Error importing clipboard, claims low RAM

[Thomas_Midgette@adobeforums.com]

When I attempt to copy and paste an image from another app, I receive this error message:
"could not import the clipboard because there is not enough RAM"

I'm on a PowerBook 1.25GHz with 2GB RAM, 4GB Scratch Disk, 14GB free disk space. I'm not attempting anything new to my workflow here, other than using Photoshop CS.

Anyone else having this problem, or perhaps have a solution to offer?

I believe the clipboard has a 4mb limit.

According to the install CD:
"Some applications, including the Finder, become very crash prone in the presence of large clipboards. Hence, Photoshop imposes a 4 megabyte limit on the size of any clipboard PICT it exports.

Installing "Unlimited Clipboard Size" removes this limit thereby allowing the user to export larger PICT clipboards but also increasing the chances that other applications will crash because of the amount of data on the clipboard.

To install the Unlimited Clipboard Size plug-in:
1) Make sure the Adobe Photoshop application is not currently running.

2) Copy the Unlimited Clipboard Size plug-in into the Adobe Photoshop Plug-Ins > Adobe Photoshop Only folder.

3) Launch Photoshop. The Unlimited Clipboard Size plug-in will be loaded."
