  1. If you moved to an MBP with a smaller screen, naturally there is less space for the icons. The notch also takes up space in the menubar.
  2. Alfred does not show files and folders by default, like Spotlight does. Instead, press the Spacebar to trigger File Search, and then type the name of the file or folder.
  3. Unless you enabled it, Alfred doesn't show files in its default results. Use the 'open' keyword to find files, or press the Spacebar before typing the filename.
  4. You can type ?hotkeys to get a list of all hotkeys, and opening an item opens the Alfred Preferences page where you can change it. This is documented on https://www.alfredapp.com/help/getting-started/preferences-search/.
  5. So nothing happens when you search for something and immediately press Return? There's this option in Preferences > Appearance > Options: But as the description says, it's just visual. Pressing Return should open the top result regardless.
  6. Why not use the "lucky" keyword to go to the first Google result? Unfortunately Google puts a page in between, so you'll have to press Tab and Enter to go to the actual page. Or switch to DuckDuckGo and simply type "! your search query"
  7. The Mac App Store version is very outdated. Download Alfred 4 from https://www.alfredapp.com.
  8. @rehashed Have you tried typing only the first few characters of the application name and choosing the application you want? After a few times Alfred will put the application as the first result, and you will commit to muscle memory which characters to type. For example, for Slack you would type "sl" and press Enter.
  9. Given that /usr/bin/php was removed in macOS 12.0 and it's still in the dropdown, probably none until Alfred drops support for macOS versions that still ship those binaries.
  10. As mentioned in Andrew's second screenshot, Alfred always copies the selected text to the clipboard. I think even when you use the "Restore previous clipboard item" option, the selected text will still be in your clipboard history. The "Mark item as transient" option only makes it so the modified text doesn't show up in the clipboard history as well.
  11. Where is the download link?
  12. Are you sure that's how you searched for folders before? Alfred doesn't return files and folders by default, you have to press space bar and then type the folder name. If that did work before, maybe you don't have Folders checked under Default Results.
  13. Will there be an option at some point to have a different display text for custom web searches in the action panel, like the built-in web searches have? Alfred doesn't replace {query} in the action panel results, so it looks a bit silly
  14. It looks like you installed Alfred 1. Download Alfred 4 from https://www.alfredapp.com.
  15. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark 😉
  16. Yes, and remove your disk from the Privacy tab. Spotlight will probably have to reindex all your files again, which will temporarily cause high energy usage.
  17. Same, I bought my license in November 2011, right after I got my first MacBook. Upgraded to Mega Supporter in 2014.
  18. Alfred uses the Spotlight index to find your files, so I'm not sure why you would want to disable it.
  19. Change the dropdown at the bottom to "pre-releases".
  20. Alfred 1 is ancient, get version 4 from https://www.alfredapp.com.
  21. Fair enough, I don't really use clipboard history that much, it's just nice to have Thanks for the information!
  22. All my Clipboard History items are set to be removed after 24 hours. Yesterday I noticed I had plain text items from the past 2 months in my history. The old items disappeared after I restarted Alfred. Is this a bug, or has Alfred always worked this way? I would expect the old items to be deleted periodically. macOS Mojave 10.14.6 Alfred 4.0.9 1144
  23. Alfred 1 is very old, get Alfred 4 from https://www.alfredapp.com.
