Clipboard only allowing one Paste in AirTable


Recommended Posts

MacOS Version: 14.0 (23A344)

Alfred Version: 5.1.3 [2175]

Chrome Version: 117.0.5938.149

 

This only seems to happen in AirTable. I have confirmed that it works in Google Sheets and Numbers. I've also tested in a few text editor apps and text fields online (including this box) and they paste without issue.

 

Unable to get screenshot as it's not doing anything to screenshot.

 

What happens:

  1. I copy multiple Part Numbers (text only) from a website.
  2. Switch to Airtable
  3. Bring up Clipboard History
  4. Select Item to Paste (Clicking OR using Shortcuts)
  5. It pastes into Field in Airtable
  6. Move down one field
  7. Bring up Clipboard History
  8. Select Item to paste (Clicking OR using Shortcuts)
  9. Nothing happens, no matter how many I select.
  10. Need to Restart EITHER Chrome or Alfred to get it to paste into AirTable again while continuing to work in other places.

 

No updates available for OS or any of the apps.

Welcome @MacDaddy,

 

The fact that the issue only happens on one specific website indicates that’s were you need to look. Have you tried it in Safari, for example, as it may be a combination of website and browser?

 

From your description, I presume you have Alfred Preferences → Features → Clipboard History → Advanced → Auto-paste on return selected. Have you tried simply doing ⌘V after selecting the new entry? Also, have you double-clicked the specific cell to edit? That seems to be how Airtable operates and I have no issues in either Safari or Brave doing it that way.
