Anyone able to advise / help?

Hi Deanishe,

I am a little confused on where / how to force Alfred wf to look at a specific document.

Can you advise?

I have created a new wf via ISYN: New.......

Thanks,

* I also have another request -when typing the kb shortcut, if I add an argument (i.e. tftp run) it creates the file name run....much more complicated as it will need to edit the terminal commands that are pre-defined.

Hello,
 
I am attempting to create a workflow that allows me to turn on the built in TFTP server in Mac OS, followed (or before) opening a particular finder window and the creating of a file.
 
The commands need to be;
 
To launch the daemon run the following commands:
sudo launchctl load -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/tftp.plist
sudo launchctl start com.apple.tftpd
Be sure Read/Write/eXecute permissions are set on the tftpboot folder and any files you wish to transfer:
sudo chmod 777 /private/tftpboot
sudo chmod 777 /private/tftpboot/*
If you’ll be transferring a file TO your TFTP server, the file will technically need to exist on the server beforehand so create it with touch. For example:
sudo touch /private/tftpboot/running-config
sudo chmod 777 /private/tftpboot/running-config
 
I have created (along with the help of a friend) the following workflow. What I would like to do;
1. Is create it so it opens up the finder location first (I can then visibly see the file being created because atm I pre-open the finder window manually). I cannot get this piece to work.
2. Include all of the terminal commands into just on window, with a "sleep x" in between the command lines, and then it auto close that window (I found this, its a preference in terminal rather than a cmd).
3. Close terminal totally. i.e. The entire program.
 
I can share the created workflow, but you will need to replace the "1" in the commands with your Mac PW. Just trying to workout how to do the upload of a workflow....
 
Many, many thanks for any help or advice you can offer.
 

When the screen is in mission control visual (i.e. all apps scaled down and visible in a single window) Alfred will open but fails to allow text to be typed into the app. Is this by design? If so, why? I am an avid MC user and have learnt to accept it but it would be great if it can be used. i.e. I use MC to see if an app is open and if not use Alfred to open it....or would if I could and didn't have to get out of MC visibility first.

Thanks.
