Upgrading to 10.7.5 broke copy/paste system wide

I upgraded to 10.7.5 though software update and it appears doing so has broken the paste command, system wide.
I can cut (and perhaps copy) text of out fields. When I try to paste, the Edit menu lights up but nothing happens. This occurs when I hit command + V or when choosing Edit from the paste menu.
Have tried restarting the finder, and rebooting. Thoughts?

Step one is to log into a newly created admin user account and see if the problem persists.

  • Copy/Paste does not work - iTunes Upgrade 10.5.1.42

    Hello,
    A new problem with copy/paste album artwork started with latest iTunes upgrade from:
    10.5.x
    to
    10.5.1.42
    Before you could copy (rght-clk or Ctrl-C) an album artwork within iTunes library or iPod and then
    paste (rght-clk or Ctrl-V).
    This copy/paste feature no longer works. from researching this issue, it seems to be an iTunes issue -
    either by Apple design or a bug ?
    Any comments ?
    Is there an elegant way of reverting back to iTunes 10.5 when the copy/paste feature worked ?
    Peace,
    GR

    999 times out of 1000 this isn't a Reader problem but a case of bad OCR when the document was put together. More often than not it happens with scanned documents and not those created from text docs.

  • Copy paste problems with iphone 4s 8.1 upgrade

    I want to copy a few words or lines from Safari (a webpage) to a text message or email, but ever since I upgraded to 8.1 on Monday (three days ago), only an old copy (a url I copied on Sunday) will paste.

    Hi Diane ..
    Tap Settings > Safari then tap to Clear History and Website Data
    Then reset the device.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then open Safari and try to copy / paste.

  • InDesign CS6 + Yosemite + Copy/Paste = Missing font

    We use ITC Franklin Gothic throughout all of our pieces; it's installed and it's the default font setup. New and existing files have opened without issue until now. I opened an advertisement that needed to be resized, from our shared server and copied the contents. In a new document, I pasted the contents suddenly the font says it's missing. The images retained their links to the packaged folder on the server, the fonts just stopped working. I closed InDesign, then disconnected from the server in case there was some kind of conflict between the local font and the server font override from the packaged fonts folder (packaged from the local font installed, I made the source ad this same way). Loaded the new file, and got the expected missing links dialogue, but unexpectedly the fonts were still missing. I reviewed the missing fonts, and it was the entire family. I opened Suitcase, verified the fonts are active. Still no fonts in InDesign. Okay, disactivated font in Suitcase (maybe it needs an update), installed the font in Fontbook, need to get the ad done and I don't have time for this. Verified font works by opening a different file, making a new document, but as soon as I opened the ad with the missing the fonts, fonts go missing. I then changed the fonts to a different family, and tried changing them back, but the font doesn't even show in the list of fonts. I can't figure out why this particular method of copy and paste breaks the font. I've opened and created other files with this font family active, while this copy/paste file is open at the same time in another tab while it still says "no". The only work around I could use was to copy the entire packaged folder from the server to my desktop and just change the document properties to the size I need, then adjust the artwork to fit.
    I'd like to find a resolution as to why copying and pasting broke this font even though the same missing font works fine simultaneously in a different document. Any suggestions/questions/thoughts/solutions would be very welcome.
    System specs:
    27" iMac (Mid-2011) 3.1 GHz i5
    32 GB RAM
    1 GB Video
    10.10.2
    Adobe InDesign CS6 8.1
    Update: Looking through the font list, Franklin is being listed as a different font. Though the character palette, the font selected is ITC Franklin Gothic Std Book; the font listed in the Type drop-down menu is Myriad Pro, and once that was deactivated, Helvetica.

    i don't see how that could be the case because I originally installed the font, created and packaged the ad, and the font is available for typesetting in a new document while this problematic document is open without being connected to the server.
    I upgraded to creative cloud 2014 and this particular document is still a problem. This font issue is limited to this sole document. I'm guessing it has something to do with the copy and pasting. Tomorrow, I'll try replacing the font to something else and then copy/pasting it in the same way if it recreates the same problem with a different font.

  • Copy&paste file names when bouncing

    too bad, after upgrading to 7.1.0 it is still impossible to copy&paste file names when bouncing, as was no problem in LP6! That´s very time consuming for me, because for film music I usually have long file names that contain smpte codes. Does anybody have a shortcut?

    Hi Orbanl, I was going to post this myself and then found your post so will add to it.
    'It used to be in Logic Pro 6 that normal copy/paste worked in the 'name' field of the save and bounce windows (even kept them seperate as far as clipboards went). Now, in Logic 7.1 the only way I can initiate a copy or paste when saving the song or naming the bounce is a right mouse click (cntrl-click)? to bring up these options. Are there no key commands for the navigation services anymore? This is a huge time killer for me as I often save 60~100 files with the same root name and was able to quickly initiate and save/bounce without stopping to pick up the mouse (now I have to switch back and forth between the keyboard and mouse to initiate, name copy+paste and modify name). Thanks in advance.'
    Over at the Logic Pro Forum, Peter suggested in response to this post that the Pro App Support update v3 might have something to do with it as his Logic 10.3.9 DOES support normal copy/paste commands! Unfortunately I am running 10.3.8 and the Pro App update v3 specically notes 10.3.9 as its requirement. The only reason I have not upgraded to 10.3.9 is I use a lot of esoteric shareware music software and I understand 10.3.9 had some 'sprinkling' of Tiger in it that at least for several friends of mine broke older app's that were running fine in 10.3.8.
    Here is the link if you are running 10.3.9.

