Thank you!

I've got Windows installed via Parallels installed on my machine, and the Windows versions of Microsoft office. When I want to launch Outlook, Alfred's first suggestiong is the Windows version of Outlook. My fingers are faster than my eyes and brain, and I select the first (wrong) option EVERY TIME. How do I tell Alfred not to look in /Users/<me>/Applications?

I found it. It was coming from Apple contacts, which wasn't current, and Exchange wasn't set as the default account. As soon as if fixed Contacts, it worked.

I use Busy Contacts, linked to office365, for my contacts. In the attached picture, you can see what I see - it's in the picture in white. When I search for this same contact in Alfred, a phantom address shows up. It's in the Alfred overlay. It just happens to be this persons former address, but in other places when this happens, there are phone numbers that have never been associated with people showing up, and other addresses to. Where is this address coming from? there is no other instance of this person in my BusyContacts, no duplicate, etc.

The issue I had was related to how I had set up / changed my workflow. I have busycontacts connected to my server based contacts account. Due to the inability to do one thing (I can't remember what that was now) I disable the server link to Contacts. And once the data on the computer got stale, it could not searc BC for it. I re-enabled the server based account in Contacts, and then all the searching problems went away. Thanks for the support!

I've been having trouble with Alfred & BusyContacts for a short while now, and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Prior to today, when I searched for Contacts using Alfred, It would show me the contact, and if I wanted to open it, it would switch to BusyContacts, but it would not show the contact - BC would remain on whatever contact was currently open. That is what I was coming here to fix. Just some background - .vcf files are associated with BC and my url scheme is busycontacts://show/{uid} and Open Contacts in Alfred is checked. I found this information http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/5550-busycontacts-integration/?hl=busycontactsand started to follow it to see if it would help. It says to uncheck Use Spotlight metadata for searching contacts. I did this, and now searching for a contact in Alfred doesn't search for Contacts. And if I re-enable it, and search for a contact, it tells me, in the results, that if I hit enter it will show the contact in Alfred. But it doesn't - it switches to BC, which doesn't show the contact I was searching for. Summary - Alfred doesn't show the contacts like it has been told to do, and BusyContacts (I know this is probably a BC problem) doesn't either. How do I get Alfred to at least show me the contact I'm looking for again?
