Hi,

I tried the new version of CopyPaste recently. Now, Launcher does not work
(-192 error) and my ADB port freezes off and on. The authors claim that
there are no known incompatibilities, but I am absolutely sure the CopyPaste
is the problem. I have dumped CopyPaste, but still have the above symptoms.
Help anyone?

Cheers,

My usual procedure would be to first delete the desktop database file
using TechTool. If that doesn't work then a PRAM Zap (also using
TechTool). Run Apple's Drive Setup (1.7.2) and select Update Driver.
Finally there's Norton Disk Doctor to run too.

Still having problems? Reinstall the OS by booting off the OS CD and
trashing the System Suitcase and Finder from the hard disk's System
Folder. This will make for a semi-clean reinstall of the OS. A
complete clean install would be a whole new system folder but that's a
lot of work.

Have you tried deleting the Launcher prefs file? Also, check Apple's 
tech info library. I think that this is a known problem.
