Notes, copy paste doesn't work

Copy & paste does not work within Notes. Using copy & paste, different text from elsewhere in the note will be pasted and not the one I marked.


  • This issue starts after some time once I started the app, anywhere from 2 min. to 2 hrs; I couldn't pinpoint the cause.
  • I couldn't link the issue to a specific other app that might interfere, either.
  • Once I restart the app, copy & paste works fine - until it doesn't as mentioned before.
  • This problem exists for some time now (probably two or three years) across different OSs, currently running Ventura 13.0 on MacBook Air 2018.

FWIW, the current version of Ventura is 13.1. See if updating fixes it.
