Can you reproduce this on a clean profile? ( https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles )

> Can you reproduce this on a clean profile? ( https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles ) I cannot reproduce the problem with a clean profile. The problem intially appeared after update to FF 30 (with my 10+ years old profile).

Interesting. You can try running it with add-ons disabled (Help > Restart with add-ons disabled) to see if it's add-on related. Otherwise it's probably a pref you've twiddled. It might be helpful to figure out which one (even if we might not be able to do much about it)
(err, and by 'it' I mean your old profile)

I can reproduce the problem with my old profile in "safe mode" (add-ons disabled). > Otherwise it's probably a pref you've twiddled. By simply searching for "clipboard" in my "prefs.js" I found the line ----------------------------------------------------------------- user_pref("clipboard.autocopy", true); ----------------------------------------------------------------- I simply replaced "true" by "false", and the problem disappeared! Thank you very much!
