Re: Apple Events from Windoze?



I'd never seen such a tool.

But it is not impossible in other way.

(1) Terminal
Connect to Mac OS X machine using a kind of telnet or terminal application.
Send AppleScript text to Mac with "osascript" command.


(2) CGI or XML-RPC call
If you can make cgi application or XML-RPC listener application, you can call them from Windows machine.



But....I recommend you to use remote desktop application such as "vnc" if you want to avoid the efforts.


Once, I and my friend made an iTunes control script via iChat by natural language (in Japanese).
It may be useful for Japanese language users.

Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but does anybody offer a Windows app
that can send Apple Events to a Mac? Specifically, I'd love to be able to
fire up iTunes on my Mac from my Windows laptop.


(I wonder if iTunes running on Windows uses Apple Events to communicate with
iTunes/Mac to receive and display remote libraries. Probably not.)

As you think....the answer is "No". It should be a kind of file sharing or simple message transfering service. Not a remote procedure call.
