Hi there, just switched over from TextExpander and I miss the feature, that a snippet is only expanded after a trigger (space, ., , "to be defined") is pressed afterwards. I'll have a snipped for "ag" (Alles Gute (it's german)) and it automatically expands e.g. if i write "Tag". Dunno why. Any ideas? Best hubert

Hi there, I have a backup folder with BT Sync that is selectivly synced to the MacBook I'm running Alfred on. Now everytime I look for Application X in Alfred it shows me the local one and the one in my BTSync backup folder that... does not work, because it's only a link. How can I exclude a folder?

Hi guys, I'll move from 2Do to The Hit List but I havent managed to find a workflow for this. Which features would I like to have? - add tasks to the inbox - search for tasks - get a list of "today" tasks - cool but maybe too much would be to be able to complete tasks via alfred Any of you have build or seen a workflow for THL? Cheers Ben

Hi homever, this is the workflow i used to use with caffeine. This for ampethamine is what I'm looking for

Hi, sorry for that really late reply. My mac crashed (cuz of sophos i think) and i forgot about that topic. I've installed Win10 Preview to get into companys VPN. Works well. Ty!

Hi there, amphetamine is quite nice and replaces caffeine for myself. One thing I'm lacking is a possibility to use it with Alfred. Someone mind to write a workflow for that? I don't know how to (havent learned to code). Cheers Ben

Hi there, it would be cool to have a workflow that would let me disable and enable the on demand scanner of sophos. Only need it to get into my companys VPN. Any ideas? Cheers Ben

Hi Cortig, this is not changing anything. Just using Spotlight for mails then.

Didnt have the time / chance to change the keyword yet, will try this tomorrow. TextExpander is installed but there is no shortcut for "olkm" at all. I'll let you know if it worked. Cheers

Hi Corentin, this isn't working for me. I'd like to post screenshots but i don't get how to attach some. If i enter olkm it's all fine, even after entering olkm+space, but if i then start typing it wants to search with google. Cheers, hubutz

Hi Corentin, I tried to use the search mail workflow but it doesnt work. I can enter "oklm" and it shows up searching mails, but as soon as i enter something more it just tries to search with google. Don't know what I've done wrong. Could that be because I have a german OSX? Cheers, hubutz

Hi there, is there any way to show alfred on the active monitor instead of on the primary one? That would be really really helpful. Cheers, Ben

ya, spotlight search works fine. I should just use spotlight for this one.

Hi David, the last method (search only a specific folder, and it's subfolders) would be the version that i'd love. But tbh i do not know how to achive that. :/ My "_Documents" folder is btw on a USB-Harddrive and not in my user folder. Cheers

Hi there, i use alfred quite a lot and since i switched from windows half a year ago, but I never managed to get behind workflows. Related to my question in the support forums (http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/2472-is-there-a-way-to-search-inside-files/) I'd like to ask for some assitance in getting a workflow created. What i want to do: I recently scanned all / most of my documents into PDFs and saved them on my harddisk. Now I need a possibilty to quickly find keywords within that PDFs (bonus: it would be nice to see a preview of the reference, but this is not important for the start) (all of them are in my "own" "_Documents"-folder, so i just need to search there). Can anyone explain/show me how to achieve that? Do I need to supply more information? If yes: which? Thanks in advance, Ben

Thanks, good idea. Gonna do that right now

Okay, thanks. I gonna give this a try - havent used workflows yet; this might be to complex for me :-o But I gonna find out!

Hi, i'm actually trying to get paperless and scanning a lot of things with my new Canon P-215. My question is: is there a way to let alfred search my files? So I can find terms that are in a PDF but not in the name? If not: what are you using for that? Thanks and cheers, Ben

might be an issue with the language? i have 10.8.3 too (and a german installation of MacOS). gonna try this at the weekend.

Dunno if I'm doing something wrong, but "todo test!! only creates an unflagged task "test!" at my side, same with "todo test #today #tommorrow", this just creates the task test #today #tommorrow. I'm using the downloadable script from above and have a supporter licences. Dunno if i have to change something on my settings? Thanks for help cheers

Hi, not working for me - if i use "tres" it's just opening the system preferences for graphics?. Is this how it should work? Cheers, hubutz
