Just out of curiosity: Why not just have Alfred open the folder with the "Open File" action?

 

In a new workflow:

Add a Hotkey and set it to whatever you want.

Add an "Open File" action and drag the folder you want to open into the left pane of the popup, where it says "Open the passed-in file(s)"

then save

Then, connect the hotkey to the open file action.

Thanks ! It works. I thought that the "open file" action only work with files and not folders. Anyway, I'm curios why the commands didn't work on that script.

Hi, 

I made a simple an apple script to open a specific folder triggered by a hotkey, but it's not working and I can't find why.

It works if I use the Script Editor from Mac OS but when I paste it inside the   "Run NSAppleScript" window on Alfred it doesn't. 

Script:

on alfred_script(q)

 property the_path : "/Users/UserXXX/Downloads"
 set the_folder to (POSIX file the_path) as alias

 tell application "Finder"
    activate

    if front Finder window exists then
      set target of front Finder window to the_folder
    else
      open the_folder
    end if

 end tell

end alfred_script

Hi, 

I want to create a workflow to change the user in the Terminal app but I can't make the workflow wait for the Terminal ask for the password and just then write it .

I think what I need is a "wait next interaction from the computer" command or something like that. 

Hi,

I want to use a series of terminal commands, first to open the terminal ( if needed ), change the user ( log in as another user ), enter in a folder and execute a command to start a SQL server and then log out and close the terminal window ( if needed, maybe I can do it without opening it ).

  After that I want to do the same to stop the server, but following the logic is the same script just changing the start to stop.
