Does OSX maintain any sort of clipboard history (similar to what Microsoft Word offers)? Basically I copied something to clipboard and pasted it, then copied something else and pasted it but I am wondering if there is any way to retrieve the first item I copied to clipboard?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI admit that the question is not really clear. But here is the list of events:
1) Nov 2010: my MacBook Pro 13-inch on OS 10.6.8 from mid-2010 (2.66GHz core2 duo with 8G RAM) did not wake up from sleep when clamshell was opened. I called Apple Care and did SMC reset and the matter seemed to be resolved.
2) Jan 03 2012: Same issue happened. Same call to Apple and same SMC reset. Matter seemed resolved.
3) April 10 2012: Same issue happened. Apple Care recommented OS reinstallation.
4) April 12 2012: Performed Mac OS 10.6 reinstallation using the factory disc. No hiccups during installation. Performed software update afterwards (update package 10.6.8 combo v1.1) . No problems detected. Performed permission repair (disk utility). Then rebooted the computer. Here is the problem: Upon rebooting the computer, the sound volume setting was on low (1/4 of the max). I switched it to max. I rebooted the computer to reset PRAM.
Upon reboot, the sound volume was still on low (1/4 of max). I called Apple care, deleted the 2 plist files in library/preferences/audio, switched the volume to maximum and then rebooted the mac. Upon reboot, the sound volume remained on low setting (1/4 of max).
5) I did another OS reinstallation and software update. Same thing all over.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI hope this hasn't been covered elsewhere (I can't find it if it has).My problem is that the history setting although set to " Remove history items after one day " does not. I Have reset Safari 4.0.3 and it still doesn't delete the history. Applecare can't seem to solve the problem either. Please help, although this isn't a major problem it is very annoying. This was happening before SL and I was hoping SL upgrade may have fixed this but it hasn't.

View 2 Replies View RelatedEver since I updated one of my work machines to Snow Leopard yesterday, I am unable to copy photos to the clipboard in Preview or similar apps. The option is grayed out. I usually do this to change icons, but I've had to use third-party apps to do this since the upgrade. I'm sure it has to do with permissions, but I'm not very well versed in that aspect of OS X yet.

I am using a MacBookPro late 2009 running10.9.3. I am using Ffx version 30.0, latest edition. I copy some text onto my clipboard using Command-C and then I use Command-F to find text on the firefox window. then when I try to paste my clipboard text (with Command-V), whatever I typed into the Command-F window is what gets pasted. This overwriting of my clipboard is brand new - Ffx never worked this way before.
I have restarted my computer. I have reset Firefox. I have restarted Firefox in safe mode -> the problem persists. I am using the Default theme in Firefox. I do not have any extensions. I have only a few add-ons but when they are disabled (= safe mode) the problem persists. I have unchecked the "use hardware acceleration when possible" option in Firefox preferences and the problem persists. I posted in Mozilla support and so far I have been told to try safe mode (doesn't work, as above). I have tried selecting the "automatically search when I start to type" in Ffx to go around the Command-F step --> the problem persists.
Edited to add: the command-F search function works fine. That's not the issue. It's that using Command-F automatically overwrites my clipboard text with whatever text I type into the command-F search box.

I have been searching online for a few days now for a clipboard manager that can handle shortcuts/abbreviations. I do a lot of copy and pasting frequently used templates into forms for work and right now, it's not working the way I want it to. Currently, I use "Clips" as a solution. It works great... sometimes. I have submitted a ticket twice about my problem and no one seems to get back to me. What happens is that I will type my abbreviation and then it will either paste what I want in place of it, or not. If it doesn't, I have to restart "Clips" to get it to work again. Driving me insane when it stops multiple times during my sessions of filling out forms. I have about 5 phrases that I keep saved with an abbreviation as a shortcut.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI lost some very important data last night and was wondering if there's anyway to retrieve it. I had copied it from a textarea box in a webpage at one point to my clipboard. Is there anyway that I can see clipboard history or view a cache file from Safari that will have the data I had copied?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI understand that in order to view your clipboard (iMac) that you click "Edit" on the Finder, and "show clipboard". I created a public link (Alias) and it has gone into my clipboard but, when I click on it, to copy and then paste into, for example, an email, I don't have an option to do that. Therefore, I have to write the link down and then re-type it into the email.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running 10.5.2 on a MB Pro. Previously, when I used the built-in screen capture utility (Command+Shift+3 (or 4)) the capture would be saved in .png format into my "Desktop" directory. Now, when I do captures the data is not saved to a file, but instead is copied to my clipboard. Why and how can I correct this?

Why does my mac stop downloading files, copying to clipboard, saving files to desktop, etc?
iMac g5 1.9 ghz 17" running 10.5.8. Had a hard drive crash and bought a new one. Loaded new OS leapord. Everything works fine at first, but after the computer has been on for a while, it will stop downlading files, disk verify doesn't work. I can't copy and paste stuff. It seems as if the hard drive is full, but I have only used 32GB of 300GB.
When I restart, it works again, then slowly not. Is it an overheating issue? How do I know if my fan is running? Is it a bad hard drive I put in it? Bought it new with three year waranty.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOk, this one really baffles me. When my Mac Pro is turned off, turning it back on it does nothing but display red LED's internally. When I remove the cover and the internal clear plastic cover - it starts up. This leads me to believe there is some sort of switch which recognizes that the cover has been removed. However, I'm at a loss as to why the boot is failing in the first place.
