CMD-C doesn't function in the Help...

This happens to me regularly and not just in the Help, but I haven't 
yet managed to work out what triggers it. The menu hilites, but nothing 
happens, so you end up pasting something totally different to the text 
you just copied, or worse - not saving when you think you have! The 
solution is to go to Preferences and click the "Reset Preferences to 
Defaults" button. This is a pain as you then have to go through and 
reset your personal preferences, but it does fix the problem. 
Interestingly, the Cmd-C & other menu shortcuts all work perfectly in 
the Script editor - it's only the main menu bar that loses this ability.

If anyone can come up with a recipe for what triggers this misbehavior, 
I will bugzilla it.

Cheers,
Sarah
