Microsoft excel cannot copy and paste from one excel doc to another one

I have a user that is on a Windows 7 64-bit machine and he has to different instances of excel open and coping information from one excel file to the other one. He can do it once and then when he tries to do it again excel says, "Microsoft cannot Copy and
Paste."
I have tried to repair the install, that worked for a few days.
Tried uninstalling Office suite and then re-installing Office suite.
I reformatted the computer and did a fresh install of windows 7 and Office suite and today it started again.
I need to get a fix for this as soon as possible.

Hi,
As far as I know, if you have Skype installed in your computer, the clipboard will be influenced.
Refer to the link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2697462
And this issue has been resolved in an update version.

Cannot copy and paste in an Excel 2010 file

Cannot copy and paste in an Excel 2010 file
The user has modify rights, and on other files it works fine. She can save and do everything with the file except copy and then past to another tab in the same file or a new one. Or anywhere.
We tried the file with a different user from the same department and there it does work.
I tried to disable the X-com plugins and disable OVF for performance also. Nothing works...anybody knows maybe what the issue might be ?
The file is on a network drive on a domain and does work on another user to copy and paste. I have not let her log in with the same user account n test it on a different system so I asked and will get a update soon. There are no error messages the
paste option is greyed out.

Hi,
How about the issue now, is it solved?
This issue might be caused by her user profile. What the result would be if using another user account to log on her computer to test this issue.
Also do you have the same problem when you open excel in Safe Mode?
Try opening Excel without any Add-ins or hidden workbooks:
Press and hold the CTRL key, and then click the excel program.

Cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail

I cannot copy and paste from Word into Mail. Neither from using the keyboard shortcuts, or using the Menu function. I can copy and paste from other applications into Mail- but for some reason, text copied from a Word document (both in .txt and .doc formats) will not paste into an open email. Anyone else have this issue? It's a new issue. I used to be able to do this easily.

I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

I cannot copy and paste from email to word processor in microsoft 7, not Office

why can I not copy and paste from Yahoo email into Microsoft 7 word processor. I don't have Office. I used to do this all the time using Control C to copy and Control V to paste but recently AT&T installed Firefox and I think that's when the trouble started

There are a range of different kinds of forms. For example, this site uses very simple controls that don't automatically convert Word's formatting to an online format. The site where you are trying to paste your resume probably works differently.
What methods have you tried using to paste? Typically one of these will work:
* Ctrl+v
* right-click > Paste
* Edit > Paste (from the menu)
Some sites offer their own buttons to paste, but for security/privacy reasons, Firefox usually disables those.

Cannot copy and paste from an external document into InDesign cs6

I am unable to copy and paste from "anywhere" into my InDesign cs6? Not from emails, word, or any other programs? HELP. thanks.

You might find more accurate help here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign (InDesign Forum)
Copying and pasting is not usually a good idea. Try using the "place" command to place your external files or documents into InDesign. Nevertheless, you should be able to copy text from Word or other programs with no problem. How are you doing it exactly? Try to do it not only with keyboard shortcuts, but using the actual "copy" and "paste" menus on both programs.

I cannot copy and paste from Word 2007 into Firefox (gmail), and I cannot copy and paste from Firefox (URLs) into a word document.

Starting two days ago, I can no longer copy and paste between Firefox and Word 2007. I can copy within each program.

I had similar issues starting about the same time or within the past week. However, I can copy and paste, it just takes considerably longer than it used to before. Copying something from a web page into Word could take up to 30 seconds now on my computer but it shows a busy mouse pointer while it is loading, then clicks/pops when it loads into the Word document, but then actually takes about another 5 to 10 seconds to appear in the Word document. I have no idea why it is delaying now when it did not do it before, but since it is still going into the document I am living with it for now. Are you waiting long enough to see if it appears?

Upgraded to Mavericks not my excel clipboard cannot be emptied and I cannot copy and paste from safari either.

I upgraded to Mavericks. Now when working in excel I cannot copy a cell to paste. When I try to copy an alert pops up saying 'Cannot empty clipboard'. I hit "OK' then I go to another screen, such as Safari, then excel on dock will bump then I have to keep going back to it to select "OK" again.
Also, I cannot copy on Safari, to paste an address on google earth, or paste anywhere else for that matter.
Anyone experiencing same issues?
I already checked my clipboard in finder and it is empty. Also, I tried right clicking to copy and still did not work that way.
Thanks. This is very frustrating because I need to use shortcuts and I work fast. I have business to tend to and need everything working. Excel keeps shutting down and restrting as well, very frustrating because I have to constantly save work and hope that it reopens with last edit.
ANY HELP is GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or if it's your User's folder that contains the problem.
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Accounts. Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching.
Do you still see the issue?
If yes, then the problem is with your base files.
If no, then the problem is in your User's folder.

Cannot copy and paste from a webpage, clipboard, etc. Ver. 7.0

This started in Version 6.0 and continues with 7.0 . I am running Mac OS 10.7 on a MacBook.
I often have to copy from a webpage and paste to email (Gmail, Sparrow, etc..) or a Word document. This function has become unreliable. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. I have tried shutting down both Firefox only and then the whole computer and restarting and sometimes that works and sometimes not. I am able to copy from some webpages and others not at all. Sometimes I can copy some of a page but not all of it. Here is an example of a page I can copy only part of an article from: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2011/08/18/businessinsider-guyhaus-2011-8.DTL
(I can copy url's no problem btw.) On that page I can copy the headline and byeline, I can copy the article, but I cannot copt them together at once. Some pages not at all.

Cannot copy and paste from PDF Created with Distiller 9.0

Hi,
Can anyone tell me why I would be havingissues with copying/pasting from a PDF created w/ Distiller 9, as opposed to Distiller 8.x? I don't use Distiller myself, it just looks like this was what the creator of the document used. Is this a possible copyright protection that's been built in?

I can select text, but oddly enough it seems to automaitcally select random text - I can't select line to line. It randomly selects parts of all paragraphs at once. I'm very certain it's not an image.
I also checked to see if there were any security features that might be preventing copy/paste, and found none. I even compared it to an older edition of the document (which we can select text from perfectly), and none of the security features were any different. I would send this PDF to you, but I am in a heavily regulated work environment that doesn't allow for outgoing attachments or uploading.
If you have any other ideas, please let me know. If not, I really do appreciate your help.
Thanks.

When I copy and paste from a word doc to InDesign it shows up in ALL CAPS, when it shouldn't be. HELP

Help Please.

Some web mail software doesn't automatically create a hyperlink for a URL for any browser except for Internet Explorer.
When you are viewing the Reply box in this forum, there is a "toolbar" with icons at the top with B, I, a "chain" image, numbered list, and bullleted list. Look for a similar "toolbar" in your web mail software and use the "chain" or '''links''' button to create a hyperlink for those URL's.
For that zipped attachment at once problem, see [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]]
