Remote Desktop for Mac clipboard syncing stopped working
Remote Desktop for Mac version 10.9.0 broke bidirectional clipboard syncing. copy/paste from local to remote works. but copy/paste from remote to local does not. previous version 10.8.x worked correctly. local machine is running macOS Big Sur 11.7.9, remote is Windows Server 2019.

10.9.3 doesn't fix it.

I have 10.9.2 and the clipboard works for a while then stops. I have to quit the app and it works again when I reopen it.

I went back to the 10.8.4 and got the copy and paste to work. This is a temporary fix I think but at least I can do what I need to do now.

I am having the exact same issue. I have tried downloading an older version of the remote desktop but it is not working. I need help

I have the same issue here. I tried killing the rdpclip.exe process as it is said here "https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/63728/cannot-share-clipboard-when-using-microsoft-remote-desktop-connection-to-windows"
and then restarting it, but it didn't work.
