I discovered this problem yesterday of not being able to paste text or the code to embed a You Tube video. Managed to solve it by clicking on the ‘paste as text’ button, and then copy and paste as usual – worked perfect first time. If you’ve already tried to paste text normally and it failed, make sure to press the backspace key to wipe out what you have ‘invisibly’ pasted, because I found if I didn’t do that it wouldn’t work with the ‘paste as text’ button either. Best to press that button as soon as you open a new post, avoids a lot of frustration!
I hope this helps someone, and I hope WordPress really do resolve the problem soon, because it’s definitely ‘not resolved’ and there’s going to be a lot of confused, frustrated bloggers out there, who won’t think to try the ‘paste as text’ button, and probably a lot less posts posted as a result.

I am having the same issue and discovered it when trying to embed a youtube video by copying the URL and passing it into my draft. Now I realize this is not a video embedding problem, it is a cut and paste problem. Very frustrating. WordPress: please get this resolved quickly!!

I agree adatoc. WordPress, this problem just came up in the past 1-2 weeks. Have you made any programing changes during that period of time?
