This is a great workflow! Thank you very much for development and support.

 

I have not yet been able to take full advantage of its features due security limitations in macOS. For example, the system won't let you run the "k2pdfopt" script because it is "from an unknown developer". Ughhh...

 

How can I solve this problem?

After trying to run the script, go into system settings – integrity (or something like that). There should be a box offering you to run the script anyway. Press that and then try to run the script again. I had to fiddle around a bit with this with some workflows before I got it to work.

I use Mullvad, and their own app. I toggle it simply by killing its process with keyword kill (https://github.com/pstadler/alfred-top) and by running the app to toggle it back on.

Another set of emojis is on the way with no update to this workflow unfortunately. Looks like I'm back to using 

⌃⌘␣

I think yes 🤔

 

1. build in search for bookmarks (url) only.

2. build in opens url in browser, this WF opens in 1Password

 

 but maybe I am missing something and it is possible there is no difference...let me know !

Oh I see. Brilliant! 🙌

That's the difference compared to the built-in search in Alfred? 🙂

Will this be updated with the new emojis introduced with the latest Mac update? 🦾

This doesn't work on Catalina, right?

It works for me.

One of the workflow maintainers here. Sorry for the inconvenience! I haven't upgraded to macOS Catalina yet, so can't test myself. I've created a Github issue for fixing that, though.

I don't think there's anything you can do about it, but @deanishe linked to a solution (several workflows have this problem with Catalina):

This one was really important to me. When I upgraded to Catalina, it broke for me with a warning about malicious code or something. I figured it was a Catalina permissions problem of some kind. Here's what I did to fix it:

 

1. Cloned the git repository at https://github.com/iansinnott/alfred-maestro

2. I had to install go, which I did based on these instructions: https://golang.org/doc/install?download=go1.13.1.darwin-amd64.pkg

3. Following the instructions to build Alfred-maestro, I ran "make pack" in the Alfred-maestro directory.

4. Didn't work. Futzing around, I found that, in the Makefile, Alfred-maestro was to be copied into the workflow directory, but the build created alfred-maestro-master. So I changed line 8 of the Makefile to read: 

 

    @mv alfred-maestro-master workflow/alfred-maestro

 

5. Ran "make pack" again and it completed successfully.

6. Installed my new Alfred-Maestro.alfredworkflow. 

7. It worked! 
 

I did all this in terminal. 

 

Took me just a few minutes and now I am a happy user of Alfred-Maestro again.

 

I have not seen this issue with other Alfred workflows I use regularly. 

Thanks. Would you mind sharing the finished workflow? 🙂 

This broke with Catalina. I'm getting an error message saying that Apple can't verify that it doesn't contain sabotage software and that the developer has to update its "app" (workflow).

This broke with Catalina. Something about security and the developer having to update its "app" (workflow). The error message won't present itself again, it just doesn't work now.

I'm missing the flag for Åland, I noticed it's not in the free country flags website. Åland belongs to Finland, but is an autonomous province (with its own flag). Would it be possible to add their flag, or if not, have it represented by the Finnish flag rather than by the question mark flag? Thanks!

Alternative: make a Time machine backup of your old laptop, plug it into the new one, restore Alfred from the backup using Time machine app. I think that's how I did it.

This one doesn't work with Mojave 🙁

Cool! SIP needing to be disabled is a shame though. 😔

About 5x per day I need a access a file path on my Mac IOS 10.13.6.  I have the latest version of Alfred.

 

Following your instructions, I 1) find the file in Alfred, 2) I highlight it, 3) I press the right arrow, and 4) NOTHING HAPPENS.  No "list of file actions" appears; hence, there is  no option to copy the path to the clipboard. 

 

What do you recommend?  

 

I purchased the powerpack and ownloaded the workflow file you mentioned for copying file paths, How/where do I install it so that Alfred will copy the file path names to the clipboard and/or at least enable me to access them? 

 

Thanks for your help - 

Did you try tab instead of right arrow? It depends on your settings under Features ➡️ Files search ➡️ Actions.

@GuiB I did restart my computer. defaults read -g NSFileViewer gives output:

The domain/default pair of (kCFPreferencesAnyApplication, NSFileViewer) does not exist

I ran that other command, restarted, and now it works when I open a directory only with Open, but it doesn't work with Reveal in Finder. Still get the output above though. Good enough for me! Thanks!

You can set Marta as the default file browser with the command (inserted into the Terminal):

This did nothing in my case. Terminal seems to accept the command, but opening a folder through Alfred still launches Finder. 🤷‍♂️

After years of not being able to search my notes in Alfred I just found this workflow which works great 🥳:

http://www.packal.org/workflow/search-apple-notes

I also use this to search for notes, and the workflow @deanishe linked to to create notes. 👍

Thanks @bivalvegruff but I was thinking about a case where I would merge for example the last clipboard entry with the 9th clipboard entry rather than merging the X last entries of the clipboard. 

 

Will still happily keep using your workflow 👍

Oh okay, haven't seen a workflow like that, I think it would be hard to remember how many copies ago the clip you want to merge was. Just to be clear, the one I linked to is not mine, it's @luckman212's 🙂

I also thought this feature was not working before reading @Andrew answer. 

 

Is there a fast way (a workflow ?) to merge clipboard items already in the clipboard ? 

@luckman212made such a workflow, have a look here.

Great! I added a similar script in the same workflow, but with the ⌘ modifier, for when you want to edit the details before saving. It opens the list of calendars for you (I often add things to both my personal and my work calendar.)

on run
set the clipboard to "{query}" as text
tell application "Calendar" to activate
delay 0.5
tell application "System Events"
    keystroke "n" using {command down}
    keystroke "v" using {command down}
    keystroke return
    delay 0.5
    key code 48
	key code 125
end tell

  return "{query}"
end run

Great workflow! Don't know if it's being updated anymore, but I wish I could search for word without the order of the words being a match. For example typing "pocket youtube tesla" would filter out all pocket articles from YouTube with the word Tesla anywhere. Or "pocket youtube tesla downtown" would show the video "Driving through downtown with a Tesla" on YouTube. I guess what I'm trying to say is I really like Teslas.

Many thanks, Deanish!!!!

 

Here is the code I wrote... if you have any improvement, please let us know!!

 

Trying to make a workflow with this, with a keyword followed by a script – which coding language is this / should I select?

Nicely done, this makes the clipboard a lot more useful! I noticed that if I only have two clips in the clipboard and execute cm3 (more than I have), it messes up the clips, if you want to do some touching up. It's good as it is though.
