vanwoods Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Universal actions hotkey is not responding, tried several other key combos. * What you were doing when the issue happened Trying to file some stuff * Whether you were able to replicate it a second time by performing the same action Yes it is not responding * Include any screenshots that might help us * Include the Alfred version & build number you are using (don't say "latest" - you'll find a version number in the Update tab of Alfred's preferences) 5.0 [2064] * Include your macOS version 12.5 Edited July 22, 2022 by vanwoods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitor Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Welcome @vanwoods, Check if there’s a conflict with the Hotkey. To find Hotkeys in use by Workflows, go to Alfred Preferences → Workflows and click the (…) at the top (to the right of the Filter bar) followed by Show Hotkeys. For keyboard shortcut conflicts caused by other apps, ShortcutDetective (scroll down until you see the detective badge) may be of help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanwoods Posted July 23, 2022 Author Share Posted July 23, 2022 Hi Vitor, Thanks for your reply. There aren't any shortcuts conflicting. In Alfred version 4 there is no issue with this hotkey, it works perfect. Could it be something with the prefs or migrating from 4 to 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitor Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Temporarily create a new user account on your Mac, set up Alfred on it, and try again. Can you still reproduce the behaviour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanwoods Posted July 23, 2022 Author Share Posted July 23, 2022 Unfortunately the hotkey is still not responding on a new user account. Tried other key combos but they are also not responding. The normal hotkey to activate Alfred works fine. Computer specs: MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) Apple M1 Max I wonder if there is a fix somewhere?

vitor Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Make sure Alfred is present and with a ticked checkbox under System Preferences → Security & Privacy → Privacy → Accessibility. If it is already there and checked, remove it an add it again (macOS occasionally screws that up), then restart Alfred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
