Alfred E Neuman Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 When I enter the name of a known contact it appears in the list. When opened, instead of showing me the powerpac contact viewer, it takes me to the mac contacts app and the entered contact is not shown. Any ideas? FYI, I am about a week new to Alfred and just bought the powerpac yesterday. Link to comment

Launch Alfred's preferences to Features > Contacts and make sure the checkbox for "Open Contacts in Alfred" is ticked When you find a contact in Alfred's results, just press the Return key to show Alfred's contact viewer. Let me know how you get on. Cheers, Vero Link to comment
Alfred E Neuman Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 Thanks for helping. Yes, it was checked. Same results. Link to comment
Andrew Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Thanks for helping. Yes, it was checked. Same results. Is this only happening for a single contact? Or all contacts? If it's all contacts, my guess is Alfred is finding perhaps old metadata or a backup of contacts which don't directly relate to current contacts. It could also be that Alfred doesn't have access to search your contacts in OS X's security preferences. Link to comment
Krusty4president Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I have the same problem here. It seems that if the contact is marked as a company inside OSX contacts, it does not open in Alfred. Then it opens the native contacts app in osx but doesnt even open the right contact card. Can this issue be fiex so it opens in Alfred when it is going to be opened in Alfred regardless if it is a person with a name of a company? Link to comment

If you've setup Alfred to use OS X metadata for finding contacts, where are the [incorrectly / not showing] contacts stored when you bring up Alfred's contact panel and reveal them in Finder?
