Solution

  • just try to create a subclass of UITextView that overrides the canPerformAction:withSender: method 

    - (BOOL)canPerformAction:(SEL)action withSender:(id)sender
{
    if (action == @selector(paste:))
        return NO;
    return [super canPerformAction:action withSender:sender];
}
