Chemdraw Prime 15 copy and paste completely broken

I have recently upgraded to Chemdraw Prime 15 on Mac OS 10.11.6.

I am now unable to copy and paste anything from Chemdraw to most applications. It seems the clipboard is just empty after copying. I used to be able to paste as PDF into Office 2015 documents. That no longer is an option. I used to be able to copy and paste back and forth with Apple Keynote - that no longer works. I used to be able to copy and paste into a new Preview document to create an image. That no longer works. Word in Office 2011 does seem to work but I don't know how long that is going to be supported at my university.

My only work around now is to copy and paste the chemdraw into a clean new chemdraw document and save it as an image to use in other applications. The ability to copy and paste within chemdraw tells me SOMETHING is in the clipboard. This has now tripled the time it takes me to prepare presenatations. And let's not talk about editing afterwards.

Help? I don't think everyone has this problem. Is there something interfering with my clipboard that is not compatible?
