Third-party clipboard managers and Fusion crashes

$
0
0

Running OSX Lion (fully updated) on a Mac Mini with VMWare Fusion 4.1.1.

 

I have three VMs: Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 SP1, and Kubuntu.

 

If I have PTHPasteboard running on the Mac side, I notice that coping files from my guest VM to my host frequently (over 90% of the time) causes Fusion to crash. The files seem to successfully copy, so the crash occurs after that. It occurs when I see a prolonged Fusion "Preparing to Copy" message.

 

I also tested this with other third-party OSX clipboard managers: ClipMenu and Paste Master. The same problem occurs if one of them is active.

 

If disable my third-party clipboard manager, copying files from my guest to my host is fine.

 

This problem occurs in all three of the above-mentioned VMs.

 

Manually uninstalling Fusion (as instructed in the knowledgebase), followed by restarting the Mac and then reinstalling Fusion 4.1.1, fails to resolve this.

 

Any help would be appreciated.
