  1. Updated version with more features and support for Google Chrome - BrowserTabs

    • Move to the left / right tab with keyboard shortcuts (recommended shortcuts - Command+Alt+Left / Right Arrow)

  2. I do a lot of support via Twitter and several times a day I'll have to send tweets with more than 140 characters. I've allways been using Twitlonger to tweet more than 140 characters in one tweet, but it's time consuming. My solution ain't pretty, but it works!

     

    Dependecies and how to use:

     

    - You must be signed in at Twitlonger.com before using this workflow.

     

    Write the tweet in Tweetbot's tweet window as normal, but with as many characters you want to use. The next step is to activate this workflow by keyboard shortcut or keyword. 

     

    The tweet will be posted at Twitlonger.com...

  3. No problem! I love the fact that Alfred is so easy to extend with workflows, and even easier to share the workflows with others! There's no Mac application that have raised my productivity as much as Alfred has since it's relase in 2010... :)

  4. Descriptions: This workflow will let you easily (keyboard shortcuts) close all the tabs to the right or left of the frontmost tab.

     

    Skjermbilde_2013_05_11_kl_01_06_23.jpg

     

    How to setup and use: First, setup the shortcuts in the workflows preferences - I recommend using shortcuts like Command + Left/Right Arrow

     

    Then you'll use the shortcuts in Safari to close all the tabs to the right or left of the frontmost tab.

  5. This workflow let you activate and deactivate AirPlay Mirroring from Mac to Apple TV via Alfred.
     
    The user can choose between keyboard shortcuts or keywords to activate/deactivate AirPlay Mirroring.
     
    Air%20ON.png
     
    Air%20OFF.png
     
    Keywords:
     
    AirPlay On = 'air on'
    AirPlay Off = 'air off'
     
    AirPlay Audio on = 'audio on' (new feature)
    Internal Speakers = 'audio off' (new feature)
    USB Speakers = 'audio usb'
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Dependencies:
     
    • Add Alfred in System Preferences => Accessibility and Security => Privacy (tab) => Accessability (remember to unlock the hanglock in the lower left part of the window to be able to add applications).
    • Mac with support for AirPlay Mirroring
    • Apple TV on the same network
    • Make sure the (network) name of the Apple TV is "Apple TV". If not, look for solutions at the end of this post.
    • If you see the AirPlay icon in the menu bar, you're good to go

    If your Apple TV's name's not "Apple TV" - you can make the workflow work by using one of these methods:

     

    set valg to "Apple TV"
    
    ----------------------------------------------------- ** UPDATES ** ------------------------------------------------- 
     
     
    UPDATE 1.10 - new name: "AirPlay On/Off"
     
    Changes in version 1.10:
     
    It's now possible to also switch the AirPlay Audio on/off, but also to switch to USB speakers.
     
    Update 1.11 - Changes:
     
    Added possibility to use USB audio device as output - keyword: 'audio usb'
     
    I've also made it easier for the users to add their own device - just remove (* and *) in the bottom part of the code. Then you'll add the keyword you want to use, and the name of the audio device as explained in the screenshot below.

  6. !!! Follow this link to the newest version instead - this version supports both Safari and Chrome, and any markdown application you "throw at it".

     

    iA%20Writer%20Alfred.png

     

     

    This workflow has 2 uses in iA Writer - to format text links and images (html, IMG tag).

     

    Text links

     

    To format a markdown link - In iA Writer you select the text you want to use as anchor text in the link, then you use the workflows shortcut or the Alfred command 'link' (no argument). A textbox will appear, prefilled with the URL from the frontmost Safari tab. The user can change this URL before proceeding.

     

    When you press 'Enter' the selected text in iA Writer will be formatted as a text link in markdown.

     

    Images

     

    To insert a image in iA Writer with this workflow, you do as follows:

     

    1. First, make sure you copy the image URL from the web to the clipboard.

    2. Activate Alfred and use the following command(s):

     

    Skjermbilde%202013-05-01%20kl.%2023.47.4

     

    the number after the tag 'IMG' is optional, and will set the width of the image you format.

     

    Dependencies

     

    - iA Writer  running

    - IMG insert needs a pre-copied URL in the clipboard before executing the command.

    Skjermbilde%202013-04-26%20kl.%2014.33.5

     

     

    This Alfred workflow uses the implemented share function in Mac OS X ( 10.7 => ), and automatically adds the title of the frontmost webpage in Safari to the textbox. Works with both Facebook and Twitter in the latest version.

     

    The workflow includes 4 different shortcuts - two of them will share the webpage to Twitter or Facebook with the (article) title included. And two workflows will just let you activate the share to Twitter/Facbook function with a keyboard shortcut, no title included.

     

    Skjermbilde%202013-04-26%20kl.%2014.37.1

     

     

    Dependencies

     

    • Mac OS X Language must be Norwegian or English (if you want your language supported, contact me). 
    • Mac OS 10.7 or later

     

     

     

    Download TweetSafariTitleURL

     

    New update

     

    - added Facebook sharing

  8.  

     

    If you use more than one AppleID in iTunes App Store or Mac App Store, this is the extension for you.

     

    All you have to do is to press a keyboard shortcut when you want to switch account, this brings up a dialog window with all your AppleID's listed. Then you choose the account you would like to log in to, and press enter.

     

    Only works on Mac OS X with English and Norwegian language - but it also work in both iTunes and Mac App Store! If you want your OS language supported, give me a hint..

     

    Installation

     

    For AccountChanger to funtion like supposed to, you have to do some preparations first.

     

    1. Download and mount http://cl.ly/YKQF'>AccountChanger.zip 

     

    2. Run the applescript application with the name "Run this first!!!"

     

    This Applescript will Install and launch UsableKeychainScripting (needed to use Applescript with Keychain Access after Mac OS 10.7), and add it to the startup items.

     

    3. Open Keychain Access (/Applications/Utilities/)

     

    4a. Make a new keychain by pressing the following keyboard shortcut: Command + Alt + N

     

     

    4b. Give the keychain a master password and remember it.

     

     

     

    4c. Give the new keychain the name 'Applescript', and drag it to the top of the listed keychains, in the upper left corner of the window (like in the screenshot below).

     

    51773d9ce4b0484a551be15c.png

     

     

     

    5. For each AppleID you want to use, make one 'New password item' (Command+N). Each of the entries must be named 'eple'. In the 'Account' field, enter your AppleID (email address). And of course - the password in the password field.

    Download CloseAllWindows 1.3

    What's new 1.3.1:
     
    Two shorcuts - one for closing background windows without saving, and another one for closing the windows with saving, if needed.
     
    - Bug fix: a lot of windows did not close when supposed to - just a dumbass bug from a newbie
     

     

    What's new 1.3:

     

    Added support for the following applications (windows wouldn't close for these apps): Preview, Alfred Preferences and Tweetbot.

     

    Please, don't hesitate to update me on other applications this workflow won't close the windows in.
