Common things
- Nothing pastesPastry needs Accessibility permission to paste for you. Look in System Settings › Privacy & Security › Accessibility and make sure Pastry is listed and ticked. Without it the clipping still goes onto your clipboard — press ⌘V yourself.
- The hotkey does nothingAnother app may have claimed it. macOS does not report hotkey conflicts, so both apps can hold the same combination and both react. Change Pastry's in Settings › Hotkeys.
- Where did it go?Pastry has no Dock icon — it lives in the menu bar as a pair of scissors. If your menu bar is full, it may be hidden behind the overflow chevron.
- How do I quit it?Quit Pastry, in its menu. ⌘Q while the menu is open.
- Where is my history kept?In Application Support, in a directory only you can read. Clear All empties it immediately.
Requirements
macOS 26 or later, Apple silicon or Intel. Pastry is signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens without a Gatekeeper warning.
