@AXLr80r We're happy to help you but in order to do this, you'll need to provide more info. What are you typing into Alfred to search for this? Provide screenshots of your Default Results and File Search preferences I can see you've been Alfred for a number of years so were you previously able to find these files and the issue started recently? Which version of Alfred and macOS are you using? The more information you provide, the more likely we'll be able to help you out Cheers, Vero

As you can see from the results, there is no metadata for this file, as most of these fields should be populated. The first step would be to rebuild your Mac's metadata index, which you can do by going to Alfred's Advanced preferences by clicking "Rebuild macOS Metadata" and following the steps. This can take up to an hour to complete, but once it's done, dragging the same file should show some metadata. Please do this and let us know how you get on. Cheers, Vero

@KarenZ Reading through this thread, there's some conflicting information as to what is and isn't working (as you're referring to using Cmd + S in the Clipboard Viewer to save a clipboard item as a snippet, but also saying the Clipboard History isn't working) so could you please pop us an email on info@ with the following information: Screenshots of your Alfred Clipboard Viewer Step by step of what keywords or hotkeys you're using to try to use Clipboard History Step by step of how you're trying to use Snippets, including what keyword you're typing, which app you're trying to expand snippets in An export of the Snippets collection you're using in your example above (right-click the collection and choose Export) We'll then take it from there. Cheers, Vero

@kaneru Also, have you tried typing "reload" into Alfred first? This may clear any stale data from the application cache if the apps have already been removed. Cheers, Vero

@Ryan Lv Is this app overriding Ctrl + Cmd + Q? This is the key combo Alfred relies on for the Lock command, and it sounds like your IM client may be stealing it. Try disabling or changing the hotkey in the other application. Cheers, Vero

@rjsierra This particular hotkey combination is not a default Alfred combo, so you'll have set it in one of the following places: In a Workflow: You can view all your workflow hotkeys by clicking the cog in the workflows sidebar and choosing "Show hotkeys" In Features > File Search > Navigation In Features > File Search > Actions You can either change them or highlight them and press backspace to remove the hotkey combination altogether. Cheers, Vero

@helwaser If you're referring to the web-based importer by Daniel Diekmeier, it's still working fine: http://alfred.danieldiekmeier.de When posting in the future, please do not post all in capitals. It looks like you're shouting and comes across as rude. Writing normally is sufficient, and a community member will reply to you Cheers, Vero

@ssoriche It looks like you've enabled "Expand snippets mid-string" in Alfred's Features > Snippets > Auto Expansion Options, so disable this to avoid the mid-string expansions you're seeing: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/snippets/advanced/ I'm able to use 'd and 't as shortcuts and "I'd" doesn't trigger, as "Expand mid-string" is disabled. Cheers, Vero

@Joshua Nichols There are a few things that could be at play here, as Alfred should be as fast as ever. Did you just upgrade to or install Mojave? Is the CPU high while macOS does its first index? If so, that could be slowing your Mac down generally What's your hotkey? If you're trying to use Cmd + Space and also have the "Hold Cmd for Siri", it's likely slowing things down while macOS waits to work out if you want to call up Siri or not. Disable that feature if you're not using it. More details here: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/troubleshooting/cmd-space/#dont-show Those are the two most obvious things to check out. Cheers, Vero

@kagi First, it looks like you've enabled "Expand snippets mid-string" in Alfred's Features > Snippets > Auto Expansion Options, so disable this to avoid the mid-string expansions you're seeing: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/snippets/advanced/ Beyond this, I would encourage you to look at setting better keywords that aren't accidentally triggered. For example, you may want to set a collection-wide prefix: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/snippets/collections/#affix Cheers, Vero

@Mhagopian Welcome to the forum! Could you please specify exactly which Alfred build and macOS build you're using? I've tested this in Mojave - assuming you're on Mojave - and can't replicate the issue with any combination of fullscreen and non-full-screen apps. Cheers, Vero

@KarenZ You still haven't specified whether you're looking to use Clipboard History or Snippets; Could you please let me know which feature you're trying to use and what steps you've taken, as it'll make it easier for you and I to work out where the issue lies. A minor adjustment to my previous guidance; This referred to slightly older versions of Alfred. In more recent versions of Alfred, rather than the "Welcome to Alfred's Text Expansion!", Alfred as a whole will request permissions, so you would have originally seen this notice: Take a look at your System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility preferences, which should look like this including the checkbox next to Alfred 3. If the box is not yet checked, it means you didn't grant Alfred permissions earlier, so check the box now. Let me know how you get on. If you're still having issues, please provide details of exactly what you're doing step by step, and include the preferences above so that I can take a look Cheers, Vero

We're keeping an eye for any fixes here, but as of today, in macOS Mojave 10.14.4, Apple still haven't resolved this.

