Q&A - Answers to common press questions.
Q: How much does ClipMate cost?
A: ClipMate sells for $34.95 for an "unlock code", delivered
electronically. Users can also purchase a CD for an additional $9.95,
which includes free shipping. Since everything is downloadable,
the $34.95 option is the most popular. A single-user license allows
a single user to run ClipMate on one or two computers. If they
need to add users, multi-user discounts are available. Also, for
households with lots of computers, we offer a
"whole house" 5-pack for $79.95.
Q: What is the limit on how many items ClipMate can hold?
A: ClipMate can store hundreds, or even thousands of items.
(We've tested with over 30,000 items). Data is written to disk
immediately after being captured, so there is no "save" operation.
We find that most users keep around 300 items in ClipMate.
Q: Is there a manual included?
A: Not any more. But there is a downloadable/printable
PDF file. .
Q: How long have you been selling ClipMate?
A: ClipMate was first uploaded to CompuServe in December 1991.
Since then, it has gone through five major revisions, and has
supported all major Windows platforms (Windows 3.0, Windows 3.1/WfW,
Windows95, Windows98, WindowsME, Windows NT, 2000, and XP). There
are no plans for Mac, OS/2, BE, or Unix.
Q: Is ClipMate available in the retail channel?
A: No. Most of our sales are direct.
Q: What does ClipMate Do?
A: ClipMate is a clipboard extender that "remembers" everything
that you copy to the Clipboard. By selecting an item within ClipMate's
history, it is placed back onto the internal Windows clipboard, ready
for pasting into any application.
Please take our tutorial!
and better yet, watch some of the online demos.
Q: Does ClipMate use Adware/Spyware?
A: No. ClipMate is pure Shareware. Try before you
buy, 30-day evaluation, no "phone home" activation, and the program
does not send data back to us.
ClipMate
7.5 features both 32-bit and 64-bit ClipBar support in both Windows7
and Windows8 (and Windows 10!). It is a free update to all ClipMate v7 users.
Just install over your current 7.3, and you'll upgrade it
"in-place".
Users
of the WebRoot firewall will need to make an adjustment to the
WebRoot settings in order to allow ClipMate to capture clipboard
data from web browsers. Otherwise WebRoot will BLOCK such access! It
may also be causing WHITE SCREEN CAPTURES as it may be blocking the
PrintScreen key.
