    In the operating system Mac OS, the contents of the clipboard can be viewed by selecting the View Clipboard which is located in the Edit menu in the Finder. So that makes an easy way for you to view the text stored in the memory and you can simply from there delete it. For other work the shortcut is Command + C which is used to copy data to clipboard, Command + X to cut the data to the clipboard and Command + V to paste data from clipboard.

    When there is something in the clipboard, it is sometimes impossible to make a new copy paste. It can happen when you're in another program automatically, but if you want to copy something from internet. For this first you must empty what is in the clipboard. Here is a the trick to empty the clipboard. In Word press the right mouse and then click on clipboard. In the window that opens click on theEmpty clipboard.

    I you want a tool for that then you can use Clipboard manager for the same. The error is really annoying when you try to paste a previously copied content and you realize that it is lost of your clipboard is full. Clipboard Manager for Mac comes with lots of new advantages and with really less defects. I am in my Mac system using iClipboard suits which is much better one to use.

    The clipboard is actually a part of the Finder from the original Mac. It serves as a buffer for copy / paste items into the open documents. You can not empty the clipboard, it does not empty until you restart the machine. If you want to get rid of an annoying thing you judges who remained in the clipboard without rebooting the machine, copying a fragment of text at random. It will replace the previous contents of the clipboard.

    In Mac OS 9 and earlier, the contents of the clipboard is contained in the file the same name, located in the System Folder. For this we simply use the mouse and drag to the folder or the destination window. You can locate the clipboard from the finder and then clear up the settings. It is quiet easy to access the same and clear up the memory out of that. There are some clip manager tools for the same.

    For people using an emulator, it is possible that your emulator is trying to connect to the clipboard for Mac OS with the host OS. A very simple tool for the same is called as iClip. iClip is more than a simple and nice replacement for the clipboard. Using its multiple containers, all are visible at the same time and you can easily find what you need here. Iclip floats above other windows remain accessible at all times. In fact, you do not even need to leave your environment, taking his eyes off the application on which you can use to work for Iclip.
