Where can I find my workflows on my hard drive


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I installed Maverick today morning, I made a clean install. Now I would like to find my workflows files on the clone of my old system (ML) to put on my new one.

Where can I find these workflows files ?

Thank you for your help.

 

I found my workflows stored in ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences/workflows/
 
They will be randomly-named folders, not files
 
You may also want to copy these folders to your new system:
  • ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data
  • ~/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-2/Workflow Data
These are, respectively, the cache and data folders used by your workflows.
 
Cheers :)

This is what I was looking for. Thank you, I'm reinstalling the OS and Alfred is a key part of my workflow.

@GatorMapi You should copy the entire Alfred.alfredpreferences file, not individual items within it if you're looking to set up a new Mac. You could also sync the first Mac to Dropbox, if you're keeping both Macs for personal use:

If you want specific workflows, you can export them by right-clicking them in the sidebar in Alfred's Workflows tab and choose Export :)
