So basically my macbook won't allow to copy and paste (command+c or command+v). Also when opening safari it works for about a second, but when I begin to type anything it closes without any error report. For instance, if I began to type something in the google search engine it would shut down, or even in an e-mail.

Safari will open and then as soon as I type something in a search engine, for instance, it shuts down without an error report. Also command c and command v aren't working! Neither is dragging, for if i want to drag something into the trash can it won't work. Lastly I was attempting to reinstall HP printer software, but that isn't working either.

Reset it from the file menu. If that doesn't fix it, try repairing permissions.

Answered this elsewhere. You only need to post the question once.
