| Mac OS X Text Clipping Format | Apple | Text Files |
The .TEXTCLIPPING file extension is a scrap file generated by the Finder application in Mac OS X. It is a special kind of text-based file used to store content on the computer's clipboard. The file can contain either a single line of text or multiple lines of text. This type of file typically appears on the Mac's desktop after a user drags data to it.
Structure
The structure of professional-quality .TEXTCLIPPING files can differ depending on the data that was previously stored on the clipboard. When analyzing a.TEXTCLIPPING file, one can expect to find basic components like UTF-8 text encoding, various types of information (images, strings and rectangles) as well as collections of key-value pairs.
Related File Extensions
Other clipboard data can be saved in more universally recognized formats such as .HTML, .RTF, .JPEG, .PNG and PDF. TEXTCLIPPING files are most often used in combination with clipboard-specific apps, such as ClipMenu and ClipX.
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .TEXTCLIPPING) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .TEXTCLIPPING extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .TEXTCLIPPING file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .TEXTCLIPPING extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .TEXTCLIPPING extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .TEXTCLIPPING file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .TEXTCLIPPING file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .TEXTCLIPPING file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .TEXTCLIPPING file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .TEXTCLIPPING file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
