willum070 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Hello, the web search feature seems to be broken. When I activate Alfred and type in a defined keyword such as "google" or "maps", the web search UI is never toggled and all I see is local results. OSX Yosemite 10.10.3.

Thanks, Will Check in Alfred's Features > web search preferences to see if the web searches are enabled and that the keyword hasn't been changed... Also, if you continue typing past the keyword, does that work... i.e. Show Alfred and type: google bananas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willum070 Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 I did double-check the Features > Web Search preferences, all of the searches are enabled and keywords are intact. The behavior is reproducible, so when I type "google bananas" or "twitter mangos" all I see is local results, the search UI is never triggered. It's like the feature just doesn't work. So odd.

Would you mind showing me a screenshot? I want to see if the local results have any relevance to the typed term. Also, if you have selected additional items in Alfred's Features > Default Results > Extras (inc the Bookmarks), try temporarily unticking these.

RFinn Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) I'm having the same problem. Updated version and news version of Mac OS X Nothing happens when I type anything in the search bar. I have just purchased Alfred 2 and I have altered none of the default settings Any tips?

Vero Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I'm having the same problem. Updated version and news version of Mac OS X Nothing happens when I type anything in the search bar. I have just purchased Alfred 2 and I have altered none of the default settings Any tips? Hi there, Could you please give me an example of what you're typing, what results do show up in Alfred and what happens when you hit the Return key? You can pop an email to info@alfredapp com with any screenshots if you prefer, and I'll be happy to help you out. Cheers, Vero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
