Sorry but YOU are incorrect. It does work for us. I use it VERY frequently. The text below was copied directly from your post, for example.

Sorry all but Jodie is correct. I have the same problem. Copy and paste doesn't work correctly . It used to but now just pastes the same old thing I copied weeks ago. Cant clear it . Tried everything. Internet suggested reboot. Doesn't work. It's a real issue as I use it all the time.

But there are some limitations - depending on the context - and it is possible there is an issue with your iPad. If you you describe the context, what apps you are using Nd how you are going about it, someone may be able to help you.

I have the same problem often however it's on the latest Safari on a computer. My solution is to turn Safari off for several seconds. If I don't do it long enough I still can't hilight/copy/paste/. It's like Safari gets constipated and I have to give it an enema. And it hasn't been that long since I turned off the whole computer.

I agree -- Apple has gone down hill this last year since trying to make their products work both on a computer and ipad, etc.

There is this not very known app called iClear my Clipboard. I think it works.

Let's break this down a bit:

What and how have you tried to copy and paste?

We want to help, that's why we log in and offer our time. But, we can't help without some information from you.

I think that I covered both of these in my posts and got no cooperation.

Valiant effort. However, this person doesn't actually seem to want help. Or. possibly, they have a serious reading comprehension problem as they still seem to think they are adressing Apple. I'm going to go help nicer people now.

Best of luck.

Clearly you do care otherwise you wouldn't be here having a childish temper tantrum and refusing to answer other users questions so that they can offer you help.

Sounds like you need to go on an anger management course, or just to simply grow up.

And as you've already been told numerous times - APPLE ARE NOT HERE.

Please immediately head to your nearest computer/electronics store and purchase an HP computer running Windows 7. You will be eligible for the Windows 8 upgrade when it comes out. Then, later this year, but the Windows Surface with Windows 8.

After you get both of these use the browser on it and look up "Professional Counselor" and "Anger Management". Copy the directions, paste them into Word and then drive to your appointment.

When your Mercedes fails to do something you want are you going to drive it off a bridge?

BTW, my iPad charges just fine and I have no problems with copy and paste unless a particular website had blocked the ability to do so.

Works fine for me as well. Never had any issue regarding the buffer not clearing it's previous contents. It's a bit tricky when first learning how it works but after that, it's a great implementation that serves it's purpose.

" I was two breathes from smashing it into bits on the hood of my beautiful Mercedes. That's what I'd did to my third gen iPod that cost 500 dollars when it wouldn't work like it should."

How much did it cost to repair the Merc?

Thank you James for your comments. I in fact do have a problem with it, as Jodie has, so please do not tell me I am INCORRECT. Just because you have yet to experience the same problem does not mean we are not experiencing it. As I clearly stated, it was working fine up until about two weeks ago. I am attempting to cut and paste from the same ibook that I previously had successfully cut and pasted many times before. Now, I highlight the phrase, as before, but when I 'paste' it gives me a phrase that is from say two weeks ago. It pastes it correctly, but it's not the new phrase (if that makes sense). So, the cut and paste 'works' if you want to be pedanic about it - it's just not pasting new 'cuts'. It is like the old phrase is 'stuck' there.

I have followed the other suggestions on this site and others. A reboot doesn't work. There appears to be no other problems with the ipad. Just this.

I found this discussion as I too, who have copied and pasted many times on my ipad without any problem, is nowhaving the same problem it is pasteing the last item i copied and I was trying to find out how to get out of that mode ...when i found this very lively discussion. So the person who originally asked about this most likely is experiencing the same problem as myself and several others. I will now attempt some of the suggestions that have been offered to see if it corrects it...here's hoping. But I will NOT smash my ipad on my BMW if it doesn't work 🙂 I guess only Mercedes owners do that...ugh

I've been having trouble with copy/paste. It seems to only work on certain things, like pictures, and sometimes on text. Although I think you're over reacting a tad, I understand where you're coming from 100%.
