So, this is pretty weird. Copied links (i.e. using shift+cmd+c) no longer get pasted in several applications that I rely on. These include iTerm, Sublime Text, PyCharm, Things, NotePlan. By contrast, things still work fine in Notes, TextEdit, and in the search/URL bars of Safari and Chrome (though interestingly not website content, e.g. Google’s search box).
Weirder yet, when I check the Clipboard in Finder (Edit > Show Clipboard), I can see the copied link there. It just won’t paste for some reason in half of my applications.
I’ve tried disabling apps like Alfred where I suspected there may be some interference with the clipboard. Unfortunately, that didn’t change the outcome.
If you need an interim measure, pending the fix, I am finding that I can paste Bike links into applications which don’t accept/handle the public.url clipboard content directly, by using this Keyboard Maestro macro:
Thanks – good reminder – I keep forgetting Alfred and LaunchBar.
Incidentally, in addition to copying, the script also returns the link as an output, so you could show it in a downstream notification if you wanted (for example to be sure that a link had been captured)
