CopyPaste Pro for Mac

User Reviews

• Excellent program. Very useful

  daseltzerAugust 3, 2014

  Pros

  Ability to access multiple clips and to archive them. It's very easy to use, seems to play well with others and so far seems basically problem free.

  Cons

  There really aren't any I can think of.

  Summary

  Excellent, well behaved, very useful program.

• Had to revert to earlier version since Mavericks.

  xenos23January 28, 2014

  Pros

  Multiple clipboards and palates, and the easy copy and paste functions they offer has made CopyPaste indispensable to me.

  Cons

  As of Mavericks, using 3.5 meant disappearing palates and generally uneven performance. I happened to have the disk image of an earlier version (3.3) in my applications folder. After uninstalling 3.5, and reinstalling 3.3, the app works as before.

  Summary

  If you can find an earlier download, use it until they work out the bugs.

• Serious bugs in Mavericks

  MathmnJanuary 11, 2014

  Pros

  Used to be wonderfully easy to use.

  Cons

  Basic functions such as "command C" and "command v" don't work anymore with Mavericks. I've used CopyPaste Pro for decades and it has now failed me.

• No tech support anymore

  matantisiNovember 2, 2013

  Pros

  Great when it isn't broken

  Cons

  I've used CPP since the days of 0S9, and I've loved it, but it's broken - the Clip Archive no longer accepts clips, and the Clip History is completely random in what it saves from log in to log in. I've written 3 times to support and not received as much as an acknowledgment of my request.

  Summary

  This was an absolutely great product for years, but since it was sold to Plum Amazing, it's been all downhill. Look somewhere else.

• LOOK ELSEWHERE for a decent clipboard app

  zunipusJanuary 26, 2013

  Pros

  In its day it was excellent! Those days are way over.

  Cons

  Ancient bugs the developer doesn't give rat's about. NO tech support at all. Lazy, apathetic developer. A serious PITA to use at times.

  Summary

  LOOK ELSEWHERE for a decent clipboard extension and management program. Here's why: There are two big fat, ancient, never repaired bugs in CopyPaste Pro that have inspired me to look elsewhere. 1) At unpredictable times, it breaks simple Command-C. It simply does not work, period. You must use an added keyboard command to copy anything. The only cure is to Quit the app. Then Command-C works again. You can restart CopyPaste Pro again and probably Command-C will work for a while. But it will eventually break again. (In fact, it broke right now! Just when I needed it. PITA!) 2) Command-C-3 and Command-C-4 haven't worked in MANY years. They are unusable. You'll fail if you try. These problems occur on all Macs i have used, all versions of OS X. They are universal. I've been a CopyPaste Pro beta tester for years. I told the developer about both of these ancient bugs. NOTHING AT ALL was ever done to fix them. In the case of the Command-C-3 and -4 problems, the developer threw up his hands and gave up. I'm not convinced he ever bothered to try to fix them. I believe he was just too lazy to care. In the case of the breaking of Command-C, I've told him three times, from kindly to EMPHATICALLY and he plain old don't give a rat's. He doesn't care. That's a WORTHLESS relationship between developer and customer. It's reckless apathy, undeserving of anyone's financial support. Therefore, I can only suggest: LOOK ELSEWHERE for a decent clipboard extension and manager application. This is NOT the application you're looking for. I'm a very long time CPP user who is disgusted with the now lazy, uncaring developer. NOT worth your money. NOT worth your frustration.

• Response to customer inquiries is nil.

  elireuvenJune 10, 2012

  Pros

  Good multi-clipboard app.

  Cons

  Doesn't have "paste as plain text" functionality. Even more importantly, over the last few weeksI have written to them several times with a question, and I have received no replies at all.

  Summary

  Good utility, but no support.

• Can't live without it!

  koolkat9March 11, 2011

  Pros

  Every aspect of this must-have software goes beyond anything that's available. It short circuits simple and complex tasks into amazingly swift work. Love the editor that comes with it. One of the best products on the market.

  Cons

  None for me!
