  1. Go to Alfred preferences → Features → File Search → Advanced → And check if "Touch folders after opening" is active. Activating this should make your file appear at the top after a few launches.
  2. +1 That's one i would use a lot too and yeah as i set up textexpander before i used "Space" too as an expander.
  3. Double click the script that is attached to your Hotkey and change "Alfred 2" to "Alfred 3". Then it works again
  4. Just made a workflow that is doing exactly what you want. Here it is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hzxpynhuubhi28b/Copy%20Textfile%20content%20to%20clipboard.alfredworkflow?dl=0 I set the search scope to find the files to the desktop atm. To change that doubleclick the Filefilter->Search Scope-> and there you can change the folder or add others Hope that helps
  5. Have you checked the debug window while using the workflow ? I just tested it and it works. Downloaded from here: http://www.packal.org/workflow/convert
  6. Go to your workflows and search for "rdw" and delete the workflows you find(those you want to use for Reveal Desktop stuff). Should look like this after: Then search for "google similar" and delete the workflow from deanishe. All doubles of them like with the rdw. Should look like this after: Then download the workflows again fresh from here: Reveal: https://www.dropbox....edworkflow?dl=0 Google search: https://www.dropbox....edworkflow?dl=0 Make sure that you don't install any old version! Import them and type "rdw" into alfred's window and hit enter. A notification should appear "Searching for similar...". Then you have to wait a moment as your background picture is getting uploaded. Depending of your internet speed this will be quick or yeah slow. After these steps it should work and if it still doesnt then i can offer you to fix whats going on over TeamViewer. You can check it out here: https://www.teamviewer.com/ I've been using it since years to help other people
  7. Delete the old workflows and then install the new ones to make sure nothing is going wrong. I tested it once again and it does work oO And you can use the keyword "rdw" to google search for your desktop picture. That's what you wanted right? You can combine everything together, but i was using deanishes workflow thats already there as its the easiest way. Just had to add one line of code to his and had to call it via external trigger Like i said you can wait for alfred v3 where you can just copy pasta everything in and there you go. Its way easier. And yes i have tested in v3 already and there it is easier. To remove the file opening you simply have to remove these lines: reveal thePicture activate in your RDW workflow. Then it looks like this: tell application "System Events" set posix_path to (pictures folder of current desktop) set picPath to (POSIX file posix_path) as string end tell tell application "System Events" tell current desktop if picture rotation = 0 then tell application "System Events" set posix_path to (picture of current desktop) set thePicture to (POSIX file posix_path) as string end tell tell application "Finder" set thePicture to POSIX path of thePicture as string return thePicture end tell else set thePictures to (do shell script "sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\\ Support/Dock/desktoppicture.db \"SELECT * FROM data\" | sed -n '$p'") set fullPath to picPath as string set rotationImage to fullPath & thePictures tell application "Path Finder" set rotationImage to POSIX path of rotationImage return rotationImage end tell end if end tell end tell I changed the links in my post before, but here they are again: Reveal: https://www.dropbox.com/s/to94y431a48tvnc/Reveal%20Desktop%20Wallpaper.alfredworkflow?dl=0 Google search: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bcthmdcc8up9h6q/Google%20Similar%20Images.alfredworkflow?dl=0 I changed the names and therefore they didnt get replaced by you. Therefore you had the problems i guess. These should replace the old ones now, but better you double check
  8. I combined the workflows now. It still shows the file in the path, idk if you still want that but i kept it for now. Here you go: New Google Images search : https://www.dropbox.com/s/bcthmdcc8up9h6q/Google%20Similar%20Images.alfredworkflow?dl=0 New Reveal Desktop Wallpaper: https://www.dropbox.com/s/to94y431a48tvnc/Reveal%20Desktop%20Wallpaper.alfredworkflow?dl=0 You can check the workflows. I used the external trigger to pass an argument to the google search from the RDW. In Alfred v3 you'll be able to just copy all into the workflow and combine it. Or use the old way ^^ Other things i did were adding lines like "set thePicture to POSIX path of thePicture as string" to change the path to ".../.../..../" instead of being "...:...:...:" so that the google search can use it. I also added the line "filepath = filepath.rstrip()" to the "url_for_image.py" python script to strip out any "return" that has been added to the path. I tested it and it works hope the way you expect, else let me know