  • Copy/Paste difference between CS4 and CS5

    Please help... I am losing my mind...
    I just upgraded from CS4 to CS5 the other day and am at my wits end.
    I use Adobe Illustrator for live trace and paste the paths into an embroidery software for digitizing.
    In Adobe Illustrator CS4, I could copy (ctrl+c) paths in illustrator and then open the embroidery software and paste (ctrl+v) the paths.
    Now that I've upgraded to Illustrator CS5, I can no longer copy/paste paths... why?  The paths simply wont paste into the embroidery software any longer.
    I feel like there is something very fundamental that I am missing.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Larry,
      Thank you for your suggestion.  If you can't tell already, I am far from an Illustrator power user...
    I verified my clipboard settings looked as the attached image and it still did not seem to work.  I also tried every combination of options and none of them worked either.
    Work Flow: I will highlight the paths and copy them, then in the embroidery software when I hit paste, the mouse cursor turns into the processing icon for a split second like it's trying to paste, but nothing ever shows up in the embroidery software.
    I reinstalled Illustrator CS4 alongside CS5 this morning, and tried the same copy/paste process with CS4 (from an illustrator file created in CS5)... works like a charm.  I realize that downgrading to CS4 is not the solution.  However, not being able to correctly operate the copy/paste commands is toying with my ego...

  • I installed Windows 7 in my Macbook pro, I can access Windows data in Mac, but I can't copy and delete it. and the same case while i am working in Windows. Could you please guide me if there is any solution, where I could copy/paste/delete my data.

    I installed Windows 7 in my Macbook pro, I can access Windows data in Mac, but I can't copy and delete it. and the same case while i am working in Windows. Could you please guide me if there is any solution, where I could copy/paste/delete my data.

    OS X can natively read NTFS of Windows, but not write to it.
    Windows can't read or write to HFS+ of OSX, and that's a good thing from a security standpoint.
    Ideally if you share files between operating systems you should have a FAT/MSDOS formated USB key or hard drive. (exFAT external drive if any of your files are over 4GB in size) both these formats are universal for OS X or Windows.
    If you install software into Windows and OS X to read each others formats, then you have to pay to update/upgrade it deal with headaches.
    If you swtich between Windows and OS X a lot, don't need full hardware performance for Windows, you may consider installing virtual machine software like VMFusion or Parallels which can take a copy of your Windows in Bootcamp and place it into OS X as a file then run that copy of Windows in a window in OS X like so.
    Advantage here is you run most of your light weight Windows programs like this at the same time as OS X.
    Benefit is you can run just about any Windows or Linux version and OSX server editions (not client versions)
    Bootcamp only allows Windows 7, that's it now.
    You'll also be interested in two fre pieces of software, Carbon Copy Cloner and Winclone on macupdate.com.
    CCC clones OS X partition and Winclone clones the Bootcamp partition. Valuable for you.
    Good Luck

  • Copy & Paste from PS CS3 to DW CS3?

    Hi Everyone,
    I have my nice shiny new copy of Creative Suite 3 (Design
    Premium) and have tried an eagerly anticipated feature with
    absolutely no luck! I've been trying to copy an image ( small
    photo) from PS into DW. Sometimes DW grays out the paste menu item
    like it doesn't think there's anything on the clipboard (Win Vista
    Business) and other times it allows the paste, but all I get in DW
    is an alphanumeric string like "WCD07". Has anyone else had this
    issue? Any ideas for a fix/work-around?
    Thanks!
    Bill

    Yes.

  • IOS 5 Copy/Paste Bug

    Since updating to IOS 5 (both on iPhone 4 and iPad 2), I can no longer copy content from some web pages. This almost always happens when displaying .htm pages. IOS will allow ou to select the content and will go through the motions of copying it, but when you go to paste the information anywhere none of the data copied is pasted.

    Somewhat similar issue with my ipad2 after upgrade to ios5.I cannot copy/paste the URL address in landscape position with home button on the right. If I rotate the ipad to portrait positions (either side) and landscape with home buttion on the left, it works fine. And when it is working, like I can copy, then after awhile the safari browser website will crashed. The keyboard will comes up and down, up and down..... the search engine will slide in and out, in and out........... the bookmark wll slide in and out.... and immpossible to control the page ..... it will not response when i tap on any part and just have to switch off to stop. Anybody knows what is happening? got a bug? Any fix? Please help...........

  • Cannot copy/paste in Firefox 22

    Colleagues,
    copy/paste functions don't work after update.
    It's stupid, unprofessional error.
    Looked through entire forum - no solution. I don't have ZoneAlarm. I just got Firefox updated to v.22 and - surpise! - it works incorrectly. I didn't change anything. Just installed new update. With v.21 it worked. With v.22 it doesn't work.
    WTF?!
    Please urgently fix it.

