Trouble mounting an iDisk


  • Subject: Trouble mounting an iDisk
  • From: Jeffrey Mattox <email@hidden>

Sometimes this works fine and sometimes it doesn't.

set idiskName to "myUserName"
set passwd to "myPassword"
set afp to "afp://idisk.mac.com/" & idiskName
mount volume afp as user name idiskName with password passwd

If the iDisk is already mounted, I skip that code. But if the iDisk is not mounted, then sometimes it mounts in a few seconds and sometimes a spinning cursor appears with a dialog pops (it's not one of my dialogs) that shows "Contacting iDisk" and a timer counting down from 120 seconds (which causes an error to be caught in my script after only 60 seconds).

I have verified that the disk name and password are correct in all cases (by using a display dialog just before the mount statement).

Any ideas?

Jeff
