The following code should throw no exceptions e.g. when pasted into the REPL. The solution in each case is the same: to wrap the call to the offending function or by-name parameter in the standard try/catch block.

import util.Try

val a = "apple"
def fail: String = throw new Exception("Fail!")
def argh: Try[String] = throw new Exception("Argh!")

// None of these should throw anything
Try(fail).orElse(argh)                                  // In Try
Try(a).transform(_ => argh, _ => argh)                  // In Try
Try(fail).transform(_ => argh, _ => argh)               // In Try
Try(fail).recoverWith{ case e if (a==fail) => Try(a) }  // In Failure
Try(fail).recoverWith{ case _ => argh }                 // In failure
