not work copy and paste the google translation , drag and drop works. only firefox .thanks
I forgot, the Firefox version is 16.0.2, I think in the previous version worked, I tried it in safe mode and gives the same problem
I'm not sure what you mean, could you describe reproduction steps please?
I have the same problem... The translated text (from the box with grey background) can't be copied. The text from text box (text to be translated) can be copied. Yesterday it worked. Today (01 Nov 2012, after Firefox automatic update and/or Add-on automatic updates, the Copy/Paste function don't work in translate.google.com page. Neither Ctrl+C nor Right Click + Copy. Only select translated text + Drag and Drop in Microsoft Word works. I tried to use Clipboard Viewer (clipbrd.exe) from WinXP to see if something is copied in clipboard. If I select the translated text and I press Ctrl+C, I receive the following error message from ClipBook Viewer [Clipboard]: "ClipBook Viewer cannot display the information in its current format or there is not enough memory to display it. Quit one or more applications to increase the available memory, and then try again." The problem is only in Firefox 16.0.2. In IE copy/paste function works. I have Windows 7 x64 OS / 16GB RAM.
I see, there seems to be upstream bug already: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=807599
