Absolutely no results beyond web search......how do I fix?


Recommended Posts

Today alfred just stopped showing results beyond searching the internet, I've tinkered around with the settings, and nothings working. I did the rebuild index option, reinstalled, cleared the cache, and alas nothing. I have no clue what to do since I use alfred about every 5 minutes, and I'm really starting to notice how much slower things move

TL;DR: Alfred won't display any results. Help!

Is Spotlight still providing results when you search it? Could you have gone to Spotlights Privacy tab and accidentally added a folder you didn't mean to?

No, spotlight isn't showing anything either

 

Odd. Alfred relies on metadata generated by Spotlight. Have you been to System Preferences->Spotlight->Privacy Tab and added any folders in there? If not, could you try creating a new user account and logging into it to verify that Spotlight works there and that Alfred does as well. Sounds like something quirky may be going on with Spotlight
