I just installed Omnifocus for my Mac and have followed the directions to enable clipping in various programs and the function is not engaged. I did refer to the video online and it seems pretty straight forward but no results. I tried it many times with no luck.Is there something I am missing? I did try to highlight something is safari and the window to save this text does not come up.

Hi.

I recently installed Omnifocus on my MacBook Pro under OS X Lion 10 7 4
and I had the same problem with the Clipping Service in Safari ( 5.1.7)…

After some trials, it seems now to be working.
I followed the following steps (some of them are maybe useless)

- define the new shortcut in Omnifocus preferences ( alt - command - O)
- quit Omnifocus
- quit safari after cleaning of the caches
- under system preferences / keyboard / shortcuts / services,
update of the Omnifocus line: I added the shortcut ( alt - command - O)
- restart Omnifocus

and now it works ! ;-)

Just something confusing:
under Omnifocus preferences, in Clippings tab, I don't see anymore my shortcut !

Thanks for posting this solution.

I've been having trouble with clipping for a while, but couldn't quite carve out enough free time to mess with it. Now - all fixed!
