m Sounds cannot be transferred on the Clipboard between the Mac OS and
Windows. You can use a sound translation program to transfer sound files.
m When you’re in the PC environment, all Mac OS programs are put in the
background and the PC Clipboard runs in the foreground. You can prevent
this by removing the PC Clipboard extension from the Extensions folder
(inside the System Folder in the Mac OS). Removing the extension turns
off clipboard translation between the Mac OS and Windows.
Note: If you remove the extension, you will see an alert message every
time you switch from the PC to the Mac OS.
m If you have trouble pasting information between Windows and the
Mac OS, try the following:
m Assign more memory to the PC Clipboard utility and to the Mac OS
application into which you are pasting information.
m In the Macintosh Easy Open control panel, make sure the Automatic
Document Translation option is turned on. To open this control panel,
choose Control Panels from the Apple menu, and double-click the
Macintosh Easy Open icon.
m Save the document you’re copying from in a different format. Then
reopen the document and copy the material you want to move.
m Use the Paste Special command that is available in some Windows
applications. This command lets you specify the format of material
you’re pasting.
m If you’re pasting an image to the Win95 WordPad, try using the
command Insert Object as Paintbrush Picture.
m Images that are compressed in the Mac OS (such as Kodak Photo CD
thumbnails) may display only in gray when you paste them into
Windows. If this happens, try expanding the image before copying it.
