Some older maintained Bitcoin software may not know about newer address types. For example addresses starting with bc1.

In that case the old software won't be able to create a transaction paying to that address and the money will stay where it was.

Addresses contain a checksum, if there is a small mistake when copying the address, the checksum will not be valid and software will not attempt to create a transaction paying to a mistyped or miscopied address.
