Hi,

Have searched google, these forums, and the kb but not found any answers to a current issue I have. We’re using Adobe Photoshop CS2 as part of the CS2 suite on an Intel iMac 10.4.6 w/ 2gb ram and plenty of free disk space.

On startup, we get a popup box that says

=-=-=
Could not import the clipboard because of an error
getting data from the clipboard or another
application.
=-=-=

on clicking ‘OK’, it pops up a second time.

Can anyone please explain why this is occurs, and more importantly, how to fix it?

You could turn off Export Clipboard in General Preferences if you don’t need it–I never do.
