Ahh, I see. You were correct - the script was referencing the wrong location. Thanks @deanishe !

For anyone that stumbles across this and wants a fix, I simply deleted the nested if statement within the first NSApplescript (found in the workflow object window) – this made it work for me.

on alfred_script(q)

-- {sys1, sys2, sys3 } = { major, minor, bugfix}
set minor_ver to system attribute "sys2" 

set contacts_running to false
if application "Contacts" is running then
 set contacts_running to true
else
	-- Catalina (10.15) moved the location of Contacts.app
	if 14 ≤ minor_ver then
		do shell script "open -j /Applications/Contacts.app"
	else
		do shell script "open -j /System/Applications/Contacts.app"
	end if
end if

tell application "Contacts"
 set q to text ((offset of "Metadata/" in q)+9) thru ((offset of "." in q)-1) of q
 set phonenumber to value of phone of person id q
 set phonenumber to item 1 of phonenumber
end tell

if contacts_running is false
 tell application "Contacts" to quit
end if

return phonenumber
end alfred_script

ok sure, thanks @deanishe

Sorry for the lack of descriptive info.

Not sure why it's telling me the contacts app doesn't exist, as I can see it in my applications folder?

I guess I would need to update the applescript's path for where contacts is, but it looks correct from what I can see:

I know this is nothing to do with you (so thank you for your previous response), but if you have a moment; any thoughts?

I just deleted the workflow, redownloaded it, then ran @deanishe 's Fixum to update the workflow, and it still just opens FaceTime.

Not sure what else to do to make this work.

@pete826 what response are you getting?

Is it calling the contact via tethering or does it try to FaceTime them?

@deanishe I'm using Rocket to shorthand enter emojis (typing after a colon). The rocket app is not focusable, but it evidently uses the clipboard to paste the searched emojis.

Is there a way to mark Rocket's activity as transient?

Hi there,

This is not working for me. After selecting 'call' (contact), it simply opens FaceTime with no actions. Is this a permissions issue?

Of course I understand you're probably too busy to be adding features at random users bequest, but is there any way I can change the currency conversion format to the above?

My apologies, I realised yesterday that functionally it made no difference as I didn't need to hit enter.

I just think its visually nicer hitting enter as it means Alfred stops including non-relevant searches when activating the workflow (like listing the OneDrive application) amongst the OneNote pages.

I'm also a stickler for inconsistencies so I can become (unproductively) obsessed with them  ;D

The typical finance terminology for foreign exchange would be: USD GBP

The assumption is obviously that the first currency is set to one, however the workflow requires me to type 1 each time for a conversion.

Would it be possible to update the workflow so it recognises the first item in the currency pair will be set to 1 should the user not specify otherwise?

Hi there,

Before going on, I know Alfred automatically orders results in order of most used. However I'm experiencing inconsistent rules with regard to this.

I have both the Microsoft OneNote & Outlook applications installed on my computer, and when I want to pull them up it's useful that I type in the first few letters (e.g. "one" & "out" with no space), and both applications show first in results, so I can easily just hit enter on the first result. Furthermore, I have two separate workflows for searching each of these in Alfred. The keywords for these have been set to "out" and "one".

When I search with "out" followed by a space, Alfred will only list the Outlook search workflow, and not the application at all. However, for some reason when I type "one" followed by a space, the OneNote application always defaults to the first result, followed by the search workflow second. This is super annoying as each time I can't just hit enter like I do with the outlook workflow.

I've tried in vain typing "out" followed by a space many times and manually selecting the search workflow, to try to get Alfred to understand I'll never want to open the application if I've followed the term with a space.

Anyone know what I can do to fix this? 

Hi there,

I recently downloaded Vero's workflow, which seemed like the solution to searching / finding calendar events.

However when I return a result in the search, I receive a dialog box asking me which destination calendar I'd like to import the calendar file to.

I just want hitting enter to open and show the event within the macOS default calendar app. Is this possible?