  9. This will be way easier in Alfred v3, where you can combine as many scripts as you want. Either way you wait, or post both your scripts that you use so that me or someone else can combine them Cannot help you if we don't have the workflows
  10. Create a folder at the desktop or so and put 2 files in it. One is a .rb file and the other one is idk a .txt. Then search for those files. Check if you find both of them. If you don't find the .rb then add the folder to the search scope. Just to make sure you should definitely find it. Also use "*.rb" to search. If this all doesn't work then set up a workflow with a File Filter like this here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3h7g505xq58ojmg/File%20filter%20from%20keyword%20and%20open.alfredworkflow?dl=0 Another thing you should do is check what the metadata says with a tool from Andrew, which can be found here: https://twitter.com/preppeller/status/728486378942693376
  11. Go to Alfred preferences->Advanced->Rebuild OS X Metadata Just to make sure that nothing fancy is going on. Then try again if you still cant find it. Also try out to using the search option "find" like "find this_is_a_test.rb". If you changed the term then use your chosen keyword Other than that you can check your spotlight options. A few more things that might help you can be found here: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/troubleshooting/indexing/ Let me know if it still doesn't find it
  12. I've just tried to replicate your problem. I can find any rb file I'm searching for. Could you provide a .gif or a step by step of what doesn't work? Here is what i tried:
  13. The workflow thread is here: http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/1892-spotify-mini-player-control-your-spotify-library-at-your-fingertips-version-626/page-21 Maybe its better to be posted there so everyone who uses it can check it out and vdesabou gets the chance to maybe include them into it You could also write a personal message to him.
  14. Here is a small description: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/troubleshooting/indexing/spotlight/ Alfred uses the same metadata index as spotlight, but only searches in the search scope that is set. Therefore just add the folder into the search scope and you should be fine
  15. Didn't know about that. Always learn something new And yeah parallels is doing a few things weird but still better than others out there. Sadly they don't listen much to feeback they get :/
  16. Ah then i misunderstood you, i thought you didn't want windows bookmarks to popup overall. I'd say try out what Vero posted, other than that you could still try out to exclude the windows 1password and see if its fixed. After that you readd it. One more way would be to change the icon of the windows version, which wouldn't be that nice tho Else Andrew and Vero have to change the behaviour and force the icon :/ (if its possible)
  17. What you can do is, sending the shortcut you've set via Alfred to chrome then you're handling it with Alfred even if chrome is in the background
  18. I have 1password only for Mac on here but i have parallels too. If you don't want things from parallels to appear in Alfred then go to System Preferences->Spotlight->Privacy and pull there the 1password app from parallels inside. The App should be under "/Users/Yourusername/Applications (Parallels)". Else you have to check where the parallels bookmarks are saved for windows and add that folder. Hope that helps Oh and you can add pictures by uploading them by http://de.tinypic.com/for instance and then click on the little picture icon while making a comment to attach the picture
  19. The Alfred team just release a new update that fixes this issue. I have tested it so just update And soon Alfred 3 will be there for testing yay
  20. I can replicate it with any URL i use lol Seems like that Alfred encodes the URL for sharing, but it doesn't decode it when the URL is imported.
  21. What i usually do, when most of the workflow is the same, is to duplicate the workflow and delete what is not needed. You can also copy all of it step by step and then use the clipboard history of Alfred
  22. Have you checked this: https://www.alfredapp.com/blog/legacy/alfred-productivity-tips-using-custom-searches/ At the bottom under share your searches you can see what you gotta do. You can just call up Alfred and insert the copied "link" given by Alfred, press "Enter" and it will ask you if you want to import it. Here is another thread that might help you: http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/8728-what-custom-web-searches-do-you-use/?hl=%2Bcustom+%2Bsearch
  23. You can always reindex "Rebuild OS X Metadata" when something like this happens. Sometimes something weird is going on haha ^^ Check here when you have the Problem again: https://www.alfredapp.com/help/troubleshooting/indexing/
  24. I use BetterTouchTool for this as you can easily hook up your mouse buttons etc. with different OS X features like switching desktops etc. Alfred itself cannot do anything with your mouse input from what i know. The only thing you can do is create workflows with different hotkeys. Hope that helps
