This page hosts two styles of server for the iPhone PasteCatcher application. The original server was written for use at the Macintosh Unix command line and is meant for advanced users. A standalone desktop application allows you to use the same server from a standard Macintosh application.
The pbserver command line utility works with the iPhone catching client. To use this server, run it from the Macintosh command line (via /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app). It runs until you quit with ^C
When you are ready to send data, copy text or images into the Mac's pasteboard (Command-C). Then run the client application (PasteCatcher.app) on the iPhone. Once the application receives the data, press the Home button and navigate to whichever application you need to use. Use the built-in iPhone paste support to paste that data into (for example) the Notes app, into Safari, into Mail, and so forth.
How to download pbserver
The server is called pbserver. It is located right below. In Safari, Control-click or Right-click the pbserver item. Choose Download Linked File As..., navigate to where you want to save the file, and click Save. Once downloaded to your Mac, use chmod 755 (at the Temrinal command line) to make it executable.
To simplify usage for those unfamiliar or uncomfortable with the Mac OS X command line, I have created a Desktop Application version of the pasteboard server. Its features are identical to the command line version. The name of the application version is PasteServer. To run this version, download the zip archive, unzip it, and place it into your /Applications folder. Run it by double-clicking the application icon.
Start the server by clicking the "Start Pasteboard Server". Once the server is active, copy text and image items into the Mac pasteboard (Command-C). Then run the client application (PasteCatcher.app) on the iPhone. Once the application receives the data, press the Home button and navigate to whichever application you need to use. Use the built-in iPhone paste support to paste that data into (for example) the Notes app (use it with lists and other text copied from the Mac), into Safari (handy for pasting URLs), into Mail (works great with pictures copied from Preview), and so forth.
