PS CC 14 OSX 10.9.4 "Could not export the clipboard.." issue

I have dreaded "Could not export the clipboard because it is too big to export" issue.
Trying to past from Photoshop to InDesign with the latest CC versions.
I've done this a million times in previous versions and now find myself cursing for upgrading to CC 14.
I literally can't work without the ability to copy and paste between adobe applications.
Anyone have any ideas? (all I could find on here was a windows registry fix for an older version of the software -- not helpful)

I don't know what the differences are between CS6 and CC in copying and pasting. What I do know is that if you are trying to images that are large enough to generate that error, you are on your way to creating a bloated InDesign document that will be slower to process, and more prone to corruption.
Copy and paste embeds the image into InDesign; placing it creates a link to the image file. When you place a file, it is easier to go back and edit it, too.
The easy fix to your problem is to save and place, but you don't want to hear that.

  • CS6 PSD Could not export the clipboard because it is too big to export

    I have been getting the error "Could not export the clipboard because it is too big to export" since upgrading to CS6. The same files at the same bit depth on the same computer  do not cause this error in CS5.
    In fact, I can open a file in CS5, copy it, and paste it into CS6 with no trouble. If I then copy again within CS6 and leave the program, I am given the error. (As a note, I have not run these programs simultaneously, except to run this test.)
    This error appears regardless of whether Photoshop CS6 is running alone, or with several apps.
    The Raw files are from a Canon 5D mark ii and tend to be 20-25MB in size,
    I am running a Mac Pro 2.8GHz Quad Core Intel with 24GB of RAM. I have set the preferences to allocate 70% of this RAM, which should be sufficient. Changing the allocation to 90% or 100% has no effect, nor does adjusting the tiles configuration. My scratch disks have 130GB and 500GB free.
    How do I correct this problem?

    Hi, FYI, To duplicate a layer on top of itself, use Command+A, Command+J (jump the layer) if you need part of it, make a selection instead of a Command+A, this will also avoid the clipboard, and use Photoshop's scratch disk instead.
    (I don't know why you run into that issue in CS6 and not in CS5, so I try to give you useful workarounds)
    I'm not talking about bigger tiles, but of unlimited clipboard size that you find here for CS5: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4965
    But are not listed here for CS6: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/plug-ins-photoshop-cs61.html#id_68969?PID=3350462
    Maybe did you install it in CS5, but forgot all about it?

  • Getting "could not export the clipboard because of a program error"

    The above error just started recently when I do cntl A to select all  the cntrl C to copy.
    I am trying to add photos to the background photo as additional layers.

    I don't know why there is an error but you may be able to prevent it by disabling clipboard export in preferences.

  • Could not complete the camera raw command because of disk error

    Hi,
    First off, I am using a Mac (OS X ver. 10.9.2) and Adobe Creative Cloud Photoshop (2014). I just downloaded the preset pack off VSCO for Adobe Camera RAW and I am having trouble getting it to work.
    When I try to launch the "Camera Raw Filter", I get the message 'Could not complete the Camera Raw Filter command because of a disk error.' (this also happens sometimes when i try to import the RAW files into photoshop...I don't know if it's the way i'm importing them or what...?)
    I've tried uninstalling and re-installing photoshop cc several times and restarting my computer and have searched online but cannot find anything at all to help me (or i just don't understand, urgh).
    Please help!

    I'm getting same error and I think it's related to Adobe Camera Raw.  I see several manifestations of this problem:
    1) Open a RAW file (.NEF) directly using Photoshop CC 2014 - I get an error "Could not complete your request because of a disk error."
    2) In Photoshop CC 2014.  I go to Filter > Camera Raw Filter - I get an error "Could not complete the Camera Raw Filter command because of a disk error."
    I can do the following successfully:
    1) Open and edit a RAW file successfully in Lightroom 5.7
    2) Open a RAW file successfully in Photoshop from Lightroom 5.7 (when I do an "Edit in Photoshop CC 2014" from Lightroom 5.7)
    I was previously on LR3 and Photoshop CS5 on Mac OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and bought an upgraded MacBook Pro last week.
    My upgraded system is now:
    Mac OSX 10.10.1 (Yosemite)
    Photoshop CC 2014
    Lightroom 5.7
    I've uninstalled / reinstalled Photoshop and Lightroom numerous times and the problem still occurs.
    Anyone else having the same problem?

  • "Could not complete the Video Frames to Layers command because the movie file could not be opened."

    I'm using Photoshop CS5 extended.
    I've been using that to make gifs. It was fine when I import video frams into layers with the video formats of .mov or .avi. But After I installed OSX 10.6.8, this message comes up everytime I want to import videos: "Could not complete the Video Frames to Layers command because the movie file could not be opened."
    So I installed my old OS back which is 10.6.3 but the problem is still there.
    May I know what to do to solve this problem because all along I've been fine with making gifs and importing videos until now.
    Please help, thank you.

