Hey all,

Not sure where to post this so apologies in advance!

I used to be able to copy something on one device and paste it using another either between my laptop/desktop and phone. This seems to have stopped working though. I've looked and Handoff is turned on etc.

Does anyone know how to get this neat little feature back? I'm sure it's obvious, just not to me! Ha-ha

Cheers,
Ben

Have you exceeded the universal clipboard two minute timeout?
 
Not sure - I didn't know that was a thing... I just tried to copy a word off my Desktop and paste it on my phone but it didn't work. Not a massive issue just a neat little feature. Thanks for the reply. :)
