There was a brief happy moment right before Sonoma 14.4 when iCloud became surprisingly reliable, then they broke it again. For now I added Alfred preferences copying into my hourly cron script, which I use for situations like these.

I'm having the same issue. Since recently cannot update or delete workflows (maybe just one workflow, I'm not sure. It's definitely affecting the OpenAI workflow). I'm using an iCloud directory on Sonoma 14.4.1. When I open Alfred preferences file in finder (via Show package contents) and try to delete workflow manually, I get the same -43 error code mentioned here: https://www.alfredforum.com/topic/21535-update-workflows/?do=findComment&comment=111878. I deleted each file separately in Finder, and was able to delete every single file. The error only occurred on "images/about" directory inside the workflow (even though this directory was empty, since I manually deleted each file from it). https://github.com/alfredapp/openai-workflow/tree/main/Workflow To workaround this issue I used rm -r to delete the directories in the terminal. Then I was able to reinstall the new version of the workflow. This worked, however, the same issue comes back when I try to update the workflow. Alfred 5.5 [2257]

I figured out what was happening. The issue was that MacOS has a default keyboard shortcut "Select next input source" the same as the one I use to activate Alfred: Ctrl+Space. All you have to do to fix this weirdness is go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Input Sources, and uncheck those shortcuts. I think this issue is resolved now, but worth keeping here for anyone encountering this problem.

In the past, I had trouble with Alfred forcing the wrong keyboard language. I solved it by using "Force Keyboard". Later, I turned that feature off, and the issue didn't occur anymore. Everything was good. Recently, I've been running the latest Alfred 5.1.3 [2195] and everything was still good, until yesterday I updated to Sonoma 14.1.2. (From whatever previous Sonoma release was). The following things happened after MacOS update: 1. For some reason Sonoma couldn't see my second language anymore. In the switcher popup, it only showed U.S. However, in the keyboard input preferences, it had both languages. I had to remove and re-add the second one, and that fixed it. 2. However, Alfred now insists on always choosing my second language ("Force Keyboard" is set to blank). Even if I switch the language to U.S. with Alfred dialog open, it would still force the other one next time. 3. So I went ahead and set "Force Keyboard" setting to U.S. This didn't help. Alfred keeps forcing the second language. 4. Then, just to try it, I set "Force Keyboard" to the second language. This actually made Alfred force U.S. instead (what I wanted originally). 🤔 I think between updating to Sonoma 14.1.2 and me re-adding the keyboard input, something got mixed up. It could be a bug in Alfred, Sonoma, or both.
