Andrew got a reaction from Subject22 in Displays preference pane no longer searchable
I've added a task ticket to investigate this further in the future... I may raise a bug with Apple so that Alfred doesn't have to put in a workaround for the missing icon.

Andrew got a reaction from tbergeron in Clipboard History not working anymore
The clipboard history should be working fine in Mavericks. There may be a permissions issue preventing Alfred from writing to the clipboard database. Quit Alfred and delete the following file in your home folder:
~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Databases/clipboard.alfdb
When you restart Alfred, this file should be recreated and things should work again

Andrew got a reaction from jroubieu in Accent matching search
Alfred v2 switched to using OS X's contacts API which seemingly doesn't support diacritic insensitive searching. I'm currently looking into the options, but this will pretty much be sorted at some point.
As a work around for now, Alfred also searches the phonetic fields and nickname, so you could put in the non accented names in one of those fields.

Andrew got a reaction from kozikow in Keys remapped via keyremap4macbook doesn't work
For your initial issue, one thing which could help is turning off ctrl to bring up the actions panel in Alfred's Features > File Search > Navigation.
As for remapping enter in a certain scenario, I'm not sure how this will work with Alfred as he treats your keypresses instantly and verbosely i.e. if you press enter, he will have already dealt with this before you press a second key so he will be treating it as (your remapped) ctrl key. Alfred works on key down instead of key up for perceptual performance, so I'm not sure your remapping of enter -> ctrl will ever be compatible with Alfred.

Andrew got a reaction from kevanp in Not able to disable Clipboard History
I'm unable to reproduce this behaviour - try re-enabling and re-disabling the clipboard history. You may also be seeing a permissions or syncing error which is preventing Alfred from persisting the state of the history, so try disabling the clipboard history and restarting Alfred, then seeing if the clipboard history is still disabled in the preferences.
Cheers,
Andrew

Andrew got a reaction from PSiCKo in Spell and define does not work on OSX 10.9
There is a little issue preventing this from working fully in non EN locales… I'll have this fixed in the next release.

Andrew got a reaction from 3point in quicklook in recent documents
I'm moving this to the Feature Suggestions sub-forum. I actually already have a ticket to look into adding this feature too

Andrew got a reaction from tankard in Support `public.symlink` for application results and launching
If you just add /usr/local/Cellar/ to Alfred's search path, then this is recursive.
Alfred doesn't support public.symlink as OS X's metadata server has very limited support for this, making searches very inefficient. If Alfred ever takes on the job of indexing himself, then I'll take into account symlinks.

Andrew got a reaction from erictsatt in Changing keyword for given web searches and move a web search above the first search option
You can change the keyword by double clicking on the word 'bing' in Alfred's Features > Web Search preferences. To change the default fallbacks, you'll need the Powerpack, then you can change the fallbacks to web searches, custom searches or even workflows

Andrew got a reaction from lmaoxlong in Alfred "forgets" Sound preference pane
Could you check that /System/Library/PreferencePanes/ is Alfred's default search scope.

Andrew got a reaction from kanaverum in Not showing some contacts yet in Spotlight
Contacts are loaded directly from OS X's contacts API so you'll want to re-tick Contacts in the "Don't show" section under file search, as this relates to contact metadata.
With Contacts ticked in Aflred's Default Results, are any contacts showing at all? If not, you may want to check if Alfred has access to the contacts in OS X's Securty & Privacy > Privacy > Contact preferences.
Cheers,
Andrew

Andrew reacted to nitingoyal in Add support for mailmate email client
Benny from MailMate made the script for me. Works as expected.
Path of the file should be "~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Plugins/Email/MailMate.applescript"
Here is the script:
-- Send an email with an attachment on url_encode(theText) return do shell script "printf " & quoted form of theText & " | xxd -u -plain | sed 's/\\(..\\)/%\\1/g' | tr -d '\\n'" end url_encode on create_mailto(_subject, _body, _attachments, _email, _name) set _to to _email if (_name is not "") then set _to to _name & " <" & _email & ">" end if set _mailto to "mailto:?to=" & url_encode(_to) & "&subject=" & url_encode(_subject) & "&body=" & url_encode(_body) repeat with _attachment in _attachments set _filePath to POSIX path of _attachment set _mailto to _mailto & "&attachment-url=file://" & url_encode(_filePath) end repeat return _mailto end create_mailto on send_email_with_attachment(ename, eemail, esubject, ebody, eattachment) set _mailto to create_mailto(esubject, ebody, eattachment, eemail, ename) tell application "MailMate" open location _mailto with trust activate end tell end send_email_with_attachment or you can download the file from here.

Andrew got a reaction from smoqu in 1Password 4 and Alfred 1Click Bookmarks Icon
If you would like to help test the first iteration of the official 1Password 4 integration, you can grab an early 2.0.8 build directly here:
http://cachefly.alfredapp.com/Alfred_2.0.8_210.zip
This isn't available as an auto update yet, but should be perfectly stable, so unzip and overwrite Alfred 2 in your Applications folder.
Let me know how you all get on

Andrew got a reaction from smoqu in 1Password 4 and Alfred 1Click Bookmarks Icon
Yep indeed! We've been chatting to 1Password for a while now... this is super exciting. I'll have the integration sorted soon now

Andrew got a reaction from xilopaint in 1Password 4 with iCloud sync Alfred integration
I have this integration code complete, but I'm waiting for some final things from 1Password before releasing it

Andrew got a reaction from lentil in Can you disable update pop-up?
You can turn off auto-update checking at the bottom of Alfred's Update prefs. I aim to make this update less intrusive in 2.1

Andrew got a reaction from Tyler Eich in Add support for mailmate email client
Just to update this thread, I'm adding the ability to add custom AppleScript for open ended email support in the next release of Alfred. This means that users will be able to add support for additional mail clients which Alfred doesn't support by default

Andrew got a reaction from DJay in 1Password 4 and Alfred 1Click Bookmarks Icon
Just to let you know, I'm keeping a close eye on this situation as I'd love for Alfred to work seamlessly with 1Pwd v4 once it's generally released
-
Andrew got a reaction from renatomoitinhodias in Crash when opening Preferences
This looks like a corruption in the download or unzip. If you could download again and if you used a 3rd party tool to unzip, just unzip normally.
Cheers,

Andrew got a reaction from Tyler Eich in Feature Request: Clone workflow
To start with, I want to add duplicate at the workflow level, but eventually, I want to make it significantly easier to play around with workflow objects themselves (i.e. copy / paste / duplicate within a workflow).

Andrew got a reaction from Tyler Eich in File Filter 'Advanced' tab glitches [Fixed v2.0.6 b203]
I can reproduce this, interesting... I'll take a look for the next release

Andrew got a reaction from jgarza9788 in Web-Search dosen't update
Hey there,
Disabling the web searches here is different to configuring your fallback searches. To setup what you see as default fallback in Alfred, click the "Setup fallback results" at the bottom of the Features > Default Result prefs
Cheers,

Andrew got a reaction from altryne in Typeface options
Don't worry chaps, I'm already aware that people would love to use bespoke fonts and I'll very likely look into this during a v2.x... I could just make exporting / importing more aware of this

Andrew got a reaction from flake in Custom Search add/edit not working [Fixed in 2.0.5 pre-release]
Quick update, I have this identified and fixed but it appears that Apple's certificate server for signing a build is down, so I can't release this to you. Will keep trying, then you'll have the fix
