Please open terminal and test the following command:

osascript <<END
tell application "Alfred 2"
  activate
  set alfredPath to (path to application "Alfred 2")
  set alfredIcon to path to resource "appicon.icns" in bundle (alfredPath as alias)
  display dialog "Test input:" with title "GitHub Login" buttons {"OK"} default button "OK" default answer "" with icon alfredIcon with hidden answer
  set answer to text returned of result
end tell
END

Does it open a dialog box or do you get an error message?

That worked. I got a dialog box. http://cl.ly/O3q8

Hmm ok. Then please test another command in terminal:

php <<CODE
<?php

echo exec('osascript <<END
tell application "Alfred 2"
  activate
  set alfredPath to (path to application "Alfred 2")
  set alfredIcon to path to resource "appicon.icns" in bundle (alfredPath as alias)
  display dialog "Test password:" with title "GitHub Login" buttons {"OK"} default button "OK" default answer "" with icon alfredIcon with hidden answer
  set answer to text returned of result
end tell
END');
CODE

If this also opens a dialog box, please insert some text and click "OK". Is this text printed to the terminal window?

Figured it out. I had renamed "Alfred 2" to just plain "Alfred". Switched it back & this all works now. I wonder if there's a way to workaround for others who might do the same?

Appreciate you taking the time to look at this for me.

Good point. I will search for a workaround…

With OS 10.8.3 it works for me if I rename the app to plain "Alfred". The process is still named "Alfred 2" in Activity Monitor (I killed the process before renaming and restarting the app), so tell application "Alfred 2" still works.
Maybe the behavior in Lion is different, but I will close this issue for now because it seems to be a rare edge case.
