Clipboard Help+Spell / Re: Am I missing something obvious? How do you paste???

« on: July 09, 2009, 11:31 PM »

I got the paste to work exactly twice in Chrome while it was still loading a page.  I have mostly had the box you mentioned checked, and the two times it workes were with it checked.  Without it checked, it never worked.  After those two times, I couldn't get it to work in Chrome.  I tried Chrome, IE, Firefox, Evernote, Notepad, Windows Explorer.  A couple other programs.

It does seem to overwrite the active clip though, so I can ctl V, but I am looking for paste to active window.  I have been using Launchy for years and I love it except that a) the find absolutely sucks, b) the groups don't work right, c) it just started munching my memory and I can't get it to stop.

Mouser,

First, thank you for FARR- it is so wonderful I can't believe its utility and that I have never heard of anyone using it.  That will change at least in my circle.

Sorry to be thick, but I have the same problem as the original poster of this message.  I have tried on two machines through reboots to select a number from the quick paste menu or to click the clip that I want, but neither of these methods will paste the clip into notepad (or any other program).  I have changed all of the options I can think would apply.  I see the clip in the list, and I can, from the press of the number, then ctl-v the clip into the program, but I thought that this program simply pasted for you once you selected the clip.

What might I be doing wrong?  I am using WinXP SP3 on both machines.
