I think the ones failing for you are the ones with thumbnail images. So, please make sure you have the required folders: ~/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-3/ ~/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-3/Workflow Data/ See earlier messages for more about this. It's always good to read the thread

How long are you waiting? Queries take 5 to 15 seconds for me. I've just re-uploaded the version I have here, just in case. If it's not working after re-downloading one more time, then we'll have to debug: view the workflow in Alfred click the bug icon pop up alfred bar and do a query, eg. song hyperballad copy the debug output from main Alfred window to a pastebin/gist paste a link to it here I see this output: https://pastebin.com/raw/yAzL8WRb

That's not my file, that's a modification by somebody else. My original files are here: https://www.gingerbeardman.com/alfred/ I just fixed it before my last message. Also, make sure you search for reasonable terms: song taylor, generates an error somewhere at Apple for whatever reason (invalid resulting data?) song shake it off, returns good results song taylor shake, also good

There was a problem with song, please re-download my 2.1 to fix that. All now work for me.

This issue was resolved by removing some of the URL query parameters, see workflow thread.

Ah, I see @Macchio has already fixed this issue by removing some params from the query. My hosted copy also updated to v2.1 https://www.gingerbeardman.com/alfred/ Cheers!

Very odd, thanks for looking. I've had to stop using this workflow until I can find time to investigate if there's a workaround.

Album search has stopped working for me, not sure why and sadly don't have time to investigate.

As a workaround I can temporarily change the scaling on my monitor. But I need sharp retina @2x for my work, other scaling factors aren't desirable. If your Dell monitor was Retina that would be an ideal resolution. A resizable preference window would be the ideal solution, then users can make the window bigger (to accommodate more complex workflows) or smaller according to their needs/display. I used to fullscreen the app in Alfred 3 days. Woah, I just found a workaround! If I option-click the green maximise button the window width will decrease past the normal minimum to fit my display. Hurrah! A few elements extend off the screen on a couple of tabs, but it's totally workable for me. Please don't change this functionality, if you deem this a bug, LOL 🙏

What display do you use in portrait @Vero? Maybe I can upgrade...

Of course, I use a DELL P2415Q Display, that's 24" with a native resolution of (3840 x 2160). Portrait running at retina resolution (1080 x 1920) That's not scaled or zoomed, just standard plug and play "default for display". This is my main display (I'm a programmer and prefer long windows) I have not found any other apps that do not fit this width, let me know if you want me to test any in particular. As mentioned earlier in this thread, the UI in all previous versions of Alfred was so much more compact than V4. I'm aware that eventually there will be Alfred V5, which I hope returns to a more accessible - maybe even resizable? - window width. Thanks for your consideration edit: added screenshot

Thanks, glad this is still on the radar. it's an annoyance every time I go into Alfred Prefs. Even on my new 24" 4K display (running in portrait)

Interesting. Thanks! I'd did some manual API queries through my browser and they worked fine. I didn't spot any redirection. What redirects are you seeing?

No worries. I don't use it in my workflow but that app still works just fine.

Any ideas why the URL call from Python is failing?

Seriously? I take offence at the viewpoint that if something hasn't been updated recently it must be bad/broken/untrustworthy. You may not be talking about my workflow, but: My workflow was created in 2019 It does not use a scripting addition It still works without issue (for me; I use it daily) and that's why it has not been updated It just automates user interactions, so there is no inherent unsafeness about it And it's very fast, not slow at all HTH

"I'll donate if you put yourself through a world of pain" that's not how this donation thing works. It should be "here's some money to try to persuade you to solve my problem". IMHO I use album search every day, works for me. See my note about missing directories, and the quote below. As I mentioned in my previous post!

A workaround would be to Open in Terminal, then do a quick command atom . to open the workflow folder in your editor. Or opening in Finder and then, maybe, clicking a toolbar icon to open that folder in your editor. But I like your idea of allowing a user-configurable external editor.

Thanks anyway! The old Alfred window was so much more compact, right? Anyway, I upgraded to a new 24" 4K portrait display which is 1080 wide. Close, but not quite enough!

I love this function so much I wanted it everywhere and I eventually found this app (not created by me!) https://defaultbrowser.app you can set valid browsers, and a default, and any link opened will do so in your most recently active browser with your default as fallback.

I use a 20" monitor in portrait mode, 1050 x 1680. Apple Cinema Display The Alfred window is 1180 so does not fit. I don't mind things getting a little more compress if I was able to resize the window to a narrower width. Is it possible the minimum window width can be decreased? Thanks! ps: I tried changing window placement in plist, but Alfred resets it on launch.

Thanks so much!

That's fine by me. Thanks for your help! Default browser always: Safari Browsers I mostly use: Safari Safari Technology Preview other browsers i have on my system: Chrome Opera

Well, in that case it's not working for me as expected. If a browser is frontmost it opens the URL in that browser. Great! But if another app is front most, then the URL is not opened in any browser at all.

What happens if the web browser is not frontmost?
