Question

Hey Hi, to apple Family.
Few days back, when i was doing some normal work on MS word, i found that i my paste option is not working.
Then i tried to use it for normal work like Moving Pics from here and there, but still found the same result.
When i try to select anything and then copy/cut anything, it got the intial action, but when i got to paste it anywhere, it won't do the action, and after checking in status bar, (above), It shows Paste option Faded, like i can't use it.
If some one from Users or any one From Apple Support can help me please do the need full done.
I have lotss of data in my Macbook, and i need to move it to somewhere else.
Please Help me.
Regards

Hello, Deepanshu,
Besides the good advice so far, might try this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
