Is it possible to copy paste between Mac OS and its virtual machine? I am running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3, and I have installed VMware to run virtual machines: Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.10.

I have also installed VM Tools.

I would like to know if it is possible allow copy paste among the three systems? It seems that, by default (just by mouse) it is not permitted.

Edit1: I am using VMware Fusion 4.1.2, and the Settings for both Windows and Ubuntu is as follows:

 

Edit2: I just realize that the copy paste (both two directions) between Mac and Windows work by default. But the copy paste between Mac and Ubuntu or Ubuntu and Windows does not work...

By the way, I just want to copy texts...

Edit3: I just shut down the 2 virtual machines, and rebooted them, and copying and pasting texts among them works fine... It is really odd... So I guess I had done something on my Ubuntu, which disabled copying and pasting, then rebooting Ubuntu reset it...
You can find a lot of documentation about copy/paste, drag and drop,... on the website of VMWare, and they stated: 


  To use the copy and paste feature, VMware Tools must be installed on
  the virtual machine.


But since you've already installed those tools, I recommend you reinstall them. Just to be sure.

Also, make sure you don't stumble upon the limits of this feature:  


  
  You cannot copy and paste or drag and drop content that exceeds the internal buffer limit of 4MB.
  Copy and paste or drag and drop of formatted text containing images might not work across different operating systems.
  Copying and pasting files from the host to an Outlook email message or compressed folder in the guest and vice versa might fail. 
  Workaround: Copy files from host to the guest desktop first and then
  paste the files from the guest desktop into the Outlook email message
  or compressed folder.
