SourceURL/Address not working on latest MacOS Mon Dec 30, 2024 10:12 am • by jeddymn
I reinstalled everything over the holiday break, going to the latest MacOS (Sequoia 15.2) and the latest Hazel.

Now when I save files out of Safari none of the SourceURL/Address rules are firing. Is this a change to the way Safari works in the latest version or is there some system setting I need to flip? (Honestly I used Chrome most of the time on the old install and it worked fine, but I am trying to get away from Chrome.)

Select the file in Finder and do Get Info. Do you see a "Where froms" field under "More Info"?

I'm seeing the same behavior on macOS 15.3 beta and Hazel 6.0.3 and latest Firefox. More Info is blank for me now.

Did Firefox ever fill out that info? Can you confirm it worked with Firefox before 15.3? Also, can you do what I asked above and post the results?

Yes, it was working on macOS 15.2 on Firefox and Safari. Looking back on previous downloads, the More Info all appear blank now with "--". As a result my on download rules now report "Error during rule evaluation: Received error while trying to evaluate rule..." that was previously working in 15.2 and earlier.

If it's not showing up in Finder then the issue is on Apple's end. For whatever reason that info is no longer being applied to the files.

The latest macOS 15.3 (24D5040f) seems to have resolved this issue with Where From including the download URL again.
