Description (last modified by )
Hi,
I am using the virtual box 3.0.4 r50677. My host operating system is Windows XP and the guest operating system is fedora core 1. When the guest system is up and running, I am not able to use the clipboard of the host operating system. The copy option will be enabled however I am not able to paste the copied content in the host operating system.
But when I pause or stop the guest operating system, I was able to copy paste in the host operatin system. My email id is <e-mail deleted to prevent spam>

I forgot to add, that copy-paste works for a while after starting the machine the first time, but a few minutes later, it stop working (you can only copy on the guest machine, not in the host)

This looks like a duplicate of #4092. You might want to try the updated version of the Guest Additions linked to on that ticket to see if they solve the problem.
I'm having this issue too, and experienced it with the previous version too. I'm running on a Mac OS/X host, and Ubuntu guests (Xubuntu 9.04 and Kubuntu 9.04)
