Xcode Clipboard: Copy & Paste stuck

I've just updated to Xcode 9.4.1 and experienced an issue with the clipboard being cleared randomly.

So I select a text, hit CMD+C, then go to the position I want to paste it, hit CMD+V, but either

  • it plays the system alert sound and doesn't paste anything, or
  • it pastes a previous snippet that I copied earlier.

Update

Still remains with Xcode 10.1

Update 2

Still remains with Xcode 11

Solution

  • Turning off the 'Automatically Sync Pasteboard' option in the Edit menu of the Simulator works for me. I read it in Apple forums
