Copy link to clipboard
Copied
Hi all,
This is a very frustrating bug - around 50% of the times copy & paste won't work. I select an object, press ctrl+C, and then pressing ctrl+V produces nothing as if the clipboard is empty.
I cannot reproduce it as it seems random, sometimes it will copy & paste, sometimes it won't.
This makes working with Illustrator extremely hard.
Might be worth mentioning that copy-pasting from Illustrator into Photoshop resembles the same buggy behavior - it will randomly work or not.
Please advise on how to resolve this.
Cheers
Have you tried deleting Preference?
Is any clipboard enhancing app installed?
Can you try if turning off the SVG option in Preferences > File Handling and Clipboard helps?
wah... thank you sooo much!!! after all the methods I've tried, finally this "turning off the SVG option in Preferences" method can solve my "copy-paste Lag/Bug" problem in my Adobe Illustrator.

- mouse pointer highlighter
- anyViewer
*I installed those program to setup my tablet as secondary monitor, but it doesnt feel good anyway.
Once I uninstalled all of them and restart my Illustrator all working fine. I still don't know what the culprit is, but for my case it must be in one of
Here is an update of my issue of copy and paste in Illustrator.
Have switched keyboard, Now using Logitech keyboard and mouse on the same wireless usb dongle.
I must say, problem is gone.
So maybe this issue also can be caused by keyboard set up..
Hi @ivobachkov,
We are sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind updating the app to v27.2, released recently, and see if that helps?
This generally happens due to third-party application interfering with keyboard shortcuts when working on Illustrator.
Would you mind booting into safe mode (Mac/ Windows) and launching Illustrator to check whether the same behavior is happening?
Also, would you mind confirming the exact version of your Illustrator & OS installed on your machine?

I don't know if it is wise to let Adobe "login to your system". The last time I had them to that I had to reinstal my whole system. True story. No joke.

Then you have to figure it out yourself.
Or hand your computer to an outside expert to figure it out.
But most probably it is just some other app interfering.

Why is it so hard for you to believe it is an Adobe problem? A problem they do not fix?

Because it's just not a general issue.
Many people experience problems with it, but many more don't. Otherwise these forums would be a different place.
