Very handy script, but it stopped working for me with Mac OSX Mojave.

 

I found this alternative AppleScript which seemed to do the trick - just replaced the Run NSAppleScript section of the workflow and it works now:

#!/usr/bin/osascript

on alfred_script(q)
	
	
	tell application "System Preferences"
	reveal pane id "com.apple.preferences.Bluetooth"
	-- activate
	
	set the current pane to pane id "com.apple.preferences.Bluetooth"
	
	try
		tell application "System Events" to tell process "System Preferences"
			click button "Turn Bluetooth Off" of window "Bluetooth"
			
			click button "Turn Bluetooth Off" of sheet 1 of window "Bluetooth" of application process "System Preferences" of application "System Events"
		end tell
		
		delay 1
		
	on error
		tell application "System Events" to tell process "System Preferences"
			click button "Turn Bluetooth On" of window "Bluetooth"
			quit
		end tell
		
	end try
	
end tell
	
end alfred_script

 

Thanks @Sam Michel! That works perfectly! Very handy when I travel, my Magic Mouse is stowed away in some luggage and I cannot use the trackpad because my Macbook keeps trying to connect to the mouse! 

It works perfectly! I could even add a nice Anaconda icon to the workflow ? Thanks! Now I have one more reason to like Alfred - excellent customer support!

It won't slow Alfred down. It might give you a load of irrelevant results, however, depending on which file types you have selected in Alfred Preferences and how many of those types of files are in that directory.

 

I haven't added any custom file type to the default ones, in Alfred Preferences. For "files in the directory", do you mean only the files in the top-level directory anaconda2/ (just the 4 files shown in the picture) or also all those in the various  subfolders (about 280000 files)?

If you don't want to add the Anaconda directory to your default scope, create a workflow with Keyword "anaconda" that launches the application.

 

Nice suggestion! Is it easy to create workflows? I'm a total beginner, until now I just used the default ones, and one downloaded from Packal. I don't have my Mac now, but tomorrow I'll test your idea.

Hi, all,

I'm an enthusiastic user of Alfred 3.7 + PowerPack (best bucks ever spent for a Mac software ???). It revolutionized my workflow! I use the mouse much less now ? There is just one thing I'd like to fix. I would like to use Alfred to launch Anaconda Navigator (the app with the green icon below):

However, apparently the Anaconda 5.3 installer only created a link to the Anaconda Navigator app in the Applications folder, not the actual app (or so I think...the installation process is very long so I don't dare installing again). It looks like Alfred doesn't open apps which are only linkedin the Application folder. I could just add he folder where Anaconda-Navigator is actually installed, to the Search Scope. However, this folder is...colossal:

10.86 GB and > 280000 files (!!!). Now, if I add /anaconda2/ to the Search Scope, does Alfred index only the contents of the folder /anaconda2/ (good), or the contents of all its subfolders (bad)? In the second case, I'm worried that adding such a huge number of files it to Alfred will slow it down a lot. What should I do? I made a test, and it seems to work fine, but I just want to be sure I did the right thing. Thanks