@KarenZ Sorry, I missed your second post! As I explained in my first reply, there is a difference between Clipboard History and Snippets. For Snippets, Alfred should request access when you set them up. Do you recall whether you followed the steps when "Welcome to Alfred's Text Expansion!" pops up and takes you to System Preferences to grant access? You can reset these permissions by opening Terminal and typing: tccutil reset AppleEvents This means that your apps request Automation permissions again, so follow the steps to set up Snippets again in Features > Snippets by unchecking and re-checking "Automatically expand snippets by keyword" (where you'll get the "Welcome to Alfred's Text Expansion!" message and will need to grant Automation rights to Alfred. For Clipboard History, check the Accessibility permissions and see whether you've granted Alfred permissions as outlined in my first reply. If the issue persists, type "clear" into Alfred and choose "Clear Clipboard History". Let me know how you get on. Cheers, Vero

@kagi I'm not sure I understand what you're saying? Do you just want k@ to be your keyword? If so, just create a snippet with that keyword If you want all your snippets within a collection to end with @, then you can set a suffix: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/snippets/collections/ If I've misunderstood your question, please give more details about what you're looking for and I'll be happy to help! Cheers, Vero

Hi @Jonah if you're on macOS Mojave, you'll need to ensure you give Alfred sufficient permissions to do this: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/getting-started/macos-mojave/#integration In particular, Terminal requires Automation permissions, so it's likely that you didn't give it permission when it originally requested it, so you can do it manually by following the link above. [Moving this into Discussion & Help for the benefit of other users having this issue] Cheers, Vero

@deanishe @fjuniorr Ello! By default, what's happening is that both words "stats" and "=todo" are being searched for in both fields; You don't get a result because both words aren't found in the title and both words aren't found in the content. Here's a workflow that allows you to search by entering part of the title, then some content to return results. Here's the download link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6yaqeg8koglpxae/Search File Name then Content.alfredworkflow?dl=0 Taking a look at this example, you would type the keyword "fname" followed by the file name, hit return then enter some of the content to see your results returned in-line. You'll notice the Metadata fields are empty in the file filter; The JSON object is used to dynamically set these based on your input from the first keyword. It's not possible to currently put variables into the File Filter's metadata fields, but that's something we're aware of and is on our list of considerations Let me know how you get on. Cheers, Vero

@kms There's a workflow here for Brave bookmarks, which you may want tot try: At this time, we are not planning on adding Brave browser support, as it isn't widely used, but we always keep an eye on stats and demand. Cheers, Vero

As of March 2019, this workflow still works as expected from El Capitan all the way to macOS Mojave. If you're having any issues with the workflow, please ensure that you check the debug log, and provide details of the errors so that we can help you further. Cheers, Vero

@grevesz There has been a subtle change since the earlier posts in this thread, and "Alfred 3" is what is being added to accessibility instead. Based on your screenshot, you're good to go! If you're having issues with Text Expansion, please provide more details and we'll be happy to help: - What version of macOS and Alfred are you using? - Are you setting up Text Expansion for the first time? Or did it stop working after you'd already used it? - How far through text expansion does it get, e.g. Does your snippet disappear when typed? Do you hear an error beep? Does it paste partially? - Please include screenshots of your Snippets prefs Cheers, Vero

@an_User To get started, you'd need to find out whether EasyFind has AppleScript support, and whether there's a way to pass the information from Alfred to it. If it's possible to communicate with EasyFind, then you can take it from there. Hopefully some fellow EasyFind users on the forum will be able to lend a hand. Cheers, Vero

@Alexander As with the user above, please download and install the Alfred metadata tool, drag the app in there and paste the results so that we can see what information macOS is providing about the app. I've deleted your second thread about this as it didn't add any useful additional information. You can keep your replies in this thread for ease of tracking responses. Cheers, Vero

@honkingmanuka As with other users earlier in the thread: Make sure you're using Evernote from Evernote.com not from the App Store Download the correct version of the workflow from the first post of this thread under "Download Evernote 9 beta 3" Provided you've followed these instructions, results should be returned in Evernote. If you use any other versions (wrong version of the workflow or App Store version of Evernote), the workflow won't be able to return results as they won't be in the correct location for it to access them. Please provide more details of the exact builds you're using for macOS, Evernote and Alfred if you're still having issues. Cheers, Vero

@mimez Please make sure that you update to Alfred 3.8 if you're using an older build. Take a look at this thread for details: Cheers, Vero

@Rafal Take a look at your workflows; Are you using an Emoji workflow by any chance? If so, take a look at this thread: https://www.alfredforum.com/topic/11957-alfred-pastes-the-same-snippet-multiple-times/?do=findComment&comment=63763 A few workflows were affected by a particular user-created framework; while Alfred intrinsically won't allow two instances to be launched from the Applications folder, these workflows forced a new instance to be created, resulting in quirky issues like the one you're seeing. Make sure you update the workflow(s) affected by it, of which there shouldn't be many. Cheers, Vero
