Clipboard Manager & Office 2007 - Rhywun1 - 12-16-2008
I don't know if this is a bug in CM 2.0 or Office, but since I started using Office 2007 I have had all manner of problems using copy & paste in Office. For example in Excel I randomly get an error "Cannot empty clipboard" and in Access copy & paste simply doesn't work at all. I tried many different fixes and finally removing CM results in copy & paste working in Office again. Just wanted to pass that along in case anyone else finds it useful.

For me, it's drag-and-drop related - Daniel Beardsmore - 07-31-2009

I get this continually in Excel 2003 (XP SP3) when dragging cells within a spreadsheet, which could really start to become a nuisance. I'm using ClipBoard Manager mainly to catch mistakes where I've copied over something else I held in the clipboard. The pattern seems to be that every other drag displays the error, but does otherwise proceed correctly.
Might be something to do with the way Excel abuses the clipboard [Edit: hm it's occurring with copy sometimes as well! grr] I don't have a problem with anything else, just Excel.
Wonder if there's any way of excluding Excel from being monitored, as a workaround. I've set to see how it copes with Photoshop!

I can confirm that if I pause the clipboard manager, the problem goes away...
I also can't copy anything out of snag-it without pausing the clipboard manager either.

Yes, I know abut this problem. I'm trying to fix it but without success yet. I hope I'll find the solution soon.
Seems to fail silently a lot with Firefox - Daniel Beardsmore - 08-25-2009
I notice that text copied in Firefox 3 rarely ever shows up in ClipBoard Manager -- seems that, unlike Excel, it just fails silently?

Any news on this issue?
