This may not be a Clips issue, but for some reason Clips s the only app that I use which repeatedly asks to enable incoming connections via firewall settings. I have firewall set to allow specific services and I have repeatedly authorized Clips and ClipsHelper but when restarting or resuming from sleep I am required to allow each time. The entries for ClipsHelper and Clips are visible in the firewall settings and are set to allow. Is there anything I can do to prevent the repeated prompts to enable the connections?

MemberI'm experiencing this problem too, even though clips/clipshelper are in the firewall settings.

Co-founder & DeveloperClips and ClipsHelper talk to one another using random ports. Please check if the firewall you're using allows for applications to be authorized regardless of the ports they use, and not just authorize a (application, port) pair. Firewalls such as LittleSnitch will ask you exactly what it is you want to authorize.
