stroke size issues, copying and pasting and printing

[Kerry5CD0]

Hi. I am having several issues. When I copy and paste something the object will paste to the bottom of the page? Also I have created patterns and when I move it onto a new document the pattern will distort which it has never done. Also my stroke size use to give me the option of .025 / 0.5 / 0.75 and then 1pt now i have to physically type it in? and lastly I noticed my clipping masks also have moved and they are filled in with a stroke, so if I filled in for example a collar on a t-shirt with a brush stroke and made it into a clipping mask, when I logged back onto my computer only half the collar would have it, and the actual line is above the mask not in the middle of the mask. also when I print some pages now come out blank.

Please help!

Clipping Mask... I got you....

I just did a two hour plus live stream using tons of clipping masks.  Here is the link.  If you watch 30 minutes your dreams will be all about clipping masks.
