problem found within a program and across programs.
the following actions have failed to solve the problem
1- reboot
2- safe reboot
3- kill pboard
anyone with same problem ? anyone with a solution ?
thanks
Mac Pro, macOS High Sierra (10.13.3), Mac Pro mid 2010
WORKED FOR ME, Try This from terminal
Found some information on other link posted by someone and used it and worked for me, Pasting below after i tried it myself
open terminal and type
sudo update_dyld_shared_cache
It will ask you for your admin password, which you enter and hit "Return".
Let it run until it is done (it will spit out a bunch of "warnings" - DO NOT BE ALARMED, THIS IS NORMAL).
Then restart your Mac.

thanks, but the method got hung up at the password. it was not accepted.
however, reloading Mac High Sierra seems to have solved the problem.
it has only been a few minutes, but the copy paste function is working.
got the idea from following your thread and reading further to someone else's comment
so in a roundabout way, you contributed to the solution
thanks again
A follow up status:
Reloaded Mac High Sierra from the App Store; that solved the problem.
Have tested the copy & paste capability for several hours now, still functional.
Now, as soon as I reloaded Mac High Sierra (10.13.3), i was informed that there were updates waiting in the App Store. One of them was the Supplemental update to 10.13.3 to address the character bug. I did NOT download this, since i have a hunch that it was responsible for my computer's copy & paste problem.
A 2nd computer (macBook Air, MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3), which was upgraded with the 10.13.3 supplement some time ago, has not shown any copy & paste problem.
the same issue just like yours ,friend. 😁
i can't copy and paste text between APPS, and when i restart it,it's OK.
but sometime it happens again!!!
i don't have a clue,too...😢
I am facing the same issue and No solution worked as mentioned by yourself.
copy and paste not working, Mac Pro, High Sierra 10.13.3
