Hi Scott
In your target folder, do you have any files highlighted? If you do,
press vo-keys+cmd+f4 to deselect it. The reason is due to a
difference in the way OS X's paste function works--rather than
pasting into the folder you're in no matter what is highlighted, it
will attempt to paste the file into whatever folder you have
highlighted. If you've got a file highlighted, it can't paste into
that, so it does nothing--logically it makes sense to do it this way
even if it is sometimes annoying. That is the only time I've seen the
behavior you describe.

Folks, is there any reason why I can't copy a file from my Desktop
to another folder? I highlight the file and try copying it and it
says copied, but then I can't past it into another folder. If I
press command + v it does and says absolutely nothing. I've not run
into this before and I'm sure there's a reason.
Any thoughts/suggestions appreciated.
tnx
