About Collective
Meet Collective. Clipboard history for your Mac. Done right. Fully compatible with macOS Sierra (10.12), as well as OS X El Capitan (10.11) and Yosemite (10.10).
"Attractive, lightweight clipboard utility gets the details right." - Macworld, four "mice".
Nearly anything you can copy, Collective will remember: Text, images, PDFs, movies, URLs, appointments, files: Collective keeps track of whatever you copy.
With a simple key combination (Command-Shift-V) Collective appears, allowing you to add nearly anything you previously copied back to the clipboard to be pasted, exactly as you copied it.
Powerful. Precise. Attractive. Everything you expect from a Mac App. Chosen by Apple as "New & Noteworthy" on the Mac App Store.
"Apps We Actually Use ... a must-have for any Mac user looking for quick and easy access to their clipboard history." - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

How to Use Collective
When Collective is running, a "C" will appear in the top-right of your menu bar. Pressing Command-Shift-V will show Collectives history of what you have copied (alternatively, you can click the "C" in the menu bar). Clicking on any item will add it back to your clipboard, so you can paste it again.
Note that for security reasons Collective is not able to paste directly, but rather your selected item is added back to the clipboard for you to paste. Further, due to a limitation with internal clipboards, Collective can not keep a full history for Adobe products (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). Collective can, however, be used to paste into these applications.