    Yes, I am having the same problem... mine works most of the time, but fails about every 1 out of 5 attempts, sometimes multiple times in a row. Extremely annoying. There is a bug report for this:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=883554
    It started happening to me as soon as I upgraded to FF 22, even on local HTML files where there are no clipboard events.
    Glad I did a search before gutting my profile.

  • Can't copy-paste images from Noteshelf in iOS6

    Hi,
    I use an app called Noteshelf (v7.0). In iOS5, I was able to copy-paste pictures from Noteshelf into other apps, such as Keynote (v1.7.1) or in an email. However, since I upgraded to iOS6, this doesn't work anymore. As the versions of Noteshelf and Keynote are the same, the logical conclusion is that something has changed in the copy-paste functionality of iOS6. Can somebody tell me about this and, better still, give me a fix for it?
    Thanks!
    Maarten

  • Copy/Paste Frames in New Layer Un-Synching from Guide

    I recently upgraded to CS4 from Flash MX 2004, and I'm experiencing a problem with something I've literally been doing for years in Flash. What I do is copy/paste keyframed animation from one layer into a new empty layer. I then trim the animation as necessary, insert a new key frame, and repeat this action over many layers. In all my previous Flash version experience (think back to Flash 4 I've been doing this), the animation pastes perfectly into the new empty layer. This allows me to fill a street map of roads with arrows down a stretch of road that repeat perfectly over a 8 frame animation.
    What's different is in CS4, once I paste in the animation into the new layer, it un-synchs from the motion guide. I then have to manually re-synch, or attach, it to the guide.
    I need for this NOT to happen. Is there a setting or preference some where I am not seeing that prevents the un-synching from happening? I don't understand why CS4 would be different in this regard to the previous versions of Flash I've had experience with.
    Thanks for your time.

    A friend who has worked for me in Flash doing what I do and is now in school has informed me that guides in CS4 are no longer used, that they want you to use motion tweens instead, so the guides are difficult to use now, and as she put it "They found a better way to do motion so they want you to use the new way". She also informed me that this not the case in CS3, and that you can save your CS4 file as a CS3 file and use the guides normally without buggy behavior.
    She also confirmed that what I do in Flash can't be done, or rather is just grossly ineffective and time consuming, with motion tweens.
    If Adobe is reading this, I for one would sincerely appreciate it if you un-did the buggy behavior of guides, and reinstate the code in CS4 to allow us to continue using guides normally.
    Thank you.

  • Copy/Paste images into Contribute CS3

    We have been copying and pasting images from Word Documents
    in Office 2003 into Contribute CS3 at my organization when
    developing content. We have been able to copy/paste images from
    Office 2003 and other programs like Paintshop Pro and SnagIt.
    Since upgrade to Microsoft Office 2007 all image copying and
    pasting has stopped working.
    Is there a known issue with this?
    Does anyone else have Office 2007 installed and is able to
    copy/paste images from a Word Document into a page in Contribute
    CS3?

    It appears that the problem only occurs if you are copy and
    pasting from something that hasn't been saved yet.
    In Word I inserted an image from my hard drive and tried to
    copy/paste it into Contribute and that failed. I then saved the
    Word Document to my hard drive, re-opened it and was able to
    copy/paste fine.
    Power Point, Snagit and Pain Shop Pro appear to have the
    problem even if it's been saved first.
    I was able to copy/paste an image from a Word Doc and
    PowerPoint into MSPaint just fine. I was also able to copy/paste
    between Office applications with out any problem. Snagit could
    copy/paste into Office just fine and MSPaint.
    This problem appears to be specific to Contribute CS3 but
    only from certain sources.

  • HT202998 copy paste in windows browsers numbers beta not working?

    Hi,
    Whenever I try to copy/paste an XLS file in numbers icloud, the file gets really messy. Data gets allocated to different cells compared to the original file. I have been using both Google Chrome and Firefox for windows, but have had no luck. Any advice on how to deal with this problem?
    Cheers,
    Paul

    I have the same problem.  It looks like it only pastes every other row and skips a row in between.
    This used to work fine, as I would use it all the time, broke sometime in the last two months.
    I've yet to find a good work around.  (Pasting single rows works, but that just isn't efficient, I'll switch to Office web apps before I do that).

  • Copy/Paste function no longer works in iOS5?

    Just upgraded to iOS5 last night, and I just noticed I can no longer copy/paste from Safari to Office HD. It goes through all the motions, but there is no text pasted. I tried rebooting, same deal. I can paste the text in notes, but it doesn't work in Office. Fix anyone?

    I too am having the same problem copying and pasting from safari after upgrading to ios5.  I am able to copy and paste from normal web pages, it is when I attempt to copy and paste from a website that is using java script.
    When I go to any other program and paste it does not paste the information from the java script page but continues to paste the information from a regular web page.
    I had no problem copying and pasting from JavaScript pages before the upgrade to ios5.  I have tried to turn off JavaScript in the settings with no avail.