    The computer deities may be trying to say something to you.  GIF is not a video format.
    Are you opening video with the same codec that was successfully opened before?

  • Disk Repair notified me it could not repair the HD.  Iam to reformat the disk and restore backed up files.  OS Utilities give me a "Restore From Time Machine Backup" option.  I have not reformatted the disk;  does this restore option do both?

    Disk Repair reported that it could not repair the HD Disk.  I am to reformat the disk and restore backed up files. OSX Utilities give me a choice of restoring from time machine backup (which I have on MyPassport) but no information on reformatting the disk, which I assume I have to do first.  How do I reformat the HD ...or does the restore from Time Machine do both things?

    Boot OS X Recovery and use Disk Utility.
    If Disk Utility reported the disk cannot be repaired though, you should replace it with a new one.

  • AI error: Can't finish previewing. Could not complete the requested operation.

    I have a user who is trying to open up .ai files but recieves a few errors when he tries opening it.
    Can't finish previewing. Could not complete the requested operation.
    Can't open the illustration.
    An unknown error has occurred.
    His MAC has the latest 10.6.8 OSX and updates. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling CS5 but still didn't work.
    When he logs onto another employees MAC, he's able to open it up fine. But when he logs onto the MAC that he uses, the error shows up. He has admin privileges to the computer as well. When logging into the local accounts, its able to open any AI files fine. Seems like this is only happening when he logs into his domain account on that computer.
    I've looked and already tried removing/disabling fonts that he didn't need. Also when opening up AI (no other programs opened), he still has 1.75 GB RAM available.

    the question is what has changed in terms of PDF standard, in just the latest patch, to cause this problem for some of our generated PDFs?
    Again, I'm guessing: it is possible that newer versions of Adobe products are more strict to adhere to PDF standards.
    I have also tried to open your file using Adobe internal beta versions, and I've received the same errors.  Meaning that this behavior is here to stay.

  • Could not synchronize the color settings because of a program error.

    Hello,
    I am using PS CS 5 on a brand new MAC OSX 10.9.4.
    Upon startup of PS, I get this message:
    "Could not synchronize the color settings because of a program error."
    If I click "Okay", the message goes away and I can use PS. What does this message mean and how do I fix it?
    Thanks in advance.
    Patrick

    Just ignore it.
    The message refers to color settings not being identical in all installed applications. And they don't have to be - mine are deliberately unsynchronized and I have no desire whatsoever to synchronize them.
    Note that color settings are stored under your user account and are not removed with an uninstall. So the message could well refer to uninstalled apps, trial versions, anything you once had on your system.
    Personally I think this is a useless and misleading warning and they should just remove it, considering the amount of confusion it causes.
    Spinipes, the printing crash is unrelated to this. Start a new thread for that.

    Hi All!
    I’ve just finished an application but I’m having problems generating the .BAR file that I want to submit to the AppWorld. These are the commands I’m executing
    First - "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\blackberry-tablet-sdk-0.9.3\bin\blackberry-keytool" -genkeypair -keystore bbDevCertificate.p12  -storepass myPass -dname "cn=Company" -alias " Company "

    The problem comes at the first step. I'm using Flash Professional CS5. When I generate the p12 certificate and I try to export my app using that certificate and the password that I've set, it gaves me the next error:

  • Ipad, Error message "Safari could not open the page"

    Hi... I am getting the error message "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding" 
    I have read the previous replies to this error message and have made sure the Ipad is connected to internet (skype works fine.)
    I have also done a hard reset on my Cisco router.
    I have Reset Ipad to factory settings twice.
    I have Reset network settings five times
    I have Powered off and on five times,
    turned wifi off and on countless times.
    Any idea other ideas? Ipad was bought in US 3 weeks ago.  Worked fine at hotel in mexico.  I am now in Bolivia.  Different countries screwing it up? Could my router be too old? My Mac and iphone work fine on it though, although they are also old and since my macbook refuses to update it runs on OSX 10.5.8
    Thanks, your help is immensely appreciated.

    Can you connect to the internet using other WiFi networks? Have you even tried outside of your own home WiFi network? Have you tried anything I here yet?

    Occasionally I get this message in Safari but I also can't get online with any browser when I get the message. What I always do - and it always works for me - is to close all apps on my iPad and reset the device. I don't know if closing apps has any real effect or not. Most likely is it the system reset that brings it back to normal behavior.
    Due to the fact that you have restored to factory settings twice already, I can't believe that resetting the iPad would do any good at all. But you are getting nowhere anyway, so try it if you like.
    In order to close all of your apps, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
