Something has been bugging me with OS X for a while — sometimes the OS X clipboard (officially known as “pasteboard”) gets stuck and won’t accept any new ‘copied’ content. Instead, when you ‘paste’ in any app, the clipboard always pastes back the last thing you successfully copied. One solution to this is to reboot the Mac, but since Mac OS X is generally so stable and doesn’t need to be periodically rebooted as a matter of course, rebooting a machine with many open apps and windows can be a hassle. Searching for this issue online provides a lot of bad advice (one website I saw said “repair permissions and if that doesn’t work, reinstall the OS” terrible advice.) Other websites incorrectly advise to kill the PBS process and restart it. Apple’s manual page for PBS notes it is not related to the Pasteboard process. Instead, the correct process to kill is PBoard. Click once on your email account to select. How to set up gmail with outlook for mac download. Click Change, then click More Settings. Not entirely sure why I can't paste a URL copied from my chrome address bar to my Mac Notes app except I temporarily paste it somewhere 1st. (on forums): can't copy/paste URL from chrome to. You can copy and paste text and images between your files — even if you're going from one type of file. Mac: ⌘ + c for Copy, ⌘ + x for Cut, and ⌘ + v for Paste. So, to fix a stuck clipboard (pasteboard) problem, you simply need to: 1. Open your application folder 2. Open the utilities subfolder 3. Open the Activity Monitor app 4. Type “pboard” into the search box at the top right 5. In the search results below, there should only be one result — a row listing the “pboard” process. Highlight it by clicking on it. Click the “x” button at the top left of the window which represents ‘quit this process’ Once you’ve done that, OS X will kill the faulty PBoard process and re-establish it with a fresh one automatically. Your clipboard should be back to normal. I have a suspicion that this stuck clipboard is a bug in OS X Mavericks 10.9 – I don’t recall it happening before I installed that. It is still an (infrequent) current problem as at 10.9.2. ![]() The above didn’t fix mine, either. THIS FIXED MINE: Using Copy or Cut to Delete the Clipboard Highlight any text on any window on the Mac, including a TextEdit document, words on a Web page or even the title of a file in Finder. To take up as little memory in the clipboard as possible, you can highlight a single letter, a space between two words or a punctuation mark. Press “Command” and “C” at the same time on the keyboard to copy the text to your clipboard. This deletes any text that was in the clipboard and replaces it with what you just copied. Press “Command” and “X” to cut the text on an editable document instead of copying it if you want to ensure that you cleared the clipboard successfully. ![]() Without moving the cursor, immediately press “Command” and “V” to paste the text back exactly where it was. This illustrates that the clipboard contains the text you just copied without altering your document. Credit: AZCentral •. Does not work for me – activity monitor cannot terminate pboard even with force quit. On my system 10.13.5 (High Sierra) it is Word that causes the biggest trouble – sometimes when using clipboard it begins doing strange things (I type one letter and it starts changing the text I’m typing in unpredictable ways) or it hangs like now I’m just trying to copy some text between two docx files. The pboard process had 9 threads and when I force-quit Word it went down to 2, so Word is probably hogging it. The location for Chrome’s default profile folder differs depending on your platform. The locations are: • Windows 7, 8.1, and 10: C: Users AppData Local Google Chrome User Data Default • Mac OS X El Capitan: Users//Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default • Linux: /home//.config/google-chrome/default Just replace with the name of your user folder. The default profile folder is simply named Default (or default in Linux). However, if you’ve created additional profiles, their folder names are not as obvious. The name you assigned to the profile when you created it displays on a name button on the right side of the title bar on the Chrome window. Unfortunately, the name Chrome uses on the associated profile folder is a generic, numbered name like “Profile 3”. Best baackup for mac. If you need to edit one of your other profiles, you can figure out its folder name quite simply.
