    Default CKEditor - Windows pop-up asking me if I want to allow access to my clipboard

    I just installed CKEditor, hoping to make life easier since the upgrade. It seemed to install fine, and I made it the default in configurations.

    But...when I try to use it I get a javascript error notice, I have try several times to paste text I've copied into the item description field, and I keep getting a Windows pop-up asking me if I want to allow access to my clipboard.

    Between the three things it's driving me a bit crazy, as I have several hundred products that have to be edited ASAP.

    Does anyone know if there's a way to fix these issues?

    Thanks in advance!

    That's a security feature in your web browser that's preventing you from pasting rich text.

    You can either turn off that feature in your browser (each browser is different), or you can just say yes every time.

    Or you can click the "Source" button in the editor window and paste it as raw HTML, bypassing the editor altogether.

    That'll work for now, thanks!

    Any handy tips about the javascript error or how the "paste" function balks?

    Thanks very much for your help.
