Emacs: CUA mode. Paste(yank) in minibuffer not work

Emacs 24.5, turn on CUA mode. My binding:

(global-set-key (kbd "M-x") 'helm-M-x)

I want paste(yank) by C-v in minibuffer in 2 cases:

  1. M-x and then paste(C-v) some text
  2. I-search (C-f) and then paste(C-v) some text

Is this a possible in CUA mode?

I found a solution from: http://tahirhassan.blogspot.kr/2014/01/emacs-cua-mode-and-isearch.html

(define-key isearch-mode-map (kbd "C-v") 'isearch-yank-kill)

It works for me.

  • M-x C-v works fine, with emacs -Q (no init file).

  • C-s C-v does not - it seems that cua-mode does not affect Isearch - just use C-y instead of C-v. If you want a change in that regard (i.e., an improvement for cua-mode with Isearch), consider filing an Emacs enhancement request: M-x report-emacs-bug.

  • If the problem is introduced by using Helm (which it seems to be), consider filing a Helm bug report or asking Helm support. (But maybe someone here can tell you how to handle that.)
