only had three choices: unformatted text, html format, unformatted unicode text.
-Select File, Options, Advanced, then underCut, Copy, Paste section set "insert/paste picture as”: tight/ inline with text/ through/ square/ top and bottom/ in front of text/ behind text… -> I have tried all choices but nothing worked.
-Rename the Normal.dot or Normal.dotm global template file: run cmd.exe and typeren %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Normal.dotm OldNormal.dotm. Then typeexit, and then press Enter. Or go to C:\Users\Home\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates to rename the Normal.dot/ Normal.dotm file manually.
-Turn off the "Use draft quality" option:ClickFile, and then click Options. Click Advanced, Under Print, click to clear the Use draft quality check box. Click OK.
-Change the view to:Print Layout/ Full Screen Reading/ Web Layout/ Print PreviewFor Word 2010-2013: Click File, and then click Print.
-Check the box for“Print background colors and images” at File | Options | Display: Printing options.
-Check the box for“Show background colors and images in Print Layout view” at File | Options | Advanced: Show document content.
-Using repairing function to repair the Microsoft office 2013.
Nothing worked! I have no clue of what have been happened with my Microsoft Office! Please help!
