Clipboard History Search Text Entry Slow


Recommended Posts

Hi:

 

When I use the clipboard history and start typing, it goes very slowly. One.Character.At.A.Time. i switched themes to no blur, as suggested elsewhere for a similar problem, but the issue persists. The regular Alfred search works perfectly. 

 

Can you give me any suggestions? Thank you very much.

@buckreynolds this could be an indication of a corrupt clipboard database, or the clipboard database on a slow access drive.

  • Is there anything unusual about your Home folder / Application Support folder? (i.e. stored on a network or external device?).
  • When was the last time you restarted your Mac? Alfred attempts to clean the clipboard database when launching.
  • One option could be to set your clipboard history to a shorter period (e.g. 1 month), as if for some reason access is slow, a smaller db will make it faster. Note that you can speed up Alfred's trimming of the db after making this change by restarting Alfred.

Cheers,

Andrew
