Guess I'm still confused;

This plist/launch agent, when loaded. starts immediately and runs constantly instead of only running only at 9:59AM, every day. Am I missing something?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>com.rpoland.AlarmClockStart</string>
<key>OnDemand</key>
<false/>

The OnDemand key is obsolete and probably the main factor in restarting the agent continuously. The example I sent previously did not use it.

<key>Program</key>
<string>/bin/sh</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>sh</string>
<string>-c</string>
<string>/usr/bin/osascript /Library/Scripts/Universal\ Scripts/AlarmClockProStart.app</string>

</array>
<key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
<dict>
<key>Day</key>

<key>Hour</key>
<integer>9</integer>
<key>Minute</key>
<integer>59</integer>
<key>Month</key>

I think this should be:

<dict>
<key>Hour</key>
<integer>9</integer>
<key>Minute</key>
<integer>59</integer>
</dict>

</dict>
</plist>
