Can't copy and paste files using RDP session in server 2012

I'm running windows 8, but I have also verified on a windows 7 machine as well. We have server 2012 installed on a machine
I use remote desktop to get into. I cannot copy files from my local pc and use paste to get them to the server. I could do this with server 2008. Is there some setting I have to change or does this not work with server 2012?
FYI, clipboard is checked when I open my remote desktop connection window. If I connect into a win server 2008 r2 machine from the same local machine, I can copy and paste files
just fine.

Hi,
I believe RDS clipboard redirection should be enabled by default also on Windows Server 2012. Is there perhaps is a Group Policy Object active that is configured to disable Clip Board Redirection? Either on the computer or the user OU. If not:
You did not explicitly state this, but I'm assuming that you are running in Application Mode (meaning you did not install the RD Session Host role) ? If so please check the registry on the Windows Server 2012 destination server and look for:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Winstations\RDP-Tcp\fDisableClip
this should be set to
0, to make allow Clipboard Redirection
Also check the key below:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Addins\Clip Redirector
This should have: 
Name
REG_SZRDPClip
Type
REG_DWORD0x00000003
If you did run the RD Session Host role, and you have done so using a Scenario Based Deployment (Scenario
Based Deployment of RDS in Windows Server 2012 ) you will have a Remote Desktop Management Service GUI available as pat of the Server Manager with which you can enable or disable ClipBoard Redirection from within a GUI on a Session Collection level
or you can use PowerShell
Using Powershell to install, configure and maintain RDS in Windows Server 2012

    Hi Sara.  Tanks for responding.  If I cannot figure this out (I  was up
    until 2am last night), I want to cancel my subscription.
    Here are two files you can check on/help me with.  When I try again,  it
    comes up 'an error has occurred when trying to access the service.'
    Please advise.

  • I can't copy and paste files in finder arrrgghh

    Ok im not the most tech savvy person around and this is my first imac, I dont operate windows on it and am stumped. I am trying to transfer my movies onto a media player and external hard drive but it just wont do it. when I just had my previous pc all I had to do was copy and paste and am ready to scream. Does anyone have any answers????

    I don't think this is necessarily a disk format problem.  I've been noticing the same thing the past few weeks.  I used to copy and paste files frequently using the Finder but it no longer works.  I have the Copy option in the contextual menu when a file is selected but I no longer have a Paste option after doing the copy.
    All mounted drives on my system are formatted Mac OS Extended and the operation fails even when attempting to copy files residing on the boot drive to another folder on the same boot drive.  Digging around for a cause/solution now.
    UPDATE:
    The problem in my case was an application called Clipboard Cleaner that strips all formatting from text you copy to the clipboard so you can copy from something like a Word doc and paste into an email without all the Word formatting coming along as well.  It runs in the background and apparently disables the ability to copy/paste files.

  • Can't copy and paste files

    Why won't my MacBook Pro let me copy and paste files, particularly from my external hard drives (to each other) and (to my computer). They are both new and it shouldn't be a problem.
    Please help!

    Is it possible that the hard drives, which you said are new, have not been formatted for the mac?  If they are formatted NTFS (which is the standard format for new drives) you will only be able to read from the drives, not write...therefore you will not be able to cut and paste. 
    To check the format of the drive, from the Utilities folder, open the application "Disk Utility".  Select the Hard drive from the left side of that app, and then click on the "Partition" tab.  Then click on the big Partition block found under "Volume Scheme" and see what it says beside "Format".  If it is NTFS, this is your problem.
    The best solution if the drives will only be used on the mac is to use the Disk Utility Application and reformat the hard drives by selecting the drive you want to format on the left side of the app, and select the "Partition" tab.  Under Volume Scheme select "1 partition" and then for format, select "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".  Then Click Apply.  PLEASE NOTE THAT DOING THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING ON THAT HARD DRIVE!!!!
    If the drives need to be used on a windows machine as well, you can download and install this plugin for your mac that will make it read and write to NTFS although it will do so slower than a disk formatted for the mac.  Here is a link: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g    Using this option will NOT require you to loose any data that might already be on the disks.
    Hope this helps!

  • I can't copy and paste anymore after installing 64bit software on 32bit system

    I've installed an trial version of Adobe Indesign on my MacBook pro (Max OS X 10.5.8). I noticed that the programm could not be installed because it is an 64 bit version. Sadly I allready installed it and now I have a lot of problems. I can't copy and past files anymore. Also moving files from a folder to another folder is over. When I start applications most of them crash (Avid Media Composer, After Effects ect). When I open photoshop CS4.0 I get the following error: 'Could not import the clipboard because of a program error'.
    Allso copy and past in Safary doesn't work anymore. I've tried to remove the com.apple.finder.plist file but dat doesn't work. When I reboot my mac and start up in safe mode the problems are still there.
    Anybody an idea what to do?

    Uninstall the incorrect version.  It should have come with an uninstaller.  Repair permissions, restart your computer, install the correct version, repair permissions and restart your computer again.

  • Can't copy and paste or drag files and folders

    In the last few days I can no longer drag files or folders on my desktop, in my mail program (Entourage) and I can't copy and paste anymore. I also can't get iDisk to come up. It keeps givng me error messeges. (error code -50). Anyone had similar problems and know of a solution?

    When did you last run a bit of basic maintenance?
    Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    and here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
    By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US
    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

  • Bridge CS6 Mac XMP File Info Panel Bug: can't copy and paste metadata

    The cmd-keys / shortcuts doesn't work in the xmp file info panel btw. in the xmp / iptc fields (e.g. cmd+c, cmd+v, ...) of Adobe Bridge CS6 (Mac OS 10.6.8 and 10.7.3). You are not able to cut and paste info from one box to another like previous versions.
    This bug only appears in the xmp file info window (opened via alt+i) in Bridge CS6 - if you edit information or metadata in the file info panel in Photoshop CS6 copy and paste from one field to another works.
    The shortcuts also work under Windows (tested under Vista).
    I noticed this minor bug already one in the Photoshop CS6 Beta more than one months ago. I hoped that this was corrected in the official test version, but unfortunately it is not. Although it is a minor bug, it is IMHO a basic function and would be very helpful in my daily work - it is too bad, that such a small thing is making working with the application a little bit annoying.

    Thanks! If there is a workaround or simple solution, I would be very glad if you could inform me.

  • How can I copy and paste a long page here without using email?

    How can I copy and paste a long page without using email?

    Thanks for replying. Actually I want to copy/paste a recipe from a website so I can keep the recipe. On p 39 it tells how to copy/paste, which I do a lot already, but it doesn't tell where to paste it so I can access or print it whenever I want. It's kind of a long recipe. Too long to type out. Any ideas for that?

  • Using the calendar can I copy and paste phone numbers.

    Using my iPad mini can I copy and paste phone numbers on the calendar from different weekdays?

    I"m not sure exactly what you mean, but if I go into an appointment and open that appointment. I'll then see an 'edit' button. I tap on that to bring up a pop up with the details of the appointment. In there I can select and copy text, then I can make a new appointment and paste that text into a new appointment on a different day.
