d3v1an Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Hi, I've just reinstalled my Mac and Alfred because I had a hdd-crash. So from now on my workflows doesn't work. Even the example-workflows "movie" don't work.. I'm entering the keyword "movie" followed by a movie-title in the search bar - but Alfred just want to "google for movie test test" The workflows are enabled as well. What I'm doing wrong? Before I reinstalled of my Mac it worked without any problems.. :/ Link to comment
Vero Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 @d3v1an Did you either re-add your workflows or re-set to using the same preferences as before? If so, is the "Should I watch this movie?" workflow listed in your Workflows with the keyword "movie"? It sounds like there's no workflow with the matching keyword, resulting to falling back to Google. If you can provide some more details, and include a few screenshots, I'll be happy to help you further. Cheers, Vero Link to comment
d3v1an Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 Hey @Vero, thanks for your fast reply. Ya, I didn't change much preferences - just the preference: "Store typed query" and "Show latest query if within 5 minutes" and added the Clipboard function. Any other settings are the default settings. After that I wanted to add the workflow "Should I watch this movie?" from the examples - changed nothing in the workflow but it don't work. The other workflow what don't work is Dash - the original Workflow from the app Dash. So in the attachment I've put some screenshots - maybe you can help me?! Thanks in advance!

d3v1an Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 oh my god, I found the problem.. I've set up the synch folder in my dropbox. But Dropbox added (in the dropbox business accounts) a new feature "Smart Synch" what store the data only in the cloud. So the preferences were added but there were only in the cloud and not stored locally. I think Alfred wasn't able to get the preferences and so it got no workflows. After change the synch-Folder to an local folder its working fine like before. :-) So, much thanks for your help! Greetings from Germany Link to comment
Vero Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 @d3v1an Glad you were able to get to the bottom of the issue so quickly I'll keep in mind that Dropbox Business allows such a thing as cloud-only syncing, in case it affects other users in the future. Cheers, Vero Link to comment
tiffanzsolti Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Hi! I have the exact same problem, with like 5 of my 10 workflows. Any idea what the cause could be? Link to comment
Vero Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 @tiffanzsolti I'm going to guess that you're seeing issues with workflows that rely on Python 2, and you're on Monterey 12.3+? Apple removed Python 2 from macOS some time ago. If so, you'll need to grab the updated version of the workflows and, if these still rely on Python 2, take a look at this page: https://github.com/alfredapp/updated-third-party-python2-workflows#readme As for the Dict.cc workflow, it looks like the creator has updated it to use Go instead of Python so you can bypass the Python issue altogether by grabbing his 2.0 version https://github.com/dennis-tra/alfred-dict.cc-workflow/releases Cheers, Vero Link to comment
