This has now been improved in 2.0.4 which is in pre-release, if you want to update to test and report back You'll need to uncheck the "include podcasts" checkbox in the preferences, and reindex your music library (Cmd + R when showing the Mini Player).

Hi guys - a quick update to let you know this has been improved in v2.0.4 which has just gone to pre-release. I'd be grateful if you could update and have a play

Hi there, could you please fill in your Powerpack email address in your profile details before asking for Powerpack-related support? It's only visible to you and to me (as administrator) but allows us to confirm you're indeed a Powerpack user. Thanks Vero

Alfred has never shown the contents of playlists in the Mini Player. You can select a playlist and start playing it but, due to the iTunes limitations, it's not possible to browse within playlists.

For a simple percentage, you can just do 298*0.05 to get the 5% figure you want. Also, why not create a workflow for fancier calculations like VAT, tips or those other awkward calculations? If you're not sure how, ask the question in the workflows help & questions forum. Granted you can also do it as 395*1.2, but I'd welcome a mindless VAT calculator too

Just a reminder that if you're looking for help in creating workflows, please post this in the correct forum as this isn't an Alfred feature suggestion, but rather something that can be (most likely) done with a custom workflow. I've now moved this thread to "Workflow help & questions".

This combination is exactly the same on a UK keyboard, which Andrew uses everyday to develop Alfred Alfred registers the actual keys you're pressing so if you're pressing down the Shift key and a number key, Alfred will register this as the shift + number key combo. In the case of shift + 4, this is $. Setting a combo to shift + a number and expecting the number is an impossibility as OS X and Alfred will always recognise the modified key instead (e.g. the $ sign, not the number 4). If you want to use a combination with numbers, you'll need to use cmd/opt/ctrl modifiers instead of the shift key.

I'll move this to the Workflow help & questions, as it isn't an Alfred feature request as such and you may find someone there who can help you create a workflow.

Have you rebuilt your OS X metadata (there is a shortcut in Alfred's Advanced preferences "Rebuild OS X metadata")? Both versions of Alfred, as well as Spotlight, have their own temporary cache, so what you may be seeing in Spotlight and v1 is the cache, while v2 may be showing the real index (where Terminal is missing). I would recommend rebuilding your metadata (which can take up to an hour) and typing "reload" into Alfred v2 once it has completed to refresh v2's index. Let me know how you get on

This is a consequence of keyword latching, but won't affect your ability to search with YouTube. Simply keep typing "youtube keyword" to filter your query to YouTube. You can also change your keyword for YouTube to "yt" so that you can even more quickly type "yt keyword" to find what you want! I'll move this to the Discussions forum and out of Bugs.

If you launch Console.app and keep an eye on any error messages when you type the command, you might discover the cause. Post what Console tells you and we'll have a look Cheers, Vero

While Vitor's solution can work in some cases, the more reliable way is to add the path of the apps you want to include into the Search Scope box in the Default Results preferences.

Hi Anna, Well spotted - this should actually be possible in v2 as well so I've added a ticket in for Andrew to look at adding this back in soon! Cheers, Vero

Ensure you have "random" switched off in iTunes, and set Alfred's iTunes Mini Player preferences (under Features > iTunes > Advanced) to use the Alfred playlist to ensure predictability. If this doesn't work, check that Alfred is looking at the correct music library. Then launch the Mini Player and press Cmd + R to refresh your music library in Alfred. Let me know how you get on

This could've happened in one of two ways: 1. Check Alfred's Appearance options and whether you've checked "hide result shortcuts" 2. Revert to one of the default themes, you may have imported a theme where the creator made the shortcuts transparent so that they seem invisible on their theme Cheers, Vero

In order to use the Workflows feature, you'll need the Powerpack. You can see more info and buy the Powerpack on our website: http://alfredapp.com/powerpack You'll then be able to use the workflows, which include hotkeys

Hi guys and gals! It's been so much fun watching you all create workflows and make them part of your daily habits. I'd love to feature some of the most useful or unusual uses for workflows on the blog. I've heard of one person who controlled their house lights with Alfred and others who created tools for their whole team. Bonus points for quirky and fun uses! If you'd like to take part, please reply here and tell me briefly how you're using workflows. Ensure you've filled in your Powerpack email address in your forum profile and I'll contact a few for mini interviews (by email) over the coming weeks. I'll then feature these on the Alfred blog Cheers, Vero

There is no sorting as such as the workflow returns them in the order OS X feeds them back, but you can have a play with date ranges You can create additional keywords and go to the file filter's advanced tab, where you can add a date range, e.g. one for today's mail, one for mail within the past 30 days.
