VMWare Player 6 - copy / paste doesn't work is not between the guest and host

Hi all

I am unable to cut and paste (text) or drag-and - drop (files) between the client and host and vice versa.

I am running Windows 7 (32-bit) guest on a host Windows 8.1 (64-bit).

Everything else works to date works and VMWare Tools are installed.

I spent a few hours searching and have not been able to determine if this is a known issue or just a mismatch in my environment/configuration.

Any suggestions or comments would be most welcome.

Kind regards

Hoops

Hi all

Seems I solved the problem.  It comes down to User Account Control (UAC) prompt (in my case Windows 7 (32 bit).  I have disabled UAC in the comments and drag and drop / cut and paste now works like a charm.

Autologin also now works. I had not tried to set up that more early.  That's where I read an article to disable UAC for AutoLogin work.

My VMWare tools icon now displays in the system tray.

I hope this helps someone else out there!

Thank you...

  • Interpolation: copy / paste doesn't work is not on a particular Tween properties

    Hello

    I do very simple tweens with 'new' (non-conventional) method.

    I want the object to move only after a while so I'll try to reproduce the starting position to a keyframe later but, for some reason, it doesn't work on my project while working on a test file.

    I have copy and paste properties of the first image to another key image, but it is not applied at all.

    1 = the starting position

    2 = keyframe with properties stuck but the position is still the same (between 1 and 3)

    3 = end position

    Any reason why it wouldn't work. Thank you.keyframes.png

    Solved!

    I added some ease before trying to move keyframes and this is why it does not work.

    Thanks for your tip Kglad!

  • Copy-paste doesn't work does not correctly

    If i:

    Here's how to do a system restore:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

    Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  • Copy / paste doesn't work is not in design mode...

    I work on a project and we have to use a layout that is not one of the layouts of dreamweaver. I use DW version CS5 and I copy and pasted a max design layout in a new file called index.html; Also, I generated a CSS page and copied this information also to keep the style. All is well in live mode view, but now the problem I have is that I'm not able to change my index.html in design mode, I can modify it in code view but not design mode and I need to change it in Design view to add images and other style I want. What can I do to fix this?

    Which is usually caused by elements in the code being out of order or nested inside each other by accident. Usually, the cause of an accidental drag and drop.

    You have the page downloaded somewhere we can take a look?

    If not, you can run the code through this validator: http://validator.w3.org/#validate-by-input

  • LR 5 doesn't work is not on the new Macbook Pro.

    LR 5 doesn't work is not on the new Macbook Pro.  Have tried 2 CC downloads, download licensed 5.6 and 5.5 download licensed, all the results in the same thing.  It comes up with the screen base but no signs and gives that an error occurred when changing the modules.  Nothing I have tried seems to help.  He also said "start with lightroom mobile at the top on the left, although it said it's Lr 5.6.  Anyone else having problems?  Calls to adobe are no help and have to wait until Monday for technical support.  Surely this must run on a NEW laptop with any other installed software!

    Setup logs was very good.  Application installed but is not working properly.  Finally got Adobe support and it turns out be a file permissions error.  Had to add applications and myself as accessors of the Lightroom folder under ~/Library/Adobe/ path and set permissions to read & write (was read only for everything except system) and apply to all the cases closed.   Works fine now.  Including this here in case when someone else is going through this issue.

  • Copy / paste doesn't work anymore

    I've just upgraded to the latest version of VMWare Fusion 2.0.4 with Mac OS X and Windows Vista. Now, copy and paste stopped working. No idea how to solve this problem?

    The problem is that I can't install VMWare Tools. In the menu, the only option I have is "cancel installation of the VMware Tools". If I choose this option, then, I have the option "Install VMware tools". If I choose this option, then the machine does nothing (no installation happens). So, I'm in an endless loop that I can't get on. No idea how to install VMware tools in these circumstances?

    When you choose Virtual Machine > install VMware Tools what happens is inserts ISO Image to VMware tools appropriate in the CD/DVD of the merger and Windows if the Auto-Insert Notification does not work then you must manually run the : \setup.exe in Windows Explorer.

  • Enter an interactive Youtube player on board animate - doesn't work does not correctly!

    Hi people!

    I'm working on a new project that is based on an interactive web video.

    In the edge animate proyect I implemented a player full screen Youtube has interactivity. On the one hand, in the edge project, I've included a JS that contains the definition of the Youtube API reader and all its functions to allow interactivity. On the other side, in the HTML code that creates the edge animate, I've included the div for the player and a few buttons to play and stop the video.

    When I run the Web site using Dashboard animate everything works correctly, but when I open the HTML file without edge animate, the Youtube player is not defined (the player div is empty). I think that the problem may be related to the external JS file in the dashboard project.

    I do not see why this external JS with the functions of Youtube load only when it is started from the edge soft Animation.

    My goal is to load this project as an include file OAM end in Wordpress with the Youtube player and its interactivity.

    Need help for this question! Some know how to fix it?


    Conclusion:

    Animation full screen with Youtube Player as a backdrop with a few buttons in the project file HTML to play and stop the video. YouTube API functions inside an external JS file and included in the project of edge animate. Only works when the animation is launched with edge animate. If the HTML file is opened directly, the Youtube player is empty.

    PD: I am attaching some pictures in order to provide a clearer picture of this problem.

    project1.jpgproject2.jpgproject3.jpgproject4.jpgproject5.jpg


    When you preview of Animate, content is managed from a local server. This security error is thrown on the opening of the file from the file system in the browser.

    If you download these files on a server and open them in the browser, they could still work

  • Console Proxy doesn't work is not behind the edge load balancer

    I have a strange problem. I set up a load balancer with vShield Edge. Behind the load balancer, I have two cells vCloud. The Web interface works very well for users, but trying to connect a VMRC to view remote screen it displays 'connection' and then the session is disconnected.

    Then I stop the first cell and users can establish a VMRC connection again. When I activate the first cell once again, the web interface continues to work, but not the proxy of the console. Then I stop the second cell and now elements of the console working again.

    Have a similar setup and had the same problem.  Two things to check.  Go to c:\users\\appdata\local\temp\vmware- and open the last file vmware-vmrc - xxxx.log.  Towards the end, it should tell you why it's a failure.  For me, it was a conflict of thumbprint SSL, dating back to the different SSL certificates on the cells.  Also, be sure to vCloud Director Administration-Public address you have the right audiences VCD console address specified. To resolve the inconsistency of my mark, I just created a file certificates.ks a cell and then copied on the other cell and reran the script configures.  Good luck with VMware to help.  I opened a folder for this issue 6 days ago and have yet to get any help!
