Matching of clipboard hosts is also imperfect--on some computers PTHPBP lists itself as a publisher to subscribe to.

One of the bullet items:
- Scrapbook-Sharing over Bonjour (incl. Snippets)
It's been updated nearly a dozen times since the initial release, after the last minor PTHPasteboard update.

Sure wish PTHPBP would sync reliably!

I am running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3. It works very quickly. It works with large text passages or graphics. And it uses very little CPU time. It has been very very stable. It doesn't take up much screen space.
I love the fact that it has the capability of processing the text in the clipboard (e.g. convert to UPPERCASE, translate to Spanish, etc.) before pasting the contents.
I like the fact that it can show as both a pop-up menu and menu.
PTHPastboard Pro has done the job for me for years. I use to use the free version for years and converted to the pro version during the conversion years ago from Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X.
I keep looking for a better solution. But I haven't found one yet.

No response from the developers and no updates for some time.
I've reluctantly switched to iClip.

I could not find any recent indications on the developer's site regarding plans to update. In early August I sent an inquiry to the developer concerning an update for Lion. I received no response after 4 days.
I've used PTHPasteboard Pro for about two years and rely on the filters, which are powerful functions and easy to set up. Unfortunately, it's now unreliable.

It's good to see that the developers are still keeping the utility up to date too!

I purchased it using it Paypal. After 24 hours I was supposed to receive my serial number... Now, 11 days after this day I still don’t have it... and the demo mode is expiring in 3 days. I wrote to the support at least 3 letters: NO REACTION at all.
I start to think this is a fraud. Very soon - when the demo version expires - I will be forced to claim against the developer at Paypal.
By careful buying it!

To bad, but at this moment I am forced to claim for money back at Paypal.

Hoverer, it took 16 days, I had to write 4 letters (to 3 different addresses) and claim conflict by Paypal. It is too much energy spending for a product of 25$...

At first I regarded filters as unnecessary feature-bloat, but once I started using them their usefulness became apparent, enabling PTHP to replace several other text-manipulation utilities. Using a translation filter to paste text from the clipboard in another language is particularly cool.
Once you have sampled what it can do and how it does it, $25 does not seem that much for something you are likely to use several times a day.

You've got to be kidding. That's after selling off the free version to horrible developers and leaving users stranded.
You want to send this guy money?
ClipMenu is powerful and free. The only significant thing PTHpasteboard does which ClipMenu doesn't do is sync clipboards between multiple machines, which seems to me a bit of a security hole anyway.

Frankly, I think it's a little silly to complain about the price of PTH. The fact is that you get what you pay for. There are several clipboard managers available for around $15, and none of them offers the functionality that PTH does. If all you need is the functionality of one of these $15 dollar utilities, then by all means buy one of those. If the excellent but basic JumpCut provides all you need, then go with it. If, on the other hand, you need what PTH offers, then $24 isn't an obscene price. The only other clipboard utility that comes close to PTH, as I said before, is CopyPaste Pro, and it costs $30.

caladan diskarbitrationd[45]: PTHPasteboard [15480]:55315 not responding.
I wrote the developers last week with that info plus more. No response. Bummed because I paid for the Pro version and depend on it for a big part of my daily workflow.

The same problems I mentioned regarding the previous versions are still present. They are:
1. If one has to use it in "always show window" mode - After completing the paste actions it is impossible to close either the Main or Custom windows by clicking on their red close buttons as they are disabled and their menu bar icons do not hide and then show the windows again. It would be helpful if both these options could be available to the user as when the window is needed for pasting the user would be able to click on the required window menu bar icon and after using it could just click on the red close button. Nobody expects the windows to be shown 24 hours a day.
2. It would be useful if it were possible to move items (rather than copy) from one Custom window to another, e.g., by using a hotkey whilst dragging the item.
3. If one wishes to change the order of items in a Custom window by dragging them, they are not moved but instead are copied to the target location.
The Pro version, which just enables more features, has the same problems so I can't even upgrade to that.
The only main problem with the application, if one has to use it in "always show window" mode (like me) is:
After completing my paste actions it is impossible to close either the Main or Custom windows by clicking on their red close buttons as they are disabled and their menu bar icons do not hide and then show the windows again. It would be helpful if both these options could be available to the user as when the window is needed for pasting the user would be able to click on the required window menu bar icon and after using it could just click on the red close button.
Obviously the developer did not intend for the windows to be shown 24 hours a day :-)
I'm running the application on my Intel iMac OS 10.4.8 and I am finding it very useful. I have, however, found some problems with it.
I usually have a few pastes to perform at the same time, so I cannot use the
"ordinary mode" because, obviously, each time I paste an item I would have to
go back to the relevant pasteboard icon in the menu bar and click on it again for the window to reappear. I also cannot use the application in "autoshow window" as I have other application autoshow drawers around my screen. Therefore, the best way for me to use PTHPasteboard is in "always show window" mode. Using the application this way, however, causes a few problems:
1. After completing my paste actions it is impossible to close either the Main
or Custom windows by clicking on their red close buttons as they are disabled and their menu bar icons do not hide and then show the windows again. It would be helpful if both these options could be available to the user as when the window is needed for pasting the user would be able to click on the required window menu bar icon and after using it could just click on the red close button.
2. I have my Main window set to display 20 items. If I wish to paste a few
consecutive items which are numbered higher than 20, the scroll bar jumps up to the top after each paste. This is a bit of a pain because I need to scroll
down each time to search for the next item after each paste. Incidentally,
this does not happen in the Custom windows.
3. It would be useful if it were possible to move items (rather than copy) from one Custom window to another, e.g., by using a hotkey whilst dragging the item.
4. If I wish to change the order of items in a Custom window by dragging them, they are not moved but instead are copied to the target location.
If I use the application in "ordinary mode" and click on any of the pasteboards menu bar icons, all the windows are toggled instead of just the window relevant to that particular icon.
If the developer would fix these problems, then this application would be just perfect.
