according to some bug posts in the net, this seems to be a special Mac/Java problem, where there is no solution.
Nothing special with SikuliX.

The recommendation is, to catch the exception and try again or ignore.

so you might do this:

isUnavailable = "#UNAVAILABLE#"
try:
    text = App.getClipboard()
catch:
    text = isUnavailable
if text == isUnavailable:
    # do corrective actions

Title:
  [1.1.0] Mac: App.getClipboard(): java.io.IOException: system clipboard
  data unavailable --- should be handled internally

Status in Sikuli:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I am using Sikui 1.1.0 Build:2015-06-24_01:00nightly on a MAC OS X
  10.7.5.

  My application clicks in a text region, selects it and copies it to
  the clipboard before processing this text further. My application can
  run and do this hundreds of times successfully and then suddenly I get
  the following error:-

  [log] CLICK on L(718,1044)@S(0)[0,0 1920x1200]

  [log] ( ? ) TYPE "a"

  [log] ( ? ) TYPE "c"

  Looking through past faults there seems to be some references to this.
  Is there still a known fault? Is there a work around?  What is
  happening? Can some other resource be grabbing the clipboard? Perhaps
  if I knew what I could disable it.

  All help/suggestions welcome

  Jonathan.
