sr105 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) Steps: 1. Open iTunes and Mini-Player, use it successfully 2. Close and Re-open iTunes holding down the Option key to switch libraries 3. Switch to another library on the same machine 4. Open mini-player, press Cmd-R -- it looks like it's refreshing, but it doesn't. the mini player is still using the old library information -- Work around: 5. Quit and Restart Aflred 7. Open the mini-player, Cmd-R to refresh -- the mini player library information is now refreshed properly -- Notes: - The path to the current iTunes library is *always* correctly shown in Alfred's preferences. - Refresh seems to simply always refresh the library that was in effect at the time Alfred was started Edited March 6, 2014 by sr105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reviewing the code, this may not be strictly necessary, so I've added a ticket to look into removing the caching which should fix this issue.

Andrew Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 - Refresh seems to simply always refresh the library that was in effect at the time Alfred was started If you update to the Alfred 2.2 pre-release b240, this should now be fixed. Alfred clears his cache of the iTunes XML path on reload sr105 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
