This is a reported bug, but does not affect every user. I was just
happily copy/pasting in 2.0 with no issue at all.

Have you tried opening in Safe Mode, and see if it works there? If
not, have you tried creating a test profile to see if it works there?

Lee





Well, you misunderstand me. Safe Mode does not always reproduce the
effect of a clean profile. I am not suggesting that you set up a new
profile for permanent use at this point. I am only suggesting that you
set up a new profile as a test. You don't need to set up mail/news at
all. Just a new profile and do a quick copy paste in the browser to
see if that works. That will tell us whether or not the problem is
profile related or if it is the program on your system. Since it is
working fine for me on both Mac OS X and Win XP, I don't know where to
begin looking for the problem on your setup.

If you choose not to do the troubleshooting step, well I guess I can't
help you, much though I would like to. Good luck with it anyhow.

Ok I guess I did misunderstand you and will try the new profile test
shortly but thought I would ask this first. I went to about :config and
did a search for "copy" I find that a setting for it reads like this
"clipboard.autocopy default boolean false" is this correct for this
setting? I haven't changed anything yet but thought I'd ask about it to
see if this could be my problem.




Good thought, but mine is set to false as well, and copy/paste works as 
it always has for me.  That's probably not the culprit.


Try the test profile and see. If it does work, we can troubleshoot 
through your existing profile.  If not, I'm not sure where we go, but 
there are a lot of hands here.

just tried something else, I just did a copy of the SeaMonkey 2.0
homepage address as well as some text from that page and tried pasting
it into MS Wordpad and no luck, it still pastes what I copied from
System Info over an hour ago in place of the fresh copy so the bug must
be on the copy side of the programing.

For me the following are unavailable: Command-C, Command-V, Command-X
(PC I believe is equiv to Alt-C, Alt-V, Alt-X). However; I can if I work
fast enough is select item; hold down option Key and Drag and Drop. Or
Drag select and hit delete.



Darn, its working with no issue here.  By the way, the Windows/Linux 
equivalent is CTRL instead of Command.


By the way, have you tried Safe Mode or a new profile? ONe of the nice 
new things is that you can open SM 2.0 in Safe Mode by holding down the 
Option key while clicking the Dock icon.  No need for Terminal anymore.
