  1.  

    The Airfoil Video Player is just an .app thats inside of the Airfoil.app bundle. You can add "$AIRFOILPATH/Contents/MacOS" to your Alfred "Search Scope" (Settings, Features, Default Results) and you're done.

     

    Another option is to write your own simple Workflow:

     

    1. +, Templates, Essentials, Keyword to Applescript
    2. Choose your keyword (no arguments)
    3. set applescript to 

     

    on alfred_script(q)
    tell application "Airfoil Video Player"
    set test to track title
    end tell
    end alfred_script

     

     

    Thats for the Applescript nice tip

  2. The app is buggy, those URLs don't work correctly. The courier (UPS, FedEx, etc.) isn't selected unless you use the keyboard to remove and then re-add a character from the tracking number.

     

    Works fine for me it picks up when you have a tracking ID on your clickboard also to populate the id feed

  3. What were the URLs? 

     

     

     

    Here are two URL schemes that are currently available in Parcel for both OS X and iOS:
     
    1) If you have a tracking number: parcel://automatic/empty/?CODE
    where CODE is your tracking number
    2) If you have a tracking number and description: parcel://automaticwithlabel/LABEL/?CODE

    where CODE is your tracking number; LABEL is url encoded description.
     

    Can you explain how I can put both the description for the parcel (LABEL) and the tracking ID (CODE) from alfred into the url to feed Parcel?

  4. Ah, ok, you can add this manually for now:

     

    1: Open Alfred Prefs

    2: Select "About This Mac" workflow on the left column.

    3: On the right side, double click on the script filter 'about' and it opens up those options.

    4: In the window at the bottom with the script look for:

     

     

    <items>
      <item arg="$MACHINE" valid="yes">
        <title>$MACHINE</title>
    <subtitle>System</subtitle>
    <icon>$MYMACICON</icon>
      </item>

     

    and right beside $MACHINE in the title, put your identifier so it looks like:

     

        <title>$MACHINE (6,1)</title>

     

     

    I'm not sure if I will add this to the workflow, as the workflow was really only meant to replicate everything in a 'Human Readable' way that the system menu version does. I WILL consider it though as at times even I can see it being useful to know the identifier.

     

     

    Thanks made the change. Please consider adding this to the next release!

  5. I am not sure what you mean. Macmini identifiers are in the xml ... for 6,1 and 6,2 which are the late 2012 models, for the icon. Can you be more specific?

     

    Is it possible to add the identifiers in () maybe next to the model

     

    Currently:

     

    Mac mini Late 2012

     

    with identifier:

     

    Mac mini Late 2012 (6,1)

  6. If your like me and have to check lots of tracking numbers your love this workflow.

     

    Your can download Parcel workflow from here

     

     

     

    I would like to thank Ivan the developer of Parcel for letting me beta test the OS X app (Mac App Store - Free) it works really well and syncs with iOS (iOS App Store - Free Universal).

     

    To track a tracking ID just type Parcel or Track then add your tracking ID. It will open Parcel.app with a new window with the tracking ID. 

     

    You can still use this workflow if you don't have parcel open as once you have centred the ID parcel will open.

     

    I plan to update the workflow with a open to add description from Alfred once I have worked out how.

     

    Once the tracking ID has been added to Parcel you will receive a notification.

  7. Good Afternoon all,

     

    I am trying to produce a workflow to track parcels and packages in the newly launched Parcel app for OS X. The developer has given me two urls that can be used with the app.

     

     

     

     

    Here are two URL schemes that are currently available in Parcel for both OS X and iOS:
     
    1) If you have a tracking number: parcel://automatic/empty/?CODE
    where CODE is your tracking number
    2) If you have a tracking number and description: parcel://automaticwithlabel/LABEL/?CODE
    where CODE is your tracking number; LABEL is url encoded description.

     

     

     

     

    Here is a screenshot of what the workflow looks like atm: http://cl.ly/P00C

     

    Can someone explain to me how to set it up so two piece of information can be added to the Alfred box and then put into the url to pass to Parcel?

     

     

    Kind Regards,

  8. The only problem Jack is only one of the workflows I use has had this added out of 38. Im gonna visit the site of each of the workflows I have installed to check for updates manually today and hope some have added support.

  9. Hi Jack How are you doing the Check for Updates I haven't seen anyone else have a system to check yet I hope Alfred gets a official workflow update system soon we have needed one since V1 

  10. This is really neat, thanks!

     

    One question - I ran the 'timein setup' and updated time.py to include my WolframAlpha AppID but I can't get custom results when I type in queries like "timein London". It just hangs on the "Please wait..." message. If I just type "timein" I can see the time in the default cities - just nothing for the custom locations. Any ideas?
