Global Clipboard not working #459

Open panosru opened 5 years ago

OS Version: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
Mac model: Macbook Pro 6.1 (Mid 2010)
Used dongle: ASUS BT-400

Your Issue: I have enabled Hands Off, but when I copy something from another computer that is on the same network, the clipboard is not shared with my macbook and vice versa...

I'm having this issue too. I'm currently on 10.13.6 and using the ASUS BT-400. Have you found a fix? I'm really stumped here.

The ASUS BT-400 did not work for me, after many many hours of trying. I would up having to install a new internal Broadcom card on my cMP 4,1>5,1. Everything works now.

I also gave up on it... If anyone will be able to find a solution will be cool though, but so far what I did was getting the Unclutter app installed in both my Hackintosh and my Macbook Pro. Set the paths for the app in a Dropbox folder in both my machines and in that way I have shared "notes", like so:

And I'm accessing the files of the MacBook from my Hackintosh (and vice versa) via the usual Finder Network path :)

It works as a workaround, and actually it might be better like this because I only share what I need and I do not keep in sync my clipboard between two machines :)
