Junk Yard · Sharing with your other devices

Where does something copied on my other device show up on my Mac?

Short answer: It lands as a new scrap in your Junk Yard, not on your clipboard, so nothing you copied gets replaced. Click the scrap to copy it, then paste with ⌘V.

It arrives as a new scrap in your Junk Yard — not on your clipboard. That's deliberate: nothing you've copied on this Mac gets quietly replaced. When you want it, click the scrap to copy it, then paste with ⌘V.

This only happens when Share my clipboard with … is switched on for that device and the two are connected through Bridge.
