If the first capture does not behave as expected
Most setup issues come from macOS permissions, protected content, or display arrangement.
Permission not showing
Quit and reopen ShutterDock, then check System Settings > Privacy & Security > Screen & System Audio Recording.
Clipboard did not update
Try another capture after confirming ShutterDock is still running in the menu bar and has screen recording permission.
Black screenshot from protected content
Some protected video, banking, or DRM surfaces can intentionally block screenshot capture at the system level.
External display issue
Reconnect the display, confirm macOS display arrangement, and try a smaller region capture on the affected screen.
