I had been working with an older non-cloud version of Photoshop CS5 and Fontlab Studio 5.1.2 on an iMac with El Capitan for the last few years. Just this week I updated to Fontlab 5.1.6 and updated my OS to Sierra OS 10.12.6. I just discovered that I can no longer copy and paste between Photoshop and Fontlab or from Fontlab to Photoshop.
Any ideas what is causing this issue?

About Fontlab I can’t be much of help as I never used bitmaps for this purpose, I think you’d get better feedback by posting your question in the Fontlab Forums, in the appropriate section for Studio 5:

What exact version of FontLab Studio 5 are you running?
I'm running mostly on older versions of everything. My Adobe apps are CS5. My current Fontlab is version 5.16. I upgraded Fontlab from 5.04 just before all this happened as well. For some reason 5.16 has a lot more bugs than the earlier version. For example, when I copy bits of feature code it drops the ending punctuation. What I find most annoying is working back and forth between the feature code panel and the OT Preview. I used to be able to change a bit of code and immediately see the update in the OT Preview. Now every time I compile the code there it deactivates selected features in the OT Preview. It also deactivates if I hit save. I wondered if my Fontlab update might be the cause of my inability to paste letters into Fontlab.
5.1.x fixes many issues in 5.0.4, but it does have several new ones as well.
