Clipboard - can't find the history

[VictoriaJZ]

I have my SysPrefs set to enable Alfred access to everything = I have a power pack = but I copied something [I thought] to the Clipboard but went to find it and didn't find anything.  I assume/hope it's still there and that I couldn't figure out how to access it, but I did try.

Can you describe exactly what you did? Did you use the Viewer Hotkey (see Alfred Preferences → Features → Clipboard History)? Is it possible the app from which you copied is one excluded by Alfred Preferences → Features → Clipboard History under the Advanced tab?

Thank you == I did my Alfred Hotkey = then put in Clipboard [I'd never used it! and was thrilled] -- got the Show Clipboard Viewer and hit return = it says ALL Snippets and then it's all a blank area =-    BUT I think I have FINALLY figured it out == I didn't know really about this wonderful feature and had not checked the boxes on the History Feature page == my own fault!!!  I'll check them and hope that helps in the future == this is a feature I hadn't known of = so far am not a power user of Alfred [tho I do have my Powerpack] and will not set out to improve that situation = thanks.

I'm glad it's sorted. Don't hesitate to post again if you have more difficulties. Once you get used to everything you'll find the clipboard history invaluable.

And no doubt much more about Alfred!!  I certainly need to take time to learn all its features == Thanks
