  1. @rob213 As a further tip to @deanishe suggesting taking a look at the Workflow objects available, I wanted to point out that each object, and each Alfred feature has a question mark icon next to it in the preferences. Click this icon to be taken to the relevant documentation for that object. You'll then be able to learn what each object does, how it interacts with others, etc, which should answer many of your questions Cheers, Vero
  2. @jerik Welcome to the forum Could you please fill in your Powerpack email address in your forum profile before asking Powerpack-specific questions? Once you've confirmed your details, we'll be happy to help! Cheers, Vero
  3. @ChocolateMilk Welcome to the forum Provided these Macs are for your own use and not shared workstations, that's absolutely fine! Cheers, Vero
  4. @rob213 That's still a browser though, not an app that could allow AppleScript support, etc... Might want to take a look at the existing translation workflows, including one for dict.cc - they're not that recent, so might need to some adjustments, but would be a better starting point. And for DeepL, which I'm not familiar with personally but many people seem to really like: https://github.com/m9dfukc/deepl-alfred-workflow Cheers, Vero
  5. @rob213 If you share what translation app you're referring to, fellow users who know the app might be able to tell you whether there's a way to do it Cheers, Vero
  6. @rob213 This should work, so it would be useful to look at how you've set up the workflow. I've created quite a few dynamic file search workflows over the years, so could you share the specific one you're using? Cheers, Vero
  7. @ficus_89 If you pop open Alfred's preferences to Features > Snippets, do you see a red notice telling you that secure entry is locked during that time? It would look something like this (but with 1PW as the app preventing text expansion): Note that it can take a few seconds for this message to appear in Alfred once you go into a secure field. This is an intentional action from 1Password, as it aims to keep your data secure by not allowing third-party apps to read your keystrokes while in 1Password. This is sensible as you could be copying or creating passwords that you don't want seen by apps that save things as plain text. Cheers, Vero
  8. @dncrews Did your IT people take a backup on BoxSync before migrating everyone's data? That would be your best starting point...
  9. @Avery Welcome to the forum Please go to Alfred's preferences > Help > Troubleshooting and run the File Search Troubleshooting, and drag in some of the files you can't locate. This will give you more information on whether the metadata for these files is complete, and if they're correctly included in Alfred's index. Please provide some of the outputs so that we can help you further. Cheers, Vero
  10. @John Studdard Welcome to the forum For fear of stating the obvious, please ensure you're using the latest Alfred 4 update (4.1 as of right now), and try what's been described above. You'll then be able to establish whether the issue you're getting is the same, where Catalina miscalculates the screen dimensions and shows Alfred off-screen, or something else. Let us know how you get on. Cheers, Vero
  11. @rascalroots Thanks for filling in your Powerpack details. Could you please provide more information? - Which version of Alfred are you using? - Which version of macOS? - Have you tried re-downloading the workflow in case your download was corrupted the first time? I've imported this workflow into Alfred 4 with no error message, so please provide more details as to your specific scenario Cheers, Vero
  12. @pubay Welcome to the forum When you say the integration "isn't working at all", could you please provide more details? - Have you followed the setup steps here? https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/1password/ - Are you seeing any bookmarks in Alfred's Features > 1Password preferences? - If so, are you seeing any results when typing your keyword set in the preferences above? (Or no keyword, just the name of the bookmark, if you've set that option in the preferences) - Which version of Alfred, macOS and 1PW are you using? The more information you can provide, the more easily we'll be able to help you work out what might be missing in your setup Cheers, Vero
  13. @Chris Alvin Welcome to the forum. If you're using Alfred 4.1, go to Alfred's preferences > Help > Troubleshooting and run the File Search Troubleshooting, dragging in some of the files you can't locate. This will give you more information on whether the metadata for these files is complete, and if they're correctly included in Alfred's index. Share some of the results from the apps that aren't found and we'll take a look. Cheers, Vero
  14. @rascalroots Could you please fill in your Powerpack email address in your forum profile before asking for help with Powerpack-specific features? Also, could you please let us know which version of Alfred and macOS you're using? Cheers, Vero
  15. @JackH This has been part of Alfred since the beginning of times You can enable it in Advanced > History > check both "Store Typed Query" and "Show latest query if within 5 minutes" https://www.alfredapp.com/blog/tips-and-tricks/quick-tip-view-your-recent-query-history/ Cheers, Vero
  16. If you'd rather use a single keyword to pop up a list, create a List Filter workflow instead: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/inputs/list-filter/ Connect it to an Open URL action and you'll be sorted
  17. @rob213 Sounds like you just want a custom search to open the site's URL? Here's how you can create your own custom searches: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/web-search/custom-searches/ Cheers, Vero
  18. @sound_planet Welcome to the forum. This is usually due to issues with the underlying metadata Alfred relies on to return results. If you're using Alfred 4.1, go to Alfred's preferences > Help > Troubleshooting and run the File Search Troubleshooting, dragging in some of the files you can't locate. This will give you more information on whether the metadata for these files is complete, and if they're correctly included in Alfred's index. If the Metadata doesn't show a green tick, you may need to rebuild your Mac's index, which you can do from Alfred's Advanced preferences > Rebuild macOS Metadata. Please provide more details about what the File Search Troubleshooter is showing if you're unable to resolve your issue. Cheers, Vero
  19. @bbq Welcome to the forum You're looking for the "spell" keyword to spellcheck words, e.g. "spell uneceseary", which will suggest the correct spelling. Cheers, Vero
  20. @SanityFox When using a macOS beta, please make sure that you check the other threads in the bugs forum to see if the issue was already covered. In this case, another user has already raised this and established that it's due to the hotkey combo being in use by macOS: Cheers, Vero
  21. @PizzaGuyRidesAtDawn Yup - You can do this in Alfred 4. https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/advanced/placeholders/#random You can also apply randomness in your workflows: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/utilities/random/ Cheers, Vero
  22. @marino If you believe the developer might be receptive to input, go ahead, but it's not possible for me to say how the developer of an app you still haven't named will respond. Cheers, Vero
  23. @mikedvzo This is essentially a bug in macOS where the icons are missing, but being reported to Alfred as normal when he tries to load them. As such, the blank backup icon is what is shown. This has been reported to Apple by numerous users over the years, and a couple of icons are missing in Mojave and Catalina. Most recently in Big Sur, only the Bluetooth icon seems to be missing. This may be resolved before the general release of Big Sur. We'll keep an eye on it Cheers, Vero
  24. @joshsmith01 Once you've copied something to Clipboard History Viewer, press Cmd + S to save it as a snippet. That's the most straightforward way to create a snippet While in the Clipboard History Viewer, if you use Cmd + S on an existing saved snippet, it'll pop it up for you to edit. You can also type "?snip" to launch the preferences to the Snippets prefs if you'd rather see your collections to create a new snippet from scratch. Cheers, Vero
  25. @marino Could you please try pasting into TextEdit instead, both as plain text and rich text? What behaviour to do you see there? I don't recognise the app you're using, but it's not uncommon for Rich Text editors to manipulate text as you're pasting it. You may find that your editor is adjusting your content to how it thinks it should be laid out. Cheers, Vero
