Thank you @Verofor a warm welcoming back to the best OS and the best productivity app of that OS. I'll change my extensions and this post when I got the time, probably later this evening. Thanks for the tip
-
After a few years away from MacOS, I finally bought myself a Mac once again. And the first application I installed was of course Alfred. Then I found a couple of extensions I made years ago for Alfred 1 and 2. This one is useful enough to share with you in my opinion.
The extension let you set up two different keyboard shortcuts - one for closing every background window in the front application, and another one for quiting every application (in the dock) except the front application.

Finally!
Thanks for the help getting there!
-
If you are on Yosemite - use this extension file instead of Alfred extension file from accountchanger.dmg. -
@Jason588 or anyone else - could you please test this version for me? http://cl.ly/YJES
I finally replicated the bug on my Mac after a clean install of Yosemite, and removed it. It should be gone on any Mac running Yosemite, but I have to get it confirmed from other users before I post this version as an "official" update
Maybe the delay is too short and somehow canceling the menu before it has time to fully implement?
You were absolutely right, thanks!
-
New update: Implemented @maskedjellybean´s bug-fix for ´msng´ in device list... A big thank you to maskedjellybean!
If you´re experiencing problems with this extension after the upgrade to Yosemite - please give me som info about it. As soon as I get a little information I´ll get on with the bug fix.
-
It´s actually working fine on my Mac with Yosemite, but had to implement the code from @maskedjellybean to get rid of the msng-error.
What happens when you use the extension? Nothing at all, or does it just stop somewhere in the process?
And last - is Alfred added in the list here: System Preferences => Accessibility and Security => Privacy (tab) => Accessability? If not, please add Alfred and see if that makes any difference.
That´s probably the one and only reason people are having problems with this extension on Yosemite! -
Hmm, it doesn't work for me... No action I set does really do anything in Safari for me (MBP 2009, Mavericks).
Did something change or is it still working for you guys?
I haven't updated the extension for 10.9 yet, but I'm (only) assuming it's related to the change in security and Accessability Preferences - you have to manually accept each application that uses GUI scripting (this extension does) in Preferences => Accessability. Here's Apples support page for this solution: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6026

Seems like I have to update a few of my Alfred extensions after the 10.9 Mavericks update, this one included.
I'll post it as soon as it's working again.

Thanks for the update 'maskedjellybean'
Haven't checked my notifications in this forum for while, didn't know about the bug/problem - thanks again!

Hi, I hope it's OK that I used this workflow to make a new version that grabs the URL from the browser by itself
-
This is a workflow based on the "Search and Share on Google+" workflow by the user Chris on this forum.
The only flaw in this workflow is that it doesn't grab the URL from the browser automaticly, with this update/workflow it will.
To share a URL to Google+ with this workflow, you do the following:
- Use the keyword 'gplus' and select 'Share a link on Google+' (or setup a keyboard shortcut) to activate the sharing of the URL from the frontmost tab in your browser.
- If you'd like to add a comment - write it after a space between the gplus keyword and the comment you would like to write.
Supported Browsers:
- Google Chrome
- Safari
- Firefox
- Opera
Creds go to Chris for this one!

Update 1.02:
- Added support for Alleyoop updates!
- Bug fix(es)
- If Finder is not the frontmost application, it's windows will be hidden by the workflow when using 'qall' - quit all applications except the frontmost!
-
New update (version 1.01):
what's new:
- Close all background windows (in the frontmost application) by using a keyword (closebw) or keyboard shortcut. The front window is left alone.
-
A simple workflow that makes it easy to quit all background applications on your Mac!
Use the keyword 'qall' or a keyboard shortcut of your own choice to quit every application whose not the frontmost one on your Mac.
The workflow won't normally quit your menubar applications...
Download version 1.0Download version 1.01Download version 1.02
- Update the workflow with the Alleyoop update workflow for Alfred - makes it easier to update this and other supported workflows in the future...
- hides Finder windows when using the 'qall' command and Finder is not the frontmost application.
-
New update - 1.02
What's new:
Make Library folder (~/Library/) visible, and hidden again.
Commands to use in Alfred:
Visible: library visible
Hidden: library hidden!! You can make it easy to update this workflow in the future by installing the unofficial update manager for Alfred workflows - Alleyoop!
- Use the following keyword in Alfred to search for new updates in this, and a whole lot of other workflows: OOP
-
Added support for updating via Alleyoop!
-
-
Added support for Alleyoop updates!
Download and install the Alleyoop workflow to search for new updates in this workflow, and other workflows supporting it.
-
Added support for Alleyoop updates.

New update:
This workflow is now merged with the iDelete workflow, which means:
It's now possible to delete all items in your Downloads folder by using the following keyword in Alfred: dd
If you'd like to keep some of the files/folders when using this command - color tag them in Finder before using it. They won't be deleted then.
-
Nice workflow, will be used a lot by me
Open/show/hide library and application support folders, plist search
in Share your Workflows
Posted
Keywords:
Open each of the three different Library folders by keywords:
library system (open a Finder window @ /System/Library/)
library hd (open a Finder window @ /Macintosh HD/Library/)
library user (open a Finder window @ ~/Library/)
library visible (make library folders visible in Finder)
library hidden (hide library folders in Finder)
appsup hd (open a Finder window @ ( /Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/)
appsup user (open a Finder window @ ~/Library/Application Support/)
If you would like to use keyboard shortcuts to open the folders - just setup the shortcuts you would like to use in the Alfred preferences.
Each shortcut has a keyword in the bottom (hd, system and user) - use these to identify what each of the shortcuts does.
Another useful feature of this workflow is the plist search - I hate how much time I have to spend finding a single plist file on my Mac, but with this workflow I can do this in a few seconds. You can do the same by typing the following in Alfred:
plist YOUR_SEARCH
