  • Cannot paste a path from illustrator

    Posted by Erik Waluska on December 7, 2010 at 5:23 pm

    For some reason, I’m no longer able to paste a path from Illustrator to Photoshop. It works fine on my Mac at work and I’m fairly sure it was working fine on my PC at home but now when I copy a path in Illustrator and try to paste into Photoshop nothing happens, no dialog appears and the Edit>Paste option is grayed out. I tried it in a new document and with different paths and also tried pasting into After Effects, which worked fine, but not Photoshop. I couldn’t find any preference options for this either. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
    Thanks

    Never mind, it’s working now. After Effects just locked up for no reason and I had to force quit so I closed all open Adobe apps and restarted them and now the copy/paste path is working. There were several Adobe updates including a couple for photoshop that I ran when I first turned on the system today so I don’t know if that had anything to do with it or not.
