I searched all over but can't find a solution - maybe I'm just not grasping the concept of an artboard quite yet. Here's the issue: I can't paste into a specific artboard that is not on top (not the first in the list of artboards). I have tried selecting the artboard in the Artboards panel, Paste in Place, Paste in Front, Paste in Back. Even Paste on All Artboards puts two copies of the object on the same artboard.

This is getting a bit frustrating which is why I'm taking to StackExchange. Any help/suggestions/corrections/tips would be appreciated.

Note: I'm still relatively new to Illustrator.

Your artboards are like a canvas , whatever you paste in the bounds of it will show up on it (works just like slices). If artboards overlap then your work will be on both arboards. You can, on the other hand, paste something into a specific layer by selecting the layer first.
