Hi everyone,

I have an issue with the Universal Clipboard.
  • I copy something on my MacBook Pro --> Insert it on my iPhone X --> WORKS
  • I copy something on my iPhone X --> Try to insert it on my MacBook Pro --> DOESN'T WORK
Any idea how I could fix this?

Thanks and best wishes
Chris

p.s. I'm on macOS 10.15.6 and iOS 13.6.

I had this exact problem -- only one way paste works --- this morning. First step is: Turn off Handoff on both devices. Then turn back on. Test. Second, turn off Handoff, restart, then turn on and test.

If those don't work for you (they didn't form me) check with thread with more detailed discussion.

Update: It turned out that the problem somehow solved itself in the meantime. Just tried it again and now it works. Maybe some iOS/macOS update fixed this for me.
But thanks nonetheless, now I at least know what to do if I have this issue again in the future.
