Windows I presume? ctrl+v is paste (ctrl+x=cut, ctrl+c=copy)

Ctrl-V is the keyboard shortcut for "paste". You should probably click once in the blank, then hit ctrl-V.

I just bought it myself Friday, and had the same problem. I solved it by copying the gobbly goop of numbers a little at a time. Copy say the first ten digits, paste them into the registration box, then the next ten and so on. Worked for me ... Spectre

I've had this be the case with some applications. I am not sure why, but the password field occasionally will not take information from the Clipboard. You simply have to type it in. If you are confused about zeros and o's and things which I often am I find it helpful to have the computer's text-to-speech module read the serial out for me. While the application's register box won't take the clipboard, I've never had this be the case with a text editor. Good luck!

Yup, the 3D Exploration serial number is a trick to cut and paste. The trick is not to select all of the lines at one time. Select one line of text at a time and paste it in; then the next, and so on. It should take then.
