Can't copy and paste text from Illustrator to After Effects

[Neha06]

I can't copy and paste text from Illustrator to After Effects. I have tried one of the most used methods to solve the issue, opening the project from the After Effects panel rather than directly opening the project. It works till I copy 1 text, when I proceed to copy & paste other texts, it doesn't work again. I can't keep opening the project again & again to copy each text. Any NEW METHOD/SOLUTION would be appreciated. It's been a while since I have had this problem.

Which system is it?

Does it work when you boot into Safe Mode?

I am using iMac 2020.
Updated to macOS Sonoma Version 14.5
I am using Illustrator & After Effects, updated to the latest version per Adobe Suites.

No, I haven't tried to boot Mac in safe mode ever. Does it help with the stated issue?

It will boot your Mac into a state that only has the operating system and no interfering third party apps or system extensions. It's these things that can badly interfere with Illustrator's handling of the clipboard

Okay, let me try to boot the system in safe mode and then work on the problem. I will let you know.  Thank you so much.
