One of the more notable changes among those of us who collect, use, and recommend more than our fair share of applications is the need to have apps that work everywhere. By everywhere, I mean applications like Apple’s Calendar app which works and synchronizes between Mac, iPhone, iPad, and even Watch. These days I want a new app to work across all my devices. One that is just coming into its own is the clipboard.

IPhone (or iPod touch). Just be careful that you don’t exceed your monthly 3G data allotment. The iPhone is almost identical to the iPad as a Netflix device, except for its smaller screen. Personally, I find the iPhone’s display too small to be desirable for movie viewing. Netflix app for mac os.

Copy And Paste App Windows 8

If you need to move a block of text, an image or another object from one part of a document to another, or from one app to another, you need to use copy (or cut) and paste. On Mac, the keyboard shortcuts for this are different to other devices. Highlight the text/object. Copy by pressing Cmd +. In the past RDC came with the MacBook and I could copy text from my Mac and paste it into my remote session, and vice versa. However I'm running OS X 10.9 using the latest Microsoft Remote Desktop app and it won't let me cut and paste. The clipboard on your Mac isn’t a particularly impressive feature. You can copy something, and then paste it. That’s pretty much it — it’s just a small, temporary storage area.

Apple gives you one clipboard item at a time. There is a better way. Copy Here To There The way the Mac’s clipboard works is much the same as on iPad, iPhone, and every device known to computerdom.

Command-C copies an item– text, graphic, photo, whatever– and saves it on the built-in clipboard. One item at a time. The past few years have seen a growing app cottage industry in clipboard managers which save whatever you copy so you can paste it in a document at any time. Even better are clipboard managers which keep clipboard items synchronized between Mac, iPhone, and iPad. That’s what does. Imagine having a collection of whatever you’ve copied recently available on every Apple computer you own. Pretty cool, no?

Of course, not everyone needs to have their clipboards synchronized, but once you’ve tried it you’ll see the advantages right away. For Mac users, it’s just a matter of pulling down a menu from the Menubar. Whatever you’ve copied recently is available and most items are visible. Items can be pasted into documents or shared. With an upgrade option, Clipboards can also be shared with other Copy Parrot users, which makes for a good work environment with multiple Macs, iPhones, or iPads and up to four clipboards can be created. IPad Pro users can use the split screen option to view Copy Parrot items side-by-side with another open application.
