Why can't i paste into meeting notes? it seems insane that the basic copy/paste function doesn't work for meeting notes.
I tried pasting basic text into the meeting notes function. not possible. how is it possible in 2019 that microsoft doesn't support copy/paste in an application? i can paste the same message into the CHAT but i can't paste into NOTES? are you kidding?

Thanks John. The paste to Notepad, then copy and paste to Team Meeting Notes does work. BIG shortcoming for this tool, but it gets you there.

This really is laughable. If Teams is to maintain credibility, Microsoft need to rapidly work on turning it into a credible productivity tool. Not just a clumsy wrapper for SharePoint and Lync.

old faithful: paste into notepad which clears all formatting, then copy paste into Teams

I urgently need to find a way to consistently be able to copy and paste the whole transcription from the captions into a word document so I can develop them into a format to be the notes of the meeting (like the other commenter below). All it does it picks up about five (even when everything is highlighted). So frustrating and an absolute time waster. Please get this sorted urgently.

Seems a bit weird that it's not a/v.

It seems that I can paste text from Outlook/ emails into Meeting Notes in Teams, but not from OneNote. The workaround I've found is to copy from OneNote, paste in an email draft in Outlook, copy from the email draft, paste into Meeting Notes in Teams.
Someone else mentioned CTRL+SHIFT+V as a workaround, which works, but it loses formatting. Ridiculous.

I cannot imagine what would be the business reason for neglecting basic functionality here. We are forced to use this unruly mess of an application after coming off of Slack. I really miss Slack. However, I was able to finally do it by pasting into the chat for the meeting, right-clicking and selecting Copy Image, going back to the meeting notes, right-clicking and selecting Paste. So easy!

Ctr+C content in OneNote to Ctr+V in Word, Ctr+C whole content in Word, got to Teams Meeting Note and add random character, then ctrl+V

I need to be able to cut and paste the entire discussion available under MS Streams captions so I can then convert them into minutes of meetings. It will only allow me to copy parts of the meeting. Very frustrating. Captions should be cut and pastable without exception!

Annoying Microsoft. Even CMD+Shift+V does not work. This isn't another eco-system battle with Apple where you make your customers lives miserable and force them to buy a windows laptop just to get OneNote and Teams in general to work properly.
Can you fix it ?

Seriously Microsoft...come on!!! You need to fix this ASAP. I was even attempting to paste From OneNote into Teams Notes, both Microsoft products and this did not work without using the Shift button. Tried it on both Mac and PC, and neither worked.

Tables will not paste when using Ctrl + Shift + V.

The workaround is, type a letter and then right click, you will see the paste option. If you are copying from One Note to Teams Meeting Notes use Ctrl + Shift + V to paste in Teams.

Not friendly to use when setting up a meeting I could not copy from Notebook to Meeting minutes

I had a similar issue using a Mac and found that formatting was causing some sort of problem. I use a utility called Get Plain Text to clear formatting and magically command+v works.

Microsoft. please fix this issue asap. i want to be able to craft my notes privately before sharing wit the group and then when it is correct and pretty, paste in the meeting notes for record-keeping and the rest of the group. If I have to re-format everything after pasting, the point and lots of time is lost

Ctrl+Shift+V pastes without formatting (which it mostly does into Teams but not always)
Ctrl+V pastes with formatting (sometimes works, sometimes doesn't)
Workaround to paste into MS Word then copy/paste into Meeting Notes (Teams) works.
